Update on the translations

[Mystes]

Speaking of programming, why do I have to answer questions when I edit the wiki?

I only did it once, when I edited just after the server went down. It told me to spell Baka-Tsuki. But that's the last time. Before that it was some additions or captcha(once).

Well, back on the topic, I'll use M.I.A. and K.I.A., OK. But I wonder if I could add somewhere "Inactive"

Inactive Projects is the category name a project gets with the stalled tag at the moment...

not sure whether you are referring to projects or people. but if you are referring to translators/editors, I think you should. inactive does not equal uncontactable/disappeared, it could be inactive on volition. while MIA/KIA usually means cannot be contacted at all, from I had observed.

Projects mainly. But thats standard form for Translators/Editors already, so its really a non-issue.

Fine.

[Poke2201]

Whats fine supposed to mean oh curt one?

[onizuka-gto]

Yes yes.

The levels of Staff missing-ness goes like this:

AWOL -> MIA -> KIA

Inactivity for 3 months -> 6 months -> 12 months

By KIA stage we more or less written the staff off and open the projects they were working on.

Can I use this for the project's active status?

[Darklor]

I dont think that this would make any sense since "AWOL -> MIA -> KIA" is about peoples... not things. I cant imagine a project going AWOL - only awry

[rpapo]

With regards to projects, the only statuses that really make sense are:

• Active - Updates in the past six months.
  Stalled - No updates in over six months.
  Abandoned - No updates in over 18 months.
  Licensed - We had to stop and withdraw the content from the website.

The flash-in-the-pan pages where somebody starts with a burst of enthusiasm that ebbs very quickly (less than a month, sometimes days) might be treated specially, perhaps marking them as abandoned more quickly.

[Poke2201]

I say that those would work just fine. Readers know the difference.

[Mystes]

Will change it as soon as I'm in front of a computer.

[Poke2201]

Shana updates added. SnS resurrection imminent.

Uhm, wasnt that project much sooner gone than Fall/Winter? Wasnt it already in Spring?

[Poke2201]

Well, its been approved for reinstatement. Thats pretty much the gist of it.
