Proclamation: MicroWiki Standards Officer

[Kaiser Yarad I]

It has come to my attention that there is some doubt with users of MicroWiki as to the quality of certain articles. It is agreed that all articles should take a neutral stance, and should not be below 500b in length/size.Yet, especially with regards to current disputes centering around Antica, it seems that the unspoken rules are not being followed. Also, users fill the Wiki with stupendously short or meaningless articles, which are completely unnecessary and make a mockery of what the Wiki set out to achieve.As with normal Wikis, it has become clear that we need some form of administration for MicroWiki. Someone who will ensure there is no bias in articles, that unreasonably short (below 500b in most cases) articles are not allowed, and that the Wiki is kept in a respectable condition. For this purpose, I now create the role of MicroWiki Standards Officer.To this post, I appoint Fax Celestis, who has expressed great interest in maintaining the Wiki. He has my authority to resolve any disputes over article neutrality, to remove articles which are deemed to be unnecessary (and to keep an account of the articles he does remove), and to generally maintain and nurture MicroWiki. With him in this position, I am sure the quality and ideals of MicroWiki will be upheld. Edited by: Kaiser Yarad I at: 9/21/05 15:57

Thank you, my Kaiser.P.S. That's 500b, not 500k, sir. Viatax Sitadi Axdivijink Regigoraauk

[Kaiser Yarad I]

Yes, I thought 500k seemed a bit much for a minimum...

Just to clarify, does this prohibit other admins from enforcing these standards, or just make Fax actually have it as his job while the rest of us can still do it if we want to?

[Fax Celestis]

The intention, as to what I discussed with the Kaiser, was that, in addition to my normal Admin powers, I would also be the only one (currently) who would be able to settle NPOV disputes. Viatax Sitadi Axdivijink Regigoraauk

Admins are allowed continue as normal, but the Standards Officer is my personal representative where Wiki-related concerns are aired. Zie has authority where neutrality and value of articles are concerned.
