It has been happening several times now tonight. First it was down, then it was back up, and right now — 2025-12-17T23:00:00Z — it’s down again.
This is what it looks like when one visits the Wiki…

A few days ago I couldn’t reach the forum. Chromium and firefox had not expressed it clearly, but adguard browser stated cert_err . Yup, - again - was my first thought.

Nope, not a certificate this time. It works now but Phil has to check it, not that the server is out of space or tha database is broken or something like that.

Wiki is up again from what I can tell.
Apparently the Wiki is running in a container with limited space, and the logs needed pruning.
