Spam
After the events described on the page War on spam, we are still experiencing vandalism of the OniGalore:Community Portal page. I don't know whether to call it spam, because it doesn't seem to be advertising anything, but it's bad and I'm sure we all want to stop it. Let's discuss this further on the War on spam page.
- Iritscen, 28 March 2008
Spamwatch update (4/16/08): Seems that it's been a couple weeks since we had spambot activity. Not long enough to get our hopes up that it's done, but at least the bots are on a break or something. At this rate there's no need to block registration or anything.
- Iritscen, 16 April 2008
Actually, not many people seem to have noticed, but anonymous edits have been disabled as of April 4, 2008. The only spam bots we can have now are of the kind that register a user name. So relax, but keep your fingers crossed, as that kind of escalation will be likely as the wiki gets more popular. Spam and its escalation is the key reason why I am not making a point of boosting our search engine rankings...

- Speaking of not so current events:
- "Offsets -- They're tedious to add, but they're generally more helpful than the color map when actually viewing/editing a file"
- Are there any OBD pages without offsets left?
- I had a quick look and found no OBD pages without offsets. There's some inconsistent "types" for data fields (but nothing dramatic), not enough plain-language headers stating "what this file is for" and "what links here" when applicable. Also, typically confusing and/or insufficient documentation whenever the format gets complicated (PAR3 and such)... The BINA pages are still lacking nice-looking menus from level0_Tools.
