 Hello,

 The list of GNOME download mirrors linked to from
 https://wiki.gnome.org/Sysadmin/Mirrors is a 404 link.  Is there another
 list of current GNOME mirrors?  Thanks,

The mirrorlist has been removed as we totally switched our mirroring 
system to use Mirrorbrain which lists all the available mirrors for each 
of the files you can find at download.gnome.org.

Where can you find such list? By clicking the 'Details' link on the 
right side of each file, an example. [1]

I'm updating the wiki page now to reflect this change, thanks for 
reporting the information there was misleading!

I'm closing the ticket, please re-open if there's more.

Hmm...after having looked at it, I'm not sure how well this lends itself 
to our automatic refresher script, since the list of mirrors generated 
will vary depending on where somebody runs the script from.
