Dated Images category
Hi! Nice work on the dated images category starting... In my experience with wikis, there needs to be a... 'critical mass' of usage for stuff like that before it gets commonly used. I'll try to get the Canberra images categorised appropriately over the weekend, any work you want to put in to categorise other images en-masse would be appreciated. Thanks! :) --Nemo 04:06, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- Heh, I was trying to get your attention on the IRC channel -- is this appropriate? Would it be better to do it as Category:YYYY-MM-DD in anticipation of something other than media being in the category? --Tapin 04:07, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- I'm at a training course for work... no irc access, and work-day geohash wiki access for this week only! :(
- Anyway, you'll notice I re-categorised your image to "Meetup on 2008-06-04". This makes most sense at the moment. If a media-specific category is needed later I think it can be handled at that time. For now, reducing categorisation overload is more important (IMHO, I'm just a user here too, albiet a very active one at the moment :) --Nemo 04:14, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- Works for me. The rest of my 2008-06-04 pics are categorized.. I'll start working my way back and adding categorization. --Tapin 04:15, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- Cool. The only further comment I think I can make is that for edits which are only "added date category", I'd mark it as a minor edit, and add a simple summary comment like that. (otherwise you get completists like me wanting to check the history of every non-commented edit to see what was done! Makes it easier to filter the RecentChanges basically :) Thanks muchly for the effort on this :) --Nemo 04:21, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
