wireless.wiki.kernel.org: lingering status of http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/wl12xx/calibrator/

Dear Mr. Berg,

since we are working with TI WL12xx hardware,
I keep a reference on
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/wl12xx/calibrator/ ,
where it now says:
"NOTE: this page is for archival only, see the note at the end of the page."
"This is a static dump of the old wiki, taken after locking it in January 2015. The new wiki is at https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/.";
Trying to find related information
by searching for "calibrator" on https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org
will yield
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/nl80211?s[]=calibrator
where "wl12xx calibrator" is a *dead link*.
The apparent underlying reason for this surfaces when
going through the en ... users ... Drivers hierarchy to
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/wl12xx
where it says
"
For relicensing, the content of this page was removed.

The old website for now has a copy of the old content:

http://linuxwireless.sipsolutions.net/en/users/Drivers/wl12xx/·;
"

Somehow I am not quite feeling entirely well with this status quo
(I would expect that that content *will* get lost, and possibly rather sooner than later,
since someone is bound to eventually say "the old site copy is not needed any more").

So,
are there some ways to improve the content situation,
or will this job then eventually need to be done by
last-ditch efforts (web.archive.org etc.)?



BTW, I realized that
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org does not seem to provide
contact information specific to Wiki maintenance aspects.
Perhaps this is because
the usual communication channels as listed e.g. on
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/support
are expected to be used,
but then there still is no explicit statement about Wiki-specific things
(the Best Practice solution would likely be to
add a one-liner saying e.g.
"When intending to provide input about Wiki-specific maintenance aspects,
please refer to the same general communication channels listed above.")

Ah, of course I should be checking out https://wiki.kernel.org/ -
but hmm that one does not list anything either...


Thank you,

Andreas Mohr
