NKO

That bastard shouldn't be a moderator on ED. I am not a bad guy. I only want to be in charge of a site like this. It has potential. I have potential. He unlocked the Grace Saunders page, then reverted me. How is he allowed to even be on the team? Why? He is an asshole with no skills to be fitted in here. He shouldn't be a moderator on here. I'm fucking annoyed. Who the fuck does he think he is? He is a fucking moron. You ought to give him a manual on A to Z of how not to moderate. I've got a good fucking mind not to bother trying to edit any articles on here. The Sasha Grey one interested me. But fuck it. Fuck him. Fuck you all. Cannot even do your fucking jobs properly. What is the fucking point in being a fucking administrator if you cannot even do a fucking job that you are supposed to be able to fucking do? What is the point? He's laughing and teasing me about my cock. Like he even has one either. I get laid more times in a month than he does in college. I'm fucking pissed me off about it. I am. I'm fucking pissed me off about that. I was successfully editing the page. I'm fucking steamed like a cabbage right now. I've had enough of this bullshit website. And that's all it is - bullshit. I am never ever coming back to ED ever again. What is the fucking point when you've got fucking idiots in charge of the damn fucking site? Get a fucking life, you fucking lazy, fat ass, unemployed, sunshine deprived, lower than grass, sons of bitches. This is Grace in case you wondered. I am fucking totally pissed me off about NKO. Delete his fucking nigger ass or I won't be signing up here ever again. I'm both upset and I'm angry. Simply put, NKO is a bad sign of things to come.Swagger America 10:56, 5 March 2013 (EST)

The last changed date is the bold dates. It's the date that the articles were created/moved into mainspace/stopped being redirects.

example:

• H - Main Page/ED:BNA/H made on March 3

March 3 is the date that that the current Main Page/ED:BNA/H (Gorilla warfare) was made it into an official article as opposed to a redirect. -Gray 20:36, 8 March 2013 (EST)

POTNs

1. 325px is the largest width 32 bit computers (40% of internet users) can display as a POTN without a scrollbar appearing at the bottom.
2. Files are automatically centered when they're embedded on the Main Page.
3. Most gifs are very small, don't stretch them to 380px unless you want them to look pixelated.

Making an unfunny article funny

We've made improvements to the KK article you helpfully flagged up as emo. It's waaaaay less emo now, but the tidying is ongoing. The new angle is that we're going to show that she's a whore not only to get her posting flames all over her tumblr, but also to totally gut her white knight fans by posting things which prove she is a whore, and not merely the pure weeaboo cosplayer she makes out to be.

There is talk of some juicy info coming in, but as you haven't been proven wrong yet, and as the article is being watched by enemies of the lullz, please leave it up there until we've finished tidying, and then decide if you've been proven wrong. ;) Jazzybellio4912

Category/Template/Portal report

Yesterday I wrote a script that generates a category, template and portal report. What does that mean? Say someone adds the TV template to an article but forgets to add the article to the TV portal. My report will catch that. A great way to populate portals with articles. If you want a list of articles missing from a portal just let me know which one 17:43, 26 April 2013 (EDT)

IRC if you wish to discuss LJ 19:39, 29 April 2013 (EDT)

Something I noticed is that PDF files can be uploaded to ED. If you give me a list of LJ pages I will export them to PDF. You could do this yourself but it might be best if I do that. I can run Linux in VirutalBox and use a VPN so nothing RL gets saved 22:45, 29 April 2013 (EDT)

IRL. There is a chance no personal information would end up in the PDF files but I don't know. So I am offering just to be safe 22:50, 29 April 2013 (EDT)

CrackRabbit Portal

You mentioned that you were interested in improving some portals. Not sure if you are interested but I made a basic portal in your userspace. Everything has been removed except a couple tables. Change the colors or do whatever you like.

User:CrackRabbit/portal

Also here is a list of HTML colors by name. Also Mr. Jonzz has a nice palette. Hopefully this helps! If you have any questions let me know. 09:02, 5 May 2013 (EDT)

Not sure if improvements to the TV and Movies portal can go forward. This morning Gray told me I cannot add standard subpages. Keep in mind that almost all portals he didn't create have them. Also he hinted that if I was to add missing pages he would remove them. You can read the discussion here. If you want to move forward I would see about getting permission to do so just to be safe. Now I understand why Zaiger got pissed at me for breathing down new editor's necks. 23:37, 5 May 2013 (EDT)

Figured out how to make some decent looking headers so I added them your portal. 01:44, 7 May 2013 (EDT)

All of the pornography that I upload is as new to me as it is to anyone who found out about it here, and I usually only upload it if I find it superbly-done, funny, repulsive, evokes some weird fetish, or some combination of the four.

tags

please stop putting emo and crap tags on every new article thank you. Uberfukken 23:18, 3 August 2013 (EDT)

That one really is a blatant attack article from one group of tweenage DevianTartlets to another. The small clique of 12 year olds she's pissing off by tracing their work are actually more lulzy than she is. Also the tags often provide good motivation. I normally tell people that they can have the tag taken off when they put in some more effort into making the article better. Otherwise they often just get complacent with its crap level of quality and give up editing it altogether in about a week. If you leave those tags on though they'll put in a good solid months worth of edits to improve it...or they'll simply give up entirely at that point, which is a clear indication that the article should have never been made in the first place (cause if they don't care, no one else is going to care for them). --Onideus 23:27, 3 August 2013 (EDT)

If someone tagged my article two days in and called it shit I'd tell you all to fuck off and stop writing entirely, please reevaluate your motivational techniques. Tag articles when they're finished not while they're cooking. Uberfukken 23:32, 3 August 2013 (EDT)

Depends on the article subject/history. I don't tag without actually looking into the subject of the article itself. If you take the effort to actually look at what the subject is doing, how they're posting, how people are reacting to them, etc, etc...you can make a pretty definitive determination as to whether it's a blatant attack article or not. Also, actually reading the article helps. And yes, an article where the ONLY point of attack is "they're tracing my friends work"...is a blatant attack article...and actually goes AGAINST what ED stands for, since tracing in general, especially tracing the artwork of DevianTartlets incites MASSIVE levels of DRAMA...which is a good thing...well, for us. The very fact that such tracing incites them into coming here in DROVES to try and make blatant attack articles over their traced "art" (read: worthless tripe) is proof positive that the tracers are effectively working for us. We're not an attack site, it's not our job to go after "art stealers", it's our job to incite/promote/document DRAMA.

Also, that article has been up for four days now...if they actually ~had~ any worthwhile content, aside from "they stoled my stuffs"...pretty sure we'd have seen it by now. *shrugs*

Here's my thoughts on this. Don't interfere with people unless you're being constructive. Let them finish, if it's shit or a personal attack article (better go tag all 2000 of them), decide that when it's done. Otherwise all you're doing is interrupting the creative process and scaring away new users. Uberfukken 23:57, 3 August 2013 (EDT)

Well we used to just outright shit can such articles the second they were effectively aborted. At this point we basically "tag and bag". We don't burn the crap on site, but we ~do~ tag it...which is important...ya know so they show up in the little lists and then you can go through by date every month or so and determine whether it needs to be removed (I usually give them one to three months depending on the subject).

The problem is that if we DON'T tag blatant attack articles and they AREN'T improved then they wind up slipping through the cracks in droves and the site becomes inundated with shit/cancer. At present I'm actively monitoring/tracking roughly 50 different new articles...and those tags are of paramount importance in being able to do just that.

If you'd like to make or suggest some ~other~ tag, which can be used for bad article tracking I'd have no problem with that. The "shit" and "blatant attack article" tags though are, at present, the easiest to track (and the most descriptive).

In general I really don't think the 90s era "Generation Barney" form of coddling and giving them proverbial A+ for having an "A"ttitude that's +ositive is a very good idea. It generally breeds stagnation, mediocre quality, complacency, USI and a host of other self-destructive behaviors. Sometimes you just need to point blank tell someone, "This is shit!" If they get all indignant and flustered over it and "take their ball and go home", well, "nothing of value was lost". It's those who have the strength, determination, will and RESOLVE to stand steadfast, to IMPROVE and NOT GIVE UP...those are the kinds of editors we want...not whiny, frustrated, generation Barney rejects who can't stand an ounce of criticism. --Onideus 00:11, 4 August 2013 (EDT)

Stop harassing users and  utilize your resources instead of tagging their articles. :) Uberfukken 00:20, 4 August 2013 (EDT)

It might be a good idea to come up with some kind of actual rating system of sorts, which could be artificially generated based on a number of parameters/criteria. CodeHappy from PoE had some pretty interesting forum analysis scripts that could, for example, look at common/unique word/phrase forms/counts and could then generate "uniqueness stats". He even had one that tracked during which phase of the moon a person most often made their posts. I'll try and put up some examples here at some point, as well as put together some sample forms that could be used for manual article rating, like say a simple check off/radio button style form. Or heck we could even just use a "5 Stars" style rating. --Onideus 00:53, 4 August 2013 (EDT)
