Hi Sarah,
The wrong content is on this page – it used to contain information on designing a local currency which is what we are doing.
This was good info and it would be good to see it back on the web

Hi Sam,
Thanks for letting us know about this. We moved this to the new site as part of archiving the material on our previous wiki site. I cannot find anything else by googling or otherwise searching, so I will pass this query on to the Brixton pound people.
