Lack of provision for archive url edit

This template does not appear to have provision for an archive URL. The link provided at Rowing at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Qualification has been broken by changes made by FISA at their website, but the template does not apparently allow for an archive url parameter to be added, which is what I was trying to do. --David Biddulph (talk) 09:08, 1 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

As a temporary fix I've defined a second version of the ref, with the archive url, but there ought to be a cleaner way of doing it. --David Biddulph (talk) 09:18, 1 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Can't you just put the archive url into the url field of the template? Rodney Baggins (talk) 06:47, 2 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
I have added |archive-url=, |archive-date= and |url-status= to the template and updated the /doc. Primefac (talk) 10:35, 2 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Primefac: Thanks, but I tried it in this edit, and it didn't seem to work. Did I do something wrong? --David Biddulph (talk) 12:44, 2 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
Nested bracket issue. Fixed now. Primefac (talk) 17:42, 2 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
