Corrupted Pages
A while back, the original company had a drive failure. Most of the wiki was recovered, but some of the files were corrupted.
We found that you can find them on wayback! Update: Better / easier solution! See below.
These are pages that do not have a title in them. That was the only way I could figure out how to find "corrupted" ones since the corrupted ones are well, corrupted, and are missing the actual text contents.
Some may just be redirect pages. But if it is empty, chances are it got corrupted.
How to fix
We need a volunteer or 2 with some time! You don't need to be able to fix all of them at once, even if you just have a few minutes, restoring a few will help. To fix:
- Request a wiki login - contact me, jonathan.foote@liloconsulting.com and I'll set you up with a login. Currently I have logins disabled to prevent spam.
- On this page, open a link. Hint: if it looks "nice" it has already been fixed. If it has underscores like `some_page` it still needs fixing.
- If it has some content, and no broken images or anything, move on to the next one. Some just say "this page has moved".
- If it is completely empty though, continue:
- Click the "revisions" link on the right side.
- If there is only one revision and it is broken: we may be outta luck. For now move on to the next one in the list.
- Click on the second most recent change. (The first most recent one will be corrupted).
- If it looks ok, hit "edit" then "save".
- Verify it works now! If so, go back to the list on this page and remove it from the list, and go on to the next one.
Once you go through all the ones in the list, let me know. And thanks ahead of time!
List of "possibly" corrupted pages
Note: the way I found these, was to do a file search for any that did not have a title (with `===`) in them. So a lot of them are not corrupted, they are just pages saying "this page moved…".
If you find one just says "page moved …" and is not blank, remove it from the list.
If the page itself is totally blank, follow instuctions above to restore the most recent "working" version.
