Project talk:Sandbox

Captain Hayden's Primary Topic: Blog Cleanup
After looking at the amount of comments that we have with a potential cleanup over there, why don't we have just a mass cleanup of the wiki? Why don't we look at blogs next to see what is relevant and what is irrelevant. I think that it would be better if we took out the nonsensical blogs or one sentence blogs about "So and so is leaving the wiki" and focus more on developing a more streamlined wiki looking towards the future.

 * That sounds like a fine idea; Community Central & many other Wikis have standards of quality for blogs. Hopefully many people will show up to the sandbox to discuss an implementation that is agreeable to everyone.

Captain Hayden's Secondary Topic: Chat Disabling
This is just a proposal. I feel that many people have made the transition to Discord so why not make it our main form of chat? That way media and events can happen in a more orderly fashion. Or maybe we start transitioning more of a focus to discord related events instead of relying on chat. What do you all think?

 * I definitely disagree and since idk if I can attend the sandbox, I'll say why here. Firstly, many people (including me) cannot/don't want to join Discord. Secondly, we cannot have anything like our current Chat Logs, staff styles, icons, etc. in Discord. Thirdly, we sorta need to hear from other people, because no offense, but you're biased being the discord manager and all. ;) Also, idk how moderation works in Discord. 12:23, November 17, 2017 (UTC)


 * Could you please expound upon why you do not want to join Discord? I’m inclined to agree with you & Tidal, but actually explaining yourself could lend more weight to your argument. Regarding #2; we can have most of the styles, & chat logs are built in, in Discord.
 * I can join Discord, but I don't have time for it. Chat, I can see who's in and pop in for a few minutes. Discord, I'd have to create an account and while I could just pop in, it'd take more time. Ok, about #2. Also, you still haven't explained how moderation in Discord works. It will be sorta odd for the "official" DW chat place to be ruled by a non-staffer (in particular, a non Senior Admin). And can individual users get right? Because otherwise this skews our whole staff operation. 13:36, November 17, 2017 (UTC)


 * @Hayden Definitely disagree, m8. While Discord is undeniably superior to Chat, a lot of people cannot/will not join, like Patrik said. Although you do have a point; Chat is pretty dead nowadays. Even then, people like Tacocat247 can only use Chat due to computer problems. The Tidal Wave (talk) 12:31, November 17, 2017 (UTC)
