User talk:FlyingBridge

From The Wiki Fire
Jump to navigation Jump to search

I am going to launch a redesign of the front page (found at Redesign:Main Page) for tomorrow, when I will be sending out an all-campus e-mail about the site. I am writing on all the editors' talk pages so I can get their thoughts and changes. Check it out and make changes as you see fit. Let me know if it is good or bad.Tfooq 19:10, 13 May 2007 (CDT)

Our First Vandal

To: all sysops. - The Wiki Fire has had a coming of age today. It had it's first big vandal. An anonymous user started deleting content and drawing penises on pages and things like that. Brian Camozzi caught it and alerted me. He and Andy Fitz worked to fix the problems and all changes have been rolled back. As sysops, you all have the privilege to ban users and IPs. The problem is that Knox only has a handful of IPs, so we cannot really ban IPs like other wikis can. However, if vandalism is in progress, you can ban that IP to see if the user gets bored and goes away. Just remember to unblock it after a half hour or something. Anyway, the site is entering puberty, so be on the look out for irrational emotional outbursts.Tfooq 22:55, 18 May 2007 (CDT)
