| |
| − | Hi, I noticed that you uploaded all images in a lossless compression format (PNG). For a website like DramaWiki a lossy compression format (i.e. [[Wikipedia:JPEG|JPEG]]) for photographic content like drama banners or artist photos will be sufficient. JPEG files compress much better which improves the accessibility of the wiki pages for our readers. Also it helps saving resources both on the server side (storage and bandwidth capacity) and the client side (bandwidth and page access time). If needed you can also check [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload|Wikipedia]] for more technical help. Thanks and happy Wiki'ing! --<b>[[User:MoerkJ|<font color="green">MoerkJ</font>]] <sup><small>[[User talk:MoerkJ|<font color="red">talk</font>]]</small></sup></b> 09:23, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

| − | == Redirects ==
| |
| − | Hi Msmall92, I've noticed that you've been moving A LOT of pages. I can see that it is an effort to conform the titles to wiki guideline. But, unless you are ready to update all the links (actor/director/etc pages) to the new title, the effort only clogs up the log and creates redirects. Your time is better spent on contributing to the content or creating new information. Thank you for your cooperation. --[[User:WaterOB|WaterOB]] ([[User talk:WaterOB|talk]]) 23:51, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

| − | ==IRIS II and Edit Pages==
| |
| − | i dont think IRIS 2 need its own page it can be include in IRIS page because IRIS 2 is continuation from IRIS with almost similar cast that would be easier for the reader, i think own page only need when the series is spin off or completely new story and characters. Its also consider if they made IRIS 3,4,etc this will prevent from link to many pages for related TV series. And i notice you edit as you like and you think that good follow dramawiki past article how they edit the page not edit as you like. --[[User:Harukasumire|Harukasumire]] ([[User talk:Harukasumire|talk]]) 02:36, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
| |
| − | :I can see where you're coming from. But I don't think they should be on the same page for a couple of reasons. One, the page with both IRIS and IRIS II looked awkward as heck. It'd be much neater to have it on two separate pages. I don't see the harm in clicking on a link that leads to IRIS II's page. Two, the cast is mostly different with only 2-3 returning characters. I will ask a staff member about his/her opinion about this matter.

So far i did quite many editing in dramawiki and from what i see now adays not many editor who edit as detail as it should be to complete the cast list, synopsis and many more information that dramawiki usually provide, i only tried my best and you can see in history since half years ago i edited and created so many articles and all of them is quite detail and not only drama that i watch or like. --[[User:Harukasumire|Harukasumire]] ([[User talk:Harukasumire|talk]]) 16:10, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

| − | :::Wait, calm down. There is nothing bad about "editing as you like". We have no strict rules just a style guide which should help new editors and which should help to create a common page formatting. Read the [[Wikipedia:WP:BOLD|"Be Bold!" policy]] on Wikipedia and you will understand better. We have drama pages with [[Rude Miss Young-Ae|eleven seasons]] or even more. So, in my opinion, it should be acceptable to have two seasons on the [[IRIS]] page. --<b>[[User:MoerkJ|<font color="green">MoerkJ</font>]] <sup><small>[[User talk:MoerkJ|<font color="red">talk</font>]]</small></sup></b> 20:34, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

| |
| − | hey i appreciated your works for created and updated OST pages but i have complain about you used title and created section which isn't related to drama, like you add discography section in an actor. Dramawiki isn't wikipedia or generasia you can list the actor contrubution to drama ost under title "TV Show Theme Songs" not Discography, complete guide [[DramaWiki:Korean Artist Article Formatting]] and also used birth year to differentiate disambigious actor name rather than profession that not related with drama beside that preferable list only awards the actor/actress won for drama/film related works. --[[User:Harukasumire|Harukasumire]] ([[User talk:Harukasumire|talk]]) 01:11, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

| − | :Okay, thank you for the reminder. I do realize that this site is focused only on dramas, however I believe I have not added unnecessary OST information pertaining to one of the actors/singers. Although I am certain that I have not, please show me where I added unnecessary information and I'll gladly remove it or edit it. However, I am willing to change it. There's one thing that's bothering me... I think that the title "TV Show Theme Songs" should be changed to something else because not all OST songs are theme songs. Perhaps, something like "OST Participation". Maybe we should ask the staff members? Again, thank you for informing me. :) --[[User:Msmall92|Msmall92]] ([[User talk:Msmall92|talk]]) 01:32, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

| − | :: and also a singer who doesn't has any really drama role and only sing for ost shouldn't has dramawiki page, why you created page for Ali, Byul, Bora when they weren't even debut as an actress yet. --[[User:Harukasumire|Harukasumire]] ([[User talk:Harukasumire|talk]]) 01:37, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

| − | == Reverted section format ==
| |
| − | Hi, I have [http://wiki.d-addicts.com/index.php?title=Bae_Suzy&diff=301108&oldid=300079 reverted] the "OST Paricipation" section for [[Bae Suzy]] to the [[DramaWiki:Korean Artist Article Formatting#TV Show Theme Songs section|usual formatting]]. We use to list the song titles an artist performs (together with the drama and year), not the plain OST pages. The song titles may link to existing song or OST pages. The way you re-formatted it gives the impression that Bae Susy was performing on the whole soundtrack and not just one song. Also the TV channels shouldn't be asigned to the songs (or OSTs) if the TV channels are not the actual producers/distributors of the soundtracks. Please stick to our usual formatting and do not introduce a new section format without making a proposal and discussing it first on [[DramaWiki talk:Korean Artist Article Formatting|the appropriate talk page]]. --<b>[[User:MoerkJ|<font color="green">MoerkJ</font>]] <sup><small>[[User talk:MoerkJ|<font color="red">talk</font>]]</small></sup></b> 00:21, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

| |
| − | :Hi, MoerkJ. Thank you for pointing me to what I should be doing. The reason why I changed the title is because "Theme Song" implies that it is the main/most commonly played theme of the respective Drama OST. For example, Don't Forget Me from Gu Family Book OST is NOT a theme song for the drama. Since I cannot think of a better title for "TV Show Theme Songs", do you have a better possible title in mind? I'm not sure where I got the TV channel formatting from - I was just copying from one artist's page and using the format. I didn't even realize that that wasn't part of the format. Thank you! --[[User:Msmall92|Msmall92]] ([[User talk:Msmall92|talk]]) 00:39, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

| − | ::Yeah, I understand what you mean. But until there is a consensus for a new section name or formatting we have to stick to the style guide. If we don't do that then it will constantly lead to changes and re-chages. And in the worst case someone just deletes the section instead of fixing it (like this [http://wiki.d-addicts.com/index.php?title=Bae_Suzy&diff=291113&oldid=290245 Bae Suzy example]).

| |
| − | :Hello Harukasumire. I think it is okay - as long as they have a long history for participating in drama OSTs. Even though you don't physically see them in dramas (usually), they are still a part of the dramas because their voices can be heard through dramas. I limited artist information related to dramas - note that I did not add the entire discography, only the OST participation.
