gollark: Wow, that wiki sure is quite abandoned.

gollark: Are there not offsite backups of WE?
gollark: Also, the nginx configuration is incomprehensibly complex.
gollark: In theory osmarks.net itself can just be compiled anywhere and put on any static webserver. In practice it can't because people have come to rely on stuff I arbitrarily scp-ed into the webroot, so I have to back up that folder. And it relies on some dynamic-site logic like the comments.
