Wiki "Under Repair"

[Traveler]

I think you are talking about two different things.

The Wiki or our WEB site?  If broken links exist on the WEB site, please send them to me.

Check out the link on the kneeboard in the game the "Web Page Help"  that link does not work.

I just tried it and it worked.

I tried again, still no luck, nothing happens when I click on the link.

Works for me, dropped me out of the game, loaded IE, and opened the "support/help" page on the main web site.

That may be the issue I don't have IE.]

That is, I could duplicate it.

Why not allow the AH community to voluntarily clean up the links on the Wiki page? The intent of Wiki is open source editing.

That was an option. Nobody stepped up. 

Are you volunteering now or did you mean somebody else should do it?

that's not 100% true, I offered and received no response from AH.   I built and maintained the wiki for the 113th.

We had two people respond.  There is no way the Wiki can stay online with all those errors for the months and months it would take to fix it.

It is hurting our ranking at Google.  That is just the way it is.

I just did 5 different searches on Google looking for WWII flight games, wwII aircraft combat simulation, WWII Games, Flight Simulation, and Aircraft Combat Simulation :  Aces High is never returned for any of them so by taking down the wiki what has improved in  Google search?  One might make the case that the fee charged for the services provided by HiTech Creations included the BBS and Wiki.  At least according to the first sentence of the TOS.

The issue with Google is most likely due to the errors generated by the wiki pages. Google will not refer you to a site that has those errors. Now that the wiki is down eventually Google will add the HTC sites back to the top of the list.

As far as the TOS, it says you get the game and a message board. Nothing about a wiki which was added much later.

To repair the wiki you have to understand the code. It's not just going through and editing a page like you do when you setup the squad page. I looked into it and it is a whole different language.

I understand that, but the wiki site is down and not included in the google search , google doesn't see it. As for the TSO even by the narrowest definition a wiki is a message board.
my understanding is that the problem with the wiki is the broken links.  That mean if the broken links are replace with good links or removed by edit, the issue goes away.
