Hey!
Thanks for the advice, we'll try to do something about. The plan is to put it back online soon but it's a huge file and we have to move it to a different server, plus upgrade it.
Anyway a redirect will do us good.
Thanks, Thilo and Frederic, How about for the interim period making a single catch-all page on the Wiki and redirect all the 404's there? Then later proper redirect formulas can be set up to steer known moved pages to their new address. The catch-all page could say something to the effect that the page you were looking for has moved to the wiki and provide the visitor a search box and links to the top of the wiki with advice to search or browse there? That keeps the dead links from being complete dead ends. If the wiki (it's moinmoin, right?) has a plug-in to create a site map for google[1], that can help.
