Organizing?
« on: February 15, 2010, 05:24:45 PM »
Do you think we should add some more sections, sub forums, etc. for the Alliance forums? It may help with organization and cliche stuff.
Here's a list of what I think the forums should look like.

Forums
-Alliance News
   *ZeldaWiki news
   *Super Mario Wiki news
   *Bulbapedia news
-Introduction
-Suggestions/Opinions/Problems
-General Chat

Gaming
-Nintendo
   *Wi-fi
   *Pokemon
   *Super Mario
   *Legend of Zelda
   *Other
-Microsoft
   *Xbox Live
-Sony
   *Sony Network
-PC
   *MMORPG
-Other


Arts and crafts
-Art Gallery
   *Art Shop
   *Art Wars
-Comics
   *Manga   
   *Fan Comics/Manga
-Stories
   *Fanfiction

Media
-Music
   *Remix Gallery
-Television
-Movies



If you all agree with this, then create the sections/forum as you wish. But if you want to add/remove something, I won't stop you.
However, this is just a suggestion so you don't have to do this.

Also if your confused about the list above...

Yeah, just having "General Discussion" is not enough.

   *Super Mario Wiki news
   *Bulbapedia news
-Introduction
-Suggestions/Opinions/Problems
-General Chat
The Alliance news is basically part of General Discussion. We don't need those child-boards, seeing as this forum deals with NIWA as a whole; news related to a specific wiki will go on their forum.

There is no need for an introduction board and a Suggestions/Opinions/Problems board. Perhaps one board for assistance with the forum can be made.

General Chat is General Discussion, if I assume correctly.

Gaming
-Nintendo
   *Wi-fi
   *Pokemon
   *Super Mario
   *Legend of Zelda
   *Other
-Microsoft
   *Xbox Live
-Sony
   *Sony Network
-PC
   *MMORPG
-Other

We could probably have a Nintendo board, but not Microsoft, Sony, PC, or other boards. We can merge all those into a board called "Other Gaming".


Quote
Arts and crafts
-Art Gallery
   *Art Shop
   *Art Wars
-Comics
   *Manga   
   *Fan Comics/Manga
-Stories
   *Fanfiction
This is unnecessary. We could have one board for all of that called "Fan Creations".

Quote
Media
-Music
   *Remix Gallery
-Television
-Movies
Can all be part of one board called "Media".


I'm not saying that this will happen, but I'm throwing in my two cents on your suggestion.

Thanks for the heads up Mario.
To be honest, I did sort of rush this list, so I couldn't think ahead of time.

None the less, your the boss so do what you have to do.

:P Mario

Anyhow, I think this is a pretty good idea. When I joined, I was disappointed to find one board. I could tell by the colors all over the online users list that there were at least four hidden boards but I couldn't see them so I think we should really have more boards that regular users can see or they will quickly lose interest.

I agree that the forum is way too small, that's why I suggested this request to begin with.

At the risk of looking lazy, I'm just going to say "per SMB".

The colours actually only stand for the staffs of the different wikis (Mariowiki is red, Bulbapedia is green, Zeldawiki is blue, etc.)

I think sub-forums for each franchise that NIWA covers would probably be a good idea for the sake of organisation. Since those franchises will probably generate the most discussion :P they could be sub-forums of a general "Nintendo gaming" forum.

I demand a Mindless Junk forum and/or a Conversational Chat thread.

Every Wiki needs it's own board, and within that board, we have subjects related to that Wiki.
Nice idea, eh?  ;D

That(having sub-boards for each wiki) is certainly a possibility; although, I'm not sure if there would be enough to discuss about each wiki individually.

Then how about a board for each Wiki...
and within that board, we simply put topics and stuff related to what series that Wiki is about...?  ???

The wiki-related boards would be to discuss the wiki, not its content.
