I am trying to understand why it was thought necessary to remove a bunch of information from the Posterous wiki page just because the project is wrapping up. I am under the assumption that there really is no reason to delete stuff off the wiki and correct me if I am wrong. Here is the diff, it is pretty big http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Posterous&action=historysubmit&diff=17211&oldid=17089 |

And that helps because? |

06:12

winr4r |
omf_: because having a huge wall of out-of-date information isn't necessarily what people need to see when they go to the page, and if they *did* there's a pretty prominent link to it? |

See I found it surprising since both of the other warrooms happened a year before I joined archiveteam. I am trying to find out the why, not question if it was right or not. Knowing we used to do it means the why makes sense. I don't have a problem with that, I hadn't seen it thats all |
