We should strongly consider adding functionality to the farm management extension to allow wiki users to create new wikis on their own. To address any issues with wiki spam, we could probably set a log that would strictly keep track of all wikis created by each user and in general. We could probably set up some sort of bot to handle bureaucrat promotion on the wiki for the creator.

We should strongly consider adding functionality to the farm management extension to allow wiki users to create new wikis on their own. To address any issues with wiki spam, we could probably set a log that would strictly keep track of all wikis created by each user and in general. We could probably set up some sort of bot to handle bureaucrat promotion on the wiki for the creator. Inquisitor Sasha (talk) 22:33, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

I believe, to the best of my knowledge, that this idea was proposed amongst the stewards at the conception of Orain, but was turned down in favor of the current method in order to allow the Organization to monitor wiki creation and avoid creating "useless" or otherwise "dangerous" wikis (i.e. illegal, promoting illegal activity, etc.). Yes, we could go through and delete those wikis, but it's best if they aren't created in the first place. Good idea, though. If others have a differing opinion, please feel free to share it and possibly some solutions to the problem(s) with automatic wiki creation. -- Joe G. (Talk) 23:44, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
