Votes Multi-Project Switch - Gold Nomination Process

Archives Discussion Archives [1] [2]

Featured articles

Concurrently running with the discussion above this, shall we just have the featured articles be picked by poll on Twitter or something of the like? It's just the box on the side now, and with gold being by merit from now on and not just picked, I think it might be better. Due to lack of comments on FA discussion sections anyways, and the fact that a vote is just kinda a vestige of a past time.—spooky ^{is that... a furry cat?!?} 03:08, 3/16/2019

I think making a poll on twitter would be better than how we've been doing it. Hardly anyone ever comments on the discussions and this way we can see what the rest of the community wishes to see featured. —Patchfeather^{Hangar 18, I know too much} 03:40, March 18, 2019 (UTC)

I don't think that seems right. The point of an FA it's we're telling the community "hey look at this article we're proud of it!" not "go through the wiki and do our jobs for us".

Though I also think using software, such as Google polling, to make the process more modern for nominating and voting on articles would help. -Rustle _{it takes a leap of faith}4:21 Mon Mar 18 2019

Warriors official website articles

To what degree of canonicity do we confirm these articles to be? So far have just been linking them as such, but would like to get usage confirmed so there's a standard. My personal stance is that they cannot be used and cited to as a source alone, but can just be included otherwise for personality/relationships sections, footnotes, and external links sections due to their subjectivity.—spooky ^{is that... a furry cat?!?} 03:08, 3/16/2019

I agree they should be used as a source alone, but can be used for personality/relationships... etc. —Patchfeather^{Hangar 18, I know too much} 03:40, March 18, 2019 (UTC)

R&C vs. N&R

Having 'References and citations' is... extremely redundant. Citations are references to the book. We do, on occasion (and is becoming more often), use ^[note] things. Perhaps we should switch everything to ==Notes and references==, which could easily be done via bot functions, and then merge the ==Notes== sections we have to just display om the normal reference list. Thoughts? —spooky ^{is that... a furry cat?!?} 21:29, 4/28/2019

I agree with this. t would be so much cleaner and less confusing!Av ^{Out of sight and out of mind} () 22:41, April 29, 2019 (UTC)

'Notes and references' (or vise-versa) would be fine with me. As long as it gets rid of the redundancy, whatever you guys pick is fine with me. —Jayce(22:49, 4/29/2019)

I think this good idea. —Hrafnsmál ^{The raven's call} 01:32, April 30, 2019 (UTC)

Notes and references looks good to me. —Patchfeather^{Hangar 18, I know too much} 01:33, April 30, 2019 (UTC)

Notes and citations would be better. Citations are what is actually on the list right now. References would be like, saying we used Into the Wild on an article about Darkstripe. -Rustle _{it takes a leap of faith}2:42 Tue Apr 30 2019

Articles without a proper name

So basically I made a template that should go on articles that don't exactly have a proper name or haven't been stated in the books. Purrgatory comes to my mind, or Darktail's group. Thoughts?—Hrafnsmál ^{The raven's call} 19:19, April 30, 2019 (UTC)

This could also be used for character ones too, like Leafstar's mother or Petal and Fox's mother. Journey pages as well. It's useful and I like it. —Jayce(19:23, 4/30/2019)​

Fren this looks good. —Patchfeather^{Hangar 18, I know too much} 19:29, April 30, 2019 (UTC)

Yes, the will prevent less confusion and also give the articles a tad more spice. Very creative idea! Av ^{Out of sight and out of mind} () 22:43, April 30, 2019 (UTC)

^^ good stuff —spooky ^{is that... a furry cat?!?} 00:06, 5/01/2019

revamping the spoiler template

uhhh I think this would go here? but a wee while ago we were talking about maybe making the spoiler template a bit more....noticable I guess? as it is right now, a small, pale purple banner on a pale blue background doesn't really stand out much, and I think it could stand to be revamped. y/n? david ^🌈 19:24, May 16, 2019 (UTC)

That's a good idea. I don't think users who read articles notice the spoiler tag with the colors it is atm, and they spoil themselves. The same might go for the endspoiler as well. Maybe we could increase the size to that of our other templates as well? That will make it a lot more noticable. Av ^{Out of sight and out of mind} () 19:25, May 19, 2019 (UTC)

I made up drafts a few weeks ago out of boredom. But honestly the current one is kinda obscure and easy to miss, having one that stands out more is definitely needed. —Hrafnsmál ^{The raven's call} 19:46, May 19, 2019 (UTC)

That'd be fine with me- the current one is very difficult to notice and easily missed. —Jayce(19:47, 5/19/2019)

About revamping the spoiler template, i think it's a good idea. On the Baby No Wiki, I made the template pink, but i don't think that'll work here (it obviously won't). ---❤Cattown, pReCisely❤ 23:47, May 27, 2019 (UTC)
