An incident is any technical problem that needs to be fixed urgently, i.e. we can't say "we'll fix it next week". This could be as serious as dead air, or something less serious but still serious, for instance if a show needs to get cancelled as a result.

If you feel like you don’t know enough to fix the problem yourself, don’t be afraid to escalate, usually with a message in #studio-faults. If it’s a serious fault (dead air), @channel.

If you know the solution is very quick/simple, i.e. “Help! The presenter mic in red is wobbly!”, Don’t waste time declaring an recovery leader. In this case the response is “yes we know, we’ll send an engineer in with a tiny Ben Allen Key soon”.

You will need to create two threads in Engineering, Computing, or Studio Faults (whichever you deem most appropriate). One thread for all respondents to discuss their ideas/solutions and another for you to convey your final decision to the Incident Worker or those remotely accessing equipment.
