Discuss existing and proposed policies.
Community Sites Standard
How should we handle community sites that consist of nothing but a few generic pages of OFP/ArmA information?
Should there be a minimum of content before they are listed here? After all, having them listed there serves nobody but the site owner. People who are looking for information (those who this wiki is for) aren't really interested in "empty" sites, I would think...--Kronzky 18:01, 15 August 2006 (CEST)

Australians in Vietnam
Since Australians in Vietnam is coming out shortly, should it become its own category, or should it stay underneath VBS?
Blocking Policy
The blocking policy page needs to be defined. Right now I've forwarded it to the Guidelines, but it should probably have it own specific rules.
Image Restrictions
In order to keep a mass uploading of images to the BI Wiki, some guidelines should be followed when creating your Mod page, or your personal Wiki page, or any pages for that matter. A limit of 5 - 8 images limit per page. Assumption of 1 -2 pics for logo, 4 pics max for screen shots, 1 image for squad.xml.
Other File types
- Some have requested other file types such as videos, pbo, sqm files. See talk page for discussion.
