Letters / Shetlopedia was hacked
Like Dave Cooper (What’s with Shetlopedia; SN 30/11/12), I was missing Shetlopedia as it was very useful for checking things.
There was a thread on Shetlink recently about the hacking which I went to to confirm my understanding.
I got a link to Google, but when I clicked it said the thread did not exist!
However there is another more general Shetlopedia thread in the Science & Technology forum.
The final post on that confirms that Shetlopedia was indeed hacked, but they are working on a solution to bring it back.

Shetland News is asking its many readers to consider start paying for their dose of the latest local news delivered straight to their PC, tablet or mobile phone.
Journalism comes at a price and because that price is not being paid in today’s rapidly changing media world, most publishers - national and local - struggle financially despite very healthy audience figures.
Most online publishers have started charging for access to their websites, others have chosen a different route. Shetland News currently has over 630 supporters who are all making small voluntary financial contributions. All funds go towards covering our cost and improving the service further.

- Bring you the headlines as they happen;
- Stay editorially independent;
