T331587 is focused on implementing the Wikibase REST API, but this work could be done as part of the IABot 2 release series.

The bot interface is set up the way it is for Wikipedia policy reasons.
I reviewed the false positive queue and can confirm that that link is in it.

Basically what we need to do is set up conifer.rhizome.org as an alternate domain for webrecorder.io (or vice versa). We've done this for other archive providers so not a huge deal. Noting this glitched edit that was reported: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tennis_Masters_Series_singles_records_and_statistics&diff=1137735504&oldid=1137068353&diffmode=source

There was another outage related to Cloud VPS' Ceph outage; we restarted the database server and the management interface should work again.

InternetArchiveBot manages whitespace in template parameters, not in sections.

I restarted the management interface webservice and it should be online again. Please confirm.

They could well be related, but for now I am inclined to treat them as separate bugs since whitespace management and template syntax management are separate parts of the code base.

It's specifically an issue with IABot's code and not related to the wiki templates. Basically we are identifying way too many templates as potential citation templates when they are not related.
I am sorry for the delay as we needed to track down the underlying issue. What is happening is that our system for identifying templates is growing unexpectedly large in size, and this causes the interface to break down. First we need to identify the source of this "leak," and then we need to clear out our template database. The interface will remain unavailable while we work on this.
