arsenal_2111 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Tbh I think 3 is too many, if someone is trying to ruin work made by people trying to help the community they don't deserve rights to edit it even after one warning. My opinion, of course. Can I ask again who has 'reserved' doing various country pages? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I ask again who has 'reserved' doing various country pages? It is simple to undo the edit once we cop it but maybe you are right. I put in 3 as that is the max I would have. There is 5 on Wikipedia which I think is far too much. Obviously 3 is my opinion as well so if more people want less then that is fine. Oh yeah, we have lost links to them from the home page now as I changed the home page. I think rancer was written beside Canada but that was all. The rest were red links but without a name beside them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamilton162 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 One warning and then the second time ban them. We can't afford to have idiots deleting all of our hard work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I'm on jod's side with this one. I think what this guy did wasn't so bad, plus it's easily reversible. One warning & then a ban would be too strict imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Also I was just reading on Wikipedia and we should not permanently block an ip address as they can sometimes be dynamic (which means they change) which means anyone (even one of us if we have a dynamic ip) could be blocked if they got assigned that ip address in the future and their ip could change which means they could still access it.

jod123 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 If they are on a mission to abuse it for a night or something though eventually we should block them but then unblock the ip address at a later time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamilton162 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Fair enough Alan, but for repeated offences and bad first time deletions/useless edits, give them a level 2 warning at least. That way everyone will be happy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-evo Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Fantastic work lads. I think we should give two warnings and a ban, myself. If they have two warnings it clearly shows that the user is in it for the laughs so we might as well ban his IP, then unban it after 3 days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnefc22 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Not much has happened today. It's been one of the slowest development days since the start, mainly due to the all-guns firing start though. Can we have a vote on the layout option? Because I do dislike the new option. I understand that we don't wan't a major list but at least could we have the links like 'Gameplay' and 'Technical' etc. in a list going down the page.

You want the links from the banner moved out of it to be like a list on the page? Is that the only change you want? I prefer them in the banner to be honest but I'll follow the majority.

jod123 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 What kind of content do you want adding to here? Nothing there as that is a template. On short articles you just type {{stub}} to add in that template which adds in the text in the template.

jod123 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 This page is just slightly pointless is it not. I don't know how to delete it so if someone could please do that. That is because only sysops (admins) can delete articles. I don't think you would delete that though as that is a redirect. It means if somebody goes to Dynamo Kyev they will actually go to the Dynamo Kyiv article. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On wiki, i just type "mls") Oh, and rob, I'm already starting to think about making some individual wiki player pages, from the uncreated red link pages of de Guzman and DeRosario on the Canadian page.
