Hello All,

Foss Nepal wiki is up and running again at http://wiki.fossnepal.org/ is up
and running. Moving forward, I will maintain it.

Please browse it, check it and share your feedback about it. I will create
a github repo for the website and also write a Readme on how to set it up.
It's a media wiki installation so that should help a bit. It can be little
tricky during debug and development. I will try to add docs on those areas.

In order to get it up and running, I had to disable the following MediaWiki
extensions.

1. ConfirmAccount
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmAccount
The *ConfirmAccount* extension disables direct account creation and
requires the approval of new accounts by a bureaucrat. Direct account
creation can still be enabled (if you want Administrators/Bureaucrats to be
able to directly make them) by configuring User rights.

2. ConfirmEdit
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit
The *ConfirmEdit* extension lets you use various different CAPTCHA
techniques, to try to prevent spambots and other automated tools from
editing your wiki, as well as to foil automated login attempts that try to
guess passwords.

*Known issues*
- anyone can signup without formal approval
- higher chances of getting spam/bots

If I could have a quick discussion with a former maintainer then it will
ease the further development. Is there any possibility on how I can reach
the person.

Best Regards,
Samundra
