Recent Edits to a Character Page

New page

==Recent Edits to a Character Page==
Hello, PETERSONP1. I wanted to reach out to you to an update to the [[Gswiki:Policy]], which was made last spring to item #4 associated with character pages. Previously, there were no circumstances where character pages (and their subpages) were allowed to be modified by anyone other than the character's player or someone to whom they had given permission. This had the unfortunate result of not allowing for circumstances where a player from our community has passed away. The recent policy update makes allowances where this is permitted, but with specific parameters. Those parameters are now outlined in the Gswiki's [[Gswiki:Style guide/Character pages#Player Deaths|style guide for character pages]].

While your edits to [[Mourdeyan (prime)|Mourdeyan]]'s page were made fully in good faith, I am moving forward with the steps outlined in the updated policy for how a character page is handled when a player passes away. I have locked further edits to the character page. I have added a new template to the top of the page, identifying that it is locked to further edits out of respect to the player who has passed away. The template includes a link to a new subpage, which has not yet been created, [[Mourdeyan (prime)/Memorial]], which may be freely created or edited by you or anyone else who wish to preserve memories of her player. '''In seven days, I will revert your recent edits to [[Mourdeyan (prime)|Mourdeyan]]'s character page to the last version by the original author.''' This is intended to preserve the character page in the original voice intended by her player. This should give you ample time to move any edits you would like to preserve to the Memorial page.

I realize that this is a difficult time for you and Mourdeyan's friends, and especially for the Silver Gryphon community which has suffered a number of losses in recent years. Please let me or the wiki team know if you have any questions or concerns about this policy update or the actions I am taking. This can be done via email to gs4-wiki@play.net or via Gemstone's [https://discord.com/channels/226045346399256576/1061330227843833926 Discord forum's wiki thread].
