SysopEdits

Moderator Page

I thought that perhaps the moderators should have somewhere to discuss certain guidelines, particularly with respect to blocks/bans etc. In my opinion this is better than all of us having different views on what to do!

Any thoughts? Add them below if you want. I've made it so that only sysops can edit this page - it may also be an idea to add it to your watchlist so you can easily see what's going on.

Old or resolved discussions should go in the Archive.

An Autumn Clean

I've tidied up some pages that were looking a bit messy, and had out of date material (basically the following):

HowToEdit

Community Portal

News

And a few others, including this one of course!

Also created archives for the "out of date" discussions, all of which are linked to from the original page(s).

(Apologies for the horrendous mess I've made of recent changes :S)

Blocks/bans

I've created a new bans page with the guidelines discussed here, seems acceptable. If in doubt check out the bans page first so there's some consistency in decisions.

I've also started a page regarding what constitutes vandalism. For both these new pages please jump in and add/edit anything that needs doing!

Moved to Archive

Main website

Has anyone asked the school to put a link to this wiki on the actual school website? I'll do it if you want (most mods seem to have left!); but I was thinking that if we do that it'll increase the prominence of the wiki loads; and we'll hopefully get a load more visitors.

How to make your signature awesome

I only just realised you could do this.

1. Go to 'Preferences'
2. Check the 'Use raw signatures' box.
3. In the 'nickname' box, type your name + a link (as you want it to appear). e.g [[User:Jonathan Parton|Jonny]]
4. Follow it with <sup> .
5. Put something like [[Special:Listusers/sysop|mod]]. Or whatever you want to appear.
6. Type </sup>.
7. Press save.
8. Whenever you sign, it now comes up like this: Jonny ^mod 17:37, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
