Nice job btw - Crispin

Thanks! Its nice to see an active admin on a smaller wiki, and one that welcomes new users is even better! Zell Faze 06:44, 13 May 2014 (EDT)

Re:Hey you!

Hello! Sorry about the lay-off man, that's a terrible situation.

Would love to collab on the Help Desk project, though updates have been delayed (for vague and mysterious reasons) and we're still on MediaWiki v1.18.1 for now. I need to call Crispin when my phone is working to get more project details, but he basically wants a place where others online can direct new players to get questions answered about Amtgard/rules/culture/etc without the ire people often receive on the main Facebook page. Something with a similar feel to the Wikipedia Teahouse, maybe? We're just starting discussions and planning and would love input. Ricken (talk) 19:12, 11 April 2015 (EDT)

Crispin will be attending FOF, and will be hanging out in Wardancer camp. I've talked to him often off-wiki, and he knows just barely more about the update than I do, but he's in the most contact with Roger. Admins have made both of them aware of the need for an update, as well as the need for Parser Functions and a better Captcha system, but no word on any of that.
Most current admins don't like to communicate on-wiki, so if there's anything from the Facebook group that's important I'll make sure you are made aware.
We are just wrapping up discussions between exCOM, admins, and merchants about our policy for allowing merchants to have individual pages. Crispin's summary of the discussion: "So then I think we have come to even ground with Single pages listed by the merchant category on the front page, that are (other than normal admin patrol) maintained by the author of the page. I would think for regulations we will need to restrict any merchant page to only being made by the merchant, unlike other wiki pages where anyone can make it for another.... The pages will need to have a disclaimer posted in chief, that Amt inc. and the wiki are not affiliated with the merchants in anyway. The pages can have pictures of products (by using external links) but can not have prices displayed, pages will also be restricted from customer feed back or discussion of sales, this will include the pages 'talk page.'"
I don't think you missed much more than that while you've been away. Ricken (talk) 00:02, 12 April 2015 (EDT)
