unfit is for displaying square and bare archive URLs, when the underlying source URL is "unfit". It is not the same as template {{usurped}}, see below when to use "unfit" vs "usurped".
- Square URL:
{{unfit|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/2011010101/http://unfit-url.com Example]}} - Bare URL:
{{unfit|1=https://web.archive.org/web/2011010101/http://unfit-url.com}}
The template wraps it so future processes are aware it is an unfit URL. This prevents tools like IABot, reFill and Citation bot (and humans) from converting square or bare archive URLs into a CS1|2 template and thus accidentally re-activating the unfit URL.
It is important to use 1= otherwise any "=" in the URL itself will cause a problem.
