Like I said, the archiving option is still showing up in user talk pages, so I think the actual issue at the moment is that whatever changes were made to the dropdown menu for mainspace articles, it made it so they no longer display custom added functionality. I remember someone saying the archiving tool use is imported from the central community wiki (I think), and that it was already not quite recently updated when we first adopted it. I don't know think its original creator still maintains it.

;) No, I don't.

Other people have been maintaining it since I wrote it.

The underlying code probably still works. In order to display the menu item the script has to find the menu with a css selector and insert a html element in the same format as one of the items.

The dropdown looks quite different than it did before, so I presume Wikia has gone and completely changes the css classes and ids and format of the item. It's probably just a matter of someone updating the lines that define the.
