With the Scribe's blessing, one thing I'd like to do first is a little wiki-editing, actually. The articles related to the Organic Law are rather jumbled at the moment, and in some cases links point to the 1997 OrgLaw, when in reality it would be more sensible to have them redirect to the current version.

Absolutely. After I've finished updating the 56th Cosa (I have a PD and the newly minted referenda to add to the OrgLaw), I'll get you access to edit the law space (I think that is the correct term). As of right now, I'm the only one who edit the actual laws themselves.

That whole thing is needlessly confusing. There is only one organic law. The 1997 law was not deprecated, but specifically and legally only amended. All links to the organic law should go to the only actual in force organic law, not some to the correct one and some to an older version of it.

Fortunately, this is a very easy fix. Just replace the text at the organic law article with the current updated text, and redirect the other one to that too. Will take only a few minutes.

I've also noticed a bunch of formatting problems in the current el Lexhatx, almost all of which are holdovers from before the current scribery. Would it be helpful to make a list of these on the wiki, post about it here, or what?

Actually, I'd also be willing to help out as a deputy if need be - I'm loathe to overextend myself but many hands make light work.

A lot of this of course stems back to the decision that a previous Scribe made, when the 2017 OrgLaw was enacted, to not overwrite the 1997 OrgLaw, for reasons I never found clear or convincing. Great if this can be fixed.

It's trivial to fix, really. One of the great strengths of a wiki!

Yeah: just for context, Auto, the namespace on the wiki for the laws is protected so that only users with the "Scribe" rights are able to edit them.  So before you can assist, he has to put you in that usergroup.

Cool.  I just finally got around to bringing my own page up to date, so I'm feeling antsy and ready to do something.

Alexandreu and I have not always seen eye to eye on Talossan matters.  I will, however and gladly, defend to the death his enthusiasm and love for Talossa as well as his ability to hopefully be Deputy Scribe working alongside Txec for years to come.  They will be a great team. - GV

Okay, I deleted the superfluous 2017 Orglaw page and redirected it to the real page. I also fixed the front page, plus a dozen or so problems with el Lexhatx.
