Can't access wiki.archlinux.org due to SSL error

Hey, not sure if it is a me-problem, but I've tried it on two devices with two different ISPs. I can't access the wiki anymore. Browsers only give some non-distinct SSL error. This is what openssl outputs:

➜  ~ openssl s_client -showcerts -connect wiki.archlinux.org:443

The wiki is temporarily down.

Re: Can't access wiki.archlinux.org due to SSL error

Anyone needing the wiki content can grab the arch-wiki-docs or arch-wiki-lite packages in the meantime.

Edit: For people who want to check if the wiki is down for everyone or just them, we have as status.archlinux.org page dedicated to the Wiki.

Searching likely won't work, but you can browse it and open pages directly - and it also allows to *share* wiki articles with help seeking users

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

Thanks for mentioning arch-wiki-lite, it's a great offline resource to have.

For the curious: we hit an nginx bug that caused it to stop doing TLS. Reloading it a couple times worked, if I understood correctly the exchanges on IRC.
