FredBauder, Wikipedia administrator and longtime mudder, has helped to resolve this to some extent by creating a Wikia Wiki for preserving mud history. It has very different rules from Wikipedia.

I have issued a call on my website for everyone in mudding to jump in and contribute. If we do a good job of finding citations and the like (and we determine sourcing here!) then we can save mud history -- and who knows, maybe some things will migrate back to Wikipedia over time.

I started out with a long article on LegendMUD. Be nice to see more folks jump in.
