Description

If possible.. an API request that returns a list of URLs given an article name, where the URLs were modified by IABot (archive added, deleted or modified).

This would allow creating a tool that would be a replacement for the talk page notices for anyone who wanted this information.

IABot doesn't log internally to this detail. However you can already use the API to feed it a page ID which will return a list of URLs IABot is aware of on that page.

Now that talk page notices are disabled, there is probably no need for this anymore.
