Hm. A PM would not have been more effective :) Due apologies.

Eight month bump. Looking for someone who knows the elusive art of wiki wrangling and/or input on the question of separate logins.
My 2 cents:
Keep looking for someone who knows how to integrate the 2 logins, since that is the ideal outcome.
While we're waiting (. . . and waiting, and waiting. . . ;D), establish separate logins for the wiki because it desperately needs attention.
-- Option 1 - User PMs Mod to create login. Mod sends PM with a temp password.
-- Option 2 - Allow users to create login/password.
If anyone notices their (or someone else's) wiki login being hijacked, PM a mod who can set a different wiki password and PM it back to the user's forum account, allowing the actual user to regain control.
The sad truth is that the number of contributors/editors will probably be small enough to make either option manageable, but I'd love to be proved wrong on this. >:D

Anyone have any other options they'd like to suggest for getting Wiki-logins working again?
Does anyone like either of the options listed above or are they unworkable for some reason that I'm missing?

As you say, I'd guess there would be few accounts who'd want update ability. As such, pm'ing a mod to create account doesn't seem far fetched imho.

In the interest of not totally ignoring folks - I'm in the absolute worst part of the year in my work and personal life. Anything that's not a few button clicks gets back burnered. Come July I get a breather for a couple of months. If SirWoogie isn't available to fix things before then I'm of the mind to just install a brand new Wiki with its own security credentials, and migrating everything over. Do we need secure editing, or should it just be open?
