spam filter

If you get blocked by the spam filter, please contact me! Be sure to include your IP address so I can unblock you. I need to type up some guidelines for avoiding the filter, and the filter itself needs a CAPTCHA-based unblocker.

Editing

This page is in need of updating. Need some basic wiki-editing instructions here.

Templates

didn't I already create a page or section about templates somewhere? -W.

Various conditions under which the complete text of an external article might be posted in Issuepedia:

• Template:Authored: reprinted with Issuepedia-specific permission
• Template:Copyrt: reprinted without permission
• Template:Fiskreprint: reprinted without permission specifically for fisking (maybe this is redundant?)
  • Template:Fisking-incomplete: use this when you've posted the article but haven't finished fisking yet
• Template:Licensed: reprinted under the terms of a specific license

News Sources

Places to find current news, especially items not generally covered by the mainstream press

Outdated
