Usual roles

There are 4 kinds of roles. Someone can handle multiple roles:

  • Contributors : That's anyone who contribute to the wiki.
    Every pages are editable by every one (except the wiki's built-in pages that are immutable).

  • Translators : The Wiki translators (see DebianWiki/TranslationCoordination) are like contributors

  • Content administrators : The Content administrators ensure the wiki is consistent. They also maintain the DebianWiki/EditorGuide. (members: see DebianWiki/Contact).

  • Wiki administrators : The member of the group wikiadm can modify the wiki configuration files (and any arbitrary file). (members: see DebianWiki/Contact).

Also, DSA team manages the machine hosting the wiki.

Tasks

  • Keep the wiki clean, consistent, coordinate structural changes... keep it usable !

more advanced tasks

for Wiki administrators

Remove spam and spammers

Watch RecentChanges for spam and when you find some, login to the wiki server and perform the following steps:

$ PATH=$PATH:/srv/wiki.debian.org/bin
$ kill-spammer "Some user"
$ touch /srv/wiki.debian.org/bin/moin.wsgi
$ whois 1.2.3.4
$ mail abuse@example.com

Contacting the abuse address for the IP address is a good idea but is optional.
