User Rights Changes

In light of the recent removal of page protections as well as a much needed spring clean a number of user have now had their rights downgraded in order to maintain a small pool of active users as sysops and bureaucrats.

Unprotecting pages

Finally we have now unprotected all content pages on the wiki (donkey section aside). This means that all users can edit pages including the main page and section main pages as well. This has now been instigated as previous issues regarding protection of the wiki's pages have now been resolved.

Image Rights Templates

First stage of the new copyright system for images on the wiki has been implemented. The information template is very similar to that used on wikipedia and is going to be supported by other templates such as cc-att-2.0 as well as tighter intergration into the upload form.
