Yes, the intention was to add a header to the top of all wiki pages
saying that the wiki had definitively moved, and that the old wiki was
locked.

The wiki got locked, but the deprecated message was only added to the
front page.

If there is content in the old wiki which should be moved (after all, I
exercised some editorial judgement on content that was of a good enough
quality to move), then please move & edit it. It's better to create
useful new pages than to refer to the deprecated wiki.

In general, one-line wiki pages aren't very welcome :) Perhaps a page
about SSH in general, which talks about X relaying, but also (say) how
to set up an ssh tunnel, etc?
