So here comes my question , are the articles from the old wiki gone for good or are they in some phase of migration to the new platform?
I cant find them on the new one and my old links to them are not working.
None.

Old wiki articles are only available to those with access to the code now (ie not us). However, please do recall what the wiki article said and transfer it over. Sometimes a simple rewrite from memory is better.
This all happened as of yesterday, so it's a new thing. @ anyone with access, this would be the time to figure out how to let everyone view the wiki or view it as an opportunity to migrate the data easily (via a page by page request by infamis, then he can wikify it).

Woah
The old wiki files are not gone, they just aren't active anymore. We'll be putting them in the new Wiki soon, however.

Lack of access to the old wiki articles has already impinged on me. You should really do this ASAP, even if all you do is copy and paste the original wiki formatting into new pages in the new wiki and put "<pre>" tags around it, at least people will be able to read them.
None.
i would REALLY like to get access to the old wiki technical info articles. i'm willing to reformat them but i need access to them!
None.

NudeRaider -- blessed innocent soul knows nothing of the strife we had before EUDs were discovered

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically[2026-6-21. : 4:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
