wiki web server is mis-configured.

When I browse to:

https://wiki.debian.org/

The web page returned says:

    Forbidden

    <p>You are not allowed to access this!</p>"


OR when viewed as source, I see this:


    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN">
    <title>403 Forbidden</title>
    <h1>Forbidden</h1>
    <p><p>You are not allowed to access this!</p></p>

Hi Howard,

What you're seeing is that the wiki is blocking access from your IP,
most likely due to spammy behaviour from it or a nearby IP
address. Please mail wiki@debian.org with your IP address (so it will
stay private rather than shared in the bug log here) and we can work
things out.

Since this was blocked 2 years ago and not seen until recently, I've
unblocked it.
