Important! Categories in sandboxes and blog posts

[Antvasima]

Hello.

It is extremely important that ALL of our members permanently stop inserting any categories whatsoever into sandboxes and any inappropriate categories into blog posts, as it messes up our wiki's organisation structure to a very extreme degree by spamming our category lists with completely irrelevant additions, and takes me massive amounts of time to continuously vainly try to clean up.

I need help from our entire community with continuously systematically removing inappropriate categories from all sandboxes whenever you notice this problem, and to do so from your own blog posts if you know that you have messed up in this regard.

Take note that it is perfectly good to always use the "Blog posts" category for any type of blog post, that the "Calculations" category should be used for calculation blogs, and that the relevant verse categories should be used for calculation or explanation blogs that have been officially accepted by our calc group members (For example, the "Naruto" category can be added to a calculation blog for this verse after it has been accepted.), so those categories should definitely NOT be removed.

Here is a blog that uses acceptable standard categories, for example:

A Modern Myth - Prometheus Exists

vsbattles.fandom.com

Wiki sandboxes can be edited by all of our members, but blog posts can only be edited by our administrators, so I would appreciate if our members link to any blog posts with inappropriate categories here in this thread, so our administrators can help out by removing them.

Content moderators who are willing to help out with this project will also receive temporary wiki administrator rights while they are doing so, so they can edit blog posts as well. However, it is a big responsibility, so they have to promise to be very careful so they do not cause any harm to our wiki structure.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Your help with this extremely important project would be greatly appreciated.

 

[ByAsura]

I’ll take a look tomorrow.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you. Your help is very appreciated.

 

[ElixirBlue]

I agree. I have, on occasion, remove categories from sandboxes. But I haven’t fully went in, because I don’t wanna start drama with other staff members over messing with their Sandboxes.

 

[Damage3245]

Might it not be better to separate the calculation blog posts from the main verse category? So we could have:

"Naruto Calculations" category.
"One Punch Man Calculations" category, etc.

And then all of those can be grouped together in a "Calculations by Verse" category. Which could help with navigating around calculations and also stop some verse categories being flooded with too many blogs added to them.

 

[ElixirBlue]

Might it not be better to separate the calculation blog posts from the main verse category? So we could have:

"Naruto Calculations" category.
"One Punch Man Calculations" category, etc.

I was thinking that as well. Especially for collecting calcs for franchises with a lot of different continuities.

That is probably a good idea, but it preferably has to be handled via an unrelated future revision project, as this one is considerably more urgent and important.

 

[Nehz_XZX]

Yeah, this is alright for me.

 

[LordGriffin1000]

Yeah, I've stopped doing this when I realized the blogs shouldn't have all those categories. I'll try and update those I come across.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you for helping out.

Perhaps the members who volunteer to help out here would be willing to gradually browse though our "Characters" and various Tier categories in order to find all of the sandboxes and blogs that need to be adjusted in this manner?

I'll give it a look when I can. I'll also go through some of my old character blogs because I'm pretty sure they have this problem as well.

 

[Bobsican]

Will anything be done to categories inherited from templates such as {{9-B}}? Such templates are generally used for WIPs and all, so removing them and banning their usage in blogs and sandboxes may be detrimental for page development

 

[Nullflowerblush]

just bold the tier instead of using the template?

 

[KingTempest]

I'll check it out, but this

Will anything be done to categories inherited from templates such as {{9-B}}? Such templates are generally used for WIPs and all, so removing them and banning their usage in blogs and sandboxes may be detrimental for page development

is a serious concern as well

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

I agree with this as someone who saw the group DM beforehand.

 

[ByAsura]

Seems good.

 

[Antvasima]

Will anything be done to categories inherited from templates such as {{9-B}}? Such templates are generally used for WIPs and all, so removing them and banning their usage in blogs and sandboxes may be detrimental for page development

Categories from templates are also definitely not allowed for sandboxes or blog posts, as they still extremely mess up our organisation. Our members will have to write them as, for example, just 9-B when they are writing their character profile page drafts, and change the used example to {{9-B}} first when they post a page.

 

[Antvasima]

Anyway, I would extremely greatly appreciate if I can get many experienced volunteers for helping out with this project by checking through the following categories, and removing all inappropriate categories from sandboxes and blog posts.

Would any of you be willing to help out with this please? However, help from other staff and experienced regular members is also very welcome.

In order to be able to correct blog posts, the content moderators who apply will receive temporary wiki administrator rights while they are participating, although they will have to promise to be very careful so they do not accidentally cause any harm.

It might also be a good idea to give such temporary rights to thread moderators who help out with this project, but they would have to promise to be even more careful, as they are not used to having the extra, potentially dangerous, tools at their disposal.

Also, please do NOT remove the "Blog posts" category from any blog posts at all, or the "Calculations" category from any blog posts with calculations in them, or specific relevant verse categories from any blog posts with accepted calculations.

 

[KingTempest]

I managed to delete all of mine from there that involved any of those categories. My apologies for being part of the problem

 

[Dereck03]

@Dereck03

Sure i can help but I will only be able to take care of the sandboxes since that's as far as my rights go. Will start to check later.

 

[Crazylatin77]

Already got rid of those from my part. I’m also willing to help with the others

 

[Antvasima]

No problem at all. Thank you for helping out.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you very much for the help. You are awesome.

Are you willing to gradually help with going through the categories that I linked to above to check for blogs and sandboxes with inappropriate categories? If so, I can give you temporary wiki administrator rights if you wish.

 

[Antvasima]

Sure i can help but I will only be able to take care of the sandboxes since that's as far as my rights go. Will start to check later.

Thank you very much for helping out. You are also awesome.

We hope to make you a content moderator after our upcoming staff promotion survey, but it seems inappropriate to suddenly give you temporary admin rights at this moment. My apologies.

There are plenty of sandboxes to correct though.

 

[Antvasima]

Also, perhaps the volunteers with administrator rights should, at leadt initially, only focus on correcting blog posts with these problems, as sandboxes can be edited by all other members as well?

 

[Antvasima]

I'll give it a look when I can. I'll also go through some of my old character blogs because I'm pretty sure they have this problem as well.

My apologies for not responding earlier. Thank you very much to you as well. You are obviously also awesome.

 

[Dereck03]

Nice to hear

but it seems inappropriate to suddenly give you temporary admin rights at this moment. My apologies.

It's not like I'm asking for them either, and it would be unfair since I'm not even part of the staff.

There are plenty of sandboxes to correct though.

Yeah as long as there are more people helping it won't be heavy work, I have already removed a lot of templates and sandbox category so far. Although in 1 hour I will go to sleep since it is 2 am in my country.

 

[Dereck03]

Also, perhaps the volunteers with administrator rights should, at leadt initially, only focus on correcting blog posts with these problems, as sandboxes can be edited by all other members as well?

I think it would be preferable for them to focus on blogs post primarily since that is what they will be given the temporary rights for. Although obviously they can help with sandboxes if they run into them.

 

[Dereck03]

Just in case someone wants to help clean sandboxes, this way you can easily find them. Ahhh, wonderful CTRL+F...

Thank you for being reasonable.

I can give you temporary wiki administrator rights to help you edit blog posts if you wish.

 

[Tllmbrg]

Sure.

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

Didn’t realize the tier templates would link categories into blog posts. I removed them off one of my blogs which had them.

 

[Antvasima]

Sure.

Okay. I will apply your temporary admin rights a bit later then.

What about you, @Crazylatin77 ?

[Antvasima]

Okay. I will give you and Tllmbrg temporary increased user rights then. Thanks again for helping out.

@Tllmbrg @Crazylatin77

I have done so. You can remove inappropriate categories from blog posts now. Just please remember what I said earlier.

Also, please do NOT remove the "Blog posts" category from any blog posts at all, or the "Calculations" category from any blog posts with calculations in them, or specific relevant verse categories from any blog posts with accepted calculations.

 

[Dereck03]

Btw @LordGriffin1000 you have 4 sandboxes locked that cannot be edited, so when you can you have to remove the tier templates and categories.

I went from letter A to Z on the page I linked above and cleaned all the tier templates and categories in the sandboxes I found, about 300 sandboxes or so. I checked again just in case I missed any but it doesn't seem to be. That's all I can do to help.

Also this sandbox is locked and can't edit it, so any admin or Content mod should take care of it.

Yes, and you are still eligible for a content moderator position if you change your mind at some point, Mariogoods, which would give you an easier time with helping out with this revision.

 

[Tllmbrg]

Anyways I cleaned all of tier 11 and 10

 

[Antvasima]

Thanks a lot for all of your help. You are still awesome.

 

[Dereck03]

I've cleaned sandboxes in tier 2, 3 and 4. Tho there are a lot of blogs to clean as well.

I've cleaned all the sandboxes in Tier 5 and 6.

Did we ever write a new text for our Editing Rules page regarding this issue, and if not, would somebody here be willing to write a draft for it please?

 

[Antvasima]

After checking, I could not find such a rule at least.

 

[Antvasima]

Is something like this acceptable for me to add to the Editing Rules page?

"It is not allowed to insert any categories whatsoever into sandboxes and any inappropriate categories into blog posts, as it messes up our wiki's organisation structure to a very extreme degree by spamming our category lists with completely irrelevant additions. It is very appreciated if our staff and experienced members continuously help out with systematically removing all categories from sandbox pages whenever you notice this problem, and if our administrators continuously remove the inappropriate categories from blog posts.

It sounds okay to me.

 

[Agnaa]

I'm not so much of a fan of explaining why the rule was added, and asking staff to deal with rule violations, within the rule itself, but if that's just a matter of taste then whatever.

More substantively, I'd suggest also cautioning against the use of tier templates.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you for the feedback. How about this then?

"It is not allowed to insert any categories whatsoever into sandboxes and any inappropriate categories into blog posts, as it messes up our wiki's organisation structure to a very extreme degree by spamming our category lists with completely irrelevant additions. Tier templates such as <nowiki>{{High 1-A}}</nowiki> should also not be added to any sandboxes or blog posts in this wiki, as they automatically add the corresponding tier categories to the pages they are placed in.

Sandboxes in Tier 7 & 8 cleaned. There are about 10K pages in tier 9 so it will take me a little longer.

 

[Dereck03]

Sandboxes in tier 9 are cleaned up, I hadn't seen that @Tllmbrg had already cleaned up tier 10 and I was looking in vain xD. Well that ends my contribution here since only the blogs are left, anyway there may be users who continue adding tier templates or categories to the sandboxes, if I see any I will remove them.

What would be done if there are people who keep adding categories or tier templates to blogs and/or sandboxes? Give them instructions and if they ignore them then warnings?

We give them instructions, and if they keep adding categories anyway, we have to resort to official staff warnings, and if it is blatantly apparent that they are willfully messing up our wiki structure and ignore us no matter what we do, we are forced to give them temporary blocks.

Same with blogs in Characters by tier.

You're welcome.

I did not remove the Blog post category and I don't think that any of the blogs I've dealt with had the Calculations category. There is one blog where there was a verse category but since only the profile of the user who made the blog linked to it I figured that I should remove that as well.
