Documentation Wiki disabled

[Jim Breen]

The Wiki has been pounded a few times in the last couple of hours,
bringing the WWW server to a halt. I've disabled Wiki, which lets the
normal dictionary accesses proceed.

If you want to look at the Wiki contents, they are available at:

For a week or so, the would-be scrapers pounded away at non-existent
URLs, then they faded away to only a handful of attempts per day.

I have now re-enabled the Wiki , but I'll disable it again if the
hordes return.. It's interesting that they are using thousands of
(presumably) cloud hosts, with only a few requests from each IP
address.

I have downloaded the Wiki contents (it only has 27 pages!) and I'll
convert relevant bits into plain HTML.
