we need to get active because this one of best wiki's ever!
Just Updated
I've recently made a new account (http://flutterbutter.wikia.com/wiki/User:Kaori_Fujimiya) and I have promoted it to Bureaucrat as I will now be using it more often.
I will still, however, be using this account as well. I made this new account because
1) I wanted a newer account.
2) I wanted to start over at some places.
3) These names normally get taken pretty quickly.
4) I just felt like it.
I hope you understand and don't worry, I'm more active on wikia now~
As GuitarRock brought to my attention on my talkpage, there are several pointless and unnecessary categories.
There are two steps that would be taken to stop this; standardizing categories and deleting old ones.
Standardizations are the tougher half; both in naming and with what exists. As for naming, I think it would be prudent to have names fully spelled out (e.g. My Little Pony Images rather than MLP images, hypothetically). Capitilizing all words in category names would also help.
As for which categories should or shouldn't exist, I'd like to hear everybody else's thoughts first. Should, for example, a "Rarity" category exist? A "Rarity Images" one? At what point do sub-categories become too dense to be useful?
Lastly, the cleanup of old, outside-of-standardization categories. Ones not adhering to new naming conventions would need to be renamed by an admin, and ones that shouldn't exist would be deleted.
Thank you for any thoughts on this matter.
We had a discussion about this earlier, but I don't feel we are clear on a few things with forums. These things should be cleared up:
- How long does a forum stay open?
- How many admins/users must be ok with the idea?
- How do we go about a forum with opposition and support?
I think forums should be open for 4 days. I feel a week is too long. I think 1 admin must support the idea if other admins aren't active in the discussion and at least 2 other users. I think if more than one user raises opposition in a forum it should stay open longer than the normal amount of time. What do you think?
So I haven't been on this wiki for awhile, it's because i've been with my other wiki's anyway, I'm back and ready!
In browsing the wiki, I found a mild redundancy; many pages, for example, have both "Female Character" and "Character" categories. However, it would, in my opinion, be more prudent to use subcategories, making Female Character a subcategory of Characters, for example. Thoughts?
(EDIT: Also, I noticed that most categories don't technically have a page. Is that actionable?)
A gallery automatically reduces any images on it to 150px or less. However, when an animated image is reduced like that, it loses the animation. Thus, I propose that all animated images have another image with the same name but with THUMB at the start; on image galleries, the thumb images are used, but would link to the original image. Thoughts?
So I've noticed that we don't have a file naming. In my opinion it is more proper to have descriptive file names. We don't have to be as descriptive as other wiki's with "FANMADE" prefixes or season tags. We should just have a descriptive name that identifies the image. For example in instead of File:8ce.gif We could say "Ponies riding on a rollercoaster." It's just a bit more descriptive and helps user identify that photo. We would have to rename some photos, and we would have to take care of red links ourselves, which may take a little work. Still, I think it is worth it.
Hello this is my new wiki http://friendsonlyemotemaking.wikia.com/. And I want permission to make it a affilate to the Flutterbutter wiki.
I saw on my friends wiki, the automessages are different. How do we do that? Should we add them?
Ok, I'm not one to start forums, but this is bugging me. I have noticed recently quite a few random blog posts have surfaced (not that I have anything wrong with that). I've noticed that other wikis have blog post guidlines. I just wanted to put forward the idea of blog post guidelines. MLP wiki has two that wouldn't be too hard to follow
1. Is it relvant to the Wiki
2. Or is it relevant to the general topic of the Wiki
Also, something else. We seem to decide things by waiting for Flutterbutter to decide. I know that he is the founder, but other wikis don't have to rely on their founder to make decisions. So I'm going to bring forward something that may help in this regard.
-Forums will be discussed for 7 days, and then we see how much support or oppostion their is and that will be the deciding factor.
Thank you for your time, UP, out.
I am gonna block this user(I know she does not have a profile) because she threatens to vandalize my profile on every wiki i go to, And since the Flutterbutter wiki is on my "favorite wikis" then she may notice it and start vandalizing my profile. I know this seems uncalled for, But to protect my profile here. I have to do it.
I think we should add more cartoons in the wiki, I mean there are only three cartoons here, And there are more anime. This is just a message to people who work with Anime/Cartoons(Cartoons Mostly). Nothing important about this, I am just asking.
I believe that we need to slim down some of the admins, as some are no longer active on the wiki that much. If you don't believe jsut check the User list and see how many edits some people have. I think we should put forward the idea of revoking the rights on some inactive admins.
We need Chat mods, We have no chat mods around here. Some people can be good on the chat and may not contribute. That is why we need chat mods on the chat. Seriously GuitarRock needs a break from watching the chat(Lol if you want a break), I mean who wants to open another screen all the time? Lol the weirdest post ever.
So anyway because of the whole Scootaloolover incident we may need some Bureaucrats, besides just Flutterbutter. I talked to Flutterbutter and he would like to see if anyone would volunteer for this position, so I decided to make it a forum. Anyway just reply and I'll make sure Flutterbutter knows and let him decide if you or anyone else should be a bureaucrat. Also you should be an admin first to apply for this position.
Dear brothers and sisters,
Some of you might not / have noticed that recently Scootaloo lover23 an admin of this wiki has been vandalising some of our wiki contents.
After being inactive for quite some time she decided to come back and sabotage a few main pages of this wiki which me and other admins have worked so hard on.
This includes changing the main background of this wiki without throwing out any discussion whatsoever, deleting contents from my profile ( which includes some coding i'm working on) without telling me or warning me ahead of time, being rude to the Head Admin of this wiki TrickableStars for putting video contents on this wiki by scolding him instead of praising him (like seriously wut?), why being rude to someone for contributing to this wiki?
She even leaves a message on Guildmaster Grovyle's wall saying that he causes trouble even though he's been inactive for a month now (like seriously??) then ordering him to put contents on his profile. I think users can have their rights to not put anything on their profile and leave them blank, since when does admin has the rights to interfere with that?
For a better future of this wiki, I hereby create this topic on whether we should have her rights removed or have her demoted.
Please vote on whether you agree or disagree, and whether to remove her rights or demotion.
