its been greifed/vandalized

Where ? Can't see where it was greifed. BTW I told you it was a bad idea to have a wiki that early with everyone adding random factions there, all of this in an open wiki where everyone can do hat he wants with it. Wikis should be used mainly for describing how the mod works, maybe cannon factions and story elements, but player made factions should not be included (They are not cannon - made up by anyone who wants. Imagine if everyone who starts a one man faction will start to add crappy descriptions and pictures, it becomes a spam of useless information)

From Dovan's page- 1 s***trooper.

LOL

Why not have main factions, then user factions in a different group, but slightly hidden.

Because wiki is there to officially describe the mod, and no user factions are not part of it. If let's say one makes a faction then closes it, do you think he will bother deleting it's page on the wiki ? Do you think we'll know there is no such faction anymore ? It's unreliable and tends to make stuff look ugly and unprofessional.

off topic, go back onto on-topic now

I saw no offtopic.

I say that we change tbe wiki from fc official to fc comumity for now, as there is no actual content, nor is there an official canon.

Can always create a closed wiki exclusively for the devs to add stuff to on the webhost.

Well this is unfortunate, good thing the TELLrim page on the wiki wasn't griefed.

It looks like they left the old units below it, though. Rather considerate of them.
