How can I access the content from my Github Organization's wiki that disappeared?
I am part of a Github Organization that has been using the Wiki feature for documentation in a private repository for over a year. We had created many pages for internal use, but the wiki disappeared in the last week.
We use a free organization account and free personal accounts. When we go to our wiki (e.g., https://github.com/<organization-name>/<repo-name>/wiki), it now does not show up and instead shows a banner with "Upgrade to GitHub Team or make this repository public to enable this feature.":
There does not appear to be any reference to this in the Github Changelog or Roadmap. We did not change the parent repository from Public to Private (the repository and wiki have always been private).
How can I recover the content from the now-inaccessible wiki?
It appears that while the wiki display is gone, the wiki content is still accessible from the repository.
The content can be recovered by cloning the wiki locally (see the Github docs):
git clone https://github.com/<organization-name>/<repo-name>.wiki.git
