Wiki Vandal / Discussion
Sub-page of WikiVandal
Nico: What kind of behaviour should people adopt when such defacement attempts appear?
Arno: If you are the first one after a defacement, then you can revive the page (you need to set "deshi" status as your wiki experience in UserPreferences). If you are a "deshi" then click on edit-page and you will see a link below the text-area called "Revive previously archived version" Click there and you should get the original page. If this doesn't work (too many versions saved meanwhile) then only librarians or admins can revive the page (through the info&history page). HolIgor: There is one point. Several times when I pressed save button all context of the page disappeared. It happened only with Netscape on my UNIX box, never with IE under Windows or Netscape under Linux. I restored the page immediately, but not everybody knows how. I think that is the bug of the browser that fails to send the text to the server at the moment when old record has been deleted. Anonymous: Don't count the filter at "lewiston.k12.id.us" This is a school server, and I am not responsible for 900 students. (Sebastian:) This is an interesting point to discuss: So who is responsible? Can students just do what they want? Should someone who is responsible for a server be able to reveal the name of someone who misuses it? ariel: I think it would be fair to say that whilst school teachers and administrations should try their best to stop their students misusing the internet, the schools should not have to bear 100% of the responsibility. Things like this (and perhaps things in general) only work if everyone is given at least a little responsibility...
