Administrative Requests Consolidation

[wildk]

Dear Oni,

I wish for nothing but all the people in the world including you and everyone on Baka-tsuki to have a great year, or whatever's left of it.

Yours,
Random dude.

Hey guys, I can fulfill most of your (forum only) requests, but I'll need more details if you want them done. Excuse me in advance if my post sounds a bit rude or terse. I'm kind of rushing right now lol.

1. Merge Itsuka Tenma no Kurosagi into Dai Densetsu no Yuusha no Densetsu subforum and rename it to "Densetsu no Yuusha no Densetsu & Itsuka Tenma no Kurosagi" [from larethian]
Reason: relevance

Where are the Itsuka Tenma threads at? I did a quick search for "Itsuka Tenma no Kurosagi" and only your post showed up. Provide links and titles with forum locations, and I'll merge the threads.

2. Split Hidan no Aria from its subforum into its standalone subforum, then merge Accel World into Sword Art Online subforum [from larethian, with approval from project staff]
Reason: relevance

For Hidan no Aria splitting: I'll do that later.

For Accel World: Same as before, but with a lot more results that I don't want to parse through. Links with title and location will help immensely.

3. Update subforum thumbnails [from staff of respective projects]

Which subforum and thumbnail?

4. Create Campione subforum [from Kadi]
Reason: Supervisor request

Already done before this reply.

5. Upgrade Oda Nobuna no Yabou to full project [from staff of project]
Reason: Project requirements met, active TL available, verified by larethian

What do you mean? More details would be helpful.

-Give Campione a sub-forum.

Already done ^^

-Promote/Approve people (pudding321, Lan013, Simon, etc.)

More details please. Are they translators?

-Approve the projects.

Which projects? Is this wiki side, or do they need their own subforum?

-Move Haruka with PuiPui and the rest.

Are you suggesting to move it to the Auxiliary Brigades subforum? If so, why?

And I wonder if we should give more rights to the Tsukaima Region.

Why? Is there any problems with rights in there?

Thumbnail for Campione subforum:

I'll see what I can do.

I'll like all the forum sections to prevent guest posting new topics.
[...]
Off BBCode, img, url for all guest
In addition, I guess let all account's first post to be moderated.

Is spam that bad? I find that most of them are dealt with pretty quickly here.

And his signature "fixed"...

I'll see what I can do.

For the others, it seems like the alt language stickies have already been dealt with. As for the wiki sidebar, I don't have the power to change that, so you'll have to wait for someone else to change that.

If I missed anything, let me know.

The thing is the other newer sections disallow it, I'm kind of for consistancy.
I got scarred by the images posted by a spammer cuz the img tags work...

The 3rd point is for when all guest posting new topic gets lock down, then they'll be registering accounts to spam...

Wow. Long time since I saw you post.

I think Lare meant "Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi"

Accel world thread:
viewtopic.php?f=44&t=4530

3. Update subforum thumbnails [from staff of respective projects]

Which subforum and thumbnail?

High School DxD and Campione, for now.

Campione's thumb: http://i.imgur.com/IYa8Y.jpg
DxD's: http://i.imgur.com/vhA6L.jpg

-Promote/Approve people (pudding321, Lan013, Simon, etc.)

More details please. Are they translators?

Yeah. Well, there are still pending translators/editors applications to be confirmed, I think.

-Move Haruka with PuiPui and the rest.

Are you suggesting to move it to the Auxiliary Brigades subforum? If so, why?

A question of constancy. in those subforums in the aux. Brigade, it's mostly dead projects sub-forums. Since Haruka has no translator for a long time, it's better to move it.

And I wonder if we should give more rights to the Tsukaima Region.

Why? Is there any problems with rights in there?

Since many of them are PDFs/ePub/MOBi makers (well, at least the active ones), I wonder if they could at least edit others' posts in active projets/subforums. Also, I was wondering if the translators and editors powers could extended to the sub-forums and the teasers section like in the Aux Brigade section. (moving threads, deleting posts, etc.)


--------
Also, is it possible to add a sub-forum description for Campione! ? Just like other subforums', but with the novel's name replaced.

They should be banned.

[Kadi]

As project supervisor, could I please get full rights in the new Campione subforum? E.g. right now I can't delete posts anymore.

Or maybe make it forum-wide, so that I can take better action against the spam-waves...

Kadi...project supervisor on the wiki is different from admin rights on the new Campione subforum...

And speaking of spammers, we do need better measures nowadays. People are finding loopholes into this system.

Yeah, but isn't it odd that I can delete posts in the general "Auxiliary Brigades" and not in a special subforum of a project I'm working on, and in a central position at that? And between admin rights and ability to delete "bad" posts should be a significant difference, even if I were to be allowed to delete posts anywhere (spam issue).

Actually, translators can delete post in sections like the Auxiliary Brigade and the Future Project Suggestions, is that suppose to be the way, or the newer sections are of the proper rights-settings?

Yeah, and that's why I asked that translators and editors get rights like Aux. brigade and Future projects, at least for the active sub-forum and the teasers projects sub-forum.

[bicube]

Wow. Long time since I saw you post.

Haha, yeah. I've been lazy about posting the last few years, though I've been around helping alt. language starters when they ask by PM. Good to see you again too!

Anyway, I think all the requested thread moves have been done. Again, let me know if I missed anything.

For the icons, I can't figure out how to put them in; might have to wait for TLG on that one. Same goes for user/guest/posting/editing rights.

[KuroiHikari]

Edit: You're right

Spoiler! :

In light of the recent spam

I'll like to suggest a new user group

Entry: able to post, but all tags don't work, and urls are censored or deleted.
Normal: Here users have to be approved manually

Or, there's the standard moderation until post count>something.

[larethian]

^ That should be a suggestion put up at wiki feedback forum for discussion, not an admin request.

Thumbnail for Campione subforum:

I can't find a thread who ask for a thumbnail nor a vote to decide the thumbnail.
I don't consider a decision made in less than two days by a few post lost in the general discussion thread as a valid decision to choose the thumbnail.

DxD has its thumbnail now, though the image might not be...
