==Temporary loss of service==
==Temporary loss of service==
On Aug 19th, RationalWiki (and related sites such as [[RationalWikiWiki]] and the RationalWiki forums) became inaccessible.[http://rationalwiki.blogspot.com/2009/08/pretty-much-worse-case-scenario.html] The stated reason is that a problem has occurred with the server, most likely due to a MySQL connection error. RationalWikian is hosted on its own private server at Tmtoulouse's domicile, who is on a trip out of town and is unable to attend to the problem. Although RationalWiki has nightly backups stored on a separate server, it is hoped they will not be needed. The most likely date when RationalWiki will return is 6th September.[http://rationalwiki.blogspot.com/2009/08/when-will-we-be-back.html]

During the "crisis", RationalWikians have found a temporary home to discuss their drinking habits and love of the goat at [[Teflpedia]], where roughly 30-40 RationalWikians have signed up to endure the inaccessibility of their home wiki. A more complete list of places to find RationalWikians can be found [http://teflpedia.com/index.php?title=RW_contact_points here].
