Awh, just happy to help! Wiki suggestions: I don't know who runs the site (Atryl?) but something like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki seems appropriate? Looks like that's what was used last time as well! Alternatively it could be hosted externally somewhere as well. Something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikia would do fine as well. I could temporarily create one on wikia and start gathering old data if no one objects? |

I wouldn't object to that if Atryl and the others are OK with it. My concern is do we know how long the archives stay? We don't want to lose anymore information. I would say we can start the organization of the wiki (I.e. tables of contents) and then start populating each page? |

I do not know how long those archives will stay live, for sure it is a good idea to rescue them. It makes sense that if the old site is gone, then the old wiki went with it. Happy to help edit an existing wiki or help create one! |

I would go ahead with the capturing and reclaiming of the old stuff, nad filing it into that wiki source. Better now than missing it forever. If we use a different wiki, we can copy/paste everything and its already in its correct format. We will kick ourselves forever if we miss out on that information. |

Well, I've spent a good amount of time trying to rescue the data. I'm not able to import it easily into a third party site such as wikia like i was hoping. Best thing would be if I handed over the archives i've downloaded to whoever's running the website here. I'd say the next step is to install mediawiki into the site and upload the zip files and get editing. Please tell me who to PM a link to the files I have collected!
