What wikistatus should I put when attempted to look at a wiki results in "403 Forbidden"? ("You don't have permission to access / on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.") --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] ([[User talk:EarthFurst|talk]]) 13:31, 4 May 2016 (PDT)

:On first sight one has to assume that the wiki still exists but that there are technical problems of hopefully temporal nature. Therefore one can not actually say anything about the status, because one can not access the fundamental information about it. So one would mark that wiki page with <nowiki>{{Down|~~~~~}}
</nowiki> or <nowiki>{{DownForMaintenance|~~~~~}}</nowiki> if one has reason to believe it a controlled interruption. Status will not change. After some time one can come back and try again, to see if the outage persists. How much time, is still to be determined. Certainly more than a day. Should the condition persist (maybe 3 tests in 3 month and always down), the activity status could become Down. Other stati would be unchanged serving as historical data. If the wiki was archived, Archived would be better than Down. [[User_talk:Manorainjan|'''<span style="color: orange;">Manorainjan</span>''']] 15:55, 9 May 2016 (PDT)
