Hi everyone,
I've noticed that recently we had a couple of wiki page deletions.
I'd like to remind everyone that deleting pages on the wiki will result
in external (and internal) links to break, so it's usually better to
keep the page, but add text to it, pointing the reader to the new
location or alternative content.
By deleting a page, you also delete the history and any other traces of
the page showing how it came to be. Part of the wiki culture is to
preserve such history, but this isn't possible when you delete a page.
Example:
https://wiki.python.org/moin/FiscalSponsorship
was delete a few days ago.
You can still see the content here:
https://web.archive.org/web/20221001110336/https://wiki.python.org/moin/Fis…
There are references to the page, which have not been updated:
https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonSoftwareFoundation#PSF_Fiscal_Sponsorship
My guess is that the PSF stopped accepting fiscal sponsorship requests
(see https://www.python.org/psf/fiscal-sponsorees/) and that's why the
page was removed, but this is not really the right way to go about this.
Much better is to add a note to the wiki page.
I'll fix the above and add a note now.
Thanks,

Dear python.org Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I recently came across the PythonConsulting wiki page, and I would like to request access to edit and add information about my company, Codetru on https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonConsulting, to the list of Python consulting services.
Company Name: Codetruc
Company Website: https://www.codetru.com/
I believe that our services would be a valuable addition to the Python consulting resources on the page, and I would like to provide a brief description and link to our website.
Please consider adding me to the EditorsGroup so that I can make these updates to the page. If you need any further information or have specific guidelines for editing, please let me know, and I will ensure that the edits adhere to the wiki's standards.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to contributing to the Python community by updating the PythonConsulting page.
Best regards,
Naresh M
