Please edit in WYSIWYG or HTML mode (not wiki syntax). You can add new rows by right clicking within the table.
Recent revisions to the wiki can also be seen by clicking the History button at the bottom of the page. If you register for an account on the wiki and login, you can also Monitor the page by clicking on the eyeball in the upper right and receive email notifications of changes. Finally, there is an RSS feed of recent changes for the whole wiki (in progress). An old revision should not be restored at any time! Unless, of course, you manage to make so many errors while editing the page that you can’t fix them all one by one. Then you can go back by one revision. If you go back by more you’ve also erased other people’s rumours inadvertently. We have chosen to adopt a hands-off policy for the Job Rumor Mill; however, you may contact admin at astrobetter.com for technical difficulties.
If a rumour you put on keeps getting removed by someone else (and that rumour is not about you) please respect that person’s wishes–they might have reasons to keep it private and/or your rumour might be wrong.
Please include a link to the job when adding it to the list.
If possible, it would also be helpful to include names when offers are made and accepted, since this helps to differentiate wrong rumours from right ones. And please include the dates as well.
