Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
When we were rebuilding the site in Go, we didn't want to rebuild the old wiki, so we moved all the old wiki articles to the Articles section of the forums. This inadvertently made it possible to delete these old articles, and apparently a couple of these posts have since been deleted, for example https://web.archive.org/web/20210730210855/https://handmade.network/wiki/3369-memory_management.
This is a little awkward, since I imagine the author deleted the post for a reason, but I feel that wiki posts should remain online and accessible. Can we somehow protect these posts from being deleted? In the case of articles that have already been deleted, maybe we can just reassign them to a different user or something? The important thing is that the link keeps working.
