Think of me as a tool

[LHX]

i say we let it get spammed

we can always revert to a old copy


plus between the half dozen + of us, i doubt it would be fucked up for too long

Once I figger out how to make other users SysOps, it won't really be a major problem. Trouble is all the damned documentation appears to be out of date, or in a non-complete transitional phase.

Okay got that figured and registered an account for LMNO (ygm).

[Triple Zero]

good call.


now for someone to sift through all our ramblings and sort them out there 

[Rev. St. Syn, KSC (Ret.)]

I'll host the bastard, but I ain't doing that schtick too.

LMNO and RWHN are both SysOps (admins in Wiki speak) and can both add new user accounts and do a whole raft of other things. I am a SysOp by default of having installed the thing and have access to the database. Some operations can only be done with db access.

i forgot who it was that semi-volunteered (read: everybody else did a step back)

thurnez? or prof cramulus?

btw, did you get the latest version 1.9.3 of mediawiki? because this just in -- if not, don't sweat it, from reading about it, it's not much of a big deal really. though it would ROCK if someone were to use such a thing and create a wikipedia worm/virus ^__^

[Rev. St. Syn, KSC (Ret.)]

Upgrading to 1.9.3 now, D'oh.


And, just a thought:

[Triple Zero]

"black iron prison" in latin?

cool, if you don't think the word "niger" will put off too many people on the wrong foot

[Rev. St. Syn, KSC (Ret.)]

Yeah, one letter out - was going to leave it up to the consensus.

"Atrum" could be substituted in a pinch, it means "dark".

[P3nT4gR4m]

The possiblity that some stupid fucks will freak out and scream 'racism' is good enough for me.

[Rev. St. Syn, KSC (Ret.)]

Good enough to leave it as is?

[P3nT4gR4m]

Hell yeah!

[Triple Zero]

maybe add some clarification for the terminally stoopid?

[P3nT4gR4m]

I prefer the old fashioned "give 'em enough rope" approach. Best not waste a golden opportunity for idiots to make themselves look stupid.

No way should we be worried that we're using a thousands of years dead language that happens to look like a modern-day epithet.  I say let it stand; if people are too dumb to figure it out, fuck 'em.


Now if you'll excuse me, I'm about to dump 3GB worth of Kaballah text into the wiki.

That as my feeling, though to be perfectly honest it did slightly scare me - society is making me a pc wussy boy. Will get it on the BIP page asap.

Swote!

I think.
