This seems like a good compromise.(Or maybe make a "Sound File Addition Thread" in wiki management like the others we have)

This sounds nice. For people to meet the middle.This seems like a good compromise.
Hop likes this idea, yes. But should the clips be recorded by a staff member or wiki regular to begin with? Instead of searching elsewhere for them? We have a better likelihood of quality rips instead of just recording over a YouTube video or something like that. OGG is easy to make too, all of us could easily do it in Audacity. If anyone needs help with that, Hop is familiar.Your input would also be appreciated here.
Youtube videos can get taken down, more susceptible to copyright. Not to mention it'll look godawful for longer quotes.Or better yet, just wrap the quote to a youtube video link
«This thread is for requesting that an .ogg quote sound file is added below a certain character's quote. The proposed sound files must be uploaded to the wiki beforehand.Impress is correct.
So is somebody here willing to write a draft for our upcoming thread for suggesting ogg sound quote file additions, and should we mention this somewhere in our main standard format page or in our editing rules?

Yes. Agreed.The language should be English, otherwise it'll be very hard to monitor.
Thank you for helping out. What do the rest of you think?«This thread is for requesting that an .ogg quote sound file is added below a certain character's quote. The proposed sound files must be uploaded to the wiki beforehand.
Content moderators should preferably subscribe to this thread.»
As for the Standard Format, there should be a separate section explaining quotes as a whole. The sound files could be explained in there as well. Such a section would be better to be located right above or right below the Tabbers and Images section.
Well, the idea we came up with is that only sound quotes that have been evaluated and accepted in a special wiki management forum thread should be allowed to be added.I'm not sure if it's a good idea, we would have to hope that all the sound files are the actual right ones, are of reasonable Quality and don't have copyrighted music playing in the background, there's also the fear of exploitation by trolls and the like with sound files design to cause issues (earrape , high pitch blast sound effects) or sounds designed to distort or hurt speakers and headsets.
I think in the case of stuff like very popular anime that could be ignored, Some catchphrases from famous anime characters don't really hit the same in English and are iconic enough to evaluate without knowledge of the language.The language should be English, otherwise it'll be very hard to monitor.
Well help from other language "experts" will be needed then.I think in the case of stuff like very popular anime that could be ignored, Some catchphrases from famous anime characters don't really hit the same in English and are iconic enough to evaluate without knowledge of the language.
lol anyone can verify these simple ass Cantonese phrases without any knowledge or google translateWell help from other language "experts" will be needed then.
We do not expect all animations or films have official English translations.
For (an obscure) example, "我要打十個!" (I want to fight ten people!) and Saam fan zong. You live, by then, ngo fong gwo nei. (Three. Minutes. If you can leave by then, I let you go.).
I made sort of a prototype in a Sandbox, I think it looks ok.So is somebody willing to write a draft text with rules included for the first post of the new wiki management forum thread?
I updated your draft page:

It seems fine to use now.

This is Staff Only, so I meant only the staff who have been present on the threadSorry for commenting in this thread
It's just that I want to ask a little bit
When you say "everyone"
You mean all members, or staff present in the thread
Because if it's for all members, members who forget that this thread is only for staff will reply to your comments
Sorry for commenting on the staff discussion.
Ogg files work better for fandom, as I've learned in other wikis. They're the more recommended format, though I don't remember why exactly.I've also learned that for adding sound files for quotes on profiles, OGG files aren't the only things that work. MP3 files work just as well, so in the request thread, it should be noted that they don't need to be OGG files
