I tried to edit the Buzz page to some sort of compromise. I think the current version should satisfy both you and WL. I also think it doesn't have anything at all to do with bike church or other programs. Some people are just fiercely protective of the wiki. Stick around, check the wiki out. Chime in now and then on other pages. etc. -ES

2009-04-24 12:19:11   Hey, Dorn... is The Buzz open to the public, to university connected people, to students, or just to undergraduates? Right now, it doesn't specify that it is limited in any way. Who can attend? —Evan 'JabberWokky' Edwards, (814) 889-8845

2009-04-24 12:21:19   Also, it might be a good idea to add contact information for bands or other entertainment looking to perform. —JabberWokky

Yes, it stinks, and yes it's one of those "it would be really good if people could edit events", but nobody's stepped up yet to add the ability to edit them. One of those "we're all volunteers" things. —JabberWokky

2009-07-31 10:22:35   Thanks JabberWokky. —dornbiker

2009-07-31 11:06:51   Hey, to be clear, which one is the WRONG date? —JabberWokky

2010-07-19 16:17:56   Are you personally repudiating the edits (2) of the students under your employ? —WilliamLewis

2010-07-21 09:54:23   You can't have it both ways. Either CampusRec represents Campus Recreation or it doesn't. My question is, do you still maintain that the CampusRec account is a representative of campus recreation? If so, the information at the top of the page is relevant and it belongs (the account did edit My Broskies, one or more users of the account did engage in inappropriate sockpuppetry and flaming). If not, it isn't authoritative and needs to go.

Oh, and stop trying to make this personal. I have no grudge against you or campus recreation, as you have stated in the past. I'm just interested in the health of the wiki and am concerned about the edits made by an account you claimed was officially sanctioned last time we spoke. —WilliamLewis

2010-07-21 15:32:29   When you are editing and see ["Rec Hall"] and replace it with Pavilion instead of ["The Pavilion at ARC" Pavilion] it removes a link from the page. —JasonAller
