Blog and Account Lock-out

For convenience's sake, I moved the wiki news page to this blog. This will also be a log of all administrative actions taken under the new deletion policies, which I'll write soon.

There the rather large problem of a snafu causing some people to not be able to log in has been fixed. As it turned out, the problem was that the user pages were not being correctly identified as such and were causing conflicts with the user accounts that creating them. To create a user page, you need to have "~&This page is a part of CategoryUsers." at the bottom of the page (without quotes). This will let your user page work the way it should.

Minor CSS Change

I thought that I had screwed up the wiki when I first attempted to implement this. But as it turns out, I was editing an old version of the CSS, so I was really baffled when the background color screwed up.

Anyway, the new CSS now has support for the Linux font Bitstream Vera Sans - that's the font that the wiki will be displayed in if Verdana is missing. This means that the wiki will look nicer on systems which are missing Verdana. Of course, if you're missing that too, then it displays in Tahoma.

Also, I changed it so that links pointing to missing articles now appear in red, the same as they do on Wikipedia and many other wikis. Hopefully this will draw attention to articles that we need.

I'm working on an image uploader so that you won't have to have webspace to put images in articles. Only logged-in users will be able to use it, though. This shouldn't be too much of a concern though - most of the community has an account at ReAnim8ed.
