hehe - if there's people you dont want editing the wiki, you can just stick a space on the end of their username.

The wiki uses the usergroups from the forums so for example if i ban someone on the forum they wont have write access to the wiki, it works both ways

so that makes it easier for us to moderate and control vandalism.

Added a placeholder for Dundee as well

sweet. i'll be writing some hip hop related articles tonight.

njw · 26th June 2006, 03:24 PM

i started writing an indie rock article type thing...

Just spent my lunch hour putting holder pages for each of the Dundee venues and sorting out some categorisation.

One problem Ive had:

On the Dundee page I tried to add links to the Categories of Dundee_Bands etc but I cant see how to add a link to a category rather than include it in the category

there is an update/addon being released soon for the wiki which will make it easier to add content, almost like how you post replies and threads on UGS

That'll make it easier for the less tech savvy of us to contribute knowledge.

I'm disappointed with the uptake on the wiki. Is this another potentially valuable feature that looks to be failing?

Current mood : I cant be arsed.
