GuildWiki:Welcome PvXwiki

As most of you know, PvXwiki hosted Guild Wars builds ever since our build section got wiped. Now it seems there are plans to move PvXwiki to Wikia as well, like GuildWiki did one and a half years ago.

Is keeping PvXwiki independent a realistic option?
Here's what it might cost: Renting1 two managed Athlon 64/6000 servers with 6 GB RAM and a 750 GB disk each and a combined traffic allowance of 2 Terabyte/month costs 198€/month, that comes to around 250$ USD. (Internal traffic between the servers is free.) The wiki needs to earn around $10 per day to keep going. That sounds doable.

It also needs people to care for the mediawiki software; the provider runs the apache/php/mySQL database etc. stuff (that's why it's "managed"). They promise better than 99% uptime.

1 German GuildWiki has been using this example hosting provider for years.

Advantages
PvXwiki stays the same. No other skin, no other usernames, no ads the community doesn't want. Definitely no-commercial, like the license says. (Yes, we get Warcraft ads. Lots of them.)
