As of Aug 19th,[http://rationalwiki.blogspot.com/2009/08/pretty-much-worse-case-scenario.html] RationalWiki (and related sites such as [[RationalWikiWiki]] and the RationalWiki forums) became inaccessible. Primary technical administrator for RationalWiki, Tmtoulouse, commented on August 19, 2009:

"Pretty much wors[t] case scenario:<br/>
The most likely date when RationalWiki will return is 6th September.[http://rationalwiki.blogspot.com/2009/08/when-will-we-be-back.html]
As is obvious to most by now the site is inaccessible, however, the bot server appears to be working. This means it is not just an internet problem, but a potential issue with the server having shut down. If this is the case I doubt there is anything I can do for now."

The most likely date when RationalWiki will return is 6th September:
 
"I am arriving in Toronto at 3:45 pm EST on Sunday, September 6th.(...)  If it is a simple solution the server should be back on by 7 pm EST September 6th. If there is something more going on I will post here by 7pm to let everyone know." [http://rationalwiki.blogspot.com/2009/08/when-will-we-be-back.html]


The reason for the problem is that RationalWiki hosts their own server at Tmtoulouse's domicile, and he is on a trip out of town.  The server crashed, and cannot be reached remotely.
