Do we know who has administrative powers on this Wiki? --User:ItsWalky


There's been a vandal who's screwed around with a few pages, and this is probably going to come up fairly often. The wikipedia page on reverting[1] is something that most people should read, so you know how to put things back to how they were, when something like that happens aggain. --Suki Brits 03:04, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Contact in case of problems

As you haven't an active admin at the moment, I've left contact information on my user page and will call in regularly to see if you need any help. If anyone knows why someone is blanking pages, that would be useful. Are there copyright issues? Has stuff been copied without full (and GFDL compatible) permission? If so, we may have to remove and rewrite the pages. I'll pop back tomorrow to see if there has been more blanking. -- sannse (talk) 16:12, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

That awful picture and the name

Although secondary to the vandalism, we have an admin-type who can deal with the problems left by the creator. There's a couple locked things that we can't change:

  • The title is misspelled. The computer's name is "Teletraan-1", and we should really have the title reflect a name that 'isn't' the wrong spelling. We fixed it on the main page, but it still shows up in the titles of every page.
  • The wiki symbol in the top left is horrendously ugly and kinda embarassing. And not only is it hideous, but it also reflects the same problem as the title: Teletraan-1 is spelled incorrectly. I made a new image for it, but it's not too great either, and I'd like to invite any artist to do something better.

We should get some other people's thoughts on both these matters. If we can get some sort of consensus going, we can probably get both of these matters fixed. --Suki Brits 18:36, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
