461033 2006-06-07 10:51:00 Can anyone figure out how to add users to this thing?

I think DanielF was setting up the users manually for now…


The result of all this is that only DanielF, stu161204 (also offline) and myself are registered on the site. It would be nice to have some help :)

You don’t have to do it all tonight ;), I will do some more on it tomorrow & over the next few days… :) & I think DanielF may set-up more users to edit the Wiki over the next few days…

461036 2006-06-07 14:18:00 Bruce is happy for the Unofficial FAQ Wiki idea created and maintained by the PF1 users actually. It isn't part of the PressF1 site.If it becomes an unofficial PressF1 wiki then it doesn't matter whether Bruce or anyone else approves of it - it can just be done regardless. Greg (193)

and big version:

imagef1.net.nz Ditch the icky background colour, and make the "faq" font either lower case or upper case, not mixed.

461039 2006-06-07 21:12:00 If you want to make it conform to the current and temporary design trends/fads and end up looking just like every other site churned out by rule followers then go ahead. And as for mixing/nonmixing case sizes, what a load of B.S. Overbrite colors make a site look like a circus, appealing to low attention span morons. zqwerty (97)
461040 2006-06-07 22:59:00 I think whatever logo we end up using will need to go with the colour scheme / style used on the Wiki. B1naryb0y, your logo has promise but will need to ditch the background colour - it's way to "in your face". We want visitors to be concentrating on the content, not the logo. Erayd (23)
461041 2006-06-07 23:52:00 The WIKI is good, and there's one that I read and add to every once in a while .

I like the Leo Leporte WIKI because it allows anyone to read it, but only those with the password to edit it .

Now, and I might be very off base here, can there be a password set automatically by a rand(0) generator that gets e-mailed nightly or whatever time span needed to those who are active and really users of F1?

I mean that there's gotta be a way to see those names that are constant features, and those that joined three years ago to just repair or ask about one or two questions . The ones that are always here or are here a lot of the time, should get the password nightly .

The true list of current users can't be all that large . . . right?

It seems to me that anyone who would misuse the WIKI would only be someone who is already banned or just a casual user and they would not have a password to destroy it .

I cannot imagine anyone who really likes being here spamming or damaging the site . They could be banned or punished by the mods .

461042 2006-06-08 00:25:00 The Wiki (imagef1.net.nz) is already set up so that only registered users can edit. It does not take its credentials from the PressF1 server, so PM DanielF or myself with your email address to have your username added to the Wiki.

The nightly password isn't such a great idea - as there are several different levels of access, such an approach would require re-writing large portions of the MediaWiki software. It would also break edit-tracking, as it currently tracks all page edits by time and username.
