&lt;div&gt;In [[Medieval]] [[village]]s people would gather at the &#039;&#039;&#039;Village Pump&#039;&#039;&#039; to discuss those items that were important to their lives. On [[Cunnan]] the Village Pump serves a similar purpose: Giving users a place to meet and discuss current events, policy and content.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Topics ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Spam flood ===&lt;br /&gt;
As anyone who looked at [[Special:Recentchanges]] today probably noticed Cunnan was the target of a group of spam bots who touched a large number of pages. The domain the bots were spamming has now been added to the antispam filter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been through all the touched pages and have edited and saved the most recent useable version of each. Unfortunately, the spam bots unwittingly hit a bug in the software which means that the the page revisions before each of their edits have most probably been corrupted. If anyone feels like spending an hour helping to cleanup then they should go through my edits for the day and check that the page revision I restored each article to was optimal (i.e. the second most recent revision in most cases).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cunnan&#039;s software has been upgraded so that the database corruption wont occur again even if the spam bots return.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 23:35, 8 Oct 2005 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hmm, it just happened again. I believe I have got rid of the spam, but it was done using multiple &amp;quot;machines&amp;quot; so it wasn&#039;t worth my time blocking everyone. Also some pages were hit multiple times. Rollback only works for the last action on the page, including rollbacks, so some of the fixes had to be edits. Nasty! I understand Tobin&#039;s problems the first time. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 09:53, 22 Oct 2005 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
** Three cheers for Cian! Thanks for doing the dirty work Cian, the fact that you and Tobin have done this is much appreciated. Given that this is the second time this has happened maybe it&#039;s time that we adopted a policy of only allowing editing for people who have logged in. It&#039;s not a foolproof defence I know, and it makes us feel less welcoming, but it would save a lot of aggravation. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 20:55, 22 Oct 2005 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
*** The most nasty wiki spam bots use a mixture of accounts and anonymous edits (the attack today and the first major attack are both examples of this). Forcing people to register only inconveniences humans. I&#039;ve updated the anti spam filter to include the &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; id that the recent spam attacks have all included. Hopefully this will catch future attacks from this bot. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 04:57, 5 Nov 2005 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
*** The two attacks I have &amp;quot;cleaned up&amp;quot; today all targetted the same files but the second one created blank pages. I wonder if they were doing so for a purpose? I blocked the repeating URLs which sometimes actually used a username.  [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 19:40, 11 Dec 2005 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
**** I&#039;ve added some things from today&#039;s spam flood to the anti spam filter. If things stop working someone should tell me. -- [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 05:51, 12 Dec 2005 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*FYI the [[France]] page is currently showing up as uneditable due to the spam filter --[[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]] 02:41, 8 Dec 2005 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
** I know, I&#039;ll remove &#039;&#039;that site&#039;&#039; from the anti spam filter when I&#039;ve got time to do a general cleanup -- [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 05:51, 12 Dec 2005 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m getting sick of not being able to properly use the word special-ist (without the hyphen) because it includes cial-is (without the hyphen).  I seem to use the word (and it&#039;s relatives) quite a bit.  Is there any way we can still exclude the pharaceutical (because that trick is working nicely thankyou), but allow certain words that contain it? special-ist special-ism, special-ists, special-istic etc. [[User:Tiff|Tiff]]&lt;br /&gt;
** Oops, my bad. I&#039;ll change the anti spam filter to require a non-letter character on either side for a match. Should happen after I&#039;m back from work today. Have people noticed any other false positives? -- [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 13:15, 12 Jan 2006 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
*** Should be fixed now. The new rule for c*alis is &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;[^A-Za-z]c*alis[^A-Za-z]&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039; (with the * replaced by the appropriate letter of course). -- [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 01:43, 13 Jan 2006 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* I was unable to add a link to the Bordescros website hosted by www . freewebs . com / bordescros because of the spam filter. Can this be made an exception please.--[[User:MasterWill|MasterWill]] 06:49, 16 Mar 2006 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
** I&#039;ve removed freewebs from the spam filter. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 00:15, 24 Mar 2006 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Not quite a flood this time, but the same pages have been attacked by the same sort of spam from various different &amp;quot;users&amp;quot;. Is there anyway we can combat that sort of spam (other than the manual power of moderator&#039;s fingers) ? I have been banning the users for 2 weeks, but it really is pointless if they just come back with a new &amp;quot;name&amp;quot; the next day. Is it possible to prevent people/bots using usernames that are in the format of URLs (eg. 218.53.104.2)? - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 08:49, 23 Jun 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* I&#039;ve just enabled two things that should help reduce the amount of spam we&#039;re getting. The first is proxy blocking using [http://www.au.sorbs.net/ SORBS]. This may catch a few legitimate users but that&#039;s unlikely (and if it does, well, they shouldn&#039;t be accessing the internet via an open proxy anyway). The second is [[wikipedia:Captcha|Captcha]]s for any edit which adds a URL to a page or changes an existing URL. For the time being the captchas are simple maths problems, e.g. &amp;quot;38 - 6 =&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;12 + 0 =&amp;quot;. I&#039;m going to e-mail [[User:Del|Del]] about the possibility of having the software required for image captchas installed on chiara (Cunnan&#039;s server). There may still be a few spammers which get through but this will stop the stupider bots and most non-humans. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 19:39, 22 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
** Just a minor thing about Captcha; when you come to the maths problem, and there&#039;s a link that should point to some information about why it&#039;s there/what it is, the link is broken. I think this is because it&#039;s supposed to be linking to the wikipedia article, but instead it&#039;s linking to cunnan?&lt;br /&gt;
- [[User:Asfridhr|Asfridhr, who has been too lazy to log in.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Protected Pages===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*I have just protected a couple of pages that have been repeatedly hiit by a spambot. These pages are [[woman]] and [[convent]]. I will try to remember to remove the protection once that particular spambot has given up. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 22:22, 25 Jun 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Branle Dance Broken=== &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve found that the page for the Branle dance is broken, both from searching for it and from the link for the dance page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:[[branle]] looks fine to me. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 22:17, 25 Jun 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have tried it again and it&#039;s still not working. Specifically, I&#039;m getting this error:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
     A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last&lt;br /&gt;
     attempted database query was:&lt;br /&gt;
    &lt;br /&gt;
    (SQL query hidden)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
     from within function &amp;quot;MediaWikiBagOStuff:_doquery&amp;quot;. MySQL returned error &amp;quot;1062: Duplicate entry&lt;br /&gt;
    &#039;cunnan:messages:Currentevents&#039; for key 1 (localhost)&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am using Mozilla Firefox, the latest version (if that might make a difference).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*I can&#039;t interpret the technical stuff (I&#039;ll leave that to others, who i hope will log in soon), but it&#039;s working fine for me too, on a recent version of firefox.  Maybe this is a timing issue - [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] and I are in the same timezone, and may be logging in a quieter time of day than you useage-wise.  Have you checked 10 minutes, or even an hour later?  We&#039;ve had occasional errors related to server overuse.[[User:Tiff|Tiff]] 19:15, 27 Jun 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Software Upgrade ===&lt;br /&gt;
Cunnan has been upgrade to version 1.6.8 of the Mediawiki software. If anything appears broken or acts weirdly mention it here so that someone can look at it. It&#039;s worth noting that there have been major changes to the database including conversion to UTF-8 encoding. This should have worked but some special characters may be messed up. You can help Cunnan by fixing them as you find them. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 19:12, 12 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:All the unusual characters are out. I know that you&#039;ve changed a couple of the AE ligatures on AEthelmearc, but there are lots of other characters such as the Forme of Cury recipes, and the Exeter Book riddles. I seem to recall last time this happened you were able to do a fix without editing every single item. Any chance of doing that again?

::No, sadly, the newer version of the software requires the database to be in UTF-8. I&#039;m at a loss as to why the conversion didn&#039;t work. I&#039;m going to have another look at it in the morning but I&#039;m not sure if it can be easily fixed. If it can&#039;t be then will just have to bite the bullet and fix problem pages manually. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 23:21, 12 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Congrats on the upgrade! I hope you&#039;ll now be able to implement some of the extensions that help to address the wikispam issues. At mine, we ended up simply having to force a confirmed email address before editing, which unfortunately meant no anon edit at all, but since they only account for 1% of our contributions (besides spam) we went ahead with the plan. As far as you UTF-8 issue, I think it either has to do with PHP or with going from an early 1.4 version all the way to 1.6 in a single jump. I&#039;m also working on the rest of the kingdom devices and their populace badges where I can. --[[User:ThorgrimrGunnarrsson|Thorgrimr of Dragonsspine]] 11:11, 13 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

Hiya after a long time.  I noticed on two pages, I was getting something weird - black diamonds with question marks in them.  I believe in both cases they took the place of special charchters, like an e with an accent mark on top of it.  I am using Firefox. [[User:Sabine|Sabine]] 06:19, 28 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Content police :^) ===&lt;br /&gt;
I believe that one of the [[Cunnan:What isn&#039;t Cunnan|policies]] for [[Cunnan]] is that it is not to be used by groups as an archive that their own webpages/newsgroups can&#039;t manage. Therefore I am watching the pages for [[Bloodstone Keep Origins Ch 1]] and [[Bloodstone Keep Origins Ch 2]]. If too many of these sort of pages occur, we might have to make a policy edict about them. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 09:46, 10 August 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:As they currently read the Bloodstone pages are OK, in my opinion. As long as they are only documenting events that have happened I don&#039;t think it&#039;s an issue. Planning events or using Cunnan as a genreal archive would be out though. The articles should probably be merged under a better title though. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 13:48, 14 August 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m not sure about these articles.  They don&#039;t strike me as conforming to either the style or the content standards we should have in place here.  I respectfully suggest that &amp;quot;Bloodstone Keep Origins&amp;quot; should more appropriately be an off-site webpage with links from the [[Bloodstone Keep]] article.  [[User:Paul Matisz|Paul Matisz]] 09:57. 21 August 2006 (EST).&lt;br /&gt;
::As far as style goes, I agree with you. It is my own personal bias, but I think that Cunnan should aim for neutral point of view, non-personal accounts.

Sorry I haven&#039;t been updating it. I promise that if nobody else does anything I&#039;ll get to it for November.

===How Do I ... ?===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;create&amp;quot; a Category ?&lt;br /&gt;
We have a number of &amp;quot;wanted&amp;quot; ones, which could probably do with some attention, especially as the &amp;quot;wanted&amp;quot; ones show up on the list of &amp;quot;categories&amp;quot; without a hint that they are, in fact, inchoate ?? -- [[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]] 19:10, 16 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
: I don&#039;t quite follow you, but I&#039;ll try and answer your query. If you edit the category to give it a possible description, then it will be able to show you what articles have been placed in that category. If that description is no longer accurate once you see the category&#039;s members, then either change the description or change what is in the category. &lt;br /&gt;
:If you want to start a brand new category, just put [[[[:category:NEWCATEGORYNAME]]]] somewhere on a page that is a suitable member for  the new category. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:35, 17 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Proposed genocide===&lt;br /&gt;
Arising out of the above (and an attempt to do some categorising of my own work (thanks, [[User: Cian]] and others for your help in times past -- as you know them better than I, please continue) I have noticed that we have a goodly number of categories with only 1 article in them, and I was proposing to carry out a cull, especially targeting those where the category and the article are, effectivly, the same thing.  Given that what I do, a more experienced admin can reverse, does anyone want to stop me before I start, or shall I hack away (discreetly) and allow restoration as wiser heads see fit ? -- [[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]] 22:05, 20 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
: Not everything needs to be in a category. Personally, I think that there are too many, and some pages should not be in a super- and a sub-category , e.g. [[:category:people (medieval)]] and [[:category:monarchs (medieval)]]. So you have my secular blessing if it makes you comfortable. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 17:10, 23 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
::I disagree on the category/sub-category thing. If I am looking for weapons for example, I would like to have the opportunity to narrow it to pole weapons, or archery for example, should I wish. Sub-categories provide opportunities for finding articles more readily and also to include more inclusive article groupings.--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 09:47, 27 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I meant that [[William the Conqueror]] should be in [[:category:monarchs (medieval)]] but not also in [[:category:people (medieval)]], which the monarchs category is also a sub-category of. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 09:55, 27 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
::::If someone is browsing for people in the 11th century, but fails to find the monarchs category they will miss an important part of the people of the medieval era if they are grouped separately.

::New one... [[:category:cooking|category:cooking]] and [[:category:food|category:food]], which one should be a subcategory of the other? Does it matter?

:::I believe that cooking should be a subcategory of food (as not all food needs to be cooked but cooking always involves food), and recipes should be a subcategory of cooking.--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 16:44, 22 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
ON an allied topic, I note that  the category &amp;quot;people - modern&amp;quot; includes both mudane and SCA identities.  Is it worth opening a category: &amp;quot;people -- personae&amp;quot; to distinguish ?  Or is that too much faff ? -- [[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]] 00:49, 30 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Definition of category:people (medieval) ===&lt;br /&gt;
Umm, so now we are deciding that the [[medieval]] world ends at 1500? I&#039;m afraid that that date is as vague as saying when the [[Renaissance]] starts. I think that we need 3 or 4 main categories: people (ancient)= -600AD; people (medieval) or people (period) = 600-1600AD ; people (modern) or people (post-period) = 1600AD -. I have no problem with the term medieval being used for the entire [[SCA]] [[period]] for the purpose of this category. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:54, 26 February 2007 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
* There are many and varied viewpoints on when the end of the Middle Ages occurs. However, IIRC not one goes past 1517 as the end of the High Middle Ages (many have it ending during the middle of the 15th century). If Cunnan is meant to be a reference, then it should follow the standard definitions. Are we intending to change the definitions of other terms in order to provide further confusion to readers--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 17:15, 26 February 2007 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
* Well, what I was trying to indicate was that I really don&#039;t care if people were from the middle ages or the renaissance. I just want to know if they were pre-period, in period, post-period or SCA/recreationist and I would like the categories to match that. While yes, Cunnan is trying to not just be an SCA reference, it does at least have a formally defined finishing date for its concept of &amp;quot;period&amp;quot;. The conventional &amp;quot;epoch/era&amp;quot; terms don&#039;t. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 10:07, 27 February 2007 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
**Well there are over a hundred pages categorised as people (medieval) that would need to be changed to people (period). I think it would be easier if we gave a definitive time frame for these times periods instead. It would certainly be much more expedient. How about 500-1500 Medieval, 1500-1750 Early Modern, 1750-1800 Industrial Revolution, 1800-Present Modern?--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 16:20, 27 February 2007 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

== Query ==&lt;br /&gt;
Excuse me, I think I&#039;m in someone else&#039;s discussion, but don&#039;t know how to do ANYTHING. I want to know how to ASK A QUESTION. I got to &amp;quot;Cunnan&amp;quot; [I want to know what it means, too.] because I wanted to find out why the names of SCA people are often preceded by &amp;quot;THL&amp;quot; but I can&#039;t find an explanation for what it stands for. I also wanted to find out about &amp;quot;the Enchanted Ground&amp;quot;. And actually, I want to know if there is a correct procedure for posing a question when the search button brings no results. I&#039;m sure interrupting somebody&#039;s discussion is not the way. If anyone reads this, I&#039;d be very grateful to find an answer here next time I look. Thank you all. (I&#039;m hunting for an SCA contact near me, but haven&#039;t found one yet [Barcelona]. Thank you again.&lt;br /&gt;
: This is as good a place to ask queries like that as any other place. I will try to direct you to the appropriate pages:&lt;br /&gt;
* [[THL]] is an abbreviation for &amp;quot;The Honourable [[Lord]]&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;The Honourable [[Lady]]&amp;quot;. It means that the individual has received a [[grant of arms]] from the [[King]] and [[Queen]]. Other abbreviations are also used for other [[award]]s, and some describe it as [[alphabet soup]].&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Enchanted Ground]] is an area at an [[SCA]] [[event]], (normally a [[camping event]]) that is formally or informally reserved for [[period]] encampments. This means that the [[tent]]s, [[cooking]] facilities and general appearance of the [[Enchanted Ground]] is more [[medieval]] than a standard campsite. This term may be rather specific to the SCA in [[Australia]] and it actually started as the name of the campsite of a certain [[household]] ([[House Unnamed]]) at the [[Rowany Festival]].&lt;br /&gt;
**I don&#039;t believe that is correct.  Rather, [[Enchanted Ground]] was the brainchild of [[Duke]] [[Cariadoc of the Bow]] and first appeared, I think, at the [[Twentieth Year Celebration]]. He had proposed the idea, if the reference I found is correct, in TI #63, Summer of 1982. [[User:AlexandreDavigne|AlexandreDavigne]] 02:24, 14 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
* Spain is part of the [[SCA]] [[Kingdom of Drachenwald]]. I don&#039;t know if we have an existing [[branch]] in [[Barcelona]]. &lt;br /&gt;
**Check the Drachenvald  website - http://www.drachenwald.sca.org/Regnum/ - it appears that all of Spain is a single Shire, Alcazar de Brioga [[User:AlexandreDavigne|AlexandreDavigne]] 02:45, 14 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
* For the meaning, click on [[Cunnan]].&lt;br /&gt;
: Hope that all helps - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:54, 13 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you all - I&#039;m the original uneducated enquirer. I think you have all answered everything. Except I haven&#039;t found anybody in Barcelona, yet. (I speak Catalan, but not Castilian, and I&#039;m not very interested in the Spanish-speaking middle ages... I&#039;d rather use my French or even struggle with Latin. So I&#039;m hunting for some Catalan anachronists.) Thanks. Sorry to be anonymous, but I&#039;m not anybody, yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Proper adjectives and proper nouns==&lt;br /&gt;
Okay, this is a linguist talking. The word &amp;quot;[[French]]&amp;quot; has a multitude of meanings and ways in which it is in the [[English]] [[language]]. As a noun it refers to a [[language]] and a group of people (a nationality). As an adjective, it refers to things associated with the group of people or the country [[France]] or the language, e.g. a French castle, the French language, his French wife, a French verb. That is how things work in the English language for the word &amp;quot;French&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Up til now, [[Cunnan]] has restricted the page [[French]] to only be for the [[language]]. I have made sure that any links for the people etc have always been [France|French]. Likewise was done for [England|English], [Germany|German] etc. The article with the proper adjective is only for the language.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:AlexandreDavigne| AlexandreDavigne]] has started adding a disambiguation section to [[English]] and [[French]]. This does not sit well with me. I feel that it doesn&#039;t need a disambiguation section. It doesn&#039;t need a disambiguation anything. If you want to know about the Germans, you go to [[Germany]]. If you want to know about the French, you got to [[France]]. If you want to know about specific French, you go to [[Frank]] or [[Gaul]] etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought it would be best to ask the rest of you before I undid Alexandre&#039;s otherwise fine work. If you have disambiguations for one proper noun/adjective, we will (for consistancies sake) have to add them to all. Do we really need such disambiguations?&lt;br /&gt;
- [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:12, 8 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Given the way that English works in common usage, I&#039;d suggest that if disambiguation is deemed unneccessary (or simply redundant), then at the very least a link to the appropriate section be  included with an appropriate explanation.  I can see a case to be made for either approach, but I think just leaving it unaddressed is begging for folks like me to step in and cause this kind of conversation to happen:-)  [[User:AlexandreDavigne|AlexandreDavigne]] 12:00, 8 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I personally dislike pages with multiple definitions. I would prefer to see an italicised headnote along the lines of &#039;&#039;This article refers to the French language. For other uses of the word &#039;&#039;French&#039;&#039; see [[France]] and [[kiss]]ing.&#039;&#039; This of course is a matter of personal preference and I am happy to go for what most people feel is better. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 22:55, 13 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::That would work for me - -I just think that leaving it unaddressed is not a particularly good idea; if I (or many folk, I suspect) enter &amp;quot;the French&amp;quot; in the search box, I would expect to find an article about the French people.  As I say, your solution works for me (although I don&#039;t particularly dislike mutliple definition pages.  I don&#039;t really care one way or the other).

=== Spam flood ===&lt;br /&gt;
As anyone who looked at [[Special:Recentchanges]] today probably noticed Cunnan was the target of a group of spam bots who touched a large number of pages. The domain the bots were spamming has now been added to the antispam filter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been through all the touched pages and have edited and saved the most recent useable version of each. Unfortunately, the spam bots unwittingly hit a bug in the software which means that the the page revisions before each of their edits have most probably been corrupted. If anyone feels like spending an hour helping to cleanup then they should go through my edits for the day and check that the page revision I restored each article to was optimal (i.e. the second most recent revision in most cases).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cunnan&#039;s software has been upgraded so that the database corruption wont occur again even if the spam bots return.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 23:35, 8 Oct 2005 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hmm, it just happened again. I believe I have got rid of the spam, but it was done using multiple &amp;quot;machines&amp;quot; so it wasn&#039;t worth my time blocking everyone. Also some pages were hit multiple times. Rollback only works for the last action on the page, including rollbacks, so some of the fixes had to be edits. Nasty! I understand Tobin&#039;s problems the first time. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 09:53, 22 Oct 2005 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
** Three cheers for Cian! Thanks for doing the dirty work Cian, the fact that you and Tobin have done this is much appreciated. Given that this is the second time this has happened maybe it&#039;s time that we adopted a policy of only allowing editing for people who have logged in. It&#039;s not a foolproof defence I know, and it makes us feel less welcoming, but it would save a lot of aggravation. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 20:55, 22 Oct 2005 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
*** The most nasty wiki spam bots use a mixture of accounts and anonymous edits (the attack today and the first major attack are both examples of this). Forcing people to register only inconveniences humans. I&#039;ve updated the anti spam filter to include the &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; id that the recent spam attacks have all included. Hopefully this will catch future attacks from this bot. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 04:57, 5 Nov 2005 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
*** The two attacks I have &amp;quot;cleaned up&amp;quot; today all targetted the same files but the second one created blank pages. I wonder if they were doing so for a purpose?

&lt;br /&gt;
* Not quite a flood this time, but the same pages have been attacked by the same sort of spam from various different &amp;quot;users&amp;quot;. Is there anyway we can combat that sort of spam (other than the manual power of moderator&#039;s fingers) ? I have been banning the users for 2 weeks, but it really is pointless if they just come back with a new &amp;quot;name&amp;quot; the next day. Is it possible to prevent people/bots using usernames that are in the format of URLs (eg. 218.53.104.2)? - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 08:49, 23 Jun 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* I&#039;ve just enabled two things that should help reduce the amount of spam we&#039;re getting. The first is proxy blocking using [http://www.au.sorbs.net/ SORBS]. This may catch a few legitimate users but that&#039;s unlikely (and if it does, well, they shouldn&#039;t be accessing the internet via an open proxy anyway). The second is [[wikipedia:Captcha|Captcha]]s for any edit which adds a URL to a page or changes an existing URL. For the time being the captchas are simple maths problems, e.g. &amp;quot;38 - 6 =&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;12 + 0 =&amp;quot;. I&#039;m going to e-mail [[User:Del|Del]] about the possibility of having the software required for image captchas installed on chiara (Cunnan&#039;s server). There may still be a few spammers which get through but this will stop the stupider bots and most non-humans. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 19:39, 22 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
** Just a minor thing about Captcha; when you come to the maths problem, and there&#039;s a link that should point to some information about why it&#039;s there/what it is, the link is broken. I think this is because it&#039;s supposed to be linking to the wikipedia article, but instead it&#039;s linking to cunnan?&lt;br /&gt;

===Protected Pages===&lt;br /&gt;

*I have just protected a couple of pages that have been repeatedly hiit by a spambot. These pages are [[woman]] and [[convent]]. I will try to remember to remove the protection once that particular spambot has given up. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 22:22, 25 Jun 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

*I can&#039;t interpret the technical stuff (I&#039;ll leave that to others, who i hope will log in soon), but it&#039;s working fine for me too, on a recent version of firefox.  Maybe this is a timing issue - [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] and I are in the same timezone, and may be logging in a quieter time of day than you useage-wise.

=== Software Upgrade ===&lt;br /&gt;
Cunnan has been upgrade to version 1.6.8 of the Mediawiki software. If anything appears broken or acts weirdly mention it here so that someone can look at it. It&#039;s worth noting that there have been major changes to the database including conversion to UTF-8 encoding. This should have worked but some special characters may be messed up. You can help Cunnan by fixing them as you find them. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 19:12, 12 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:All the unusual characters are out. I know that you&#039;ve changed a couple of the AE ligatures on AEthelmearc, but there are lots of other characters such as the Forme of Cury recipes, and the Exeter Book riddles. I seem to recall last time this happened you were able to do a fix without editing every single item. Any chance of doing that again? [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 22:46, 12 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
::No, sadly, the newer version of the software requires the database to be in UTF-8. I&#039;m at a loss as to why the conversion didn&#039;t work. I&#039;m going to have another look at it in the morning but I&#039;m not sure if it can be easily fixed. If it can&#039;t be then will just have to bite the bullet and fix problem pages manually. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 23:21, 12 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Congrats on the upgrade! I hope you&#039;ll now be able to implement some of the extensions that help to address the wikispam issues. At mine, we ended up simply having to force a confirmed email address before editing, which unfortunately meant no anon edit at all, but since they only account for 1% of our contributions (besides spam) we went ahead with the plan. As far as you UTF-8 issue, I think it either has to do with PHP or with going from an early 1.4 version all the way to 1.6 in a single jump. I&#039;m also working on the rest of the kingdom devices and their populace badges where I can. --[[User:ThorgrimrGunnarrsson|Thorgrimr of Dragonsspine]] 11:11, 13 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
: Why don&#039;t we just change them all to the accented letters etc to the &amp;amp;; forms, e.g. &amp;amp;AElig; and &amp;amp;egrave; They are charset independent. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 16:34, 13 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

=== Navigation links ===&lt;br /&gt;
The links in the sidebar to [[Current events]] and [[Cunnan:Site support]] aren&#039;t used for much at present. Does anyone have a suggestion for something they might be replaced with? I might send Del an e-mail asking if collecting donations to go towards the cost of hosting is possible. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 13:49, 13 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== weird characters ===&lt;br /&gt;
Hiya after a long time.  I noticed on two pages, I was getting something weird - black diamonds with question marks in them.  I believe in both cases they took the place of special charchters, like an e with an accent mark on top of it.  I am using Firefox. [[User:Sabine|Sabine]] 06:19, 28 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:Known problem. The database should have been converted to UTF-8 during the most recent upgrade but something went wrong. I haven&#039;t had time to try and fix it yet. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 11:41, 28 July 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Content police :^) ===&lt;br /&gt;
I believe that one of the [[Cunnan:What isn&#039;t Cunnan|policies]] for [[Cunnan]] is that it is not to be used by groups as an archive that their own webpages/newsgroups can&#039;t manage. Therefore I am watching the pages for [[Bloodstone Keep Origins Ch 1]] and [[Bloodstone Keep Origins Ch 2]]. If too many of these sort of pages occur, we might have to make a policy edict about them. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 09:46, 10 August 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:As they currently read the Bloodstone pages are OK, in my opinion. As long as they are only documenting events that have happened I don&#039;t think it&#039;s an issue. Planning events or using Cunnan as a genreal archive would be out though. The articles should probably be merged under a better title though. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 13:48, 14 August 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m not sure about these articles.  They don&#039;t strike me as conforming to either the style or the content standards we should have in place here.  I respectfully suggest that &amp;quot;Bloodstone Keep Origins&amp;quot; should more appropriately be an off-site webpage with links from the [[Bloodstone Keep]] article.  [[User:Paul Matisz|Paul Matisz]] 09:57. 21 August 2006 (EST).&lt;br /&gt;
::As far as style goes, I agree with you. It is my own personal bias, but I think that Cunnan should aim for neutral point of view, non-personal accounts. I personally think that this level of content is great. I would love to see this much detail on every SCA group. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 23:29, 19 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:You can always add new proposed pages to [[Cunnan:Page of the Month]] (see bottom section). As to editting the actual [[Main Page]], it just needs us mods to get to action since we are the only ones who can change it. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sorry I haven&#039;t been updating it. I promise that if nobody else does anything I&#039;ll get to it for November. In the meantime, like Cian says, please put any good pages you see (or write) on the [[Cunnan:Page of the Month]] page.

===How Do I ... ?===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;create&amp;quot; a Category ?&lt;br /&gt;
We have a number of &amp;quot;wanted&amp;quot; ones, which could probably do with some attention, especially as the &amp;quot;wanted&amp;quot; ones show up on the list of &amp;quot;categories&amp;quot; without a hint that they are, in fact, inchoate ?? -- [[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]] 19:10, 16 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
: I don&#039;t quite follow you, but I&#039;ll try and answer your query. If you edit the category to give it a possible description, then it will be able to show you what articles have been placed in that category. If that description is no longer accurate once you see the category&#039;s members, then either change the description or change what is in the category. &lt;br /&gt;
:If you want to start a brand new category, just put [[[[:category:NEWCATEGORYNAME]]]] somewhere on a page that is a suitable member for  the new category. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:35, 17 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:: Fine, so it&#039;s just a matter of &#039;&#039;describing&#039;&#039; the category.  Good, can do that.  Thanks, Cian. -- [[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Proposed genocide===&lt;br /&gt;
Arising out of the above (and an attempt to do some categorising of my own work (thanks, [[User: Cian]] and others for your help in times past -- as you know them better than I, please continue) I have noticed that we have a goodly number of categories with only 1 article in them, and I was proposing to carry out a cull, especially targeting those where the category and the article are, effectivly, the same thing.  Given that what I do, a more experienced admin can reverse, does anyone want to stop me before I start, or shall I hack away (discreetly) and allow restoration as wiser heads see fit ? -- [[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]] 22:05, 20 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
: Not everything needs to be in a category. Personally, I think that there are too many, and some pages should not be in a super- and a sub-category , e.g. [[:category:people (medieval)]] and [[:category:monarchs (medieval)]]. So you have my secular blessing if it makes you comfortable. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 17:10, 23 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
::I disagree on the category/sub-category thing. If I am looking for weapons for example, I would like to have the opportunity to narrow it to pole weapons, or archery for example, should I wish. Sub-categories provide opportunities for finding articles more readily and also to include more inclusive article groupings.--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 09:47, 27 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I meant that [[William the Conqueror]] should be in [[:category:monarchs (medieval)]] but not also in [[:category:people (medieval)]], which the monarchs category is also a sub-category of. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 09:55, 27 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
::::If someone is browsing for people in the 11th century, but fails to find the monarchs category they will miss an important part of the people of the medieval era if they are grouped separately. Classification begins a the top and branches down in an inclusive, nor exclusive manner.eg genus/species, IMHO.--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 09:59, 27 October 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Well, I&#039;ve started the process anyway, and will csrry it through as best I can. -- [[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]]&lt;br /&gt;
::New one... [[:category:cooking|category:cooking]] and [[:category:food|category:food]], which one should be a subcategory of the other? Does it matter? Should they both be each other&#039;s subcategory? What about [[:category:recipes|category:recipes]]? - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:35, 22 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I believe that cooking should be a subcategory of food (as not all food needs to be cooked but cooking always involves food), and recipes should be a subcategory of cooking.--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 16:44, 22 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
ON an allied topic, I note that  the category &amp;quot;people - modern&amp;quot; includes both mudane and SCA identities.  Is it worth opening a category: &amp;quot;people -- personae&amp;quot; to distinguish ?  Or is that too much faff ? -- [[User:Simoncursitor|Simoncursitor]] 00:49, 30 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Definition of category:people (medieval) ===&lt;br /&gt;
Umm, so now we are deciding that the [[medieval]] world ends at 1500? I&#039;m afraid that that date is as vague as saying when the [[Renaissance]] starts. I think that we need 3 or 4 main categories: people (ancient)= -600AD; people (medieval) or people (period) = 600-1600AD ; people (modern) or people (post-period) = 1600AD -. I have no problem with the term medieval being used for the entire [[SCA]] [[period]] for the purpose of this category. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:54, 26 February 2007 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
* There are many and varied viewpoints on when the end of the Middle Ages occurs. However, IIRC not one goes past 1517 as the end of the High Middle Ages (many have it ending during the middle of the 15th century). If Cunnan is meant to be a reference, then it should follow the standard definitions. Are we intending to change the definitions of other terms in order to provide further confusion to readers--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 17:15, 26 February 2007 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
* Well, what I was trying to indicate was that I really don&#039;t care if people were from the middle ages or the renaissance. I just want to know if they were pre-period, in period, post-period or SCA/recreationist and I would like the categories to match that. While yes, Cunnan is trying to not just be an SCA reference, it does at least have a formally defined finishing date for its concept of &amp;quot;period&amp;quot;. The conventional &amp;quot;epoch/era&amp;quot; terms don&#039;t. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 10:07, 27 February 2007 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
**Well there are over a hundred pages categorised as people (medieval) that would need to be changed to people (period). I think it would be easier if we gave a definitive time frame for these times periods instead. It would certainly be much more expedient. How about 500-1500 Medieval, 1500-1750 Early Modern, 1750-1800 Industrial Revolution, 1800-Present Modern?--[[User:User 144|User 144]] 16:20, 27 February 2007 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;

== Query ==&lt;br /&gt;
Excuse me, I think I&#039;m in someone else&#039;s discussion, but don&#039;t know how to do ANYTHING. I want to know how to ASK A QUESTION. I got to &amp;quot;Cunnan&amp;quot; [I want to know what it means, too.] because I wanted to find out why the names of SCA people are often preceded by &amp;quot;THL&amp;quot; but I can&#039;t find an explanation for what it stands for. I also wanted to find out about &amp;quot;the Enchanted Ground&amp;quot;. And actually, I want to know if there is a correct procedure for posing a question when the search button brings no results. I&#039;m sure interrupting somebody&#039;s discussion is not the way. If anyone reads this, I&#039;d be very grateful to find an answer here next time I look. Thank you all. (I&#039;m hunting for an SCA contact near me, but haven&#039;t found one yet [Barcelona]. Thank you again.&lt;br /&gt;
: This is as good a place to ask queries like that as any other place. I will try to direct you to the appropriate pages:&lt;br /&gt;
* [[THL]] is an abbreviation for &amp;quot;The Honourable [[Lord]]&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;The Honourable [[Lady]]&amp;quot;. It means that the individual has received a [[grant of arms]] from the [[King]] and [[Queen]]. Other abbreviations are also used for other [[award]]s, and some describe it as [[alphabet soup]].&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Enchanted Ground]] is an area at an [[SCA]] [[event]], (normally a [[camping event]]) that is formally or informally reserved for [[period]] encampments. This means that the [[tent]]s, [[cooking]] facilities and general appearance of the [[Enchanted Ground]] is more [[medieval]] than a standard campsite. This term may be rather specific to the SCA in [[Australia]] and it actually started as the name of the campsite of a certain [[household]] ([[House Unnamed]]) at the [[Rowany Festival]].&lt;br /&gt;
**I don&#039;t believe that is correct.  Rather, [[Enchanted Ground]] was the brainchild of [[Duke]] [[Cariadoc of the Bow]] and first appeared, I think, at the [[Twentieth Year Celebration]]. He had proposed the idea, if the reference I found is correct, in TI #63, Summer of 1982. [[User:AlexandreDavigne|AlexandreDavigne]] 02:24, 14 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
* Spain is part of the [[SCA]] [[Kingdom of Drachenwald]]. I don&#039;t know if we have an existing [[branch]] in [[Barcelona]]. &lt;br /&gt;
**Check the Drachenvald  website - http://www.drachenwald.sca.org/Regnum/ - it appears that all of Spain is a single Shire, Alcazar de Brioga [[User:AlexandreDavigne|AlexandreDavigne]] 02:45, 14 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
* For the meaning, click on [[Cunnan]].&lt;br /&gt;
: Hope that all helps - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:54, 13 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you all - I&#039;m the original uneducated enquirer. I think you have all answered everything. Except I haven&#039;t found anybody in Barcelona, yet. (I speak Catalan, but not Castilian, and I&#039;m not very interested in the Spanish-speaking middle ages... I&#039;d rather use my French or even struggle with Latin. So I&#039;m hunting for some Catalan anachronists.) Thanks. Sorry to be anonymous, but I&#039;m not anybody, yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Proper adjectives and proper nouns==&lt;br /&gt;
Okay, this is a linguist talking. The word &amp;quot;[[French]]&amp;quot; has a multitude of meanings and ways in which it is in the [[English]] [[language]]. As a noun it refers to a [[language]] and a group of people (a nationality). As an adjective, it refers to things associated with the group of people or the country [[France]] or the language, e.g. a French castle, the French language, his French wife, a French verb. That is how things work in the English language for the word &amp;quot;French&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Up til now, [[Cunnan]] has restricted the page [[French]] to only be for the [[language]]. I have made sure that any links for the people etc have always been [France|French]. Likewise was done for [England|English], [Germany|German] etc. The article with the proper adjective is only for the language.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:AlexandreDavigne| AlexandreDavigne]] has started adding a disambiguation section to [[English]] and [[French]]. This does not sit well with me. I feel that it doesn&#039;t need a disambiguation section. It doesn&#039;t need a disambiguation anything. If you want to know about the Germans, you go to [[Germany]]. If you want to know about the French, you got to [[France]]. If you want to know about specific French, you go to [[Frank]] or [[Gaul]] etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought it would be best to ask the rest of you before I undid Alexandre&#039;s otherwise fine work. If you have disambiguations for one proper noun/adjective, we will (for consistancies sake) have to add them to all. Do we really need such disambiguations?&lt;br /&gt;
- [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 11:12, 8 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Given the way that English works in common usage, I&#039;d suggest that if disambiguation is deemed unneccessary (or simply redundant), then at the very least a link to the appropriate section be  included with an appropriate explanation.  I can see a case to be made for either approach, but I think just leaving it unaddressed is begging for folks like me to step in and cause this kind of conversation to happen:-)  [[User:AlexandreDavigne|AlexandreDavigne]] 12:00, 8 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I personally dislike pages with multiple definitions. I would prefer to see an italicised headnote along the lines of &#039;&#039;This article refers to the French language. For other uses of the word &#039;&#039;French&#039;&#039; see [[France]] and [[kiss]]ing.&#039;&#039; This of course is a matter of personal preference and I am happy to go for what most people feel is better. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 22:55, 13 November 2006 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::That would work for me - -I just think that leaving it unaddressed is not a particularly good idea; if I (or many folk, I suspect) enter &amp;quot;the French&amp;quot; in the search box, I would expect to find an article about the French people.  As I say, your solution works for me (although I don&#039;t particularly dislike mutliple definition pages.  I don&#039;t really care one way or the other).

The &#039;&#039;&#039;eagle&#039;&#039;&#039; is a large [[bird of prey]], known for large wingspan and keen eyesight. The golden eagle is found in [[Europe]], [[Asia]] and [[North America]]. Various sea-eagles are also found in [[Europe]]. Eagles were used by the upper nobility for [[falconry]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The eagle was the symbol of Imperial [[Rome]], and appeared on a lot of royal [[heraldry]] in Central and Eastern Europe, much as the [[lion]] was used in Western Europe. It is normally blazoned [[displayed]], having its wings spread and its head to the side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The eagle was also commonly used as the [[Christian]] [[12th Century symbolism|symbol]] for [[St John]] the Evangelist, one of [[Jesus Christ]]&#039;s disciples. This can be seen in many locations, including [[stained-glass window]]s and [[illumination|illuminated]] [[manuscript]]s like the [[Book of Hours]] or the [[Book of Kells]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[Image:Herald.png|right|Herald&#039;s badge]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Heraldry&#039;&#039;&#039; is the [[medieval]] [[A&amp;amp;S|art and science]] that deals with the creation, use, and recognition of visual displays that identify an individual person, [[guild]], [[town]], [[officer|office]] or other entity. This was typically done through much of the [[Middle Ages]] using a [[paint]]ed [[shield]] which bore a (largely) unique arrangement of [[Line_divisions|division lines]], and objects known as &amp;quot;[[charges]]&amp;quot;. Early in the Medieval [[period]], this &amp;quot;[[coat of arms]]&amp;quot; was unique to an individual, only becoming associated with a family in the late [[Renaissance]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In modern and period worlds, heraldry tends to be governed by the [[laws|rules]] set by the [[herald]]s of the [[College of Arms]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Heraldry in the SCA ==&lt;br /&gt;
In the [[SCA]], heraldry is concerned with [[ceremony|ceremonies]] and [[Court]]s, the crying of announcements and proclaimations, the pomp and circumstance of the [[Tournament]], and the authentication and registration of [[member]]s&#039; [[persona]] [[names]] and [[arms]] or [[badge]]s. These areas of interest give rise to the terms &amp;quot;[[court heraldry]]&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;field (or list) heraldry&amp;quot; (both also known as &amp;quot;[[voice heraldry]]&amp;quot;) and &amp;quot;[[book heraldry]]&amp;quot; (which also includes the background work and research in arranging ceremonies). &lt;br /&gt;
The SCA [[symbol]] for a [[herald]] is &#039;&#039;&amp;quot;[[Vert]], two [[cornet]]s in [[saltire]] [[Or]]&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The SCA has its own [[College of Arms]].&lt;br /&gt;
