copyright

what is the copyrigt policy for contributions to this wiki. pd, gfdl, creative commons??? I think pd would be the best.

Well, NSwiki:Copyrights doesn't exist yet, but NSwiki:Policy says NSwiki is licenced under the GFDL. -- Crimmer 14:29, 5 Oct 2004 (GMT)
Oh, and please sign when leaving notes on talk pages. You can do this by inserting ~~~ (3 tildes) at the end of your message, or if you want to include a timestamp, ~~~~ (4 tildes). -- Crimmer 14:46, 5 Oct 2004 (GMT)
What Crimmer said. However, I'm not planning on running around and enforcing my GFDL rights - basically, steal what you want, as long as you acknowledge NSwiki. --Goobergunchia 19:03, 5 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Added link to Nation and Region templates

This seemed to be a fairly important new-user item, so I thought it belonged on the main page. I still have to delve to find the InfoBox links on the help pages. It needs to be a one-click wonder. -- Frisbeeteria 03:05, 6 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Put the New User section in its own table -- Frisbeeteria 03:39, 6 Oct 2004 (GMT)

iLoad

So vhat is the deal vith zee upload, eh? Will we ever be allowed to upload things to the Wiki to store here, or is it just one of those things that we're never going to get for it's too complicated, uses too much space or cost too much money, eh? Just curious. Fodian Federa 21:08, 20 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Uploading doesn't work because the PHP that NSwiki is running on is in safe mode - I can't fix it, although I may ask my ISP to. --Goobergunch|? 22:18, 20 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Completely irrelevant

Just wanted to make sure that everyone knew that today, 25 October 2004, according to the little main page counter, NSwiki officially had 1337! pages. :) Iansisle 23:35, 25 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Slight Typo

In the "tip of the day" cell, the URL pointing to the Recent Pages section of the wiki has an underscore (ala recent_changes) rather than it being all one word (recentchanges). This results in a broken URL that points to an invalid page. Since I am not of sufficient privilages to edit the main page, I thought I'd point it out here. --The Mindset 20:04, 28 Nov 2004 (GMT)

Since the content is actually linked to Template:totd, you do actually have the right to edit that ... but I'll grab it. Thanks. → Fris Θtalk 20:11, 28 Nov 2004 (GMT)

A Bit Redundant?

I'm just curious as to why the Main Page is also the featured page on the Main Page? It seems a bit redundant, as the "featured article" just repeats information that can be seen by looking directly to the right. Is this a blunder or was it supposed to happen like that? Just curious. Khen 13:08, 1 Apr 2005 (GMT)

Pardon, directly below, not to the right. Khen 13:11, 1 Apr 2005 (GMT)

Now that it has finished, I can safely say, April fools! Rechze(talk) 23:26, 1 Apr 2005 (GMT)

New Featured Article?

We've had the current Featured Article for a while. Anyone feel up to finding a new one? Khrrck 23:30, 15 Apr 2005 (GMT)

Instructions for doing so are at NSwiki:Featured articles/Archive/changing the featured article. You don't have to be a sysop to do it, and I got tired of being the only one who ever did it. → Fris Θtalk 19:14, 16 Apr 2005 (GMT)
Though I have nothing to suggest (specifically of an article), I think we should have something other than a conlang as our featured article -- at least, the past two were. Matsu 00:34, 27 October 2005 (GMT)

New Tip of the Day

Maybe it's time for a change? I was particularly thinking NSwiki:Tip_of_the_day_archive#Sneak_preview might be a good reminder.Gruen2alk 23:03, 26 October 2005 (GMT)
