Hello! You have likely been sent this page by a [[Special:Listusers/bureaucrat|'''bureaucrat''']] either before or after receiving an account. It is '''highly advised you read the cards below'''. The information relates to your privacy and how you interact with this wiki.
<pre>
== Campaign chronology ==


If you were recently given an account, '''before doing anything''', change your password. This is done by going to [[Special:Preferences]] and clicking the "Change password" button.

All Endurance Coalition Discord members are eligible for an account and may begin the process by asking a bureaucrat. Non-Discord members ''may'' be eligible for an account if approved by a bureaucrat and Fleff. }}
 
{{InfoCard|heading=Account recovery requires a bureaucrat|content=If any editor loses access to their account, a bureaucrat will need to help with recovery. There is no email address password resets.}}
 
{{InfoCard|heading=Certain permissions are not available to all editors|content=While few in number, there are a couple of permissions that are not given to all editors:  
 
* '''Administrator''' — Can delete pages/files/logs, block editors from editing, and protect pages/files so only specific editors can edit them.
* '''Bureaucrat''' — Can assign and revoke permissions, edit accounts, and create new accounts.
* '''Interface administrator''' — Can edit pages which dictate the look of the website and import pages from other MediaWiki instances.
 
Exhaustive list of permissions available at [[Special:ListGroupRights]]. Any editor with an account can request any permission by speaking with a bureaucrat. Bureaucrats reserve the right to accept and deny requests at will. History editing other wikis (especially Wikimedia sites), knowledge of the war game, consistent editing on this wiki, and willingness to learn all are factors which influence the granting of permission requests.

{{InfoCard|heading=You own your edits|content=All editors retain full copyright ownership of their edits. This is not standard practice, as many wikis make all edits released under a free license. This is done due to the rules of the war game not being released under such a license.}}
{{InfoCard|heading=Editors grant this website a permanent, irrevocable license to retain and display their edits|content=Once an edit is published, the editor may not demand it's removal. They give this website the permanent and irrevocable license to retain and display it. This is done to avoid an editor who may have a falling out with the game or the Endurance Coalition attempting to disrupt the wiki through demanding their content's removal.<br/><br/> Polite, reasonable, and unobtrusive requests for content to be removed are likely to be honored.}}
{{InfoCard|heading=Your IP address is logged|content=The software which runs this wiki logs your IP address to it's database every time you login to your account. Some wikis use a particular tool to allow native viewing of this data. This wiki purposefully does not install this tool to respect the privacy of all editors. However, any person in the Endurance Coalition with access to the database of this wiki can still find this information.}}
 
}}
 
{{InfoCard|heading=Removing information is not simple|content=Every edit, the content of the edit, who made the edit, and when the edit was made is publicly logged. Every version of a page after every edit is similarly logged. This means that simply editing out information and saving changes will not actually get rid of it. Anyone can view the page history and see the content anyway.<br/><br/>To properly address this, the information is still to be edited out, but then a wiki administrator must be notified so they can delete the edit from the public archives. '''This notification should be done privately, such as via Discord DM, to avoid the [[wikipedia:Streisand effect|Streisand effect]]'''. Certain automated filters are in place that will detect when information that is likely inappropriate to add has been introduced. The filter will either warn the editor to exercise caution or disallow the edit entirely.}}
