Q - Whats to stop me just wiping all the Wiki content?
A - Nothing really, but you need to login as a Waikato user and we'll have your name logged against the changes. Vandalism is definately one of the WikiIssuesNew Page, however its supposed to be a community site/resource so hopefully the odd tape restore should get around it.
