I have now completed copying our current Wiki information (with some updates as well) from http://www.miscdebris.net/plplot_wiki/ to the new official site at <https://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/wiki>. I used the pandoc app for the part of the process requiring transformation from MediaWiki format to markdown format. That transformation was not perfect so had to be supplemented by some sed scripting and in the case of tables and images, hand editing. There was also some special hand editing that had to be done for the case when a wikilink referred to a page with a blank or a fraction bar in the title. For the 48 pages whose contents were not altered, the new official site page looks virtually identical to the old miscdebris site page showing the markdown format is more than adequate for representing Wiki pages.
I dropped the Subversion_access page since that is no longer relevant. I also took this opportunity to substantially update three wiki pages (the Home, General_CMake_documentation_links, and Testing_PLplot pages). So 51 of the 52 wiki pages at the miscdebris site appear in our new Wiki site with the same content (48 cases) or substantially updated content (3 case). I tagged each of those 3 substantially updated pages in our new official wiki with the label of "2014" indicating what year they were last updated. I hope to see plenty of other "2014" tags in the weeks ahead as others here update PLplot official Wiki pages of interest to them. Note that core PLplot developers should have write access to our SF wiki now, but write access to that wiki can additionally be arranged for anyone else here who wants to help with this update effort. @Werner: Thanks very much for your years of effort maintaining the old official Wiki and also contributing substantially to its contents. Please freeze the old Wiki site at http://www.miscdebris.net/plplot_wiki/ and put a notice on its front page concerning that freeze and also referring to the new official wiki site.
