Supercede pbworks wiki with github wiki?

[robertsky]

While on the hunt to clean up old links and pages around the web, I am wondering if we should supercede pbworks with github wiki? After all, most, if not all, of the active contributors are on github already, updating the website.

Why not merge whatever good content they hold with some well designed URL on http://hackerspace.sg/ ?

github wiki is a waste of time.

I'm adding any new stuff (and aiming to perform any updates) by moving
stuff from the wiki to the website. It don't think it makes sense to
have two separate repositories of stuff with two separate (if
overlapping) sets of people maintaining them.

OK. I work on pulling and organising the information from the wiki then.

Shouldn't http://hackerspacesg.pbworks.com/w/page/13758491/FrontPage be retired?

Most of its information is defunct AFAICT

Yes, however historically processes to deal with such cleanups have
resulted in a massive loss of content. Is anyone stepping forward to do
a conservation-minded (rather than
destroy-everything-we-can-get-away-with) migration/cleanup?

Gosh, looks like this is still open. Mind if I step up? Obviously, it won't matter even if I take a while more for this.... but I do want to migrate the old site.

Got to check with @rolandturner

No need to check with me, I simply placed a snapshot at https://github.com/hackerspacesg/hackerspacesg.pbworks.com to allow this sort of work to proceed at leisure after the PBworks wiki goes away. (It was supposed to disappear yesterday, although it's still live as at this moment.)
