Roundtables are meetings held on the #KHWiki-noticeboard IRC channel every 1st Saturday of the month at 9:00pm Wiki Time (UTC 0) (if the meeting is cancelled, or cannot be held due to an inadequate amount of staff, the meeting will be moved to the second Saturday of the month, at 9:00pm Wiki Time). These meetings are to discuss the current situation and the future of our Wiki. Any user is invited to the meetings. If you have any questions, or want to point out a problem about the wiki, you can come and be listened to. Below are the logs and summaries for the meetings already held:

Meeting 1, March 05, 2011 Summary[1]

  • Copyleft - copying/pasting from khwiki.net -> khwikia must have permission from this wiki.
  • Old wiki will link back to the new wiki.
  • Affiliates should link to the new wiki.
  • No affiliation to the old wikia
  • Monaco is needed
  • A small group of users should keep the community portal/Traverse Town updated

Meeting 2, March 06, 2011 Summary [2]

  • Images auditing should be done as following:
  1. {{delete}} template for fanart images and duplicated images.
  2. {{bad name}} template for images that don't follow the naming standards.
  3. {{betterpic}} template for non-.png or non-animated.gif images.
  • Article auditing should be as the following:
  1. Compare articles from both wikis by coping & pasting the Wikia article to the Wiki one and clicking "Show Changes"
  2. If any change is spotted, they should be added in selectively based on what looks appropriate.

  • Featured Article - Dragoon
  • Card articles;
  1. Card: space will not be deleted, consolidated, or added into mainspace.
  • Heartless Manufactory;
  1. Its purpose is to get users with issues with each other to work together so that they understand the other users are indeed useful.
  2. Serious disputes or arguments impacting the wiki (edit wars) - staff get involved
  3. Less serious - staff involvement optional.
  • Auditing progress
  1. Cardspace not needed
  2. Userspace not needed
  3. Mainspace almost done

  • Featured Media
    • Nominated media may not have a watermark
    • Featured Media will now be changed more than once a month, every ten days.
  • The audit still has a long way to go before completion. Work on the imagespace needs to be stepped up, and work on the mainspace must continue as usual.
  • Users who do not contribute much in the Heartless Manufactory task given to them will not have their warning removed until they do legitimate work.
  • Users may begin working on ideas for redesigning the main page.
  • All off- site accounts must be used for official wiki business.

  • Status on image renovation: The filespace needs a large amount of work, mainly on moving pages to their correct names, purging jpgs, and transpareticisng.
  • Orphaned pages: Database problem, may need Porple's help. Apart from that, work is to be started on that.
  • Unadmining of members and new group for delete/move rights: Neumannz will contact Kryten for new group.
  • Moving roundtable to a new date: New forum thread to be made to make final forum decision.

Meeting 7, September 03, 2011 Agenda

  1. Discuss what defines a staff member as "active", because a lot of the staffers under active really aren't. KRCCFNF is tired of being STEPPED ON. 03:21, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
  2. Discuss policy regarding non-official images in the specific case of walkthroughs. The file in question that brought this to light is my map for Days Mission 18. Basically, what is the impact, on policy, given the instructive purpose of the image? -- Sorceror Nobody, 23:14, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
  3. What needs to be done for getting Walkthrough space going
  4. New forum, Ansem's Computer (as per Forum:One More Forum)
  5. Image renovation progress (covering transparencies and maybe new renders?)

Any user can add to the agenda to be covered at the next meeting. Whether you are present at the meeting or not, the resulting discussion highlights will be included in the summary.
