Hi list,

I just found that I'm not able to write to wiki today. And I see that some time ago there was discussion regarding of possibility to switch it to read-only mode or even move somewhere else.

IMHO this is a wrong idea. Wiki is an open platform by its nature. So the volume of spam -- is just a result of that
1. visitors don't clean the spam when they found it
2. there is no capcha or any relevant mechanism to prevent robo-spam posting

And another theme I was alerted by: this is a splitting of wiki for GTA02 and GTA04. I honestly don't really like that idea not even because I still use GTA02 and have no plans to reject it just because more powerful device is on the market, but also because a I'm not really love idea of "buying new gadget just because it has more powerful processor". I love idea of keeping old hardware living for maximum long time, for reusing it and for improvement of functionality in the frames of given power. And I believe that a lot of people support my point of view.

So, please don't archive old wiki and don't make it read-only. This is wrong way IMHO.

And the main question. How to get access to the wiki eventually?

thank you in advance,
Dmitry
