Please don't vandalise [[The OLPC Wiki|our fair wiki]]. Thank you. |
|||
== Reporting suspected vandalism == |
|||
Please leave a message on the [[OLPC_talk:Vandalism|Talk]] page and someone will look into it. |
|||
== Persistent vandals == |
|||
We primarily have persistent nonsense-string vandals; the occasional wiki-troll who signs up with an annoying name; and one or two page blankers. |
|||
An analysis of the block logs (as a surrogate measure for vandal activity) is linked off of this page [[OLPC:Bot_Interest_Group]]. The hope is to get some people intersted in adapting some of the fine countervandalism work that has been done on other MediaWiki installations. Unfortunately, the analysis suggests that vandalism is a problem that has begun to get worse in significant ways and that some automated means will be required to defend the wiki. |
|||
== Tools we should add == |
|||
* Auto-unblanker : revert page blanking and other dramatic changes, when done by new or anon users |
|||
* Auto-signature : sign non-minor page additions made by anons with their IP (existing script) |
|||
* Instructions for rc-watching tools (cf wikihow and wikipedia tools) |
|||
== Templates == |
|||
We need a set of "please don't vandalize" templates, for contribs who are actively involved (and not just bots), but vandalizing; it's sometimes better to warn and encourage people to become contributors than to block on sight... and easier to do this when there's a template handy. Without checking wp templates (which are a bit more involved), I started substing [[Template:nov]]. --[[User:Sj|Sj]] [[User talk:Sj|<font style="color:#f70; font-size:70%">talk</font>]] 10:11, 24 April 2008 (EDT) |
