The Wiki

Jesus Prime · Post by **Jesus Prime** » Tue May 16, 2006 5:04 pm

Just a few points:

1 - I feel this could do with a board of its own, like the ill-fated radio show.
2 - I would like to moderate the wiki and board, as I feel I could co-ordinate the project quite well.
3 - What does everyone feel is the general consensus for 'canon' Mythos tales? I personally feel that Lovecraft's work should form the definitive, and anything that can be added to that (without contradicting it) from the works of his contemporaries should be used, and possibly anything created by Temple authors.

No need to have one sole Admin, but I feel if there's going to be any, I should be one.
I'm working on the Dagon article now, once I get a decent framework we can fine tune it a bit more.

Thats good, but we need two or three Admins on the Wikijust in case one is busy with something else.

Jesus Prime · Post by **Jesus Prime** » Tue May 16, 2006 5:28 pm

Yeah, so you, me, and probably Al.

Yog-Sothoth · Post by **Yog-Sothoth** » Tue May 16, 2006 5:29 pm

Yeah, that'll work, considering your always on and ive got nothing to do after 4:00, that would work! also, we need the feature to upload files to the Wiki.

Yeah, I figure Al should be in charge of coding it, and us on content.

Exactly.

I will create a Wiki forum section right now, and move this post to it.

Both of you are going to be Admins once I figure out how to do it. I am glad you have used Wiki software before, because I have not.

I cannot even see (at first look) where to manage users, or even do admin-type stuff.

I am looking into that right now though. Do both of you have accounts setup already? If so, what are the user names?

Just check out the FAQ for a Wiki on Google or something, betetr yet, i'll find one.

Post by **Aleister** » Tue May 16, 2006 6:22 pm

I am looking around. MediaWiki is the software I used.

I had already seen the page that explains how to set user permissions by manually editing the database, but I figured there must surely be some sort of interface to let me do this.

Apparently not

So I did it manually in the database. It should be all set

I'm there as Jesus Prime. You should be able to search for our user pages, or just look at the Recent Changes page.
