Honesty admin

This page chronicles the administrative changes to honesty.progclub.org. If you make an administrative change you should document the change here. Changes are logged he in reverse chronological order with a time-stamp in the form YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm. You can use the time from whatever timezone you are in, or UTC if you're cool, but use 24 hour time. Don't worry if the changes you make have a time-stamp that is less than a time-stamp later in the page, put the latest changes at the top. Put a link to your wiki user account before the time-stamp so we know who's doing what. See the Administrative reference for other information.
