Template:Cbignore
{{cbignore}} is a flag that informs participating bots (such as Cyberbot) not to fix a dead link. It is typically useful when a bot adds an incorrect archive link, it is reverted by a live editor, the bot adds it back again etc. This template tells the bot to leave it alone. In certain cases {{cbignore}} might also be added by other bots, see the talk page (of the English Wikipedia {{cbignore}} template) for more information.
