are following:

- reinstate reliable content
- prevent content for all system versions against loose it
- clean/verify/update wiki content
- make wiki better and easier than it was before
- make wiki actual documentation for Shareaza
Rules for recovering
Aim is to place as much of content as possible. If you are going to help in this please try to follow below listed general rules, otherwise we can waste lots of time and reach no effects.
Sources
Shareaza Wiki is recovered from many sources. We recover only our own, by Shareaza community created and owned, content. Unfortunately this also means that the content have to be selected and gathered manually to be useful (bot is useless when no rules can be set), and this make it will take a longer time to obtain effects, as in total there can be even about 5000-6000 unique pages to examine and process them to become Shareaza wiki pages again.
Formatting
Seems in many cases formatting will have to be done again. Plain text is pasted in most cases.
Date of recovered content
Date mentioned in source of recovered page is placed at the end. This is date of last edition in sabotaged wiki.
Reinstated structure
We try to reinstated structure, but please do not use subpages if this is not need. This is very fancy but make much more difficult reading (for users), editing, recovering, and verification (have we recovered all and is it actual content) . Also translating of subpages is more difficult when context is lost, and in many cases subpages are untranslated orphans. Avoid it please, at last during recovery.
One thing in one place only, in the whole Wiki
Please take as a general rule "one thing is to be described in one place (page)". If it is needed should be linked with "[ [ name_of_wiki_page ] ]" like in Wikipedia. It will allow to make updates in one place only and will make whole Wiki more actual and easy to use.
Content about older systems
Please do not remove parts about older system versions, they are needed for many users, but add info about newer and mark them as such. Also please do not move it to subpages. Order of versions is following: more actual system related go first. So,first goes: W7 > XP > Me > Win2k > 98. If something is system related point it directly, as users usually when "system" is mentioned think "my system, the one I have", and it could what any system.
Content from last backup
If there was a content from backup at page it has been moved below pasted recovered content for verification purposes. It was indicated with comments.
Comments at recovered pages
Recovered pages have below listed comments. Please use them if you are going to add any recovered content.
At the beginning of recovery content:
<Start of recovered content from sabotaged pp.net. It need to be verified and updated if needed. If there was any backuped content aviable it will be bellow recovered content for verification purposes. Please do not remove parts about older system versions, they are needed for many users, but add info about newer and mark them as such. This info should be removed after that verification and update, but only when this page in this language version will be actual and ready to use.>
At the end of recovered content: <end of recovered content>
<there was no backuped content> or <content recovered from last aviable backup>
