Time to start a new list! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670

Elanor's list of Reposted Threads

I have reposted ten more threads (all the threads that remained in my "Opinions on all things HP" folder).
Here's the list:

Edit: Forgot to ask! All the remaining threads I still have to repost featured either in the "New Discussion Threads Not Approved or Placed" folder, either in the "Condensed Archived Threads Folder" or in the "Archived Threads to Be Worked" one. Do we all agree that I should choose another folder (character, theory, opinion, etc) for each of the threads which were in these folders?

Elanor,

Thanks for your reposted threads. We're at nearly 23% now. Woo Hoo! bounce

Yes, that's what I would do. You could make note of the fact that the thread you're reposting was originally in one of those sections in the introduction in the header post. But that's just my opinion. Others might not think that was necessary. It would be interesting to hear what they have to say. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508

I agree that you should just find an appropriate place (Theories, Opinions, etc.) for the old archived threads that didn't have a home. I don't think it's necessary to note the lack of home when you re-post - - I don't think it matters to someone reading that the thread used to be in Archived Condensed Threads for example, rather than being originally in Theories. But that's just me! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670

PAH is the only one who needs to know the original placement so she can make the appropriate "check" when the thread is re-posted. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 464751818

Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 Empty It's been a bit quiet on the reposting front...

Maybe that's why I'm the only one who responded to your question. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2398211921

Added later: Embarassed I just realized, that was Elanor's Q not LA's. Many apologies, LA. It is great when someone else responds to a question, so there isn't one lone response, even if it's just to say... I agree!

I know it's a busy time for many of us; I know it is for me as a teacher with the year ending and all the year-end stuff I have to do. But I do know that threads have been reposted here and there over the past week or so, which is great to see! I just encourage folks to post an update on their individual 'threads reposted' post so that they don't forget which threads they've reposted recently, saving yourself some searching time later. No amount of threads reposted is too small. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670 Every little bit counts!

I will wait to update the tables with √s until my Sunday evening, June 19th. Maybe we'll hit 25% soon? Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 266347159

Post  Elanor Wed Jun 15, 2011 10:36 am

Bonjour fellow archivists! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670

Since I had a bit of time today, I reposted some more threads, the 11 that were in the "New Discussion Threads Not Approved or Placed" folder more precisely (and I've updated my list too PaH).

Thanks for the input PaH and LA! I've thought about what both of you said and then thought maybe it would be best to add a note to the threads that were in the "New Discussions" folder (which I just did when reposting them) but that maybe it wasn't necessary when reposting the threads of the "Condensed Archived Threads" one since they all contain "condensed thread" in their title. That's what we call in French "to cut the pear in two" (a tad more fun way to say "to meet halfway", isn't it? Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1003735042).

With those 11 threads we should be close to 25% now, shouldn't we?

We're nearly there, Elanor. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508 I know a few threads have been reposted by other archivists who have not updated their 'reposted threads' posts, so when they do, I will be able to officially add the √s in to the table and then we'll officially be over 25%. bounce I had some time now, Elanor, so I added the √s today instead of waiting until Sunday. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508

I'm wondering, is there anyone who would like some help in reposting some of their archived threads? I will be finished with school at the end of June, when I'll be completely free to work on finishing off the Five Words Stories Archives, and then I'll have some time off and on during July and August to repost, if anyone would like some help.

11 more threads reposted! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670 I've updated my list too.

Thanks for the offer PaH, but I think I will manage to repost all the threads I've saved, there aren't that many left for me. Have you tried to contact Me and My Shadow or Odo? I think they both had saved some threads too and I haven't seen them on the forum in a long time. Just an idea! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508

Taking a quick break and saw your post, Elanor. Great news! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670 Don't have time to update the table right now, tho'. Will do so tomorrrow.

Actually, when I made that offer, I was extending it to the current archivists, since i noticed that some have reposted threads at less frequent rates than others. It was just an idea, tho'! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508 I'll stay Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2830478367 about it from now on. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670

LOL - that would probably be me. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1437562208 I have indeed been pokey. I might have to forego the Riddles Thread for a while in order to make more progress. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 3906177977

Actually the re-posting part is fast - it's the formatting and editing of the threads in Notepad format that takes a while. And there were some original posters who posted with great enthusiasm and frequency, but with little regard to spelling, punctuation, capitalization, etc. Although once I finish with the Theories, editing and posting might be faster.

Actually, I would be glad to email some of the Notepad folders to you, PAH. And I can look up Odo's email - it was public in the old forum, and I sent him an email back in March. I'll look it and send it to you via private message.

And after all my pontificating about not needing to note what was a Condensed, Archived Thread, I just re-posted a thread (Killing Harry/Sparing Lily) that really needed to have some notes added about it, one of which was that the thread had been condensed long ago and it's condition was as I found it. (sigh)

LA, there are quite a few √s next to 'LA' in the tables... you're doing fine. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670 A favor, tho'... please do a quick update of the threads you've reposted since [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]... we want to get them all in to the tables. Who knows? With the ones Elanor reposted recently and yours, we might get really close to 30%!

About reposting, just to be clear, I'm not offering to reformat the docs and then send them to be reposted by someone else. I would do both. Also, are these threads with voluminous posts? Like the Chat threads? 'Cause... ummm... Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1437562208 I'm not volunteering to repost those. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 793915934 There are way too m-a-n-y posts for me, and I didn't/don't post much on that thread anyway. But the Theories, Predictions, Opinions, etc., sure!

PAH, I believe we are in perfect accord. I understood you meant to format and re-post. And I really wanted to do the Chat threads myself - I think they will be easier than theories involving Snape and his loyalty. (Hat's off to Mona for re-posting the ulcer-inducing Snape threads!)

I also wanted to do the Fanfiction threads myself - if for no other reason than I can't see emailing the file of artwork to anyone. Which reminds me, we do need one more thread for the files from the Fanfiction forum, but I hate calling the the "Archived Fanfiction" thread because I didn't save any of the stories, only the Chat threads and artwork. Any suggestions from anyone?

I've only added 3 more threads, but updated my list [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].

LA, please send me a PM of the threads you're considering sending over to me, with their approx. post lengths, and then we'll take it from there. I'll probably be done reformatting all the Five Words stuff and reposting it by the end of the first week in July, *fingers crossed*, then can start reposting other stuff then.

LA, I'm almost done reformatting all the threads in the Magical Creatures and Plants folder you sent me. If you'd like to send me any more, I'm game. I'm partial to threads of under the 1,000 posts count. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508

Now, I just want to see which demarcation between posts I prefer before I repost later tonight:

this (single white line)



or this (double white line)




single or double line?

this (single black line)



or this (double black line)



single or double black line?

EDIT: Hmmm... the black line only shows up when I use Safari, not Firefox. Curious.

Maybe I should just use


—————————————————————————————————

Oh, and to answer your question Julia, your reposted thread looks fine to me. But one thing, it was hard to see where one batch of posts ended and a new one started when I was scrolling down quickly since I look for the archivist's avatar as an indicator. So without an avatar on the side to look out for, it's easy to go past a particular section's start.


—————————————————————————————————

EDIT 2: LA and Elanor, I'm going to try and update the Reposted Threads table tonight. LA, how 'bout: "Archived Chat threads from the FanFiction Forum" and "Archived Artwork from the FanFiction Forum"?

LOL - that would probably be me. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1437562208 I have indeed been pokey.
LA, there are quite a few √s next to 'LA' in the tables... you're doing fine. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670 A favor, tho'... please do a quick update of the threads you've reposted since [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]...
Ah, well then, I'm the guilty one. Alas, I have one home computer (desk top model) but four children (aged 12 to 16) and a dear wife who is a school teacher so of course needs to get her school work done and home is her planning period. Thus I get the last hour of the day. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 3276373137

But school is out? Well guess who just got back from a ten day vacation? My wife's niece got married the day after my son was a junior marshal at graduation, so we traveled about 600 miles from 5 AM Saturday to arrive about two hours before the 4:30 PM wedding. After that everything else was easy and great.

I have a couple threads in progress. I'll update my list when I finish them. Maybe I'll look for a few short thread to post, but I still won't catch up with the others. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1437562208 Now I'm trying to catch up on my Sleep after getting home. Four days later and I'm still tired.

Slow at reposting? That will definitely be me. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 3906177977 I'll try and hurry up - as much as I can.

Re: about the missing avatar: Yes, I've noticed that, too, and here is another promise: I'll have an avatar as soon as I find a picture that I like for this purpose. Of course, I'll need to spend some time on looking for one as well. I still haven't joined the baby picture project, but maybe one of these days...

Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 Empty Please check the Archived/Reposted threads tables BEFORE reposting a thread!

Post  Potteraholic Fri Jun 24, 2011 7:35 pm

Hi archivists! I've updated the Archived/Reposted threads tables with Elanor, LA, John B., and my reposted threads. And now... we are at 175/578 threads reposted, just over 30%! bounce bounce

I spent the better part of an hour updating the tables, for various reasons. One was to check the update of threads that were archived by 2 and sometimes 3 people. It turns out that 2 threads: 1) Killing Harry/Sparing Lily (Condensed Thread) and 2) Dark Wizard Grindelwald and the Harry Potter story (Condensed Thread), were reposted twice.

1) [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and
2) [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].

Could folks please check the tables (links can always be found in the header post of this thread, and reproduced here, so you know what to look for there) to see if you're about to repost a thread that someone else has archived and then correspond with them to see if they plan on reposting it or not?

Index of Tables of Threads Archived from World Crossing

• Table of Threads Archived/Reposted from World Crossing, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
• Table of Threads Archived/Reposted from World Crossing, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
• Table of Threads Archived/Reposted from World Crossing, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
• Table of Threads Archived/Reposted from World Crossing, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
• Table of Threads Archived/Reposted from World Crossing, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
Or check the folder a thread belongs in to see if it's already been reposted there? It would save you the trouble of reposting it, and it would save me the trouble of trying to figure out why there are duplicate threads. I put the duplicate threads in red last month to help people notice which threads were duplicated. I thought red would be noticeable. I guess it doesn't stand out enough. *sigh* Maybe another color would garner more attention?

Also, when you post your updates, could you group the threads you've reposted together by category? It makes it easier to copy and paste the threads as a block of writing, rather than having to search for things that belong together in the same table, line by line. It would save me time, a precious commodity for all of us.

Thanks! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508

Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 Empty Post titles need to be at least 10 characters long on this forum.

Post  Potteraholic Fri Jun 24, 2011 9:22 pm

Yesterday, I posted a thread entitled 'Inferi' but when I first tried to send it, I got a message saying that post titles needed to be at least 10 characters long. Since I didn't know what else to call the 'Inferi' thread, I tried adding spaces to the end of the word... and it worked! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508 A space is a character after all, albeit a boring one. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 464751818

Lady A, I noticed you reposted a thread called 'Cave' today and added 'Sea' to make it 10 characters. You could add spaces at the end, and then you wouldn't need 'Sea'.

Thanks PAH! I will try that.

It was odd getting that message about the number of characters - why does it matter how long a thread title is?

It worked!

Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 Empty Thanks, John :-)

Thanks, John. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508 Your original update post has all the new s. Re: putting a link to table 1 in your previous post, I have that page bookmarked and open it as a new window when I update, so I'm all set in terms of accessing that particular page quickly. Thanks for the section titles that are links to the archive forums you reposted your threads in, but I don't really need to look them up to update the table. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1242326132 Am I supposed to?

as of now 178/578 threads reposted! cheers Almost 31%! bounce bounce

EDIT: YAY, LA! Weird about that space thing, tho'. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1242326132 Strange rule to have.

Also, my offer still stands for sending me more threads to repost... to anyone. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508

Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 Empty Reposting update

Post  Elanor Sun Jun 26, 2011 12:40 pm

Hello all! Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2222139670

I've reposted 11 more threads. So sorry about some threads being posted twice! Actually I was sure I had checked the lists before posting. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1242326132 Maybe did we repost at about the same time? Or maybe I checked before the table was updated. Or maybe it's just the tiredness of the end of the school year that confuses my brain (which is very well possible!) Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2281877974.

Anyways, my apologies again! Feel free to delete whatever thread/post that should not be where I posted them. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1437562208

I have updated my list PaH (and sorted the threads by folder in it).

Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 Empty Thanks, Elanor.

Post  Potteraholic Sun Jun 26, 2011 4:14 pm

I will update the tables now. Thanks for grouping the threads by category.

Re: deleting duplicated threads, I am going to leave that to the folks who reposted the threads to work out amongst themselves. Or the duplicated threads can stay... the more the merrier, I suppose.

Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 Empty More Updates

Post  Lady Arabella Sun Jun 26, 2011 10:35 pm

PAH, I have updated my list [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].

As far as the duplicates go, it doesn't much matter to me whether they get deleted or stay (not helpful, I know Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 2752390508 ). The original two folders of "Condensed Archived Threads" and "Archived Threads to be Worked into Group Folder" were already duplicates anyway.

And rather than checking the table (sorry, PAH), I find it's easier just to look in the folder to see what's there. Efforts to Archive WX Threads - Page 11 1437562208
