When you edit pages, please try to use the "Show preview" button (rather than making dozens of individual edits to the same page). That way the edit log (which a lot of people use to find out what's new on the Wiki) isn't cluttered by the same page edit over and over.
Since you deleted all content of the ACE pages (even for the main page), I assume you don't even want to keep an overview page here, and we can also remove any uploaded images? --[[User:Kronzky|Kronzky]] 23:04, 4 January 2010 (CET)

Also - I understand that the page limits for mods came at an inopportune time for you guys, as a new build was just about to be released, but I hope all these additions you are doing here currently are just a temporary solution until you have found you own host.
It's your server - do whatever you wish that makes you happy.

During my work I preview '''A LOT'''.  But when this web site keeps "refreshing" the page in the middle of my work and losing my changes you are forcing me to save my work far more often than I normally would. Normally I would break the info into more pages to limit the amount of large changes, but your new rules prevented that.

I'm sorry my changes are flooding your logs. Compared to the nominal rate of change on this wiki, it must be quite a shock. But due to the deadline to finish our work here before the 4 week deadline I've had to pick up the pace of changes made.
 
Plans are well underway to move all of the ACE documentation off this site. I'll also let our user base know where to look for ACE documentation so they do not burden your system anymore.

:If you have that much experience with Wikis then I'm surprised you're not familiar with the concept of working off a local copy of the article.
:Copy the article into your local editor, do all the edits in there, and then paste it back into the browser, to check the preview.
:That way you don't need to submit endless minor edits, have the convenience of working in a more powerful editor, and never have to worry about Wiki failures. Everybody wins...

ACE Pages

Since you deleted all content of the ACE pages (even for the main page), I assume you don't even want to keep an overview page here, and we can also remove any uploaded images? --Kronzky 23:04, 4 January 2010 (CET)

It's your server - do whatever you wish that makes you happy.

I did not remove the documents for ACE version-1 because I'm not the primary owner. But did remove ALL content created by myself.

I do suggest you change the preface on the main page to be more truthful. It's not a community wiki, nor does it provide complete or accurate information. The gaps in documentation for ArmA and especially Arma 2 are significant with little indication of any hope that will change. Noting the admonishments on my work, I can see why so few outside of BI wish to contribute here - it's a very hostile environment.
