:: As a wiki [[Sysop|administrator]], I would not be pleased to see someone creating a page on my wiki without me knowing what the deal is. Unsolicited, non-topical content, particularly when related to an outside entity, is [[spam]].

Mind you, that's a step I'm perfectly willing to take for WikiIndex, along with limiting write access to the page to prevent some misguided soul from artificially inflating my site.--[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 21:27, 4 October 2007 (EDT) | :: As a wiki [[Sysop|administrator]], I would not be pleased to see someone creating a page on my wiki without me knowing what the deal is.
