Page Viewing and Editing Disabled

As you may know, Issuepedia has been going slow recently. We are about to fix this, but editing pages must be disabled temporaily to complete this delicate operation.

See http://wiki.on.nimp.org/issuepedia for more information.

In the mean time, there are plenty of other tasks that need to be done. There is a huge backlog of cleanup to do on the French Issuepedia, and there is many controversial topics involving Spanish, German, and Italian-speaking people who want their issues heard on Issuepedia. Have fun and be patient while we fix things.
