Errors navigating the wiki

I tried to look for “Users and groups” and got a 502 Bad Gateway. I then tried to use it on another device on cellular, and it also got a 502. Tor also got a 502.
Some others also have the problem “QEMU” also does.
Sometimes it also gets a 504 Gateway Time-out.

Those are server error codes, noticed similar this morning but seems back ok?

Re: Errors navigating the wiki

I'm guessing the wiki was/is under ddos attack, given there now appears to be a bot checker in place.

Or it could just be Manjaro again.

Re: Errors navigating the wiki

Installing Anubis because of some LLM-based scraper-DOS might also have caused the hiccups.

Re: Errors navigating the wiki

Why was the Anubis mascot changed to generic icons?

Re: Errors navigating the wiki

Idk, but I will say that my immediate response to first time i faced the Anubis botblocker was "fuck, page was hacked by some 4chan kids"

I'd rather match the color palette and add the archlinux logo than removing the Anubis¹ one to integrate this.
It might however also be self-censoring because Kemonomimi will likely take flak from the woke left, the evangelical right, the mullahs and everyone else with unresolved complexes…

Preliminarily (not sure whether IP was still cached when tested) wikicurses and elinks/lynx/links luckily still work, but I guess this sucks on low-end systems or some browsers (eg. falkon often ran into cloudflare here) or noscript addons. All because some ai-bros are too dumb to feed their artificial intelligence LLM w/o being a complete pita - irony is dead.

¹ That old spoil-spot btw. looks nothing like this; but his genuine appearance would freak the shit out of everyone…

Re: Errors navigating the wiki

The german arch wiki links to eg. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Flatpak (for the english translation), this does not work, because it autoforwards to https://wiki.archlinux.org:3000/title/Flatpak. Going to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Flatpak directly works. Not sure if its the germans or this wikis fault.
I only saw that happening after the wiki started to use anubis.

Re: Errors navigating the wiki

The english wiki also links eg. https://wiki.archlinux.jp/index.php/Flatpak (which still works, as does https://wiki.archlinux.de/index.php/Flatpak ) so that was probably some pattern that got broken on wiki.archlinux.org, yes.
Not sure whether because of anubis or a mediawiki update.

Re: Errors navigating the wiki

Should I report this as a bug somewhere? Who is responsible for such things?

I informed klausenbusk (DevOps member) about this and he fixed it. The https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/* links now work.
