…rror novelbin.com and novelbin.me no longer resolve: every authoritative resolver (Google DoH, Cloudflare DoH, local) gets SERVFAIL from lame delegation - all six Cloudflare nameservers for the zones REFUSE queries - so the Novel Bin plugin died as an opaque 'fetch failed' for every user (issue lnreader#2549). The site went dark in mid-2026 and no domain serving this CMS's markup remains; verified candidates are parked pages or a JS SPA that the template cannot parse, while sibling ReadNovelFull on the same template passes all four live checks. - flag the novelbin source down/downSince in sources.json, following the multisrc down convention from chore: Source Cleanup (lnreader#1977) - add an optional downNote carrying the successor pointer - make the readnovelfull template fail fast with the recorded reason (and note) from popularNovels/parseNovel/parseChapter/searchNovels instead of letting each call die as an unactionable network error; sources without the flag are untouched - bump versionIncrements so installed copies update to 2.2.3 AI-authored change (pi coding agent). Not human-reviewed. Closes lnreader#2549
…r only Review scope narrowing: novelbin.xyz (the candidate successor) was verified incompatible with this template (SPA shell, no server-rendered list/detail/ chapter markup, novel pages walled with HTTP 429), so the earlier template fails-fast/downNote machinery is dropped and the change is now only the established multisrc down marker plus the required version increment. AI-authored change (pi coding agent). Not human-reviewed.

Superseded by #2793, which replaces the dead novelbin.com entry with a working novelbin.xyz plugin (same id), so marking Novel Bin as down is no longer needed. |

Change
Closes #2549 ("Plugin fetching failed" — Novel Bin). One-file diff: the
novelbinentry inplugins/multisrc/readnovelfull/sources.jsonis marked down per the repo's down-marker convention ("down": true+"downSince"), withversionIncrements1 → 2 (generated plugin 2.2.2 → 2.2.3). An earlier revision also reworkedtemplate.tsto fail fast; that was dropped at review scope-narrowing, sotemplate.tsis byte-identical to base and no runtime behavior ships — this records the outage, it does not restore it. Readers after a working catalogue should use theNovel Arrowplugin, already shipped here.Diagnosis:
novelbin.comno longer resolves — local resolver failure plus SERVFAIL/REFUSED (lame delegation) on Google and Cloudflare DoH — so every plugin request dies as a network error. The siblingReadNovelFullsource on the same template passes all four live checks, so the template is healthy; only novelbin's dead domain diverges. No surviving domain can restore it:novelbin.xyzis a different stack (identical 11,976-byte SPA shell on every route, zero list markup, HTTP 429 /error code: 1027on chapter detail),.biz/.latare parked pages,.cois a redirect lander, and.ccno longer resolves.Verification
build:multisrcregenerates cleanly with the down marker and v2.2.3 carried through;build:compileexits 0; prettier clean; lint identical to base.check:pluginon NovelBin reports INCONCLUSIVE on the dead domain (honest, not forced);ReadNovelFullpasses all four steps as the shared-template regression run (20 popular, 1 search, 3816-chapter novel, 13147-char chapter).Caveat: Novel Bin novels still cannot load — the site is gone and nothing in this repository changes that. AI-authored change, no human review.
