Wiki & forum down?

Apologies if I've missed something obvious, but both the wiki and forum
seem to have been down for at least a few hours now (I think they are
located on the same host). Does anyone know what the situation is?

They both look fine to me. Maybe an issue with your local DNS?

There is a thread on reddit about the issue:

It is down for me to.

#archlinux's topic is:
"Hard disk failure on bbs and wiki"

For now:
Use google Cache, way back machine? Else pacman -Ss arch wiki (it's from
15 october so it should be fine)

That's odd; they're both down for me too, now. I do use dnsmasq for DNS
caching, so maybe that has something to do with why it worked for me the first
time?

Strange, I've tried it from multiple hosts, including remote hosts in
other cities/on other ISPs, all with the same result, no response from
the server. I haven't seen a problem with any other websites this
morning, including other subdomains of archlinux.org.

Mind telling me what address wiki.archlinux.org resolves to for you? My
DNS is showing it as a CNAME for brynhild.archlinux.org, which is at
176.9.18.112.

There has been a harddriver failure, wichhas led to wiki and bss do
go ofline. I myself don't have any information on when and how
this issue will be resolved.

In mean while join #archlinux in irc.freenode.net
Feel free to use your favourite IRC app.

Thanks, I didn't know the wiki was available as a downloadable package.
That will suffice for now.
