Can someone fix the wiki?

Concerning changes to the rules, styling, etc. As this is a new forum, feedback is appreciated.

I don't have permissions either- if I could get them, I could add some info too.

Give edit permissions to everyone and I'll moderate it, too, I guess? Your choice, Tau.

That did not pan out well last time around.

I hate to act in such a manner as to be rude, but there's a reason it was set up this way.

Pan out? You and Mercury (mebbe Tau?) were the only ones with wiki edit permissions last time.

To elaborate, giving everyone access obliterates consistency and enables users to attempt to settle disagreements by taking petty actions adverse to the whole. By limiting the gateway to the hands of a few, information on the wiki remains unbiased and non-contradictory.

I'm with Tiel, giving edit perms to everyone is a pretty bad idea.

Guys, I'm in the process of moving into an RV, so the next couple of weeks are gonna be pretty hectic for me. I'll get around to fixing this when I can, but it may take a while for me to set aside some free time to work out how MediaWiki works.

In a way, though all you need to do is to look at the old wiki to get a proof.
