Rule Breaking
Recently several Wiki articles have been vandalized. We would like to remind everyone that people who vandalize the wiki only once will be permanently banned immediately and if we find out who the perpetrators are further actions will be taken.
Changes to "Pilots & Players"
The Pilots & Players section has been significantly overhauled to make it more consistent with much of the rest of the wiki. The majority of the wiki documents important functionality and features of the game, virtual groups created by people and their roles in the community, communities that exist and guides on how to create ones own mods. However, previously the "Pilots & Players" section seemed to act more like a personal blog for those involved, which contrasted the rest of the wiki. Borrowing some logic from the rest of the wiki (and also inspired by rules from Liquipedia where players and teams are only allowed pages after they have achieved notable achievements or if they belong to notable organisations), the Pilots & Players section has now been changed to the following:
- Only persons of notable status will be allowed to have their own wiki page relating to the Pilots & Players section. Persons of notable status may include the following:
- Game Developers, Feature Creators or Mod/Addon Creators of high status
- Leading figures of community sites (e.g. Admins, Mods etc)
- Server Owners
- High ranking members of squadrons (e.g. COs, XOs)
- Leading figures in virtual airlines
- Event organizers
- Individuals that may not meet any of the above but have a degree of significance from a specific sequence of events
- People who are not eligible for any of the above may still have their name on the Pilots & Players page, but they will neither have a link to a page nor their own page.
- Any pages that do not meet any of the above requirements will be removed from the wiki.
