Hi everyone,

I just got this email from Wikimedia UK. Are more chapters considering 
this? I see some pro's and con's on 
https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/IT_Development/This_wiki , but it 
doesn't list the most important con: Waste of movement effort and money 
on for example debugging a mangled database (see 
https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/w/index.php?title=GLAM-WIKI_2013%2FAttendees&diff=23460&oldid=23443 
and than click contribs).

Maarten

Dear contributor

Since its creation, Wikimedia UK's wiki has been hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation. The hosting for this site was migrated from the Foundation's datacenter to the Wikimedia UK's over the last week-end of September (28-29th September). It was not possible to migrate non-public account information. This includes watch lists, account preferences, contact email, or current password for registered users.

We have recreated 'stub-accounts' on the migrated site and want to communicate to you your new password:
* user: Multichill
* password: xxxxxx

We invite you to change it as soon at possible:

If you want to know more about this migration:

Kind regards
Wiki migration team
