Manics.nl?
Noticed it has been over a year since Manics.nl was last updated, which especially surprising given the band's activity over the summer. Is this site dead?

there is a message on the manics.nl site

Quote:
As you have probably noticed, manics.nl has not been updated for a long time. This is mostly due to real-life-obligations of the creators. After some consideration and a call for suggestions on our Facebook-page, we have decided to give visitors the chance to become an editor, and write their own reference-articles. If you are interested in contributing to manics.nl, please send your draft for an article (preferably about a JFPL-reference) to mail@manics.nl. We will try to reply asap.

They recently wrote this on their Facebook page:

Dear fans of MANICS.NL, we need your help. As many of you have noticed, the site hasn't been updated in ages. It's simply too much work. So, what path should we take? Should MANICS.NL be a wiki, should we find ourselves a dedicated staff, or should we leave it as it is, making it a sort of reference-archive? Please respond here or mail us: mail@manics.nl.
After a number of comments they concluded:

Thanks for all the replies to our previous message. For now, we have decided the site will stay as it is, however we will give people the chance to become an editor. If you are interested, please send your draft for an article (preferably about a JFPL-reference) to mail@manics.nl. We will reply asap.

I wrote an article on which Manic Street Preacher probably loves fish fingers the most. They didn't reply.

I wish we could do something to keep it up. If it's server money I'm sure we can manage. I'd chip in. Noticed it was down the other day and felt bad.
