Try Muhurtha Naal on en Wiki. I just tried, and failed.

While I appreciate Cyberpower678 for taking notice of this and trying to fix it, it turns out IABot now ignores the cbignore template and adds broken archives, as seen here.

While the cbignore and broken archive issues have been fixed, the archive.today issue remains. Cyberpower678, have you conceded it cannot be fixed? But IABot works only if the archive.today links are in long form, and I now know how to generate them (through the share button), so I guess that's it. If only there was a Wiki different gadget that could convert short form links to long form...
