'''InternetArchiveBot''' has been operated by the Internet Archive since 2015, based on the earlier Cyberpower II. James Hare has been supporting the InternetArchiveBot effort since February 2020.

== Generations ==

* InternetArchiveBot 1: ?
* InternetArchiveBot 2: The current version, flexibly supports many different kinds of wikis
** Cycles through each wiki in alphabetical order
** Supports all manner of wiki templates (or lack thereof)
* InternetArchiveBot 3: The future
** Event-centric workflow: link found dead, usage throughout wikis searched, replaced

== Tracking deployments ==
Goal: move out of Airtable. Track deployment information in Librarybase.

Needed data fields:

* Wiki database code
* Wiki full name
* Status
** Defined in Management Interface
** Deployment Candidate
** Pending Approval Request
** Seeking Bot Approval
** Stalled Request
** Issues
** Stalled Test
** Test Operation
** Ongoing Operation
** Shelved
* Wiki host (like Wikibase World has)
** Wikimedia
** Miraheze
** Weird Gloop
** independent wiki
* Wiki family
** Wikipedia
** Wiktionary
** Wikisource
** Wikinews
** Wikiquote
** Wikiversity
** Wikivoyage
** Wikibooks
* URL
* InternetArchiveBot approval status
** Local approval for fixing links
** Local approval for linking to books
** Global approval for fixing links
* InternetArchiveBot approval request link
* Some way to document whether a wiki allows global bots or not

== Deployments ==

* Wikimedia
** Ongoing
* Miraheze
** On a handful of wikis, broken on a few wikis due to those wikis changing domain names
** OAuth grants are broken as well
** '''Idea:''' account creator script that uses a limited-scope bot password to log in as InternetArchiveBot and force local account creation for a specified wiki
* Weird Gloop
** Only four wikis
** The reason we're not deployed there is because they want to be able to have dry runs that show the edits without actually making them
