'''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.

== Versions ==

* 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.

* InternetArchiveBot approval request link ([[Property:P40|P40]])
* Some way to document whether a wiki allows global bots or not
** I think that is implied with having a P39 of "global approval"

Updates:
* Tracking Librarybase IDs in Airtable. Next task is to update existing records that already have Librarybase entries, and create new items for those that don't. [[User:Harej|Harej]] ([[User talk:Harej|talk]]) 03:35, 23 October 2025 (UTC)

== 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
