I am now being banned for editing my own pages. I think that is going a bit too far don't you think?!

The wiki doesn't allow for banning of one area whilst still allowing access to others; it's all or nothing. As you can't keep your fingers off of other peoples pages, the only safe solution is to ban you.
If you don't like that, well... Perhaps it's a lesson learned?

ok... [censored]... I have been editing my pages and those concerned to me only...
Often doing it from work where I am not sure how long I can be on.. so I save after each change... And I am rather precice... occasionally going over them with a spelling checker.
I can see that I am now the scapegoat of this wiki...

Being a scapegoat is when its something you didn't do.
The system KNOWS it was you. If you cannot admit that you were blatantly in the wrong here then no, its not unreasonable.

Disciplinary actions have only been fully implemented. Your ban is for 10 weeks, for forcing edits onto others.
Well my pages haven't been edited mostly because I never seem to update my pages 
But Liz I've seen this happen before in other wiki's and it's gone farther than this. You edit pages without the proper permission; you get banned. That's a very fair wiki rule, don't you think?
You coulda got a perma ban. I know some other Wiki makers would do that.
In rectifying Eric's damaging mass data modifications, I propose to remove article pages duplicated from category pages. The difficulty will be discerning which pages where originally meant as articles and which were meant as categories. In this case, one solution is this: I make all affected pages into category pages and if your page is intended as an article, simply copy the data from the category page and paste it into a new article page. You can then empty your old category page and leave the message "Please Delete". Supergroup pages are obviously better functioned as category pages, but consider Business pages, Location pages, Item pages and you start to realise the stupidity of Eric's actions. Do we agree on this resolve, any other ideas?
I thought the bot that was run was able to undo all of Eric's changes?

I don't think it worked FFM so I'm looking into other ways of doing this. Like I said, I can edit all location, items and business pages back into articles. The few pages that were originally categories can be remade quite easily.
As mentioned, out of mine, The Krimzon Guard page should remain as a Category, please Pious. The Article can go. Thanks in advance =]

My stress level has risen another notch.
Can the now blank Cortex Technolgies Ltd article page be made to redirect to the Category of the same name? All previous links on my pages are now broken by our ever vigilant, pedantic....idjit meddler. I'll save the flaming for when I can do it in person... -seethes-

[/ QUOTE ]That would be Pious (aka Admin) this time. My Benedict Trust page has also been deleted (as part of the clean-up) which I shall be reconstructing soon.
As far as the clean-up goes (and this is only my opinion) only Supergroups benefit from being sub-categories and everything else was fine as an article page (Items, Locations, Businesses, etc.).
I will say that I prefer The Benedict Trust to be an article but I also make use of the Category:The Benedict Trust page as well. While it was a simple digest, I hoped to expand it into an info page as if being viewed by a visitor.
Oh and to redirect pages just use the following:
<font class="small">Code:[/color]<hr /><pre> #REDIRECT [[pagename]] </pre><hr /> Subsitute pagename for whatever you want (Category:Cortex Technolgies Ltd in your case)

No, Pious hasnt touched it. The last changes in the log were made by our beloved friend Steven Strange.
Also, I tried redirect, and it didnt work =/

This I agree with. Techbot, I did remove the duplicated article pages under supergroups, including Cortex Technologies and kept all the remaining category pages. I didn't know your page was a bridge, sorry I should have checked. I've 'undeleted' it now so it should be fine.

Hello folks.
Okay, I am rubbish at doing exciting things with the few pages I have but, even more embarrassingly, I am at a loss as to putting pictures up. Seriously.
Is there a handy tutorial for idiots like myself? 
Thank you Mr Hairy
You're quite welcome.
Hmm.. read through it. Tried it.. Ok I did get the picture up. However I cant get it to be bigger (and fill out the rest of the white) Did try to fix this by uploading 1 picture that i resized (it still showed the original image). Then i uploaded another image (different one) and still the page shows the first image.
Page is Consort
Wonder what I can do about the issue. (Mod help in correcting issues or advise from my fellow writers please? )

Upload the file you want under a slightly different name and adjust your page's link accordingly? That's what I just resorted to a couple of times when I ran into that problem.
(Yeah, probably not ideal, like, but!)
Sam: "My mind is a swirling miasma of scintillating thoughts and turgid ideas."
Max: "Me too."
Stuff
Interesting.
I've found that the best way to handle those bar pics is to manually resize the source image to exactly 240 pixels wide. The bar will fix it that wide (normally).
There's something a bit wacky going on there anyway, since the image you get when you click through isn't the one being displayed. The white border is there because it's in the original image. You need to crop it, then resize it to 240px wide.
Disclaimer: The above may be humerous, or at least may be an attempt at humour. Try reading it that way.

cropping worked. Thanks. One picture down.. more to go

Fellow unionites! The time has come again to decide which is your favourite page for December.

I quite like Random's Leah...
Created a new page for my Ninja/FF Huriasan. Don't have time to put a backstory and all, so Character Box and Gattribute is all I got.
