The wiki was down for a while again but is back up. Seems faster too.

They fixed it.

"The database server for this site went down hard around that date and it looks
like it didn't come up quite cleanly and had some database corruption. I was
able to repair it and that page seems to be working now."

Looks like there is a problem again.
Database error
A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:

(SQL query hidden)

from within function "MediaWikiBagOStuff::_doquery". MySQL returned error "1016: Can't open file: 'objectcache.MYI' (errno: 145) (tera)".

They replied on 5/11 that:

"I can't keep the system up longer than about 6 hours. I was able to pull a filesystem backup, but I need to get a proper mysql dump (I think) so I'll have to go in again and do that later this week. I need to see what we can do as far as alternative hosting options."

https://cachedview.com is a good way to access a cached copy of MozillaZine KB pages in the interim. If you're using a chrome based browser the search result will also have a three vertical dot widget that you can click on to access google's cache of the web page.

Nope...
I think it's still down & been that way for weeks.

Been using the "official" support site.

I submitted a ticket to OSU about the wiki being unreachable, and got a reply. A power supply died and the next scheduled visit to the data center is Thursday. They'll fix it then (unless they have some reason to visit the data center earlier).
