The state of the wiki
#1
Miraheze did some server upgrades/migration yesterday that broke the wiki. I did edits yesterday (before the server stuff), but the wiki has been automatically closed because of no updates in the past 60 days.

I think I ought to have permissions to open the wiki again, but it won't allow me to do so.

I tried to report this in their bug-reporting place, but that also has bugs.

I've tried to report all of the above on the Miraheze Steward (moderator) wiki, but THAT system is also borked. 

They do seem to be aware now that this is a universal issue across much of Miraheze, so hopefully it'll get fixed in the next couple of days. If it's not fixed by Monday, I'll send them an email. One way or another, the situation will be resolved. The wiki isn't going anywhere!

What looks to have happened is the recent changes log wasn't transferred over, hence now the no edits error.

This probably happened for many sites, so maybe they will correct it soon.

I am on the Miraheze Discord now. There are a bunch of backend issues that they're fixing. MediaWiki is a huge pain to deal with from the backend, so I'm honestly not all that surprised that there are bugs after a server migration.

I appreciate everyone's efforts to keep the site in good working order.  It's easy to lose sight of how much work goes on behind the scenes to keep things going.

They closed the wiki once before due to "no edits in 60 days," and the count was off then too.

Looks like I was able to reopen it without issue. I think we're good to go now, but who knows --- Looks like they're dealing with a lot.

Yeah, it's pretty annoying that this happens. This time, it's because they migrated to new hardware and the Recent Changes logs got depopulated as a result.

It looks the core settings were adjusted, and the wiki is back.

They promised that moving to a new server would make things faster, but it is still slow.  Maybe it will speed up in the next couple of days.
