The domain lookup for linux-mips.org fails for quite some time now. Hence, webpages, the patchwork instance and Ralf Baechle's email there is not reachable anymore. Remove all references of webpages from linux-mips.org in MAINTAINERS, and refer to the kernel.org's linux-mips patchwork instance instead.

The information is still valuable. https://web.archive.org/web/20190704000315/https://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/DECstation
If that information is valuable, how about adding that into the kernel documentation page? If linux-mips.org wiki is back, we will keep this link; if not, we should get a copy of that information into the documentation (where it can survive some time) or we simply drop it. Putting a web.archive.org link into MAINTAINERS sounds like a really bad idea to me. Lukas
