QuakeWiki.NET archived

Some time last year Chip/Ciprian approached me about hosting an archive of QuakeWiki.net. Today I finally finished fixing some broken download URLs and it feels ready now. \o/

QuakeWiki.net was launched in 2009 and has been a cherished "competitor" on the more mod-y site of Quake. Chip hosted many mods, collected images and videos and unearthed a mass of content from the PlanetQuake archives and other ancient sources of Quake's early community days. In 2011, quakewiki.net hosted a fantastic QuakeExpo. There is much much more but maybe *you* also want to share your favorite memories about the site?

The site is supposed to be in a read-only state but some features are hard to turn off without removing content from the site (e.g. ratings). If you are a Wordpress wizard and/or experienced with turning sites into static, plain-HTML copies while keeping all URLs alive, please shout! Otherwise it will happen "some day"(tm).

Thanks Chip, for trusting me to keep your site online. I feel honored!

So we can't edit it any longer? The last time I tried to Spirit was doing something at the same time on the same page! I heard Twilight Zone music and got pretty mad at the site when it wouldn't save my changes. I for one, use Quake Wiki quite often. I'd hate to see all its functionality disappear.

.NET is not .ORG ;)

quakewiki.org = the actual editable-by-anyone wiki
quakewiki.net = Chip's site where he collected loads of stuff, posted news, etc

Duh! I'm a doofus. Thanks for the clarification.
