Screenpedia:Privacy policy

2019-08-15T02:08:39Z

ScreenAdmin: Created page with "== Summary == If you only read the Screenpedia project websites, no more information is collected than is typically collected in server logs by web sites in general. If you..."

== Summary ==

If you only read the Screenpedia project websites, no more information is collected than is typically collected in server logs by web sites in general.

If you contribute to the Screenpedia projects, you are '''publishing''' every word you post publicly. If you write something, assume that it will be retained forever. This includes articles, user pages and talk pages. Some limited exceptions are described below.

==Publishing on the wiki and public data ==

Simply visiting the web site does not expose your identity publicly (but see [[#Private logging|private logging]] below).

When you edit any page in the wiki, '''you are publishing a document'''. This is a public act, and you are identified publicly with that edit as its author.

=== Identification of an author ===

When you publish a page in the wiki, you may be logged in or not.

If you are logged in, you will be identified by your user name. This may be your real name if you so choose, or you may choose to publish under a pseudonym, whatever user name you selected when you created your account.

If you have not logged in, you will be identified by your network IP address. This is a series of four numbers which identifies the Internet address from which you are contacting the wiki. Depending on your connection, this number may be traceable only to a large Internet service provider, or specifically to your school, place of business, or home. It may be possible that the origin of this IP address could be used in conjunction with any interests you express implicitly or explicitly by editing articles to identify you even by private individuals.

It may be either difficult or easy for a motivated individual to connect your network IP address with your real-life identity. Therefore if you are very concerned about privacy, you may wish to log in and publish under a pseudonym.

When using a pseudonym, your IP address will not be available to the public except in cases of abuse, including vandalism of a wiki page by you or by another user with the same IP address. In all cases, your IP address will be stored on the wiki servers and can be seen by Screenpedia's server administrators and by users who have been granted "CheckUser" access. Your IP address, and its connection to any usernames that share it may be released under certain circumstances (see below).

If you use a company mail server from home or telecommute and use a DSL or cable Internet connection, it is likely to be very easy for your employer to identify your IP address and find all of your IP based Screenpedia project contributions. Using a user name is a better way of preserving your privacy in this situation. However, remember to log out or disconnect yourself after each session using a pseudonym on a shared computer, to avoid allowing others to use your identity.

=== Cookies ===

The wiki will set a temporary session cookie (PHPSESSID) whenever you visit the site. If you do not intend to ever log in, you may deny this cookie, but you cannot log in without it. It will be deleted when you close your browser session.

More cookies may be set when you log in, to avoid typing in your user name (or optionally password) on your next visit. These last up to 30 days. You may clear these cookies after use if you are using a public machine and don't wish to expose your username to future users of the machine. (If so, clear the browser cache as well.)

=== Passwords ===

Many aspects of the Screenpedia projects' community interactions depend on the reputation and respect that is built up through a history of valued contributions. User passwords are the only guarantee of the integrity of a user's edit history. All users are encouraged to select strong passwords and to never share them. No one shall knowingly expose the password of another user to public release either directly or indirectly.

== Private logging ==

Every time you visit a web page, you send a lot of information to the web server. Most web servers routinely maintain access logs with a portion of this information, which can be used to get an overall picture of what pages are popular, what other sites link to this one, and what web browsers people are using. It is not the intention of the Screenpedia projects to use this information to keep track of legitimate users.

Here's a sample of what's logged for one page view:

64.164.82.142 - - [21/Oct/2003:02:03:19 +0000]
"GET /wiki/draft_privacy_policy HTTP/1.1" 200 18084
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenpedia_projects:Village_pump"
"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/85.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/85.5"

Log data may be examined by developers in the course of solving technical problems and in tracking down badly-behaved web spiders that overwhelm the site. IP addresses of users, derived either from those logs or from records in the database are frequently used to correlate usernames and network addresses of edits in investigating abuse of the wiki, including the suspected use of malicious "sockpuppets" (duplicate accounts), vandalism, harassment of other users, or disruption of the wiki.

=== Policy on release of data derived from page logs ===

It is the policy of Screenpedia that personally identifiable data collected in the server logs, or through records in the database via the CheckUser feature, may be released by the system administrators or users with CheckUser access, in the following situations:

# In response to a valid subpoena or other compulsory request from law enforcement
# With permission of the affected user
# Where the information pertains to page views generated by a spider or bot and its dissemination is necessary to illustrate or resolve technical issues.
# Where the user has been vandalizing articles or persistently behaving in a disruptive way, data may be released to assist in the targeting of IP blocks, or to assist in the formulation of a complaint to relevant Internet Service Providers
# Where it is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of the Screenpedia, its users or the public.

Screenpedia policy does not permit public distribution of such information under any circumstances, except as described above.

== Sharing information with third parties ==

Screenpedia will not sell or share private information, such as email addresses, with third parties, unless you agree to release this information, or it is required by law to release the information.

==Security of information==

The Screenpedia Foundation makes no guarantee against unauthorized access to any information you provide. This information may be available to anyone with access to the servers.

== E-mail, mailing lists and IRC==

=== E-mail ===

You may provide your e-mail address in your Preferences and enable other logged-in users to send email to you through the wiki. Your address will not be revealed to them unless you respond, or possibly if the email bounces. The email address may be used by the Screenpedia to communicate with users on a wider scale.

If you do not provide an email address, you will not be able to reset your password if you forget it. However, you may contact one of the Screenpedia server administrators to enter a new mail address in your preferences.

You can remove your email address from your preferences at any time to prevent it being used.

== User data ==
Data on users, such as the times at which they edited and the number of edits they have made are publicly available via "user contributions" lists, and in aggregated forms published by other users.

=== Removal of user accounts ===

Once created, user accounts will not be removed. It may be possible for a username to be changed (depending on the policies of your local wiki). The Screenpedia does not guarantee that a name will be changed on request.

Whether specific user information is deleted is dependant on the deletion policies of the project that contains the information.

== Deletion of content ==

Removing text from Screenpedia projects does not permanently delete it. In normal articles, anyone can look at a previous version and see what was there. If an article is "deleted", any user with "administrator" access on the wiki, meaning almost anyone trusted not to abuse the deletion capability, can see what was deleted. Information can be permanently deleted by those people with access to the servers, but there is no guarantee this will happen except in response to legal action.

Screenpedia:About

ScreenAdmin: created

Screenpedia was originally hosted by the Telecommunication and Film Department, the University of Alabama.

Please see the [http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_User's_Guide User's Guide] for usage and configuration help.

== Version History ==
*Updated 14 August 2019 to latest version of MediaWiki ''and'' moved it off the University of Alabama's servers.
*Updated 3 June 2011 to beta version of Mediawiki 1.17.0. Hoping this will make updating easier in the future.
*Updated 15 January 2008 (or around then).
*Updated from MediaWiki 1.5.8 to latest version, 28 December 2007.
*Updated 14 December 2005.
*Updated 3 November 2005.
*First installed 31 July 2005.

==''First vandalism!''==
At 00:53, on April 24, 2006, [[User:Sammax]] vandalized this Screenpedia article. It was the first time anyone vandalized the site.

Now we are a true wiki!

He/she attempted to insert dozens of links to medical sites and some marketing thing:

<nowiki>http://www.marketingbuscadores.com marketing buscadores</nowiki>

But, he/she wrapped it all in a DIV tag that Screenpedia does not accept:

<nowiki><div align="right" style="height: 2pt; overflow: scroll"></nowiki>

And, thus, nothing appeared on the page. A rather incompetent attempt at link spam.

===Subsequent vandalisms===
Vandalism is now all-too-common on Screenpedia. A bunch of user names have inserted gibberish into Screenpedia. [[User:RoletOrolc]], for example, vandalized this article today. --[[User:Jeremy Butler|Jeremy Butler]] 06:48, 7 February 2008 (CST)

== Editing Screenpedia material ==
Screenpedia is a wiki, which means that users can edit any page and have those changes posted immediately to that page.

'''Editing''' a Screenpedia page is very easy. Simply click on the "'''edit'''" tab at the top of a wiki page. This will bring you to a new page with a text box containing the editable text of the original page. You should write a short summary of your changes in the small field below the edit-box. When you have finished, press the '''Show preview''' button to see how your changes will look. If you're happy with what you see, be bold and press the '''Save page''' button. Your changes will immediately be visible to other Screenpedia users.

You can also click on the "'''Discussion'''" tab to see the corresponding talk page, which contains comments about the page from other Screenpedia users. Click on the talk page's "'''+'''" tab to add a new section, or edit the page in the same way as an article page.

You should remember to sign your messages on talk pages, but you should '''not''' sign edits you make to regular articles. In [[Screenpedia:Page history|page histories]], the MediaWiki software keeps track of which user makes each change.

==How to format your text==
Let's say you want to have ''italics'' or '''boldface''' or a [http://www.screensite.org Web link] in your Screenpedia page. Well sir, you can use some funky punctuation to achieve that!

When you're entering stuff into Screenpedia, you are limited to just letters, numbers and punctuation marks; but Screenpedia understands certain use of punctuation to mean "format text this way." Thus, three apostrophes on either side of a word -- like <pre><nowiki>'''this'''</nowiki></pre> -- will boldface a word when it appears in Screenpedia. All manner of cool effects are possible through a bit of creative punctuation.

Fortunately, you don't even have to memorize the basic formatting, because just above the editing window is a set of buttons that'll automate it for you (see below). All you have to do is highlight the text you want to format in the editing window and then click one of them. Here are a few to get you going:

:[[Image:Button bold.png]] '''bold'''
:[[Image:Button italic.png]] ''italics''
:[[Image:Button link.png]] [[link to something in Screenpedia]]
:[[Image:Button extlink.png]] [http://www.screensite.org/ link to something outside Screenpedia]; this should be a Web address that begins with "http://".
:[[Image:Button sig.png]] add your signature to a discussion/talk page; for this one you don't highlight text first. If you click it, it'll insert two hyphens and three tildes (<nowiki>--~~~~</nowiki>). When Screenpedia sees that, it transforms it into:
::--[[User:Jeremy Butler|Jeremy Butler]] 16:06, 7 February 2006 (CST)

'Course, this just scratches the surface of the formatting you can do. There are a many more effects you can achieve with simple (and not so simple) punctuation. In the left column of the table below, you can see what effects are possible. In the right column, you can see how those effects were achieved. In other words, to make text look like it looks in the left column, type it in the format you see in the right column.

You may want to keep this page open in a separate browser window for reference. '''If you want to try out things without danger of doing any harm, you can do so in the [[Screenpedia:Sandbox|Sandbox]]'''. Try opening the Sandbox in a separate window or tab and keeping this page open for reference.

(This method of formatting or "marking" text is known as ''wiki mark-up'' and is closely related to HTML mark-up.)

Three ways to link to external (non-wiki) sources:
# Bare URL: http://www.nupedia.com/ (bad style)
# Unnamed link: [http://www.nupedia.com/] (only used within article body for footnotes)
# Named link: [http://www.nupedia.com Nupedia]

:See [[MetaScreenpedia:Interwiki_map]] for the list of shortcuts.

* Square brackets indicate an external link. Note the use of a ''space'' (not a pipe) to separate the URL from the link text in the "named" version.
* In the [[URL]], all symbols must be among: '''A-Z a-z 0-9 . _ \ / ~ % - + & # ? ! = ( ) @ \x80-\xFF'''
* If a URL contains a character not in this list, it should be encoded by using a percent sign (%) followed by the [[hexadecimal|hex]] code of the character, which can be found in the table of [[ASCII#ASCII printable characters|ASCII printable characters]]. For example, the caret character (^) would be encoded in a URL as '''%5E'''.
* If the "named" version contains a closing square bracket "]", then you must use the [[HTML]] special character syntax, i.e. '''&#93;''' otherwise the [[MediaWiki]] software will prematurely interpret this as the end of the external link.
* There is a class that can be used to remove the arrow image from the external link. It is used in [[Template:Ref]] to stop the URL from expanding during printing. It should '''never''' be used in the main body of an article. However, there is an exception: wikilinks in Image markup. An example of the markup is as follows:
** Markup: <nowiki>
[http://www.sysinternals.com
/ntw2k/freeware/winobj.shtml
WinObj]</nowiki>
** Display: <nowiki>
[http://www.sysinternals.com/

==Using images==

Getting an image on a Screenpedia page is a two-step process:
#Upload the image
#Place the image on a page

===Uploading images to Screenpedia===
Only images that have first been uploaded to Screenpedia can be placed on its pages. The process goes like this:

#Create or save an image file on your hard disk.
#Go to the [[Special:Upload|upload page]].
#The '''Source filename''' blank is for the name and location of your file on your hard disk. Click the '''Browse''' button next to it to search your hard disk for the file you created/saved.
#The '''Destination filename''' is for the name of the file as it will appear on Screenpedia. This defaults to the same name as the '''Source filename''', but you can change it, if need be (if, for example, there is already a file on Screenpedia with that name).
#In the '''Summary''' blank, type a description of the file, including its original source.
#Click the '''Upload file''' button to complete this step and create a page associated with this file. The page will have a name like '''Image:goober.jpg''' (if your file's name were goober.jpg) and will contain basic information about the file and its upload.

===Placing images on Screenpedia pages===

Now that we've got a file-based page for our image, we can place it on another page by surround its name with square brackets '''[[]]''' and including it in the editing of a page. Using our example above, this would look like:

*'''<nowiki>[[Image:goober.jpg]]</nowiki>'''.

But that's just the beginning. You can do all sorts of stuff with the alignment and the style of a placed image. Here are some options.

{| border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"

|<pre>A smaller, thumbnail of the image, with a caption beneath it:
<nowiki>[[Image:wiki.png|thumb|100px|Screenpedia Encyclopedia as a globe.]]</nowiki></pre>
* This is ''the'' most common way to add images to wikis. '''Highly recommended.'''
* The number in the "px" setting establishes the thumbnail's width, measured in pixels. In this example, it is set to 100 pixels wide.
* Clicking the thumbnail displays the full-sized image.
* The "thumb" setting automatically floats the image to the right.
* The caption is also used as alternate text--viewable if you mouse over the image.

|- valign="top"
|With alternative text:
[[Image:wiki.png|jigsaw globe]]
|<pre>With alternative text:
<nowiki>[[Image:wiki.png|jigsaw globe]]</nowiki></pre>
* Alternative text, used when a mouse hovers over the image or when the image is not loaded in a text-only browser, or when spoken aloud, is '''strongly''' encouraged. See [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Alternate text for images|Alternate text for images]] for help on choosing it.

|- valign="top"

* The help topic on [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Extended image syntax|Extended image syntax]] explains more options.
