True, but when adding an archive link with square brackets, these characters should be replaced by %5b and %5d because otherwise the link won't work.

Link Investigator is usually activated through the key F4. If a user attemps to refresh the page with F5 but instead accidentially presses F4, the tool is activated. Without a proper blocklist for Wikipedia this causes problems on watch lists, since the tool goes on to check (almost) every link.

Note how the page for https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciaal:RecenteWijzigingenGelinkt/Sjabloon:Citeer_web contains no content. If you try with a target that has content, you should get a 200.
If you specify a target, i.e. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChangesLinked?target=Main+Page, the HTTP response is a 200.

@Aklapper I tried with Postman on the same computer, and that returned HTTP 404.

I didn't see the parameter was double. Thanks for looking so closely. :)

How can a wiki change the behaviour?
The arcive.org link is a good archive. Only the bot didn't find this link. Why not?

Please ignore 1, it works better now.

Declining number 1. There's a reason why the button disables when clicked on.
-> make it more clear then.

I would like to know WHY this URL was seen as dead. The false positive reporter doesn't tell me that.

We chatted about this, and we came up with an idea: if we can disable converting the encoding for existing archive.org URLs, I can live with this solution. I propose to call this "convert_archives_encoding=0" but feel free to change the parameter name.
You could afterprocess it, when it comes out of the external library. I will ask others for opinions on this matter.
When reading the URLs, you santize the URL to store it in the database. You write that sanitized URL back to Wikipedia, but with a few exceptions:
- use + instead of its encoded variant
- use = instead of its encoded variant (unless you really want to comply with RFC standards)
OK

I still have this. I used the Dutch Wikipedia to login. I tried Chrome as well, and as a related issue I get the same error for an URL that has already been whitelisted when I click the blue SUBMIT button.

We'll see whether it stays :)
That would be nice as well.
My mistake, it seems to work now. I will turn on InternetArchiveBot again.
I have disabled InternetArchiveBot for now. This is too important. On the Dutch Wikipedia, there are a lot of archive.is links like this.

Order is incorrect. Plural for "bronnen" is also incorrect. See https://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...Something_to_Be_%28single%29&type=revision&diff=49365878&oldid=37572390
