Dylan Thomas (the former webmaster of BoyChat) made a number of posts on this topic, and I would like to refer to them. Unfortunately, the administrators of BoyChat have (inexplicably) made these post inaccessible to the public. Does someone happen to have copies of them which they could share with me? Thanks.

Questions on etiquette regarding editing articles (repost of unanswered question)

If another editor creates an article, and has been the only contributor to the article, and I would like to make some changes, or point out what appear to me to be errors in the article:

  • would it be better for me to first make comments on the "Talk" page of the article? (This is Wikipedia's [unofficial] policy.)
  • would doing so be more respectful to the creator/maintainer of the article?
  • and would doing so minimize the possibility of creating problems with other editors?

We're not Wikipedia--we're just a tiny wiki, with only a handful of editors.

It might even be a good idea if all BoyWiki editors followed guidelines similar to those mentioned above, and it could become official BoyWiki policy, couldn't it? What do you think, Etenne?

High Priest of BoyLovers by Dylan Thomas

Dylan Thomas (the former webmaster of BoyChat) made a number of posts on this topic, and I would like to refer to them. Unfortunately, the administrators of BoyChat have (inexplicably) made these post inaccessible to the public. Does someone happen to have copies of them which they could share with me? Thanks.
