Is Lion & Pen Gone For Good?

Always glad to hear of volunteers ...

 

They are the backbone of the community.

Everyone, literally everyone here, unless we're getting paid to do it, is a volunteer.

Those stepping up to do the work are especially appreciated. ;-)

 

But yes, you are correct, and we've sincerely appreciated the work you have already donated.

Duplicating or moving would be a nightmare. Better to use a special tag instead, which could be used to search.

 

The special tag I would suggest would be a link - to either a post or a thread of interest.

 

An example might be the 'Noteworthy Ink Topics' thread as seen here: Noteworthy Ink Topics. As you can see Ann has created a sort of index for posts in three categories... similar to the idea expressed by Toasterpastry in the post a few posts back...

 

Although not quite as nice as a completely new, duplicated and edited thread on a particular pen, it is nearly as nice, and should make research much easier for those following that line of investigation.

Doesn't the IP.Board software allow for promotion of a thread to an article?

 

Could this be utilized to tag topic specific, data rich, QC threads to a higher level?

I agree with TP: MYU's review index is one of the most useful features in FPN. >200.000 views testify this fact. If we manage to create something similar for the history posts, that would be a big step up. It will be a lengthy and somewhat difficult job, especially for the big brands, but to select the most relevant topics for each category and to have them linked from a single page will allow for an easy start point for any research.
