Yes, the data all still exists. The biggest problem with the site, actually is
the "health" of the database. It's ugly beyond words. A big part of what needs
to happen for the future of the site is the rebuilding of the database in a
format that a DBA wouldn't laugh and point at.
But perhaps you're talking about creating something to simply import into a
wiki? If so, I'd have to wonder what amount of time it would take to recreate by
hand vs. creating a script that would work. In theory a script would work best,
but you just never know in practice.
