| ===[[Drunken Dead]]===
| |
|
| |
|
| Founded in October 2005, the Drunken Dead were one of the best known zombie groups in northeast Malton. As with the FotFL, they primarily inhabited Pescodside, but were known to spread havoc in the surrounding suburbs. Known for their "drinking binges" (of death) the DD were the deadliest threat the suburb knew and proved a challenge to local survivors. It was only after the zombie group's number dwindled and the group itself faded from UD (as it was never formally disbanded) that survivors managed to regain control of Pescodside.
| | ==Recent Nominations== |
|
| |
|
| While my stance has always been pro-survivor, I would be remitant in my duties to the UD Wiki if I did not support showcasing the Drunken Dead and their important role in Pescodside's local history, if not that of northeast Malton.
| | ==[[East Becktown Defenders]]== |
| | {{HistoricalVotingRules}} |
| | The East Becktown Defenders officially disbanded on [[EBD/Epitaph|May 1st, 2020]], which makes them eligible for Historical Group status. |
| | The EBD had been active since 2016, and included dozens of members, including both veterans and entire newbies. They maintained good relationships with survivor groups (including, but not limited to the DHPD, SoC, Knights Templar and the DEM) and zombie groups (specifically the Daubeney Resident Zombies next door, and of course our favourite frenemies in the RRF). |
| | Aside from regular survivor-style operations, they also brought a fun, no-pressure approach to the game, along with [[East_Becktown_Defenders/Tools|wiki-tools]] (like the automatic SitRep on their group page) and weird events (like the [[EBD_Stat_Party_2016|EBD StatParty]]). |
| | The group decided not to fade away like many others, but officially disbanded after exactly 4 years of activity. |

| |
| This group is listed as historical yet one of the Adeptus Sororitas sited several members including this [http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=57172 one] sporting the Malton DEA as their group.

| ===[[Blackmore Bastard Brigade]]===
| |
| According to the [http://www.urbandead.com/stats.html stats page], they still have 27 active members. They've also been actively holding [[The Blackmore Building]] off and on for a few months now. I think their historical status should be removed and the leaders of the group update their wiki. --{{User:Benigno/sig}} 21:43, 23 July 2007 (BST)

| ===Historical Group Is Back===
| |
| The [[Ministry of the Dead]] -- which in character I will deny ever existed -- has reformed.

| |
| :::a disambiguation page is the solution for your problem. At the top of the historical group, we add a <nowiki>{{redirec|Ministry of the Dead}}</nowiki> template, and this new group then uses [[Ministry of the Dead (2007)]] or [[Ministry of the Dead (new)]] or [[Ministry of the Dead (reloaded)]]... you get it... it will be on another page. --{{User:Hagnat/sig}} 20:31, 26 June 2007 (BST)

| ===Paradox also back===
| |
| [[Paradox]] is also back. Anyone who's seen the Stats page knows that. There should really be a clear-cut procedure for un-historifying groups. --[[User:Anonymous4401|Anonymous4401]] 18:40, 22 July 2007 (BST)

| :Yep. Doesn't seem like you need a process so much as an attentive wiki mod.--[[User:Insomniac By Choice|Insomniac By Choice]] 06:43, 23 July 2007 (BST)
| |
| ::Well the thing is, unless there is a clear edit history between the members who are returning, and the old wiki page, I don't think the old page should be re-opened for editing. Otherwise some whole new group of players can come in and take over a historical group page. I think that Hagnats idea is best, a similarly named, but new group page that can be linked in a disamig type of way from the original page... how about [[The Paradox]] or similar? -- [[User:Boxy|boxy]] <sup>[[User_talk:boxy|T]] [[Location Nuts|Nuts]] [http://iwitness.urbandead.info/locationBlock/location.php block it!] [[Dead Animals/Redux|DA]]</sup> 12:48, 28 July 2007 (BST)
| |
| :::Fine. We will make a new wiki page, pending being allowed to take back our old one. I understand that you must be convinced that we are in fact the original Paradox for this to happen. There is a thread in the public area of our forum that I think you should look at: [http://z13.invisionfree.com/Paradox_Central/index.php?showtopic=1306 here] The Gonzo (member no.1) and Underhand (member no.2), who is me (for proof that I am me, see [http://z13.invisionfree.com/Paradox_Central/index.php?showtopic=1345 this thread]), among others, insist that Paradox is back again. Note that the forum is the same one that is linked to on the locked [[Paradox]] page, and note also that the two mentioned users registered there in August 2005, as did two other users in the first thread linked to. Those of our members who used to edit our wiki page no longer play Urban Dead. Just in case it's necessary, I also ask you to look at the game's [http://urbandead.com/stats.html stats page], which at time of writing says that Paradox has 110 known members.

| ===The Stats Page===
| |
| Just how useful is it as an indicator of groups "no longer actively [contributing] to the game"? Can we get a bit of consistency here? There's a group up for historical status that the nominator himself admits, in the nomination, still have enough members to feature on the stats page. What's the ruling going to be from now on? Ignore the stats page as long as the group leadership is no longer organising stuff? If they say they're finished? Or just if they're popular enough? As it is, it's just being used as an excuse to pull nominations that are borderline, by those that disagree with result -- [[User:Boxy|boxy]] <sup>[[User_talk:boxy|T]] [[User:Boxy/Locations|L]] [[Zombie Squad|ZS]] [[Location Nuts|Nuts2U]] [[Dead Animals/Redux|DA]]</sup> 09:55, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
| |
| :Ending declarative statements with a question mark makes my brain hurt? Other than that, I'm all for un protecting/categorizing Shacknews, On Strike, Mall Tour '06 and whoever else, allowing those folks who like to cling to their identities to maintain a voice on the wiki. --{{User:Max Grivas/sig}} 11:14, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
| |
| ::Well, the thing is, that it's pretty obvious that some of those should be historical. Mall Tour '06 is out of date, there is a Mall Tour '07 now, and who's going to start up an 06 group again? On Strike was for the big zombie strike, and that history should be protected, and further strikes have their own pages (or disambig). But nominating groups who weren't time specific, and continue to have members show up on the stats page? How do we get some consistency in which historical bids can be struck down? -- [[User:Boxy|boxy]] <sup>[[User_talk:boxy|T]] [[User:Boxy/Locations|L]] [[Zombie Squad|ZS]] [[Location Nuts|Nuts2U]] [[Dead Animals/Redux|DA]]</sup> 04:17, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
| |
| :::I'd rather have this: If the leadership declares his group dead, it's dead even if people still show up on the stats page. If no one on the leadership or membership shows up and there's a bid, the stats page info would have to be conclusive in judging if a group is still active or not (in this case, the SD of the Randallbank Coalition was wrongfully filed as it was still present on the stats page). In the special case that a group is in line with an event more than an organization (as the Strike, Mall Tours, Big Bash and BBB), confirmation that the event is over should be enough to declare said group inactive. --{{User:Matthewfarenheit/Signature}} 20:09, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
| |
| ::::Well I think that is a group is on the stats page then they should not be allowed historical status unless there has been a notice on the wiki for a certain time frame. That would be my opinion. {{User:Pillsy/Sig}} 14:27, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
| |
| :::::I don't have too much of a problem with what Matt says about "event groups", though I also like the idea of Mall Tour '06 still running around, maybe with a new motive to show Mall Tour '07 how it's done "old school." Retros vs the Trendies. Silly, but the whole packaging of "mall tour" itself is silly.
| |
| :::::I'm not entirely sure how much I support "when the leader says its done, it's done." Makes groups sound like they're basically the vanity project of their leadership, which is true in a lot of cases. However, if people are identifying as something, they're that group, whether the leader dissociated him or herself from the group or not. A (temporarily) leaderless group does makes matters more confusing, since leaders generally exercise or delegate editorial control of their wiki pages, but the wiki supports the game, not vice versa.
| |
| :::::As I'm more invested in "role playing" Malton than the "scoreboard" keeping that seems to motivate most wiki editors, I'll add something more from my interest. Take this hypothetical case: There are a lot of groups with "real world" analogues. SAS, 101st Airborn, Mossad, etc. Now if a leader quits, and it's member does follow suit, it's possible for the group to be "historical." Let's say Mossad goes defunct, but did manage to somehow create a Jewish neighborhood in Malton, and got the historical status for that and general badassery. Say another player is really keen on Mossad, either because of a personal interest in the RL Mossad or an appreciation of the accomplishments of the game group. Can he not revive the group because it was "historicized?"
| |
| :::::I've been against Crit 12 as is. It just seems to be a way for deletionists to find happiness through fixing a "clutter problem" that doesn't really exists. Any group or entity with more than two months activity in game, and has wiki content reflecting said engagement should be "historical" and read as a reflection of the myriad ways the game can be played. As is, I think editors are thinking of "historical" as some sort of "hall of fame" category reserved for groups who did well in a narrow "scoreboard" interpretation of the game and those who invented novel ways of PKing and Griefing.--[[User:The Envoy|The Envoy]] 17:57, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
| |
| ::::::Well said, Envoy. The clutter is not physical (well, unless a literalist wants to take it down to the DASD level), and unless someone can point out how it otherwise griefs, I don't see an issue. The "hall of fame" notion is probably what a lot of voters are really looking for, or at least voting under--not so much that they worry about clutter, but more an indication of an interest in protecting group pages of groups significant to them. --[[User:Barbecue Barbecue|Barbecue Barbecue]] 02:46, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

So...how'd they get historical? --[[User:Saromu|Sir Sonny Corleone]] <sup>[[ The Ridleybank Resistance Front|RRF]] [[ The Caiger Resistance Front|CRF]] [[ DORIS]] [[Witch Burners|Hunt!]]</sup> 14:24, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

| ::Their level of communication in-game was astounding, second only to IZONE. My older journal logs show a typical encounter with them. I'm quite surprised so many older players never ran into them, they had quite a field of experience. They were one of the early terror-spreaders of infant-[[PK]]ing. I wish a few of their members were on the wiki to speak up about it. --[[User:MorthBabid|MorthBabid]] 23:32, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

| Not sure if this is the right place but, Paradox have 31 members on the stats page. That doesn't seem very "not active" to me. And as not being active is a requirement to be listed in historical groups shouldn't they then be removed from historical until the time they go inactive again.

| I'd like a re-evaluation on their historical status. They were never important or big, in fact the only reason why they got this status was because before voting on status all you had to do was put up the Category on your page and you were historical. When we switched over to voting no one wanted to remove old historical groups so they stayed. The ICB should have been called Iron Cross Brother because there was only one member. The guy made the page, claimed Fort Creedy as his, and almost went into a PK war with the CDF because he was too stupid to realize others were there first. Then that dude buggered off and someone else wanted to make a group with the same exact name, so he created the New ICB which also only consisted of himself. The group is not historical and should be removed. --[[User:Saromu|Sonny Corleone]] <sup>[[DORIS]] [[MSD]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91a8pHj7V9k pr0n]</sup> 00:28, 10 June 2008 (BST)
