Leaders in the {{Infobox Faction}}

I've noticed that you're listing all past leaders in the {{Infobox Faction}}, it's probably just a personal preference issue, but I do think that in the case of Hammers Slammers it's a bit over the top... I would rather see just the actual leader or the last leader before dissolution in the infobox and have a separate section of the article with the list of all the leaders... --Xanyarr Chyakk 18:08, 19 June 2011 (GMT)

Okay. Understood. When there are a large number of leaders, I'll put them in a separate section. -- Rupert Havok 18:10, 19 June 2011 (GMT)

Notes to Self

activating accounts with names not following guidelines

hey Rupert,
there's a rule/guideline/policy on Holocron:Guide that states that users MUST use Combine Handle for Holocron user accounts. It's tied to CP rewards, but also allows for better identification and communication outside of wiki. Perhaps we should follow it, eh? ;)

Hi Xesh. Thank you for your feedback. I'm aware of the guideline; however, in this case, Derrik Thynite lost access to his existing Holocron account (User:Derrik Thynite) and was unable to retrieve his password. I contacted Dreighton regarding the problem and requested she look into the matter. As we cannot manually reset passwords, Thynite requested that an alternate account be temporarily activated. Several Holocron users have had this problem before in the past and others pursued a similar approach until it was resolved. -- Rupert Havok 18:15, 30 December 2012 (GMT)
I see. Does it mean that email password restore function via Special:UserLogin does not work? According to Manual:Resetting passwords Jennifer should be able to change password manually, provided we have those maintenance scripts... --Xesh Randell 13:03, 31 December 2012 (GMT)
