VLADEK RESIGNS FROM STAFF:

Due to real life swallowing him up, Vladek has resigned from the Wiki Staff officially, but will remain unofficially to advise and offer his opinions. Thanks, Vladek.

No applications will be accepted at this time.

NEW WIKI POLICY:

The title of any character article must reflect the name on the member's dossier. If the member has a Clan name, it may be excluded from the character article's title.

Like the previous amendment to the Editing Policies that I mentioned in my last report, this is self-explanatory. If you see someone's character article with a name different from their dossier name, I suggest moving the article, or, if you don't know how to, contact a member of the Wiki Staff to do it.

After discussion with the Staff, I decided to append the following clause to the rule: "If the member has a Clan name, it may be excluded from the character article's title".

If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions about this policy, please contact me someway somehow.

DJBWIKIPEDIAN OF THE MONTH:

This was brought up by Tron last month, and the staff agreed that it would be great. Congratulations to Joseph Skirata on being awarded this honor first!

The "DJBWikipedian of the Month" award is voted on by the staff. Anyone can nominate anyone (including themselves) by sending me an email, but only staff members are allowed to vote. It is awarded monthly.

I CAN CHANGE YOU:

In the event that you change your dossier name, don't create a new account for the Wiki. In the event that you accidentally misspell your name while registering for the Wiki, and you realize afterward, don't create a new account for the Wiki. Instead, you should email me and explain your predicament. Keep the email short and sweet; a simple "Please rename the user account RebengeZ to RevengeX" would suffice.

I can rename user accounts with sheer willpower. However, I cannot delete user accounts because that requires 1000x as much willpower, and I am not that good yet.

Duplicate accounts = bad

Top Ten Wiki Reminders

Use the Show Preview button as many times as you need

Use the Save Page button once per session

Put in a category - whether for an image or the article, and make sure it exists, don't make something up.

If you upload an image, use it right away, otherwise it will be deleted if found in the Unused File bin.

Don't double redirect. That is, if you change your name, change it everywhere it's listed instead of having a number of redirects.

Read the Guidelines

Read and use Getting Started

Don't remove Maintenance tags - only Wiki staff are permitted

Don't make links for articles that don't exist (red links) - make the article first then add the link to other pages.

Take the Wiki Basics course at the Shadow Academy

Have a great week!
