From DSL Wiki

Sorry to ask this to you, but the forums say "Permission denied". I cannot find any reason whatsoever for this, and I have waited for a long time now to see if may be my login is in some kind of "waiting list".

Even the wiki page (Forum Substitute) is dead. It would be nice to know if there is absolutely anything that I can do to get the permission to post.

This is the most annoying thing I have ever seen, for something that is run by "community".

Moderator nomination

Hi. Just want to respectfully suggest to you to consider inviting Fioddor to become an official moderator. Seems he is in fact who mostly takes care of the wiki in the everyday aspect of things. --Captain Chaos 19 November 2009 01:03 (UTC)

Spamflood

--Fioddor 17 May 2012 07:15 (UTC)-- Spam attacks are getting too heavy, so I'll set up a new policy I you don't mind: I'll start locking pages and asking contributors to provide their proposed changes in ad hoc pages. Please, let me know if you don't agree.

--Mir 17 May 2012 03:25PM (PST)-- The Spam attacks are gindeed getting heavy and are causing a roar on the IRC channel. Fioddor what do you mean by 'AD HOC' pages?

--Fioddor 18 May 2012 06:32 (UTC)-- A specific page (or a few) named wiki content request or something similar would be the only editable one(s). Then I'd copy over the valid changes. It's the same idea we use for the main page, but with a shared beta page. The robots might flood it anyway, but their effect would be then limited to that only(few) page(s). The risk to miss any content would then be restricted to new proposed content.
