That being said, I updated the wikipedia page a bit to include stuff like the fact that now Avisynth is cross platform and runs on Linux and MacOS as well etc, I made sure that some references were the updated ones etc etc etc, but there's one thing I'd like to get rid of and that's the reference to Avisynth 2.6.1 as "Preview Release" as opposed to "Stable Release" 3.7.2.
I mean, it should really say "Legacy" or something else but definitely NOT "Preview Release"... (or it could go from the right hand side menu and be brought down to... like an History section etc).
I wanted to edit it but I can't (i.e I am registered and I can edit stuff on the page, just not that bit)... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AviSynth
Does anyone have access to that part?
The setup is a little confusing but once you click on edit, below the edit box there will be a drop-down list named "Pages transcluded onto the current version of this page". Find "Template:Latest preview software release/AviSynth". I'm not sure if you can rename it to "legacy release" since it uses Template:Infobox software which is protected. If you can't change it to legacy it might just be better to remove the link to avs 2.6.1. Once there is another preview avs+ version add that info there.

Cool. I had done in the past but could not remember exactly how I did it. The easier way to edit stable and preview release is to click on the [+] and it will take you to the template.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll replace them with archived links unless you have a better site. I know you have troubles with archive.org

My hosting company is migrating my websites to a new platform. I'm not sure if they are done. If they are, then they forgot to migrate the wiki too. If the situation is the same on Friday, i will contact them about it.

It's up now, but it's some old backup from 2013, 10 years of stuff missing.

As a regular contributor over the last few years (2013-2023), I gotta ask:
please tell me this is not the only backup we've got... please...

The hosting company migrated all (including mine) websites to a different platform (DirectAdmin). They said i didn't need to do anything. Well, they are almost right ;(

I have asked the hosting company to copy the most recent backup of the wiki to the new platform. Backups are made daily, so that shouldn't be an issue (i hope). We will see.

Now i have the problem that i can't connect to avisynth.nl using ftp (FileZilla). Is here someone who has experience with DirectAdmin and ftp?

I noticed that http://www.avisynth.nl/ automatically redirects you to http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Main_Page but just http://avisynth.nl/ takes you to a 404 page. I don't think that was the case before the migration.

For me, http://avisynth.nl redirected and redirects to http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Main_Page , while I'm almost certain https://avisynth.nl/ either redirected to a mediawiki 404, which also happens now, or didn't even have an HTTPS server running at all.

Could be the browser also, on Chrome both variations redirect to the main page. Yet on Firefox only one works, as I described.

I think the wiki is HTTP only, in fact if I try to use the HTTPS version it leads to an empty page which says "webserver is functioning normally" and nothing else.

The normal HTTP version works just fine, though.

Yep, that worked.
The wiki is back to its glory, including a page I recently modified just a couple of weeks ago.

Good! Yes they placed a recent backup of the wiki, so everything should work again. I saw a change from someone on the 21th of July (i don't know if there should be changes after this date). Yes it's only http (no ssl support).

I was able to connect to avisynth.nl with CoreFTP (for some reason FileZilla didn't work, I kept getting messages 'can't connect to server'), so that's works too. I only need to give ftp access to some users again.

Let me know if you find issues.

If it's plain FTP and it's a recent version of Filezilla, you have to specify that you actually want plain FTP 'cause otherwise it will, by default, put FTP via TLS.
You should go to the Site Manager and force "only use plain FTP".
It should work:
