For the first time in a while, I went back to old-wiki to check something, and was greeted with a login box. And trying to log in with my regular Gaijin credentials doesn’t work.
Did they turn off access on purpose, or screw something up?
The old wiki (Wiki 2.0) was suspended a few months after the new wiki (Wiki 3.0) release. Now only website administrator with specific credentials can access said website as the log-in box suggest, you don’t use your War Thunder credentials for that.
As above, its locked so only those with access can use it. If there is something on it you would like to have transferred to the new wiki or have a copy of you can try contacting the Wiki Moderators, i’m not sure if it’s possible for them to give you a copy of a page or re-create it on the new wiki but it’s worth a try to contact them and ask at least.
Click to reveal generalized instructions for contacting the moderation teams
You can find all the teams and the areas they handle listed here: (Who is who and Reporting Procedure). If you don’t get an answer within a few days you can add more moderators from the list to the original message instead of sending a new message (that way you preserve the date of the message and it doesn’t look like a new request), adding one of the moderators to the message every 2-3 days or so until you get an answer.
Please do not to add the seniors until you have tried all other regular moderators, the Seniors likely won’t answer unless they are added and pinged by the regular moderators but if you’ve added all the regular moderators with no answer then you can add the seniors.
