:Whoever came up with the idea of creating unlinked pages as a part of an archival system needs to be shot. Unfortunately, redoing the A/PM archives in the style of the [[UDWiki:Administration/Misconduct/Archive|A/M archives]] and [[UDWiki:Administration/Re-Evaluations/Archive|A/RE archives]] makes no sense since there are so many more users in it than there are in the other two. If anything, I'm more inclined to simply delete all of those sorts of archive pages and then move the "(1)" entries into their places, since that's in keeping with the wiki software's own behavior (e.g. it doesn't add numbers until after the first one if you have multiple headings with the same name), as well as what is standard practice with the other wiki archives we have. Thoughts? I suspect boxy may disagree. ;) {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 20:50, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
::I like the consistency of having each one have a number if there are more than one, although that does mean moving everyone's first candidacy to a _(1) once they've got a _(2). (We could just start everyone off with Username_(1), although that would be a bunch of move work now to save some later.) I don't see the reason for maintaining the list of all of a user's candidacies at their base page, though, since they're all listed (and ctrl+F'able) in the templates at [[:Category:Promotions Candidacies]], and no one has more than 5 total candidacies, which are listed in the alphabetical list at the bottom of that page anyway. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 01:15, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

A fun history lesson: There never used to be A/PM/Archive/User:XXXX (1) pages. It was User:XXXX for their first promotion, and User:XXXX (2) for their second, and so on. Then sometime in maybe 2010 Boxy just decided to change them all, rearrange the system and make User:XXXX portals to all their promotion bids. No one really made a fuss. I like boxy but I always thought it was a bit of a dumb idea and the other system is just simpler to manage. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/a}} 05:44, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

:I might be in favor of just reverting back to the pre-Boxy system, with the first promotion at User:XXXX and the second and beyond gaining numbers. But I do think we should have a consistent system, since a non-consistent or individualized one would make the subdirectories by user ''more'' necessary in order to find any given promotion. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 18:12, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
::As mentioned above I prefered the pre-boxy system. I can't decide whether it was 'better' or whether it was my 'don't fix what ain't broke' principles seeping through.

{{grr}} I want to organise the admin election type archives a bit, so that we can have a single page for each sysop that automatically includes (via templating) the list page (at UDWiki:Administration/Promotions/XXXX ), and have a similar system for A/BP and A/RE. Regardless, I think the way it is set up now is easier to navigate (than through the archive system... my god!), because you would just have to go to the UDWiki:Administration/Promotions/xxxx page to find out which number you were up to, to find where you have to put the latest archive for [[UDWiki:Administration/Promotions/Axe_Hack|Axe]], for example, rather than having to trawl through all the successful, unsuccessful, unaccepted and withdrawn promotions in the category. A link to the individual sysop page can go in the promotions template (and would show up as a red link for newbies) <small>-- [[User:Boxy|boxy]] 22:29, 22 January 2013 (BST)</small>
:No need to count all of them on all of those pages. Just go to the [[Category:Promotions_Candidacies|complete listing]] that's linked from A/PM, hit Ctrl+F, and search for their name. You'll know how many times it appears instantly. But your idea got me thinking a bit. Rather than just doing some basic templating (which, honestly, I'm either imagining incorrectly or am having a hard time seeing the benefit of), why not combine the archives of A/PM, A/RE, A/DM, A/M, and A/BP? It'd essentially be a page with the names of everyone involved in any of those, each of whom would have an individual page that would act kinda like what we see for A/M archives, i.e. as a timeline of events over their career with the wiki. By unifying the archives, it'd make maintenance a LOAD easier (everyone gets a page the first time, and after that we just add one more page per administrative action they're involved in), though I'll admit that it'd take some work to get it all set up right, and we'd want to mock it up in advance to make sure it's feasible in the first place. I might just see if I can mock up a few quest tests... {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 23:27, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
::Someone is going to be busy for a while. {{:p}} I'm trying to picture this omniarchive and my brain just hurts. Archiving misconduct isnalready kind of a pain in the ass.

Administration Services

Sysop List (Check) | Guidelines | Policies (Discussion) | Promotions (Bureaucrat) | Re-Evaluations

Deletions (Scheduling) | Speedy Deletions | Undeletions | Vandal Banning (Bots) | Vandal Data (De-Escalations)

Protections (Scheduling) | Move Requests | Arbitration | Misconduct | Demotions | Discussion | Sysop Archives

This page is for the requesting of page moves by normal users. The average user's ability to move pages has been rescinded due to frequent abuse by vandals; as such, users will need to submit requests (similar in nature to those on Speedy Deletions and Protections) for pages to be moved by a sysop.

Guidelines for requesting a Page Move

Copy the template below (Or just type it), replace the text in red with the relevant details, and paste the template under the Move Request Queue heading. A day after a sysop has taken action on the request, move requests should be moved to the Archive.
