Say what you want about the current sysops, but this era has seen the least amount of uncategorized images, uncategorized pages, and unused files. The disambiguation links were fixed and many of the merged locations have been fixed. If we could come up with a way to deal with orphaned pages (other than linking the few that shouldn't be orphans in the first place) I have a feeling those would be under control, too. | Say what you want about the current sysops, but this era has seen the least amount of uncategorized images, uncategorized pages, and unused files.

My only wish is for them to come out into the lime light a little more. It seems to me like there is so much being done, between moderating discussions on policies, maintaining pages (i.e, A/SD, A/D, ect.), Vandalism Cases, Moderation, and Arbitration that they don't always get as much credit as they deserve. I think it would be cool to thank them in some way, perhaps by having a <nowiki>[single]</nowiki> page logging all changes made by moderators. It could be organized by moderator, with a list of their changes beneath them, that way the community would know exactly how much they do,.... instead of <b>[[Template:Revolution|Bitching]]</b> like <b>[[User:Imthatguy|some people]]</b> do. --[[User:Poodle of doom|Poodle of doom]] 20:54, 20 July 2009 (BST) | ||
:well, thank you for the comment. I know it is supposed to be a janitorial job and you shouldn't expect gratitude for it. I personally keep a [[User:Nubis/WikiMe|page]] (for myself) of what I have done on here. It would be nice if the other sysops did something like that too so that if I get bored with what I am working on I can help them out. --{{User:Nubis/sig}} 21:04, 20 July 2009 (BST) | |||
::It would be nice if every moderator had something like this. Like I said, you guys are never thanked enough for what you really do. And in most cases, your decisions are overly just (always giving people the benifit of the doubt, always fair for all). It would be nice to have something like this update automatically when a moderator makes a change. -[[User:Poodle of doom|Poodle of doom]] 22:18, 20 July 2009 (BST) | |||

::::No it shouldn't. As much as I hate to trot out this line (mainly because I have to do it so often), sysops are not moderators. ''People in general'' shouldn't be overly gratituitous dicks, but apart from their conduct in official matters (which should definitely be civil) there is nothing that separates sysops from regular users in terms of behaviour requirements. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 14:34, 12 August 2009 (BST) | |||

What a lot of sops do, is have their own personal projects. Nubis' are above, I'm slightly obsessed with the ''other'' cities. Swiers had Iwitness, the list goes on. Would people like a list of areas on the wiki that need improvements? We need images of a something message in game, search rates in clubs data, that kind of thing? --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 21:19, 20 July 2009 (BST) | |||
:You mean something listing stubs, and things that are a little outdated? That would be nice if the moderators could set something up like that. It could operate similarly to the Recent Changes, where it will show things that haven't been updated in [X] Number of Days, the point of which would be to have the community activly involved in keeping the wiki up to date. That said, if you are talking like things that need to be deleted, or changed,... thats what the Speedy Deletions, and Wiki Talk sections are for. -[[User:Poodle of doom|Poodle of doom]] 22:20, 20 July 2009 (BST) | |||

::::::::::It switched around a bit: First it was Kevan who promoted a couple of people (Spiro, Katthew, Morlock, Daranz, LibrarianBrent, 'STER and Odd Starter), this all happened in late 2005. Odd Starter got made a bureaucrat in early 2006 and set up the promotions page. He promoted a couple of people (Zaruthustra, Novelty) until the Amazing saga which got him being demoted. | |||

The one thing I've been meaning to look into for ages has been the absolutely insane number of [[Special:DoubleRedirects|double redirects]] (and there's a good reason I've only been meaning to do it for so long). Apart from that I don't see anything hugely in need of work, but I suck at spotting things that don't show up on any of the Special: pages. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 15:46, 12 August 2009 (BST) | |||
:I wouldn't do any of those, they seem to want to double redirect to a merged locations page, which needs unmerging anyways. So the coordinates are fine, the locations should be locations and merged locations should be unmerged and deleted. --{{User:A Helpful Little Gnome/Sig}} 16:10, 12 August 2009 (BST) | |||

:From what I've noticed, the biggest problem on the wiki is outdated-ness. There still are articles that cite obsolite information, a few buildings with incomplete search rates, etc. On top of that all, resources that require regular upkeep, like the [[Building Information Center]] and to a lesser extent [[Necrowatch]], are severly out of date, with only a few contributors. Fixing this, of course, would require a fairly large outreach on the community (I still think there should be a reminder on the front page to help update the BIC).--{{:User:Red Hawk One/sig}} 02:17, 13 August 2009 (BST) | |||
I've been meaning to update [[UDWiki:Job Queue]] for a while, so it can actually serve as a passage for users to keep the entire wiki clean and updated, ie. administration, housecleaning, categorising, suburb archival, closing votes on time, etc. I think if we could find a page that acted as the complete housecleaning portal for the most active of wikizens, we could have a lot of help with those a) annoying projects Ross mentioned above and b) the regular periodic maintenance that any user can do, but are still only done by Sysops anyway. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|LightSkyBlue}}-- 05:54, 13 August 2009 (BST) | |||
:Yeah, good point. I remember Ross creating a page of "general maintenance stuff" a while ago - the stuff that pretty much always needs doing, such as categorizations, etc. A job queue revival sounds like a good idea, along with a short-term projects page that has just that on it (short-term projects.) {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 05:59, 13 August 2009 (BST) | |||
::I'm happy to work with this further on the Job Queue talk page- we'll need to categorise stuff that has dynamic timeframes, such as deletion votes, promotion candidacies, suggestions votings, stuff like that, and see how we can implement them into a list on the queue. Just general stuff. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|LightSkyBlue}}-- 06:30, 13 August 2009 (BST) | |||

As a matter of fact, with your latest little whining against the OVERPOWERFUL SYSOP THIRD REICH and making demotion a fucking HUG BOX popularity vote the sysops are going to need something like this to actually show you little asshats that they do more than piss you off by saying you can't fucking have your porn on here and just because someone makes a newbie mistake doesn't mean they have to be permed.

Current Wiki Status
Say what you want about the current sysops, but this era has seen the least amount of uncategorized images, uncategorized pages, and unused files. The disambiguation links were fixed and many of the merged locations have been fixed. If we could come up with a way to deal with orphaned pages (other than linking the few that shouldn't be orphans in the first place) I have a feeling those would be under control, too.
Other Sysop Functions
Other than bitching about A/VB, A/D, A/SD, and A/M is there any other area that needs to be worked on? I'm curious about what other janitorial tasks that everyone feels needs to be done.
My Thoughts
Personally,.... I think that many of the moderators do an excellent job. My only wish is for them to come out into the lime light a little more. It seems to me like there is so much being done, between moderating discussions on policies, maintaining pages (i.e, A/SD, A/D, ect.), Vandalism Cases, Moderation, and Arbitration that they don't always get as much credit as they deserve. I think it would be cool to thank them in some way, perhaps by having a [single] page logging all changes made by moderators. It could be organized by moderator, with a list of their changes beneath them, that way the community would know exactly how much they do,.... instead of Bitching like some people do. --Poodle of doom 20:54, 20 July 2009 (BST)
- well, thank you for the comment. I know it is supposed to be a janitorial job and you shouldn't expect gratitude for it. I personally keep a page (for myself) of what I have done on here. It would be nice if the other sysops did something like that too so that if I get bored with what I am working on I can help them out. --– Nubis NWO 21:04, 20 July 2009 (BST)
- It would be nice if every moderator had something like this. Like I said, you guys are never thanked enough for what you really do. And in most cases, your decisions are overly just (always giving people the benifit of the doubt, always fair for all). It would be nice to have something like this update automatically when a moderator makes a change. -Poodle of doom 22:18, 20 July 2009 (BST)
- "Don't be a dick" that should be a rule --DOWN WITH THE 'CRATS!!! | Join Nod!!! 16:17, 11 August 2009 (BST)
- No it shouldn't. As much as I hate to trot out this line (mainly because I have to do it so often), sysops are not moderators. People in general shouldn't be overly gratituitous dicks, but apart from their conduct in official matters (which should definitely be civil) there is nothing that separates sysops from regular users in terms of behaviour requirements.

Being More ProActive
What a lot of sops do, is have their own personal projects. Nubis' are above, I'm slightly obsessed with the other cities. Swiers had Iwitness, the list goes on. Would people like a list of areas on the wiki that need improvements? We need images of a something message in game, search rates in clubs data, that kind of thing? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:19, 20 July 2009 (BST)
- You mean something listing stubs, and things that are a little outdated? That would be nice if the moderators could set something up like that. It could operate similarly to the Recent Changes, where it will show things that haven't been updated in [X] Number of Days, the point of which would be to have the community activly involved in keeping the wiki up to date. That said, if you are talking like things that need to be deleted, or changed,... thats what the Speedy Deletions, and Wiki Talk sections are for. -Poodle of doom 22:20, 20 July 2009 (BST)
- I think she means things like - This is a new skill - what does the in-game message read for it? Or this is a new item - where are you finding it the most? All of these would be quite helpful actually. Not to mention, I love your work on the locations images, Rossie. That was a great idea.

- Wa?--Thadeous Oakley 13:24, 12 August 2009 (BST)
- Read this. Also Katthew was a sysop briefly in the very early days of the wiki (she was one of the original lot IIRC but Kevan demoted her). Cyberbob Talk 13:28, 12 August 2009 (BST)
- Ah transsexualism, and I always thought Nubis represented an all new form of sex besides man/woman...And Kevan actually meddling in wiki affairs? Man, that must have been the wiki prehistory.--Thadeous Oakley 13:40, 12 August 2009 (BST)
- Actually Kevan was more or less the main player in promotions until the bureaucrat system was really implemented, which happened in late-ish 2006 when Vista and Xoid were given the job. Cyberbob Talk 13:48, 12 August 2009 (BST)
- It switched around a bit: First it was Kevan who promoted a couple of people (Spiro, Katthew, Morlock, Daranz, LibrarianBrent, 'STER and Odd Starter), this all happened in late 2005. Odd Starter got made a bureaucrat in early 2006 and set up the promotions page. He promoted a couple of people (Zaruthustra, Novelty) until the Amazing saga which got him being demoted.
- Kevan then ran the system (he promoted several of the old hands, including me, Hagnat, Grim, Conndraka, Nubis, Xoid, Cyberbob and Jedaz and a couple of other people who are no longer active). After that we set up the current bureaucrat promotions system which we have today. Anyway, that's the end of this history lesson :P.--The General T Sys U! P! F! 12:52, 14 August 2009 (BST)

- J3D had 2 Cool, ALiM, great fire, the list goes on! Problem was the pages were so awesome the wiki self combusted on a fateful day known as 2/10/08 (or 10/2/08 for your crazy americans) when the pure awesanity of ALiMs birthday caused the wiki to crash for 7 hours. --xoxo 08:23, 12 August 2009 (BST)
The one thing I've been meaning to look into for ages has been the absolutely insane number of double redirects (and there's a good reason I've only been meaning to do it for so long). Apart from that I don't see anything hugely in need of work, but I suck at spotting things that don't show up on any of the Special: pages. Cyberbob Talk 15:46, 12 August 2009 (BST)
- I wouldn't do any of those, they seem to want to double redirect to a merged locations page, which needs unmerging anyways. So the coordinates are fine, the locations should be locations and merged locations should be unmerged and deleted. -- AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 16:10, 12 August 2009 (BST)
- From what I've noticed, the biggest problem on the wiki is outdated-ness. There still are articles that cite obsolite information, a few buildings with incomplete search rates, etc. On top of that all, resources that require regular upkeep, like the Building Information Center and to a lesser extent Necrowatch, are severly out of date, with only a few contributors. Fixing this, of course, would require a fairly large outreach on the community (I still think there should be a reminder on the front page to help update the BIC).--~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 02:17, 13 August 2009 (BST)
I've been meaning to update UDWiki:Job Queue for a while, so it can actually serve as a passage for users to keep the entire wiki clean and updated, ie. administration, housecleaning, categorising, suburb archival, closing votes on time, etc. I think if we could find a page that acted as the complete housecleaning portal for the most active of wikizens, we could have a lot of help with those a) annoying projects Ross mentioned above and b) the regular periodic maintenance that any user can do, but are still only done by Sysops anyway. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 05:54, 13 August 2009 (BST)
- Yeah, good point. I remember Ross creating a page of "general maintenance stuff" a while ago - the stuff that pretty much always needs doing, such as categorizations, etc. A job queue revival sounds like a good idea, along with a short-term projects page that has just that on it (short-term projects.) Linkthewindow Talk 05:59, 13 August 2009 (BST)
- I'm happy to work with this further on the Job Queue talk page- we'll need to categorise stuff that has dynamic timeframes, such as deletion votes, promotion candidacies, suggestions votings, stuff like that, and see how we can implement them into a list on the queue. Just general stuff. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 06:30, 13 August 2009 (BST)

- Rather than rather than laughing about "hero cookies" as though literally everything any sysop does to try and improve things is a popularity grab and nothing else, shouldn't you be genuinely happy that (for whatever reason, whether it be something you've done or not) an attempt is being made to make the wiki better and to get some discussion going on how to do so? I'm not having a go, I just would've thought that you would be happy about something like this rather than leery. Cyberbob Talk 14:00, 12 August 2009 (BST)

Wan suck MY dick
Nubis and the crew do a lot of fucking work on this shit hole little wiki that they don't shove down your throats like J3D's LOOK AT ME ATTENTION WHORE CREW and the other shitheads that have signatures longer than their names to showcase their pissant little RP fag circle jerks. They do the grunt work because it needs to be fucking done and you self righteous little prigs sure as hell aren't lifting a gods damned finger to improve this place. As a matter of fact, with your latest little whining against the OVERPOWERFUL SYSOP THIRD REICH and making demotion a fucking HUG BOX popularity vote the sysops are going to need something like this to actually show you little asshats that they do more than piss you off by saying you can't fucking have your porn on here and just because someone makes a newbie mistake doesn't mean they have to be permed. Now why don't you take your little butt hurt self and go piss off to where ever the fuck Iscariot is hiding these days?- #99 DCC 17:04, 12 August 2009 (BST)

- It does make your words easier to read and prettier to the eye. And while it won't make a huge difference, it will make your point easier to get across. And the fact whether people read it or not in the first place is partly decided by how you present your text. This works this way in any letter-based discussion. Text-composing is an important skill to master in life, DCC. For example, I highly doubt you write job application letters in the same manner you did above. --Thadeous Oakley 22:24, 12 August 2009 (BST)

- Age of the sysopship isn't the issue. There are plenty of policy changes that happen all the time. And with the wiki lawyers and red tape it isn't like they can go rogue with power. Even when something needs to be done about a problem getting it fixed is an ordeal and a half. And with the number of sysops that have tried to come up with more workable ways to distribute the power and balance the system it isn't like the old guard is circling the wagons.
- The problem is there is no moderation which is what the wiki really needs. Crats really need to have a moderation power since they are the ones actually 100% voted in by the community. Yet they don't have any extra authority at all. What's the point? This never made sense to me because if some Crat is abusing their power you can A/M them and then vote them out. Now with that new "policy" the sysops don't get any extra authority yet can still be removed. Where is the balance in that? --– Nubis NWO 14:11, 14 August 2009 (BST)

DCC and everyone have a history of not getting along, but sometimes he makes a good point (in the midst of the profanity and homo-erotic references). He has decreased the amount of times he calls people Fags finally. DCC has also actually made good contributions to this wiki in the past so I can understand his frustration. Which is sad that the whole Dead shit storm made people forget them. --– Nubis NWO 14:18, 14 August 2009 (BST)
- I dunno if he started on the wiki with the dead stuff, but that was the first time i came across him. And as they say, you never get a second chance to make a first impression.--xoxo 14:39, 14 August 2009 (BST)
- DCC actually wrote a bunch of "history" sections on locations. Admittedly, a lot of it was sarcastic making Dunell Hills seem like a ghetto, but it was clever. (it was also a way to get the needed 250 edits to get rid of a vandal case)
- This is the kind of edit that makes me hate this wiki. [1] Why delete the content that was there for stupid group propaganda? --– Nubis NWO 20:46, 14 August 2009 (BST)

- Fair enough. The answer to the above was that DCC doesn't necessarily love the sysops at all- of course, he may, but my guess is that it's just a matter of who he hates least- ops or Wan. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 12:34, 14 August 2009 (BST)
- how about you answer my question near the bottom of the header above this one. And in order to not be accused of avoiding the question - well i don't have an answer but i don't consider myself in the death to the sops crowd. I think the system isn't perfect but i certainly don't want you all dead. --xoxo 12:31, 14 August 2009 (BST)
- If you're so right, how about you answer Ross' question? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 12:27, 14 August 2009 (BST)
- Probably, unlike most forums, they suck more here.--xoxo 12:15, 14 August 2009 (BST)
