;''Moving from MoinMoin to ikiwiki in 2013
{{Cquote|'''Web services status
We figured out that <tt>freedesktop.org</tt> was hosting about 500000 wiki pages full of [[spam]].  We've '[[:Category:Spammed|despammed]]' the wikis by moving any page with 'http' in the contents out of the way.  Secondarily, we've [[:Category:ReadOnly|eliminated the ability to login]] to the wiki as our attempts to disable account creation have never worked correctly.
 
We want to move from a [[:Category:Web|web]]-based wiki to a [[:Category:Git|git]]-based wiki, the plan is to use [[:Category:ikiwiki|ikiwiki]] for this.  We won't have any [[:Category:Cgi|cgi]]-based [[edit]]ing, the only way to get changes into a wiki will be to push changes to a git repository which will have a hook to rebuild the visible version.
 
In the meantime, you can recover pages that were accidentally removed by using the 'mv-page' script in /srv on <tt>annarchy.freedesktop.org</tt>.  Anyone in the group associated with the wiki should be able to recover pages.  I think the script is pretty safe, but please be careful.
 
And, if you're clever, you can update wiki pages by manually constructing them in the moin/data/pages directories (that's how this page was edited).}}
