UDWiki talk:Open Discussion/Administrative Archives

This is all a spin-off of a discussion that's been taking place on A/MR. I was in a bit of a rush, so I didn't thoroughly edit or proof this write-up, and I apologize if I've misstated anything or overlooked something obvious. Anyway, I welcome any constructive feedback or suggestions for how it should be reworked. We've already redone a few things, so I expect more changes will occur.

Also, as a quick note, when I say that this will replace the current system, I am indeed suggesting that we move/rename all of the relevant pages (and in the case of A/M, also break the cases up into individual pages, rather than having them stored by year). I expect that this would be a project that would take several days, if not weeks, so I'd imagine that we'd roll out the new system in phases, that way we never double-up on archives. For instance, A/BP could easily be changed to this system first, then we could move over A/DM and A/RE. A/M and A/PM will doubtless take the most time. All of the old pages would likely remain as redirects until we fix links (assuming we do so at all). —Aichon— 01:12, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Oh dear. I fear no one really cares whether they are consistent or not. Well, I don't. But that doesn't mean I wouldn't be for changes. I'd just prefer someone just do them without asking for approval. Dragons are a bit more fun to watch than rabbling. A ZOMBIE ANT 09:20, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
