Confused? Yeah, me too. Appears to work in similar ways - presumably you chose that over a Wiki to have more control over the final appearance/content? > Well, I will definitely put some content in an email etiquette page, or > maybe what not to do in emails.

I made sure of that one. It doesn't have to be done by me though, the versioning is accessible from the Wiki itself - the Information About Page link. If you notice someone has crippled a page, roll it back to a previous version. If a page has had all the content removed, then the procedure is: Add some dumb content - anything will do, including "Who nabbed my page!" Save the page Go to the information about this page link Click the version number immediately previous to the deletion. (This should be 2 numbers back - the first in the list is the dumb content, the second one back is the deletion and the third version back is the one you want.) The page is displayed and a button appears asking if you want to restore this version. Click it and it's done. Easy. People with small enough brains to think that such deletions are 'fun' will soon get bored of having the previous content restored so easily. It's NOT up to me to do all this - if you write a page and you later notice it has been corrupted or deleted, YOU restore it. If anyone else notices a complete deletion, please follow the procedure above and restore the last decent version. > > -Kai - -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.codehelp.co.uk http://www.dclug.org.uk http://www.wewantbroadband.co.uk/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+gfZ1iAEJSii8s+MRArocAJ441fl9chV3LTdBJx4kwiB/0pF3uQCdH1AO mahI4CHBTuR84VMz+nC8390= =nFMg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
