Why did you remove the sound files?[edit]

I just found out you removed them and I'd like to know why. I was hoping to listen to a few. 96.224.228.129 05:30, 21 October 2017 (MSK)

The audio files for the quotes were removed from the wiki because they were creating an excessive demand overload on the server, rendering the whole wiki unusable. The wiki software isn't designed to handle such a large number of audio files, so a much different hosting solution, likely completely external, is necessary here.

I see. Can I still find them somewhere? Thanks. 96.224.228.129 18:56, 21 October 2017 (MSK)
The previous sounds are not currently hosted on-line at another location. Apart from simply browsing through the game's audio files, I'm not aware of any other site that has them individually uploaded for listening. Marphy (talk) 19:55, 21 October 2017 (MSK)
I see. Well, one last question. I added this link to my favorites before it was deleted. Why does it still work? [1] 96.224.228.129 20:09, 21 October 2017 (MSK)
A few sound clips were retained for illustrative purposes. That sound file is used in Dr. Magnusson's article as a voice sample for the character. Marphy (talk) 20:56, 21 October 2017 (MSK)
