Diskmag conversion project reborn

I've started up my diskmag conversion project again, hopefully I'll manage to keep active this time.

Head over to http://c64mags.untergrund.net and tell me what you think.

Tried reverting the change by just creating an account and giving it a try.

Only Ymgve can help out here.

(Edit: I at least removed the spam content and replaced it with an explanation.)

Thanks for fixing. But that's just the tip of the ice berg...

Look at the recent changes....

Isn't there some kind of automatic spam protection mod to be installed? Think I have seen this on the bigger wikis. If that can't be applied, I will vote for having some kind of moderation on registered users. This site (and project) is too valuable to see it destroyed by spammers =(

Sorry, I haven't been paying attention to it lately. There IS a filter installed - a ReCaptcha anyone registering or posting URLs have to perform. But apparently the spammers are good enough to pass it.

I'll do a cleanup and try to figure out some better filtering.

Time to bring down the iron fist! Everyone's blocked from editing!

I'm lazy, so I have just restored a backup from last year. Sorry to those who've possibly lost any edits you've done, but it didn't look like there were more than one or two. Those of you that already contributed should still be able to edit and create articles, but if anyone else wants to contribute, just contact me and I'll add you to the whitelist.

More contributors are needed! Still loads of diskmags not indexed. Anyone up for some Python hacking?

I contacted Ymgve and I now am able to edit pages. I already uploaded addybook #9-15 and am currently working on addybook #8. Next is Ahead and after that I want to start on our own magazine 'Internal'.

I think this project is worth the efforts and maybe other people are willing to help out.
Contact Ymgve for edit rights if you want to contribute.
If there's interest by fellow c64'ers, maybe we can put together a workgroup and keep each other up to date on what magazines we're working on.

So... nobody seems to be interested :(

Maybe someone can help me with this: The chapters of the mags are often saved as seperate prg but the txts are packed. If i knew how this packing worked, mayb I could write a program to unpack those files. What were the programs used or how does it packing work ? How can I recognize code that is used to pack/unpack the text chapters.
