The wiki has been targeted by spammers for months now, so unfortunately I can't see it getting back without active moderation.
I agree. I'm finding there's a whole lot more spam than what was on the main page. It could be quite a job to clean all of that up, and without ownership of the domain, I'm not sure anyone could prevent the spammers from taking over again. I found another email address for Ruud this morning on the whois for the sudopedia.org domain, and I emailed him. We'll see whether anything comes of it.

I have a strong feeling that due to what happend on the old sudoku forum and the programmers forum - that there is somebody somewhere who has kept a copy of the original
I did learn this morning that one of the mods of the dailysudoku.com forum got a complete copy about a year ago, but obtaining a copy from him could be a problem. He had offered a while back to burn it to DVD and send it to anyone who asked, but he mentioned more recently that he was having trouble getting it to copy to a DVD or thumb drive (apparently due to some Windows-illegal file names). He didn't seem to have the know-how or the inclination to restore it to Sudopedia himself.
