For the last week I've been doing a lot of update work, mainly to the code. Here is a summary

==Policy==

* Updated to the latest [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.19 MediaWiki 1.19 version]. We will not be updating to 1.20 or 1.21 this year. 1.19 is a Long Term Support version with support until May 2015.

I would like to direct you attention toward [[Neocron Wiki talk:Sysop Policy]]]. The wiki's policys are in desperate need of an overhaul, many of them still contain place holders and what little we do have is extremely superficial. --[[User:Solid Rock|Solid Rock]] 23:11, 5 May 2008 (BST)

: I totally agree - policies need a total overhaul, it was something on my THN forums todo list, however I personally just dont have the time - Can I suggest that we write the thoughts we have for each policy on the talk pages and then we can have a discussion about each section as they are added? --{{:User:Delphi/Sig2}} 23:13, 5 May 2008 (BST)

It would be nice to put together a team of Wiki admins for the [[Master_Hunter_Tournament]] being organised by [[Reakktor]] for the [[Terra]] server. Sign up here if you want to join us, if we can get 4/6 people then we will look at doing two teams and having a small bit of competition between the admins here in the wiki. This is a good chance for us to get some publicity to the wiki, and also have some fun whilst we are at it! {{:User:Delphi/Sig2}}21:22, 13 May 2008 (BST)

Try adding '''?action=purge''' at the end of the URL that may fix it. I know the wiki software has it's internal cache, so it may be worth clearing it if it happens again. --[[User:Brammers|Brammers]] 23:53, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
