The archives aren’t automatically added to the reference text in the articles. There’s an IABot you can feed particular articles to that will add it to reference templates. Also, if the IA archiving fails to work, too bad. (e.g. how it can’t even archive Twitter any more.)

some of these guys get in touch with me from time to time, apparently i have a rep as a sneerer (I am delighted)

(i generally don’t have a lot specific to add - I’m not that up on the rationalist gossip - except that it’s just as stupid as it looks and frequently stupider, don’t feel you have to mentally construct a more sensible version if they don’t themselves)
