I asked an admin before posting this
I saw the need for a wiki for of my communities on lemmynsfw so I made this so that I could make wikis, and I figured since I'm making it for myself, why not let others use it!
A few things:
-
the ui is still a work in progress, currently it's using wikijs, but I may make a more bespoke soloution, as wikijs is limited in the types of menus that can be created
-
This is currently only run by me because of this:
-
please be patient with load times, as I do not have high availability set up yet, but I will be upgrading in the future.
-
signup to use is currently only invite only, and limited to moderators.
-
If you'd like to make a wiki for your sub, please dm me here, I will probably accept your application if you moderate a community.
-
you don't need an account to read the wiki
-
It's free for you! But it's not free for me, and could get very expensive over time
Donations would be greatly appreciated so I can scale up and keep this running!
The site is:
community.lemmywiki.com
Also, check out the community for the wiki:
!lemmycommunitywiki@lemmy.world
Input on alternatives to wikijs that you think would be better are welcome!
Lemmynsfw admin here, partially my fault but mostly not.
The other admin owned the server and the domain, suddenly he stopped responding, I started getting concerned and shit you not before all this happened I was planning on making a backup the weekend AFTER the site went down. But of course that never happened. That's the part that's my fault, I should have been backing things up ages ago.
The server is down, and I had access to the server, but not the platform it's hosted on. One day the server just... turned off. Other admin isn't responding and I have no way to get the data from the site.
I have access to, but don't own the domain. So the plan now is to look into other hosting options, like the fedihost beta program, and spin up a Lemmy and/or piefed instance and redirect from the old domain to a new one I own. But yeah unfortunately it looks like the site as it was is dead :(
