Pangaea Wiki:About
This wiki was created in March 2016. You might wonder why the current Pangaea Wiki is being hosted separately from the main website.
Original Pangaea Wiki
That wiki was of course being hosted in the same domain as the main website, but it was getting so outdated that the pages were failing to display properly. The issues most likely lay with the newer versions of PHP on the hosting not being compatible enough with that version of mediawiki.
Getting in contact with the person that managed the hosting was proving difficult, so the community simply had to take matters into their own hands to prevent loosing the valuable resource that was the Pangaea Wiki.
The inability of the wiki to display the content was really starting to bother the active community and fear of loosing all the content completely was real.
The rescue plan
The actual content of the original wiki was actually still accessible because the 'edit page' option was still there. This was the basis of the simple plan of just copy-paste the pages manually to a new and functional wiki.
A few members of the community came together to help with this copy-pasta plan, and thankfully the number of pages were not overwhelming for the task.
