 === Is this move to another server, another farm, or also another domain? ===
-The move is to a new server on a different mediawiki hosting platform.  A different domain (e.g., index.wiki) can be adopted after the move if desired but the domain will remain unchanged during the move.

 The mediawiki hosting platform we are moving to is owned by Top Level Design.  Top Level Design is [[Ray King]]'s company and is the [[.wiki]] registry operator.

 === Can we move to Index.Wiki or another domain name? ===
-Yes. after the move is complete. Index.Wiki is reserved by Top Level Design (the .wiki registry) and is available for use by this community if desired.
+Yes. after the move is complete.  See [[WikiIndex:ServerName]] for that discussion.
-=== If we move to another domain name, would the old domain be kept and forwarded? ===
-I'll let [[BrandonCsSanders|Brandon]] answer in more detail, but I assume that a requisite for changing domains would be [[wp:HTTP 301| 301 redirecting each page]] of the old site to the corresponding new site so that no search engine love is lost [[Raymond King]] | <small>[[User talk:Rathbone|talk]]</small>
