    It's technically possible to disable the cache but it would affect
    everyone simultaneously. The cache was mainly for performance
    reasons but, with some work, it's likely possible to eliminate the
    delay and not have much performance hit. If other people using the
    dewikify feature agree that the cache is not useful for them, we
    can look more closely at eliminating the delay. Note, that you can
    always manually clear the cache by adding "x" to the end of any
    your urls, e.g. http://quintlab.openwetware.org/x
