"Rescuing"I appreciate your work in creating Internet Archive links, but I do question the word "rescuing", in this edit, since all the original links were in fact functional. Is that word yours, or is it something that is standard with IABot? I ask because I think that "protecting" is a much better word when it comes to currently functioning links. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 05:10, 23 December 2019 (UTC) Hi there, I'm HasteurBot.

ArbCom 2020 Elections voter messageIABot when it's not neededI see you're doing a lot of IABot-related edits, but in articles that don't seem to need it. My understanding is current consensus is not to "rescue" sources unnecessarily as it bloats the page. If we decide to include the archive links for every page, a bot should do it. Note that "rescuing" doesn't actually do any archiving -- that's already done by the bot behind the scenes. It just moves the archive link that already exists in the bot's database into the article. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:21, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

So, I use it CC0 instead. Later, it went bad minutes ago about copyright images because CC0 is not possibly acquired for the images or just a public domain. I'm no help for uploading for images anymore. In case, it is possible to redo the license from CC0 into "fair use" again? If not, I'd appreciated you at lot about that.
