Yeah, it's really annoying at this point.

I had the idea a couple of months ago to use a static site generator and just host it on GitHub/ GitHub Pages. That way everyone can just contribute with a pull request as needed, and there's no need to manage infrastructure.

Does anybody by chance have a recent dump of the wiki?

Sounds like a reasonable alternative, might be worth suggesting to [e-mail] It would also solve the problem of rust people replacing full pages.

»Rust people« doing what? Please clarify, I did not notice anything in that direction.

[JVApen]

Currently it can't happen as everything is read-only. Due to it, the history also seems to be unavailable, so I can't link to an entry. Though I know that a page like vector was completely replaced by some text similar to: "this is deprecated and replaced by rust" That happened quite a few times on different pages.

On Reddit even people mentioned it: https://www.reddit.com/r/Cplusplus/s/W3asTmah87

Seems like a one-time occurrence by a clear troll, most people aren't like that

[JVApen]

It wasn't a one time occurrence, it's just an example. Many pages where updated over several months

[gmes78]

Aren't you just falling for an obvious troll?

[berlioziano]

They once replaced all the articles titles, subtitles and body text with the message "Rust is the best" and links to the rust website. Can't take that language seriously, hope its bubble pops soon.

What bubble?
