Hello.
This is just an information message regarding what happened yesterday.
I was previously told that there would be a system update to MediaWiki 1.37 near the end of this month, and the displayed editing error message made it seem like the wiki was being moved to a new location, so I was initially not certain what was going on, and asked Fandom about it. However, I am European, and Fandom has its office in San Fransisco, so it took a few hours before I received a reply.
Anyway, it thankfully turned out that it was just the regular system update, but the conversion process was buggy and had to be rolled back and redone, which is why our wiki was locked from editing for around 7 to 8 hours yesterday. I was also so tired yesterday that I didn't think of creating a public information message before I went to bed.
Regardless, I have been told that there seem to be a few new bugs in the programming, so please tell me about them here, so I can inform our wiki manager in turn, and he can hopefully get Fandom's official programmers to correct them.
Thank you for any help, and my apologies for the inconvenience.
