The Great Suburb Group Massacre/2011
Great Suburb Group Massacres:
Once Upon a Time...
All the groups listed in suburbs were known active groups. Probably not entirely accurate anymore, and the suburb pages could use a good scrub anyways. So here we are once again, checking to see who is active and worthy of keeping the prime real estate known as the Surburb Group Template!
What To Do
Making Contact
First, you need to set up the suburb for massacring. To do this, copy and paste the below message on to the suburb news section, replacing the word "DATE" for the date:
====DATE====
The [[GSGM|Great Suburb Group Massacre]] has commenced. Check your group talk page to confirm what suburbs you are active in.--~~~~
Next, on the suburb talk page, put the following code in:
==Great Suburb Group Massacre 2011==
{{GSM2011suburb
|suburb=
|sigposter=~~~~
|sigcontact=~~~
|sigcleared=
|g1=
|c1=
|d1=
|g2=
|c2=
|d2=
}}
In the |suburb= line, put the name of the suburb. |sigposter= and |sigcontact= will fill themselves in. |sigcleared= will be where you put your name after all groups have been contacted and declared active/inactive. The meat of the template is the |g#=, |c#=, |d#= code. You will need one set of these for each group in the suburb. |g#= is the name of the group. |c#= should be timestamped with the date the group was contacted, and |d#= dated with the due date for the group to respond.
Once they've been declared active/inactive, replace the |d#= code with either "Confirmed" or "Removed" (it will get formatted on its own, so don't bold the words or do anything else to them).
Group Talk Pages
Next, go to each group's talk page and post the template. Type {{Activelist}} on a group's talk page. This produces this:
 |
Group Active? Request. |
| In order to maintain the wiki as an up to date source of information, groups are occasionally removed from the Suburb pages which they are no longer active in. We would like to know in what suburbs this group is currently active.
Please list the suburb(s) you are currently active in. |
Confirm
After two weeks, go back and check. If no response has been given, type {{Inactivelist}}, producing this:
|
Group Inactive? |
| No reply has been recieved as to whether this group is still active. The 14 days have passed and as such the groups link has been removed from suburb listings. If the group is again active please feel free to revert these changes |
As a final courtesy add something to the news section of the suburb similar to this.
After weeks with no sightings group have been removed from the suburb.
If a reply has been given, Replace {{Activelist}} with {{Activelist!}} as your code. Do NOT add additional code; edit the code you already posted. It will produce this:
 |
Group Confirmed. |
| This group was confirmed active. Thank you for your reply. |
Make sure to update the suburb talk page as well since some groups may have responded there instead of the group talk page, or may not even have a group page. When a group has confirmed activity (or not), replace the |d#= variable with Confirmed or Removed (as appropriate).
Guidelines & Reminders
- Groups only need to confirm their activity once, regardless of how many suburbs they are actually in.
- HOWEVER, all groups listed in a suburb should be included in the template that goes on the suburb's talk page--even if they are listed in multiple suburbs.
CHECKLIST!
This time around we decided to chop Malton into chewable chunks that a single person could deal with all at once, and decided on districts. So that is how the following are sorted. Otherwise, same as before: add your sig and timestamp when all groups in a suburb have been contacted, then another sig and timestamp (plus a strike) when confirmed.
