| + | WSO claims no responsibility for its users' content in pages hosted on our servers, including forum posts, announcements, the Facebook, Willipedia pages, personal websites, or other material. Their actions and statements are their own, and do not reflect the actions and views of WSO, its administrators, staff, or other users. Given that we are a small, student-run organization, we cannot be expected to police the wealth of information that our users post daily. That being said, we rely on the users themselves to notify us when they deem something offensive, personal, or inappropriate to the general public. If you deem something unfit for the site, please contact an admin directly via the [[http://wso.williams.edu/wso/staff | staff page]] or send an email to ''root'' ''[at]'' ''wso.williams.edu'' identifying the offending information and where it can be found. Thank you for your cooperation. | ||

| + | ==== Facebook Content ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | WSO Facebook data is drawn from OIT‘s LDAP and Ph servers. We do our best to keep this data up to date, and run several Facebook updates per semester. If you find that data is wrong, you may first verify that it is correct in your [[http://sarah.williams.edu/ | PeopleSoft database]], and notify us if you find that your personal data does not reflect what is present on OIT‘s servers. We will then update our database to match information stored in OIT‘s servers. If you would like us to run a facebook update, please wait a business day for PeopleSoft changes to be reflected on OIT's servers, then contact us at ''wso'' ''[at]'' ''wso.williams.edu''. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If the above process does not change the data in question, you may request that we manually update our database by emailing ''wso'' ''[at]'' ''wso.williams.edu''. Please be patient, we are busy too. Changes must be appropriate and reflect verifiable truth. | ||
