I was recently hoping to do a bit of development during a plane flight, so I downloaded the static offline wiki from here (https://love2d.org/wiki/Main_Page). However, when I extracted and examined the wiki, I noticed two things:
The file was last generated on Sun 28 Feb 2021 12:09:39 AM CET (according to the readme.txt). Since I imagine the wiki has changed since then, it seems either the timestamp is incorrect or whatever automated process generated wiki.zip has stopped running sometime last year. Please note that I did not check to see if any "new" pages (from after Feb 28, 2021) were present because of the number of missing pages detailed below.
Several basic sanity check links fail. For instance:
index.html -> "love.audio" (love1.html): Not found.
index.html -> "love.data" (love12.html): Not found.
Unless I'm navigating this in an incorrect way, this would imply that the vast majority of the documentation is not present.
Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding the intended contents of wiki.zip? I worried about submitting this as an issue, as I don't know if the issue tracker (https://github.com/love2d/love/issues) covers problems with the website or if it just covers bugs with Love2D itself. Thus, I am submitting this here as a question.
I don't know if that file (wiki.zip) has ever not been broken. It's probably better to use this website which has everything on one page (easy to save).

Hmm... thank you for the alternative. I'll use that. I also upvoted Slime's suggestion on the wiki page. Hopefully someone with the proper permissions can redirect the link so that other users won't be confused as I was.
