When given an archive.org URL, it'd be nice if citoid attempted to extract the original source URL and put the archive.org URL in the archive URL parameter.

archive.org support Memento (RFC 7089), so if Citeoid can do a HEAD request on the URL, rich metadata can be obtained from the headers.
I dont know if there is a Memento client in Node.js, but example code can be found in https://github.com/mementoweb/py-memento-client and probably https://github.com/mementoweb/mediawiki .

Thanks @jayvb! If there's no suitable Node library we can build one...
We've already done some of that already with different types of metadata (
see http://github.com/wikimedia/html-metadata )
