I believe that’s what InternetArchiveBot <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:InternetArchiveBot> is for, but apparently at the moment it only updates references when they break; at least, that’s how Ymblanter summarized the request for permissions <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Requests_for_permissions/Bot/InternetArchiveBot>. Also, its contributions <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/InternetArchiveBot> show no edits since October 29, I’m not sure if that’s a problem.
