I said I was just curious...Galaxian Pyron said Ant... why ask it here?
I suppose that might be an idea. What do you think AKM?Why not simply make the popular vote worth one staff vote, with a minimum of two to pass?
This prevents low-quality revisions from being passed, still gives the staff almost complete control, but doesn't completely nullify regular users either. Obviously give some grace for new votes to be gathered.
It already basically works this way with "uncontroversial" revisions.
It would give a minor representation in more controversial ones.
The context is the discussion which happened right before this in this same thread.For context on what FinePoint is asking this about, I believe this is the thread.
The thread suggests allowing a game's godmode gamemode be approved for scaling.
Could you be more specific? Which staff positions are worth something? Which aren't? Is it really wise to give the community which drives 90% of CRTs no power at all, as opposed to just a little bit? Is there any tie-breaking mechanic implemented for when more staff members don't care or aren't knowledgeable enough? Some verses are both complicated and obscure.That would only apply to cases where there is an even split regarding what to do and I prefer those cases be handled with more care on a case by case basis. The best way to handle those cases is call out for more neutral staff members to take a look.
I really hate that my specific thread was even brought up. I was continuing the conversation here, not trying to lobby for my temporary benefit. I genuinely think that some regular user representation is good for the entire wiki. Though, thanks anyways. I can try to find more people for it.From what I can see in that particular thread, 1 admin and 2 thread mods disagreeing while only 1 admin agreeing tip the scales in favor of the disagreeing party, because not all staff positions are created to evaluate threads. But it looks close to me and I'd suggest getting more opinions either way.
Maybe you are right since the wiki's profiles still need cleanup. Here is some problems:I think that we have some categories for that sort of thing, but they are not really necessary, especially if mass-editing in these areas is initiated when the time and energy would be better spent on other wiki projects.
Okay, if it serves its purpose well enough, then it can stay as it is but if the relevant pages that are explained happen to change even more in the future, then this might need to be done eventually.As long as the explanation is good enough to understand, it can probably remain as it is. I also do not have the time and energy to properly replace all of the screencaptures at this time.
Okay, it's good to avoid even more work in that case.I suppose so, yes, but I am very overworked, so it is hard to fit into my schedule.
Yeah, that's what I had in mind as well.Yes, unless it is necessary at least.
Just to give some input, it is my opinion that we need less categories, not more- there's tons of the things that generally only clutter a page and obfuscate the actually important ones.I suggest for adding the category [[Category:Shrine Maidens]] (or alternatively [[Category:Miko]]) as an occupation. There are several characters fitting the definition, but I have not decided the best name for this category.
What sort of categories would you remove then?Just to give some input, it is my opinion that we need less categories, not more- there's tons of the things that generally only clutter a page and obfuscate the actually important ones.
I mean categories no matter how much can't really do that considering they're in the bottom and need to be actively open now soJust to give some input, it is my opinion that we need less categories, not more- there's tons of the things that generally only clutter a page and obfuscate the actually important ones.
That sounds like a lot of work if we were to implement that. How long would we be occupied with that?I mean categories no matter how much can't really do that considering they're in the bottom and need to be actively open now so
I would say there're better categories to add, mainly sub tier categories which I think we really should have as it'd make match finding for those who care for that much easier
Categories absolutely can though? If we have a thousand categories and 750 of them contribute zilch to a page, that makes it less likely for the average user to go into a category that will help them on this wiki.I mean categories no matter how much can't really do that considering they're in the bottom and need to be actively open now so

I mean, most of the times nobody just goig directly to categories but instead just searches through an entire one to find matches.Categories absolutely can though?

I'll at least agree sub categories take a priorty category making wise so until we get that I won't push for profession onesI agree, actually, about sub-tier categories. I think that would be actually useful. But then we have things like a character's profession, which is marginally less useful.
I guess you're right; well, I have another suggestion.No. It would be a tremendously time-consuming project for virtually no relevant gain whatsoever.
While I'm not sure how much of a purpose this would have this would sort of fit with how we define Large Size Type 0 using the tallest known human in history.I guess you're right; well, I have another suggestion.
I think there should be revisions and additions to the Small Size page. Because for one, I recently discovered that the starting height for dwarfism is 1.47 meters (4ft 10in). So, I think the type 0 level should look like this:
Type 0 (Dwarf): Characters far smaller than an ordinary human. The size for this level begins at 1.47 meters tall.
That's the idea, but there are other characters on the wiki that are taller than a meter and yet shorter than 1.47 meters. I think 1 meter is pretty circumscribing for Type 0.While I'm not sure how much of a purpose this would have this would sort of fit with how we define Large Size Type 0 using the tallest know human in history.
Okay.That's kinda the idea, but there are other characters on the wiki that are taller than a meter and yet shorter than 1.47 meters. I kinda feel like 1 meter is pretty limiting for Type 0.
