Linking to Discord images is forbidden in our wiki

[Antvasima]

Those are likely too small sites to be reliable to not shut down in the long run.

Comicvine image links also seem to disappear quite easily btw. So that should preferably also be avoided.

Most comicvine pages are gone, imgur and the site is definitely the best bet. I'm sepaking from experience too

 

[Antvasima]

Yes, agreed.

Something I forgot to mention is that discord images got massively downgraded, for images sent in a batch, you can no longer open the file, and hence it's stuck with the low quality version.

Question: Wikipedia has a spam blacklist that prevents editors from saving edits with specific links in them. Does Fandom have a similar function we could use to block forbidden links?

@Agnaa

Your help would be appreciated here.

I currently have 13 threads in my "to-evaluate" backlog, I've added this to the list, and will get to it eventually.

Yes. I can use such a filter, but it makes it impossible to otherwise edit all VSBW pages with Discord links in them, so it would be preferable if we replace all of the current Discord image links before I apply it.

This is secondary to our currrent more urgen Gfycat revision, but I would appreciate help with this afterwards.

Can somebody remind me of this after we have finished with replacing all of the Discord and Gfycat links please?

Thanks a lot for helping out. You are both awesome.

Looking from it, the only remaining ones are sandboxes, although it should not be concerning.

There are many profile wall comments which can only be edited by administrators.

I think this project is done.

Also, reminder:

[Antvasima]

I have already added Discord images to our forbidden wiki links filter.

Then this thread can be closed.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. I will do so.
