Fwd: Query about offline viewing of this wiki

Good day! I would like to know if you can help me. On wikipedia, anyone can
download the entire site in a compressed format that can be uncompressed
indexed and viewable on the fly. I am wondering if your site has that
capability as well.

I can resend you my original email but I thought it best to let you read
the full conversation below.

Thanks!

Hi,

The Community Team is here to make Debian a welcoming place and also to
resolve occasional conflicts and disagreement within the project itself.
We're also happy to resolve queries but I think this one is probably
one for the web team https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Webmaster

I don't think there is a compressed archive of the Debian wiki - it's
changing fairly regularly but the web team should be able to advise.

There is documentation for each Debian package - usually in /usr/share/
[packagename] - but there's also the Debian web site.

The Debian wiki is built on moinmoin - you may need some elements of
that framework to display it well.

In the hope that this is useful.

With every good wish, as ever,
