The WIKI is broken and it is really annoying

Post by StrontiumDog »

Hi,

Title says it all, myself and at least one other I know are constantly getting errors from the wiki. I know the wiki part isn't managed by the main team here, but it really needs to be fixed. Its so bad that I have been seriously thinking about starting a new site just to host a new version of the wiki. The problems I have, in no particular order:

1. No way to reset your password if you forget it.
2. This error that occurs every time I edit a page:

I have tried mailing the maintainer of the wiki, but I never get any responses.

Stronty.

Yup, it worries me too about the possibility of one day losing of all the data we've added.

If you're at all worried about losing data and want a private copy of it, http://www.ranulf.net/ps3/wikigrab.tgz has a copy of all the current data and the script I just knocked together to snarf it all.

[edit] Forgot to mention that I've also never seen these errors.
