Awhile ago, I announced a plan to convert Pandora's Tale Wiki from MediaWiki to git. The main reasons are
1) In an era of increasing censorship, a wiki about queerness and fighting fascism should be available in a format that is easy to edit offline.
2) I think it will be easier to maintain.

Today, I have taken the first public step in that process. You can see a git-ified version of the wiki here:
https://git.average.name/1something/PTW
Hosting is provided by @[email protected] : That's right, a Helper is hosting the wiki about Helpers. She might, or might not, provide our permanent home.

Two things need to happen before I can declare this version of PTW the "main" one. First, I need to verify that this format is actually easier to maintain. That means waiting for @[email protected] to release a new chapter so I can see how hard it is to update.

Second, (almost?) every page currently has formatting errors due to the conversion. I need to fix all of them.

Until I complete both of those steps, the MediaWiki version will remain at https://pandorastale.wiki .

Liebe Lehrkräfte und #OER Fans! Am Montag findet das nächste #ZUMinar statt. THEMA: Unterricht und freies Bildungsmaterial über #Wikis verfügbar machen. Beispiel: #Lernpfad 500 Jahre Bauernkrieg mit Matthias Scharwies! #OERde #OE RNS #Moodle #OER #freieBildung #H5P #BlueLZ #FediLZ #InstaLZ

Today, I am announcing plans for the biggest change to Pandora's Tale Wiki since its founding: I am going to port the wiki away from MediaWiki and convert it to a git repository of text files. This conversion process may not be easy, but it is necessary. If we continue down the current path, I am going to burn out and will not be able to continue maintaining the wiki. I have described the reasons for the change in the article for Project: Texts About Pandora
https://pandorastale.wiki/wiki/Pandora%27s_Tale_Wiki:Texts_About_Pandora#Hosting_availability

(Yes, the name of the article is a pun on the pages "Texts from Pandora" and "Texts from Pandora 2".)
https://comicsbyxan.com/comic/texts-from-pandora/
https://comicsbyxan.com/comic/texts-from-pandora-2/

There are still some things I need to determine.

1) First and most significantly, I have to figure out how to convert a MediaWiki instance into a git repository. I've found several scripts which claim to do it, but they all seem to have significant drawbacks in addition to being unmaintained. I would greatly appreciate advice from computer creatures in this regard.

2) Then I have to decide on the text format: Plaintext, gemtext, or markdown? There are ups and downs to each of them, though I'm not as worried since I believe it might be possible to convert between them later.

3) Finally I have to decide on the hosting software and platform if I want anyone else to be able to read it. Gitlab, Forgejo, sourcehut, or something else?

Once I answer these questions, I am going to move Pandora's Tale Wiki to a git repository, and then I will ask Miraheze to shut down their copy of the wiki. I don't know how long this process will take, but I believe it's the only way I can continue the wiki.

Today, Pandora's Tale Wiki reaches an important milestone. If the wiki were a software project, then version 0.0.1 would have been in September 2022 (the wikis founding), version 1.0 would have been in August 2023, and version 2.0 would be released today.

What's so big about today's update? It requires some explanation that doesn't fit in this instance's character limit, so please see the blog post.
