Like I'm gonna go reconfiguring my own system just to get around the fact that those guys can't keep their act together well enough to properly manage their domain registration? It appears that wikipediareview.org also belongs to them and has not yet expired, but unfortunately they have it set up to redirect to the nonfunctional .com domain. (I personally would have done the redirection the opposite way, since it's a noncommercial criticism and discussion site, more logically done as a .org rather than implying commerciality with .com; Wikipedia itself switched from .com to .org when it went noncommercial.) They could easily make their site accessible again simply by setting up the .org domain to point directly at the site instead of redirecting, but probably that configuration is in the hands of the same person who failed to renew the other domain, maybe a different person than whoever manages the web hosting itself. I could never untangle the details of the ownership/management of that site, which has sometimes been in heated dispute. -- == Dan == Dan's Mail Format Site: http://mailformat.dan.info/ Dan's Web Tips: http://webtips.dan.info/ Dan's Domain Site: http://domains.dan.info/ _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
