Wiki Still Around?

[parabellummatt]

I'm new here, please take my apologies if this is a dumb question.

In reading older threads on here, I keep bumping into people talking about "the wiki." I can't find any way to access it and the few times people have dropped what seems like a link to this wiki, it's dead. Is it still around today, or has it been taken down?

Many thanks to any respondents. I'm particularly interested in getting more load data for powders besides Accurate and True Blue, as those were cited as being present on the wiki.

We lost the wiki years back when the forum crashed. We are currently working on a full forum update, software, hardware etc. Once this is done besides updating the look of the forum we will start the process of re building the forum wiki.

It really sucks since there was a vast amount of information, much if it going back 30 years, is lost and likely un recoverable .

When? What year?

Crap, it's crashed twice. The last time? Maybe 12 years ago???????????? Please don't hold me to that.

After that and social media killing forums the place basically died.

In the last 2 to 3 years though there has been a renaissance in all forum since places like fuckbook banning and lack of hard data storage. In a way the Forum is now the Wiki.

I think that's the direction the forum will go more so instead of a separate wiki it will be part of the forum. Once all the updates have been performed I am thinking of creating a wiki section in each forum with pertinent data from that section.

I've pulled several backup from IA going from 2010 up through 2016.

Doesn't seem to be tons of info in the caps near the end.

I'll sample a few in the middle.

I went ahead and pulled all of the snapshots. Looks like most-to-all of the text is there. But some of the photos didn't get backed up.

Total download size of all snapshots, including a separate, second, copy of all the image files, = 37M.

I think it got most of the text. But the many photos, such as Stkcase.jpg, don't seem to be in the IA.

I can zip it all up and make it available to you or a designated representative so that you can use it to copy in to new pages.

Cool, keep this in the mix once the forum is full updated

Many thanks, best of luck to you all in restoring what was lost!
