Wiki issue, likely an outage/bug

Somebody noted that a bunch of content in the new wiki seems to be "missing". It's not, but the use of third party add-on macros appears to have broken sometime in the last few hours, and is affecting multiple different add-ons we use such as tabs and some diagramming.
The bug or outage appears to affect only pages using the old editor, which is what most of our content uses of course since we just migrated it. There is no way to just mass convert everything, even if that was safe, which it isn't.
The macros are working with the new editor/format, predictably.
Even if that's the "fix", that will take many days to do, so there's not much we can do but wait for the moment and see what happens, and then if it becomes necessary start the conversions. If that happens, we will likely roll back the redirect rule and make the old wiki available again for the documentation while we do all the converting on the new side but I'm not pulling the trigger on that yet since this is very much a huge outage that would affect a whole lot of customers using add-ons.
