Info for leavers

We've had a few emails from people who are finishing at Warwick, wanting to know what will happen to their blog. Just so everyone knows, here's the deal:-

1. We won't unilaterally delete anyone's blog at all, either now or in the future. You don't need to contact us to ask us not to delete your blog, because we aren't going to.


2. If you do want us to delete your blog now that you're leaving Warwick, send an email to blogs@warwick.ac.uk with the name and URL of your blog and we'll remove it.


3. While the content of your blog will persist indefinitely unless you tell us otherwise, at some point your usercode and password will expire, and then you won't be able to log in to create new entries or edit your blog. Your blog will effectively become a read-only record of your time at Warwick.


4. If you want to carry on using your blog after you leave, you need to join WGA. Once you've done this, we'll make you a new usercode and password to sign in to your blog with. You should be emailed a new username and password in good time before your old one expires, but if you find that you can't sign in at some point in the future, don't panic; your blog is quite safe and we just need to give you new credentials to carry on using it. Drop us an email at blogs@warwick.ac.uk, optionally berating us for our stupidity in not telling you your new username before your old one expired, and we'll sort it out for you.

Good luck with whatever comes next for you all.
