Raid Cycle - malkovich/bibanon GitHub Wiki
{{Policy|w/i/ki:CYCLE}}
The Raid Cycle is a theoretical model of how /i/nvasions are conducted.
A good /i/ raid should last as short as possible from planning to execution - no more than 48 hours - to prevent spais and whiteknighting from alerting the target and ruining the raid.
- Raid is proposed in Le_/i/nsurgency.
- If proposal is good, make wiki article based on Site Raid Template or Personal Raid Template, using the Template:Raid_Infobox, following the format "Operation: Something".
- Make a 209 x 195 pixel raid icon to go at the top left of the page.
- A sysop will add the raid to the Raids page under the Raids#Raids that Need Your Help heading.
- Begin the planning to include the method, target, site or personal information, and IRC channel. Discuss this in Le_/i/nsurgency.
- Arrange for recon of the target and add information to wiki.
- When {{Tname|Raid Infobox}} is completed, a sysop will move the raid to Raids#Good_New_Raids on the Raids page.
- Complete the planning to include the the raid time and date, and add the raid to the Events Calendar by adding Category:Events and Category:dd/mm/yyyy to the bottom of the page.
- Issue the orders by making promotional material, YouTube videos, etc., to be publicized on the Le_/i/nsurgency
- Supervise on /i/ and in IRC to ensure everyone knows and follows the raid plan.
- The raid that is most likely to be Featured within the week will be placed in Upcoming Raids
- The best new raid that will be active within 3 days will be Featured on the Main Page, listed in the irc.helldive.org #insurgnecy irc channel.
- When the Featured Raid ends, it will be listed under Previous Raid on the Main Page with an icon 150 pixels wide.
- After each raid,
- An After Action Report should be conducted on the raid's Talk Page, stating: what happened, what went well, what didn't, and suggestions for improvement.
- Once the raid is declared over and done, all lulz milked from the target, it'll be moved under the Old Raids heading. {{tutorials}}
