User blog:Maopyon/Deadline to source material.

Hi guys. Its that one person who complains about sourcing the most.

I would like to say that almost a year ago (July 30, 2013), I have made a complaint on how we never source material and it makes this wiki look unreliable. Back in December, I made an urgent demand for this wiki to use references (and it kinda worked).

Its almost a year since my original proposal and almost 6 months since the page warnings. One f our biggest complaints outside the wiki is still the trivia. This got my attention when a user complaint how ever member page (except Katsuta Rina) has too much useless and/or outdated trivia. Its true though. Some of the trivia are not as significant as others. I did replied that there are some users (not going to say any names) who are defensive about trivia. They undo trivia other users thought was unnecessary. Someone made a proposal for a individual member trivia pages. I thought it was a great idea because everyone wins. Thinking that those anti-trivia don't have to see "useless" trivia and those who are dedicated to trivia can go to the separate page and add as much as they like. It seems that both sides rejected the idea.

If I get Joshua's approval, I would like to say that any the deadline to put citations on the ones with the warnings is June 30, 2013 at 11:59pm (PST). Any suspicious and useless material that is not sourced can be deleted any cannot be undone. Any undone pages will automatically be reverted (by the only rollbacker or any admin) if the person does not source the material.

I feel like this will attack the users who love trivia, but this is H!P wiki. We should be able to help newer fans get to know about the members and groups. Me and a couple of users want to make this wiki reliable.... and only way to keep it that way is to properly source material. It may seem like the deadline is close, but the pages had a 6-month warning for months already. Sourcing will mainly be concentrated in member pages and group pages.

Any questions, suggestions, complaints, etc. about current or future events should be posted in this blog post.
