Those RFCs seem to have nothing to do with my suggestion. In Wikipedia's usual frustrating manner, it's unclear to me what was even going on to trigger those RFCs or why people thought it was a problem. For some reason they were upset with links to archive.is. But why? Was archive.is replacing working links with archive links, or something? Edit: From what I can tell, the archive.is bot was doing the same thing the archive.org bot Animats mentioned was doing. It's just archive.is didn't follow Wikipedia's policies and procedures.
