Okay when? It's kind of tricky right now because we're in the middle of
creating a new wiki. Would it be okay if you have stable links that
redirect into the temporary wiki until we go live? I have to talk to
Matthew but it should be possible with interwiki redirects. The only
downside of this would be that your users would end up for a short
timeframe (until we go live) in a temporary wiki. With complete, up to
date OBS documentation but maybe other stuff that is missing.

Well we are creating a completely new wiki from the ground up at the
moment so you may have to live with some inconveniences. Once we go live
we will of course use standard wiki mechanisms like move.
But look at the solution above, if thats okay, we'll try to get this set
up for you.
