Apparently a lot of articles didn't make it in the XML dump that was used to rebuild nomadwiki. A lot of good old nomadwiki articles are in archive.org and not on this nomadwiki now.
So the best path forward is probably to
- copy good stuff from archive.org to hitchwiki
- move articles from nomadwiki to hitchwiki if they don't exist on hitchwiki
- move articles from nomadwiki into hitchwiki articles if the page title already exists on hitchwiki
- redirect nomadwiki to hitchwiki
Currently we kinda use nomadwiki as a playground for things before we implement them on hitchwiki but we could just as well use trashwiki for this purpose.
