Deletionpedia v2 is a wiki is to rescue articles deleted from Wikipedia. It was started by Guaka on December 24th 2013 and so far we've been rescuing 91,249 articles.

Deletionpedia v1 was doing this for a while in 2008 but has stopped working (most rescues in 2008, last edit in 2012). Guaka (talk) plans to keep v2 going for a bit longer.
