Also, when a bot is enabled on a wiki for the first time, it can take potentially days for the first edit to be made. </p><p>If the bot has run on your wiki before, it is possible that the bot has been disabled server-side. When this happens, it is because there is a bug that is preventing InternetArchiveBot from working effectively on that wiki. Please wait for service to return to that wiki. Also check to make sure the bot is not <a href="/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/InternetArchiveBot" title="Special:CentralAuth/InternetArchiveBot">blocked on your wiki</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="I_need_to_manually_set_a_domain_or_URL_as_alive_or_dead" data-mw-thread-id="h-I_need_to_manually_set_a_domain_or_URL_as_alive_or_dead"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-I_need_to_manually_set_a_domain_or_URL_as_alive_or_dead"></span>I need to manually set a domain or URL as alive or dead<span data-mw-comment-end="h-I_need_to_manually_set_a_domain_or_URL_as_alive_or_dead"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=InternetArchiveBot/Problem&amp;action=edit&amp;section=8" title="Edit section: I need to manually set a domain or URL as alive or dead"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-I_need_to_manually_set_a_domain_or_URL_as_alive_or_dead","replies":[]}}--></div> <ul><li><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://iabot.wmcloud.org/index.php?page=manageurlsingle">Manage URL data</a></li></ul> <p><ins id="Other_bugs_or_feature_requests"></ins> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Other_bugs_or_feature_requests" data-mw-thread-id="h-Other_bugs_or_feature_requests"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Other_bugs_or_feature_requests"></span>Other bugs or feature requests<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Other_bugs_or_feature_requests"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=InternetArchiveBot/Problem&amp;action=edit&amp;section=9" title="Edit section: Other bugs or feature requests"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Other_bugs_or_feature_requests","replies":[]}}--></div> <ul><li><a class="external text" href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/1/?title=Edit%20this%20text--%20Describe%20the%20problem%20you%20are%20having&amp;description=**Affected%20wiki(s)**%3A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A**Diff(s)%20(if%20applicable)**%3A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A**What%20is%20happening%3F**%3A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A**What%20should%20happen%20instead%3F**%3A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A**List%20of%20steps%20to%20reproduce**%20(step%20by%20step%2C%20including%20full%20links%20if%20applicable)%3A%0D%0A*%20%0D%0A*%20%0D%0A*%0D%0A%0D%0A**Other%20information**%3A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A&amp;projects=InternetArchiveBot&amp;subscribers=Cyberpower678&amp;priority=triage">Report bug or request feature</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/User_talk:InternetArchiveBot" title="User talk:InternetArchiveBot">Contact us in your language</a> (You may get a faster response if you post in English or German.)</li></ul> <!-- NewPP limit report Parsed by mw‐web.codfw.main‐84d8f4b96‐ml2sm Cached time: 20241116150701 Cache expiry: 2592000 Reduced expiry: false Complications: [show‐toc] DiscussionTools time usage: 0.013 seconds CPU time usage: 0.422 seconds Real time usage: 0.634 seconds Preprocessor visited node count: 192/1000000 Post‐expand include size: 5279/2097152 bytes Template argument size: 60/2097152 bytes Highest expansion depth: 5/100 Expensive parser function count: 0/500 Unstrip recursion depth: 0/20 Unstrip post‐expand size: 13198/5000000 bytes Lua time usage: 0.024/10.000 seconds Lua memory usage: 713251/52428800 bytes Number of Wikibase entities loaded: 0/400 --> <!-- Transclusion expansion time report (%,ms,calls,template) 100.00% 106.438 1 -total 67.69% 72.049 1 Template:InternetArchiveBot_header 61.49% 65.449 1 Template:Navigation_tabs 29.33% 31.223 1 Template:Ombox 2.46% 2.616 1 Template:Anchor --> <!-- Saved in parser cache with key metawiki:pcache:idhash:11392187-0!canonical and timestamp 20241116150701 and revision id 27548806.
