Board Thread:General Discussion/@comment-4530750-20160228040801

In light of a recent forum post, the admin team has been holding discussions in our group chat about what to do about some information that was recently brought to the attention of the community.

As an administrator, we are obliged to delete vitriolic content. It's firmly against the rules and there are no exceptions to the rule. None. It has nothing to do with liking the people whose page was defaced or not: how myself and the others feel about the creator/contributors of the page makes no difference whatsoever.

The value of transparency is not to be ignored. We do not want anyone to think that their commentary was deleted because of some kind of bias or because the admin team wishes to squash a discussion or, worse, delete important information. The information presented by the user is valid and, frankly, somewhat worrying. It confirms many doubts and stories that have been passed W42 for several years. For this reason, the comment from this user is being relocated to this thread in the next post.

The point that the staff team would like to bring forward is how TSG content should be treated on our wiki from here on out. We're not the only people that use this wiki -- we're just the janitors -- which is why we want to know what YOU think. Should the TSG-related pages be deleted? What do you propose?

P/S:

Please keep the discussion in this thread as cordial as possible. Vitriolic commentary will not be tolerated here either, from any side of the board. Anger is understandable, but going off on a tangent and insulting others is not.

Thank you for your comprehension,

The Staff Team
