On this edit the bot turned a slash in the original URL into a "%2F" on several references which apparently broke those original URLs, and since the references were behind a subscription paywall and had the "url-access=subscription" parameter the resulting archive links weren't actually useful in any way. Is there a way to either prevent the bot from modifying the original URLs or to skip references that have the "url-access=subscription" parameter since it's just going to archive the login screen for those instances?

Turns out, slashes are perfectly fine, and shouldn't be encoded.
