Midas Wiki page : IV

I went to look something up and the information is no longer on the UESP Wiki. Does anyone know what happened? Is it something that is ok to talk about?

No. I'm not looking for the mod. I'm looking for the info about it in the wiki. There used to be a page or two with information and a faq and isn't there anymore.

Thanks for finding that form me tgl. That is the information I was looking for. It means that if anyone comes up with something more accurate and complete, they will accept it.

If a mod has had no recent maintenance, is inaccurate, out of date and has no information about who to contact, then can you really blame the moderators for assuming it's been abandoned?
Remember that the wiki doesn't just hold information on the odd mod that may be referenced occasionally.
IMO if the info held there is obsolete or inaccuate then it's better not to be on view at all.

I do not recall making any claims about blaming anyone Shiki. I simply asked about what happened because I was curious as to why it was gone. You need to take a few breaths, calm down and stop assuming we are all evil or stupid. You do not need to be rude.

You do not need to be rude.

I do admit that sometimes the way I express myself is unfortunate.
If it came off as rude, then appologies all round. That was not my intention.
I was just trying to explain why/how things can be lost from the wiki. Believe it or not the same thing almost happened to the FCOM info a few months ago after dev_akm hadn't updated for a period of time.

I'm glad you kept that on the wiki Shiki. FCOM is hugely important to the community.

I fully understand the reasoning for taking the Midas info out of the wiki. It was incomcplete and inaccurate. If I get the energy, I will see what I can do about coming up with something better for that one.

If anyone wants to provide information, put it in spoiler tags here so I can compile it. I'd love help with this.

I fail to be surprised by this one bit. UESP has become as much of a political football for certain people as Wikipedia itself.
