BRGS Wiki:Current events

BRGS Wiki Events and Changes Vandalism Following a complaint, a massive "purge" has taken place on this site. We think that the majority of insulting comments have been removed, but if we have missed one please TELL US. EDIT: Furthermore, DO NOT think that using the school IPs makes you harder to block and thus allowed to vandalise - it doesn't, as you will soon see. Chris mod 10:31, 30 November 2006 (UTC) Updated Pages Several pages have been updated by Chris: this page, HowToEdit and the community portal have been changed and/or cleared out. Please take the time to read the new guidelines on the wiki. These sorts of "dynamic" pages now also have archives attached to them - go to the page concerned for a link. We have also created a new page at Moderation Requests for normal users to request moderation services and to report vandalism. Finally, we encourage all users to get an account! This has several benefits attached to it; and also means you can take credit for any contributions under that name. Jonny talk • mod 22:33, 29 November 2006 (UTC) Policy on Banning Due to a small amount of "vandalism" a new policy on bans has been introduced. Please read this so that it is clear what's acceptable and what doesn't! Also, to emphasise a point, if you make a mistake and something "weird" happens, please tell us by writing a note in the Community Portal. Accidents happen, and we won't mind if you tell us if and when you mess up! Chris mod 15:34, 29 November 2006 (UTC) Updates on Uploads It appears that uploads will not be working again until mid-December. Watch this space. Chris mod 18:19, 28 November 2006 (UTC) Legends A new legends area has been developed. It is now divided into three categories - Teachers, Students, and "Other". If you would like to nominate someone for "legend" status, please discuss it in the community portal if you want to gauge reaction to your plan. Chris, 23 November 2006 Accounts We strongly recommend that you create an account if you haven't already done so, as this gives you several more options to play with. It's completely free and takes roughly ten seconds... Chris, 18 November 2006 "Old news" has been moved to the Archive

At BRGS Recommended Visits The Community Portal is a great place to suggest ideas and gauge reaction to your plans. The editing guidelines should be read before you dive in, as you can get some great tips on how to format your work, and avoid the wrath of the moderators! If you can think of a way to improve this site, please suggest it in the Wiki Discussion area. Any requests for moderation of pages can be made in the Moderation Requests section. The moderators can be contacted in several ways - check here for ways to do this! Archive All "old" or redundant content is now in the Archive.
