ETA on the Wiki?

[Chacal]

The same thing happened to me.
Thanks for the shiny new toy
Plus it's a mediawiki, so I don't have a new one to learn

Yay wiki!

Just a nitpick... it mentions on the front page that people shouldn't create pages about themselves... but every user already has a page waiting for them to create. When you click on your username it'll go to your page (which'll be blank if you haven't created it yet). It's in its own namespace (User:NameOfUser), so it shouldn't conflict with other pages. All MediaWikis have this.

Strange - shen I click on the ENWiki link at teh top of the page, I got a page that said "all cookies cleared" and was logged out - when I went to the Front page, I could successfully get to the Wiki, however.

exact same happened to me. it cleared my cookies (i felt so violated... but in a good way )

It's a quirk of the bridge cookie I think. It happened to me. If it's infrequent I'll live with it.

Just a note - I'm sure a lot of you guys know far more about Wiki usage than I do! What's on the front page is pretty much there as my initial rambling thoughts, but with your help I'm sure we'll get a decent structure going.

So far, everytime I go from the forum to the Wiki, it does the cookie thing. But not when I go from the new page/home to the wiki (getting to the newspage from the forum).

I'm using Camino 2.0a1pre (which I think is still using the older FF2 Gecko).

Same thing. I get automatically logged out.

Same thing happens to me. About 10% of the time, I get through to the Wiki, but since I've been logged out, I'd be editing as an IP address.

I'm assuming this "bridge" mechanism migrates account data from the forums to the Wiki?

Using FF3 on XP, BTW.

If you go to the wiki from any forum or thread, you get logged out. However, if you go there from the forum front page, it doesn't log you out (IE 6).

Yeah, I noticed that too. A little annoying.
