WTF happened to the wiki?

[HandofMadness]

Typing in the search box on the top left takes me to a blank page with no search results.

I'm having problems with links to the Wiki redirecting to the main page.

Google search for "Waze wiki faq" takes me to this URL: http://www.waze.com/wiki/?title=FAQ
Which instead of taking me to the FAQ takes me to the main page.

When I click on the link to the FAQ from the main page it takes me here: http://www.waze.com/wiki/FAQ which displays:

The MediaWiki FAQ can be found at:

Anyone had direct contact with the mothership?

Kent wrote he had reached out to Jackson.

Are they trying to move the wiki pages to a new directory? I keep getting messages like this at the bottom.

I had to clear the cache and then restart FireFox in that order before it was good again on two of my systems.

Clearing cache caused the appearance to revert to the screwed up version. Until I did that, it at least looked ok.

It's freaking me out. It keeps switching between three modes as I open new pages. I found if I insert index.php/ after wiki/ I can usually get an editable page.

I do not believe this is on purpose, but something is definitely broken at the moment. I have sent a message to Jackson.

My results are mixed, too. I have also found that the main Go/Search box in the left sidebar does nothing but bring up an empty Special:Search page.

I'm getting all kinds of mixed results. Normal display, display like the screenshot in the first post, 404 errrors, etc.

(If you click on the header link for support, then click the link to the wiki from that page, you'll probably hit the 404.)

And when I search, I get a blank search screen. Then if I search again from that screen, I actually get results.

I've already tried force reloads. I'll try clearing the cache once I finish a few things I am working on.

Today after clearing the cache and restarting FF the Wiki appears to be good again. Waze is checking into why it happened.
