Business Networking and Systems Management
Dr. Mahmoud Malik Abu Ara
The department of Business Networking and Systems Management is considered one of the distinguished departments at the university. It combines two aspects of our practical life, namely, different fields of computer networks and information systems on one hand and business management on the other. This leads to the emerging of a new scientific branch of study that paves the building blocks of information systems, computer networks are considered to be the backbone of information systems, we focus on the implementation side of networking rather the design side. Our main goal is to prepare our students for appropriate handling of business tasks expected from networks administrators within local or web networked environments 
The department always tries to cope with developments in this field by involving relevant organizations in the field of networking and information systems. This is implemented by means of workshops and seminars which students benefit from. In addition to this, continuous development and improvement are carried out on the course plan, and description of courses that are part of the requirements for the bachelor degree in business networking and system management.
Finally we emphasize that our operation at the department is strategically tied to the needs of the marketplace, hence curriculum and directions are modified as needed.

Development Studies
Dr. Yousef Abulaila
The Department of Development Studies was established in 2009, it includes four staff members, two holds Professorships, one associate professor and one assistant professor. The staff members are distinguished academics, their presence is noticed in the cultural and scientific circles locally, regionally and internationally, through their active participation in scientific conferences, cultural seminars, and activities with local communities
The Human Development Reports published by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) indicate that development projects and programmes in Arab societies have failed over the last few decades. The prevailing international opinion in development-related studies asserts, through theories, methods and practical applications, that it is impossible for development to succeed unless it is taught, researched and applied as one area of specialty. In a comprehensive survey, we did not find any Bachelor-level program in Development Studies at any Arab university.
Philadelphia University must step in to fill this glaring gap in Arab higher education in the 21st century in order to help meet the needs of people and society—both in Jordan and the Arab world—on the basis of a new practical science. To this end, it is proposed that our university should offer a new, four-year (132 credit hours) academic program, leading to a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Development Studies.
Development studies, as a specialization, is unique in its utilization of naturally interrelated fields in the humanities and sociology, and it studies contemporary development through its three complementary fields:
• Sociology
• Economics
• Politics
Development studies also ties in these complementary fields with three supporting ones:
• Culture
• Communications
• The Environment
Development Studies shall be considered a separate academic specialty offered by the Department of Human and Social Sciences, which has been part of the Faculty of Arts since the founding of Philadelphia University, and which currently provides supporting academic services to all Philadelphia students by offering required University and Faculty courses.

April 2012

I have unified Form:Wiki and Template:Wiki, so now, when you click on "edit with form", the form is autofilled.

Also, I'm creating thousands of new wikis, from Referata, Wikkii and Wikia. emijrp 04:08, 6 April 2012 (PDT)

Cool. There a Wikia version of Form:Wiki? (in the style of Template:Wikia Boilerplate ) --EarthFurst 12:25, 16 May 2012 (PDT)
Template:Wikia_Boilerplate isn't being used. There's nothing special on Wikia wikis except adding Category;Wikia. --Ciencia Al Poder 14:16, 16 May 2012 (PDT)
January 2012

Spam fighting, less spam fighting but it is still here with account spam. Ray King raised the question with me of requiring accounts to be authorized as a way to try and cut spam down to zero. We both loathe this option... but... we wanted to put it out to folks, especially the heros of spam fighting on WikiIndex - to see what you thought about it. Best, MarkDilley

It's nowhere as bad as it once was, so for the moment, I don't think it's necessary. The anon edits were the real pain and they are mostly gone now, so I think that going to a account authorization system would place more of a load on the Admin I think at least. TeraS
From my own experience of discovering and flagging spam, I've noticed that the spammers are now 'registered users'. So, can we say have a minimum edit count (maybe 10 edits) before even registered users can add links . . . or would that put off someone who genuinely wants to add a new valid wiki? --Hoof Hearted • talk2HH 01:26, 26 January 2012 (PST)
I think this is an ok idea, is there a way that we can message around it? Also, I am wondering if we have to do what Ray King asked - do we require people to request accounts? Best, MarkDilley

SOPA fighting. What do folks think about adding WikiIndex to this: http://SopaStrike.com - I would like to if there is general consensus. Best, MarkDilley

  • Sounds like a worthy protest. I think WikiIndex should join the strike. --EarthFurst 10:01, 16 January 2012 (PST)

Spam fighting, spam fighting and more spam fighting. Special mention goes to Tera for her spam fighting work the last 6 months (or more) and to many others who carried the torch before. We now have CAPTCHA on account creation and on anonymous edits. Didn't want to have to do it on anonymous edits without a link, but we were getting hit pretty hard the last week. Let's cross our fingers for a less spam 2012. Best to everyone here. ~~ MarkDilley

January 2010
Using this wiki to organize other wiki work, an idea, what you think? ~~ MarkDilley
The idea is called WikiHorde and it is a crew of wiki people (checking to see if we can get that domain) - Best, MarkDilley'
That sounds like a cool idea. By the way, is there a place on WikiIndex for discussing ideas for running a wiki? That would include the above "good methods for inviting/advertising people elsewhere to come edit my wiki", etc. Is there a category for wiki where such "wiki on wiki" conversations are welcomed? Conversations such as, for example, the "Building community" guide. --DavidCary 20:47, 30 January 2010 (EST)
David, wiki on wiki is perfect here - however you want to organize it, and I will go for WikiHorde also! Best, MarkDilley

Will be limited downtime. John 19:47, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

As for the upgrade: was it canceled? Best --Wolf | talk 04:26, 20 January 2010 (EST)
Wolf, yes it was and we are needing to figure out a different path to upgrading. Maybe we can chat off wiki? Best, MarkDilley

Looks like the DPL extension was the source of server outages, everything stable again.

Reducing the number of extensions to isolate the source of server load problems:

  • Analytics
  • Dynamic Page List
  • Random Include
  • Thumbnail

To avoid the Captcha, Login! and Confirm via Email John 18:24, 20 November 2007 (EST)

Changed reCAPTCHA permissions so that a logged in user who has confirmed via email address should be able to skip the CAPTCHA. We continue to tweek reCAPTCHA to combat the jibberish spam knowing that it was not meant for this purpose, it was meant for link spam. I can always ease off on the restrictions but the price we pay is more jibberish spam. John 18:23, 20 November 2007 (EST)

Upped reCAPTCHA permissions so that any anon edit will trigger the Captcha. This should cut out the jibberish spam but will likely annoy our non-logged in users - Sorry everyone but jibbersish spam is really bugging us. Let me know if any unintended consequences show up.

Spam has been a growing problem for us so I have implemented a Captcha extension called reCAPTCHA in an effort to reduce the workload on our dedicate volunteer patrollers. If you encounter any problems with it please let me know. John 14:04, 1 September 2007 (EDT)


Once again we have moved, we ran out of database room on our shared hosting account and we are now running on a dedicated server on 1and1. John 15:48, 22 July 2007 (EDT)
