The original wiki is here[1]. I converted by copying the wiki source into a .wiki file and convert to rST using `pandoc`: $ pandoc -f Mediawiki -t rst spell-check.wiki -o spell-check.rst As part of this rST converstion, I've removed the dated and `codespell` invocations, and linked to the GitHub repo. And cleaned up a couple of external URLs.
