Given another recent rash of deletions here (apparently caused by contributors not asking for permission), I can't help but think that things need to be tightened up somewhat around here in that regard. I know I had to ask Thomas to remove some material (some worldgen programming code) based on my work that was adapted and posted here without my permission a couple of years ago, and DonM's timeline stuff was apparently put up without his permission a while back too, and now there's this latest batch of issues. Granted, I'm not really involved much with the wikia (I've really only edited some Spica Publishing info), but I wouldn't want to see the place shut down because people are being slack about getting permission to post things.

(sorry, should be a question mark after "Tightening things up around here" in the subject line, I didn't mean it to come out so forceful!).

Given another recent rash of deletions here (apparently caused by contributors not asking for permission), I can't help but think that things need to be tightened up somewhat around here in that regard. I know I had to ask Thomas to remove some material (some worldgen programming code) based on my work that was adapted and posted here without my permission a couple of years ago, and DonM's timeline stuff was apparently put up without his permission a while back too, and now there's this latest batch of issues. Granted, I'm not really involved much with the wikia (I've really only edited some Spica Publishing info), but I wouldn't want to see the place shut down because people are being slack about getting permission to post things.

One other thing I'd strongly recommend is the block unregistered users from posting material - that way if anyone posts material that they shouldn't post, they can be tracked down.

Just some thoughts anyway... Evildrganymede 00:40, July 8, 2010 (UTC)
