@Antvasima This is what ive got so far. Let me know what you think and if theres anything else to add. This is to be added to the Standard Format for Verse Pages page

 

[Antvasima]

I personally think that it seems acceptable, but we need input from the other staff members here as well.

No, you reply as much as is necessary, if only to try to rally the troops across the finish line. I just mean that threads tend to drag on and on, getting staff input here but then moving on to there where that input may not really be relevant anymore. So then one must muster the staff again, who have already pivoted to other threads that are reportedly very important for them to look at, but then the thread is discussed more and it moves once more... the bureaucracy is necessary, but it is evil. It is a monster that eats time. I shift from neutral to hesitantly accepting in the interests of not allowing it to consume more here.

Pretty funny that it happened anyway, but for a different reason lmao

Seemed fine to me too, but admittedly I'm not the best when judging how to word things for our pages

 

[Qawsedf234]

Does this seem acceptable to you?

In a vacuum, sure, but all the points Bambu raised about canon conflicts are something to consider. But being more defined is generally not a bad idea in my mind.

 

[Jinx666]

Canon conflicts will always happen, but at least the wiki can have somewhere to illustrate what it considers canon in its information and get people on the same page, and highlights that people can make a CRT to discuss any issues regarding the canon.

Other than that, its a decent way of grasping the scale of content for some verses as well

 

[Firestorm808]

I'm fine with this being an optional option, think some verses already have something like this.

I share the same sentiment.

People, what we need to vote on now is the following

The section already got more than enough support to be accepted, but we need to put it in writing

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

Agreed. This should be an optional thing to add

 

[Jinx666]

Bump

Just needs final approval in-writing from @Antvasima

[Antvasima]

This seems to have been accepted.

So where in the verse pages should we place this new section?

Standard Format for Verse Pages

Insert a picture of the Verse at the very top, just above the Summary section. For pictures that are wider horizontally, the alignment is to the center, and the maximum size is 590px, in order to fit in tablet screens. For pictures that are longer vertically, or are of similar size in both...

[Jinx666]

Id say after the 'Power of the Verse' section (Which is just an overview) and before 'Explanations', since Continuity of a Verse is for establishing first and foremost. Its best to give context on what canons are being used at the start

 

[Jinx666]

Can this be added now?

If Ant disagrees on the placement when he next shows up in this thread, its an easy edit but I think its worth putting up now.

 

[Jinx666]

Bump

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

I'd personally like having it after the summary as it's more important than "power of the verse" imho

That seems fine to me.

@IdiosyncraticLawyer

Are you or some other staff member here willing and able to properly apply this change?

 

[Antvasima]

Yes, that is true. Never mind then. That seems fine to me as well.

[Jinx666]

I mean i could ask on the All-Purpose thread to get the page temporarily opened and copy/paste the text (after the Summary, and then ill link this thread in the edit description), unless it needs to be a member of staff who does it.

 

[Antvasima]

If you are able to apply the revision in a very careful and accurate manner, and only as an optional section, that is probably fine.

 

[Jinx666]

Lovely, i'll ask

 

[Jinx666]

I've applied the edit now, placed it after Summary and copy/pasted from the blog

Would this change potentially warrant an alert/advertised in some form, so that a wider mass of people are aware of it and could potentially be able to add the section to Verse Pages they are knowledgable about?

Otherwise, this should be able to close now! Thanks so much!

I might be able to release it as a double announcement together with our new intelligence section standards.
