Quantum Manipulation: A Broken Relic of Old

[Crabwhale]

We can just do an evaluation thread to check on all pages that have quantum page.

Good idea.

We still need to set up an organisation structure for this project, and then apply it in practice.

Agnaa had some suggestions here:

Yeah I think we'll have to do the ol' manual check by splitting the pages into sections for different people.

Split the whatlinkshere stuff into 5/10 segments, assign them to different people, and people will go through their segments, determining whether it should stay, and if so, what ability it should be changed to, for each page. In cases of ambiguity, try contacting supporters.

Once these have all been altered, the page can be deleted.

Just the typical thing we've done in the past for these sorts of revisions.

Are any of you willing to help out with this as well please?

How would we go about the evaluation thread? What would our exact criteria be?

Also, GarrixianXD is taking a break for at least 3 month in order to focus on his studies, so we likely need more volunteers for this project.

We still seem to need your help here if this project is going to be structured and applied.

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

Not sure what's needed aside from the entire list of pages with it linked from Quantum Manipulation to have it removed. And then to delete the page.

 

[Antvasima]

Yes, but we need to get several volunteers to handle all of the work.

[Crabwhale]

Hmm. It appears the number of pages actually on there is substantially lower than I thought at first. The over 1000 is also accounting for comments on blogs as well as sandboxes and blogs themselves.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. That is good then.

Here is a more accurate list with less than 500 entries:

By the way, this category also needs to be removed from all of the pages where quantum manipulation is removed

[GarrixianXD]

What should be done here now? Have we properly discussed our strategy yet?

University was surprisingly not as bad as I anticipated; considering it's first year, I can just get 4.0 credits and officially enroll into my program before getting into any serious crap. Especially since the content I'm studying is already covered in my years of doing AP in high school. Though, I might be busy next year, who knows XD

I'll try and help out more actively from now on.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you. That is good to hear.

I do not remember exactly what we need to do here, beyond gathering staff volunteers to help remove the quantum manipulation ability and the quantum users category from the following pages, but I may misremember.

Do they need to be reviewed to see if they fit other powers or just cut? If it's the latter, I can finish this on the spot with a simple script.

Yes, they need to be reviewed. That is the whole point of continuing this thread past the initial consensus of "power page bad". There are variations and listings of Quantum Manipulation that would fall under other powers, and would thus need to be edited into something else rather than outright deleted from the pages.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, where no explanations are available for the ability, it should likely simply be removed in lack of better options.
