  • wikiteam

    Tools for downloading and preserving wikis. We archive wikis, from Wikipedia to tiniest wikis. As of 2023, WikiTeam has preserved more than 350,000 wikis.

  • So if anyone is looking to migrate to another site like Miraheze you should be able to use that, even if the wiki has already been deleted. Also for other wikis I found the Wikiteam tool relatively easy to use so people shouldn't be afraid to use it even if they normally don't use Python or anything like that. I just had to download the repository from github (from the Code: Download Zip in the top right), have Python installed, open a command prompt in the folder, copy-paste the commands from their front page, have it fail complaining about missing modules, look up the command to install Python modules, and install the modules it needs.
