KHWiki talk:Project Merge

Continue or ending the project

There wasn't much input on the last roundtable so let's ask here instead. Project Merge died down, the last edit was made two months ago. While that's the case with other projects here too, time is really important on this one, because (who'd have guessed) the longer it takes the more both sites changes and the longer it will take to complete the project in return and so on.
I think the main problem is that our active userbase is too small to undertake such a big project, because comparing and evaluate the page requires (again) a lot of time, knowing the history of both articles is important too: I readded several paragraphs that were already removed here (sorry Neumannz).
So what should we do now?

1. Filter the articles with a bot that weren't or were only slightly changed? I don't know if that's possible, but it could reduce the amount of work.
2. Only browse through both pages and add missing paragraphs and information to save a lot of time?
3. End the project and hope it works out somehow.

Maybe someone has better ideas but we should at least discuss about it. --ShardofTruth 00:05, 6 May 2012 (UTC)

LightRoxas - "I'm proud to be a small part of something bigger - the people it did choose. TALK - "I am who I am, because of them." I think a big part of the lack of activity can be told as follows: KH3D was released in Japan, leading to loads of new info, in addition to new pages. The info continues to roll in as American translations for Dream Eaters are slowly released. Erry, Kryten, and Shard especially have been working on these. There's been some issues with Wikia's general stubbornness, and DE and Sox, as well as many of the other editors who also work over there, have had to deal with that. Additionally, they've been working on the roleplay. I'm not a huge edit powerhouse, but even I haven't been able to contribute my usual meager amount due to the Spring influx of homework, participation in my school's drama, and general busyness. My guess is the same is true for many other contributors. I'd say we'd be best off trying to get the bot thing to work, and if that amounts to nothing than we should just hold out until summer. Once schedules free up, we'll have more time to allot to these things. It wouldn't be a horrible idea to go for the quicker route stated in your second point, either.
