It would be helpful if the main link was to the original source, and the archive link in the body.

Added the main link. May be paywalled for most people.

Just make the main link a New York Times gift article link. Those aren't paywalled.

Will do next time.

Not of the main link is paywalled.

Even if the source is paywalled. Having the original source in the main URL field would have let apps immediately show what domain the article comes from, let the bot do its bias check, and let various spam control systems do their job.
