FYI: the wiki was having a problem again and decided to use so many server resources that it killed the main LRR site as well :( we have temporarily disabled it until we can find the problem

Yeah, Graham told me that's what happens most of the time that the site goes down: the wiki is pulling some phat pipes or whatever and pulls the rest of the site down with it.

I did just upload like eight pictures of This Hat... if that has anything to do with it, I don't know.

Is it possible that some of the larger articles are causing problems? (Such as Video Availability, which takes a few minutes to load)

My brother was trying to find which Feed Dump had the first "Florida Man" joke, but we couldn't find it without the wiki, so we had to watch a bunch of Feed Dumps.

It's not all bad. I almost forgot how good Poop Skeleton is.

Alas, without the wiki, I am adrift.

The wiki is back up! I have updated the list of streams to reflect the new streaming schedule, and added all the episodes that have been uploaded. Can anyone advise me on creating a navigation bar for LoadingReadyLIVE?

Also, I've noticed that most of the ongoing streams don't have forum topics, and I don't think I'm authorized to create them. Could someone please do that, and let me know when you have so I can link to them on the wiki?

Just uploaded a picture to the wiki. Let's see if it doesn't explode.

EDIT: So far, so good.

Does it look derpy with credits in each segment?

Considering the synopsis of each segment says who's in it, I think it does look a bit derpy.

I'm going to try to disambiguate the three "LoadingReadyLive" things, moving the current LoadingReadyLive page to "LoadingReadyRun Streams" and making anew page for the show LoadingReadyLive. I'll do that tonight sometime.

The featured article for this month is Crapshots Ep.23 - The Accusation.

I have listed the Desert Bus Documentary Q&A as part of GPLP. To whoever makes a page for the documentary: that's where the video and its date of streaming are.

How about we use Infoboxes, like the ones on Crew pages which contain their picture and other info, for video's etc. ? It would give us a place for the "vital statistics" to go and would leave the rest of the page for other info. I would be willing to make the templates for the infoboxes.

I suppose Memory Alpha has those, don't they?

I think it's worth looking into, but let's not roll anything out until we get a design everyone agrees to, also qualifying that we might just not want to use it.

Anyone else have thoughts on that?

Sounds good to me. Wikipedia kind of has a similar thing, of course, which the design could be partially modelled after.

Yeah, I was thinking to model them after the infobox we already have for the crew members (I have cleaned that up a bit, but imo it still needs a bit more work with bullet-points for duties, family and pretty much every other parameter that has multiple entries)

My idea was to base it around that and theme them according to their episode style (e.g. feed-dump themed for feed-dump episodes etc.)

Also can someone explain the difference between the properties ReleaseDate and AirDate? they seem to be used for the exact same thing....

Here's a thought: there could be a category in the video infobox for shooting location, and when it's added to the infobox, it adds it to a category: Videos filmed in {{{Location}}}.

What should the July Featured Article be? I'll change that tonight.

Should Hodor and Cori be listed as crew? They're both heavily involved in making numerous LRR things, so I feel like just 'contributors' doesn't really make sense.

I based it purely on the LRR about page when I made it but feel free to change it as you see fit

That was sort of what I figured, but I didn't know if it was the weirdest autocorrect ever.

so I thought of a new way to do the OnThisDay shown on the front page. I made a query that currently resides on my user page that shows the pages which have the semantic properties for the current day and month. This means the "template" updates automatically.

It has some limitations though:
    sorting doesn't work (right now), because dates are spread out between Air- and Releasedate properties
    Videos without pages don't show up

Well, that's obviously the ideal way to do it, and we've thought of that, but it just hasn't been implemented yet.

It seems the wiki is down again, I'm only getting:
A database query error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software.

:(
