I was looking through the old dynastic histories recently, and noticed that some were missing their Final Ruleset (which is normally theoretically possible to recover via reading proposals, but would be a pain). The wiki’s history only goes back to the server move. Does anyone (Kevan? 75th Trombone?) happen to have a copy of the ruleset history handy, so that at least that part of the dynastic histories can be filled out?

Slightly relatedly, is anybody else getting the wrong timestamps on sidebar proposals, when viewed as part of an open-for-comments post (but not on the front page, or on a closed post)? They show up as being six hours older than they actually are.

Yes, me too. It seems to be happening about equally often on open-for-comments pages and the front page, but not consistently either way.

On the timestamp thing, could the difference in behaviors for everyone be due to whether you’re logged in or not?
Kevan, I just blocked all search crawling of the old wiki using a robots.txt file, that should solve those problems, right?

Yes, we have been a bit lax in keeping these up to date. The old wiki is still around at oldwiki.blognomic.com, for reference.
(We should probably put it behind a simple .htaccess password so that we aren’t doing Chinese Stone Crusher spammers any favours - it all seems to have been spidered by Google again.)
