Open wiki editing for high level players
« on: April 15, 2010, 07:34:50 am »

Would it be possible to log in wiki with the same username / password as in game? And only allow players with 10, 15 or other hard-to-achieve level to edit.
And then, for all misbehavior and abuse you could punish the in-game character, this way the wiki would really be from players for players.

Go to #2238wiki channel on irc.forestnet.org and say what you want to change. If you're polite you can also create an account and talk to Izual and he'll probably let you edit the wiki.

The point of the wiki itself is not letting one person to edit it, but to let all, preferably mature, audience to edit it

being a level 21 player doesn't mean you're not a troll or can speak english very well.

Maybe punishing your in-game character would deter would-be destroyers of wiki?

As long as it takes considerably more time to level new char / change your IP as to rollback all changes the user had made...
Anyway, I would like to see more comments on HOW to make wiki more accessible for editing, and what controlling mechanisms to implement, rather than whether it should be made.

Well bind wiki acc with your ingame one could prevent trolling. Simply if someone wants to help then he will have to provide his acc info like char name=login. Then if its possible someone from admin team would check his char if he is active and high lvl with this char ingame. If that char really is active (so it would be considered as a main char) then our guy will get wiki rights. If he is ok then great another guy on team but if he trolls just a little bit then drop lvl of his ingame char or eventually delete it (depending on gravity of his deeds)...

Imho its good idea.

It was something about 150 floaters and 120 centaurs back in the "old days" but there was no reputation there and "free" loot from caravans. So exp are no longer such pain in the ass to obtain but still you have to spend your time to get yourself a gun and shitload of ammo and thats not a 1 night job. Not for a no-nolifer :D. So I think that nolifers will have some nice times now but regular guys will finally get their chance too.

We are talking about wiki editing, guys ;) Concentrate, just concentrate :)

And 10 second wiki rollback for a night of grinding? Sounds fair to me :)

I would like to see more people CONTRIBUTE to the wiki instead of talking about it. Go to #2238wiki and help now and don't waste your time talking here.
