Description

Hello,

I just realized http://www.senat.cz/eu_pozice_cr/zivotopis_paroubekj.php is down (used in cswiki as http://www.senat.cz/eu_pozice_cr/zivotopis_paroubekj.php?ke_dni=&O=), and that it is archived as http://web.archive.org/web/20100725084025/http://www.senat.cz/eu_pozice_cr/zivotopis_paroubekj.php. However, IABot didn't allow me to enter that, because the links don't match each other exactly. Would it be possible to ignore this check when the difference is only in querystring?

Query strings can drastically change page output. As an alternative, I have granted you the permission to override URL validation checks.
