Who are these "non-contributing administrators" you speak of? The page wasn't removed by any administrator, contributing or otherwise.
The wiki has mainly contained information about RS3D, not easily found in the official manual. The wiki was never intended to be a carbon-copy of the manual since that only raises unnecessary problems of maintaining consistency. Besides, what would be the point of having redundant information on the wiki? Now, to relate to the greeblez! page, the initial page was, in fact, the user-manual for Real Greeblez!. This was ok since, at that time, the script was shipped with no manual and there was no natural "home" for such a manual. This has changed, Real Greeblez! has a web site of it's own, this site is linked to from the image contest site and wikipedia. The Real Greeblez! script now ships with a manual and a tutorial that shows how to use the script. There is no need for copying the manual to the wiki, in fact, due to consistency problems, its presence on the wiki could, theoretically cause more damage than assistance. This means that the wiki can go back to be about things _not_ explicitly listed in the official manuals. If you want to make a tutorial about performing a specific task, that maybe nobody even thought about using Real Greeblez! for, feel free to make a new page for that. But I do not think that an outdated copy of the manual is helpful at all. As a final note, if you had taken the time to look at the page history you would have noticed that it was Zaug himself who removed the link to the page. And even though anyone can add and remove things from a wiki, I think that the author of the product has a little bit more than others to say about pages concerning his/her product.

Couldn't find it , so I gave up . If the page is that offensive , it could have easily been up- dated by deleting the nasty redundant content and add a link to http://www.catmtn.com/realgreeblez "for-up-to-date-Doc's" . That's the whole idea behind the wiki impetus . Edit , add , delete page content , modify ... perfect ! (verb) . It was not designed to give non-contributing administrators an opportunity to decide what should be and what should not . Oh well , such is life , n'est pas ? > Zaug Garry
