Wiki editing?

Has the access to wiki editing been altered or anything? Or am I just an idiot. Well, yes to the second one, but that's a moot point.
Went to login and was met with a "You are not a member of the required phpBB group."

Never been a wiki scribe.... So I don't know Dev... I should sign up and give something back to the community if its still available...

I tried and got the same message, and I used to be fairly active as I made the page on treasure hunting.
Maybe all the scribes were removed for the revamp someone metioned before, but I don't know if that is still on the cards.

I had mentioned a revamp about a year ago, right when I fell off the face of the earth ;P Finished a bunch of the goc/peerless stuff and some other guides/pages, but never got to the full extent I wanted to. Updating dead pages, finishing categories/linking, adding pretty pictures, etc. There was also some concern about the wiki being... too helpful, in a sense. Considering the plethora of custom stuff here, there's definitely a need for some manner of documentation, but maybe not as in-depth as it is currently. A little less hand-holding/precise step by step stuff and more of a "here's what you need to figure this out." ^^
Anywho, wanted to poke around at a few pages and noticed I couldn't. Just wondering if others are seeing the same thing/if there's a plan in place or something of the sort ;P

Probably this will be more offtopic, but I want to note that UO is not a quest, its an RPG. So not all players like solving puzzles. Especially since in such games most of game-info is in 95% cases received from other players, not solved. Only maybe strategies for fights don't need to be described in wiki.
