Wick Migration

Go To

Some tropers (myself included) have been moving works from the Main/ namespace to the appropriate namespace. Unfortunately, some of these moves were done without the wicks being corrected to reflect the new namespaces.

There are more wicks than any one person could handle, so I'm posting here in hopes of getting help. Here is a list of pages that have been moved and need their wicks corrected. (Let me know if you spot any others, and I'll add them to the list.)

EDIT: The list has been moved to Administrivia.Wick Namespace Migration.

Add completed moves in Completed Namespace Migrations.

Dolby Labratories needs not only namespacing, but also a typo fix.

Done.

I moved Meduka Meguca over to the WebVideo/ namespace and moved all wicks. The Main/ page doesn't have any inbound links.

Sky Does Minecraft is a Let's Play series in the main namespace.

I would've tried myself, and get the information on how to do it, but I'm kinda nervous.

How to Move a Page - is this what you are looking for?

Thanks.

I'm now nervous about following the instructions in the first post. :|

Has someone time available to move the pages created by megahello (List) to the right namespace and cutlist the Main/ pages? I started off a bit but my connection is too slow to to that in the time I have available.

I'm on it.

Recap pages should have the episode name after the episode number, if I remember correctly.

Edit: Found that the Code Lyoko recap pages were moved to the correct namespace without a title. There's actually a whole index of them without a title. I've already created Recap.Code Lyoko S 1 E 1 Teddygozilla, but I may have to stop until it is clearer what should be done.

Generally, it's preferred to have the title in the page name.

It looks like more have been made since I last checked.

More of title-less pages? Yeah, I didn't tell that to the person I messaged.

Teddygozilla is the official title. It has to do with French pronunciation rules or such, or worse, a Tyop on the Cover.

Amazing Nurse Nanako doesn't have a page yet, but I moved all the wicks to the Anime/ namespace.

Mars Needs Moms needs to be in "WesternAnimation/".

Teen Beach Movie is not a miniseries, so it should be on "Film/".

Certainly not putting these here because of my ban.

I'm not LGBT. I just think Rain's really cool. Apologies if my humor gets too painful.

The main Harry Potter wicks have all been moved. This should be nice for a whole day before new wicks pop up. evil grin

Wow, how many hundreds was that? Good work!

And yes, now we can settle to playing whack-a-mole with the new wicks. XD

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

[up]I can hardly remember through the cobwebs...but I think it was 2000-something that wasn't moved. But I'm awesome at Whack-a-Mole smile

Should This Troper be namespaced, or first renamed in the same vein as X Just X was?

I am asking here because I do not want to run into an admin veto in case I make a TRS topic on this.

By the nature of misuse, new links would be made in Main/ anyway.

Welcome To Night Vale belongs in the Podcast namespace, but I'm not confident in my ability to correctly move it myself due to short-term memory issues.

Someone already took care of Welcome To Night Vale.

A question of mine: If I move Sky Does Minecraft to LetsPlay.Sky Does Minecraft (A close inspection of the channel makes me think it's a Let's Play), should it get a Main/ redirect?

Trying to work on the wicks for individual Super Sentai works right now...

Got a few completed so far. Additional pitch-ins will be much appreciated.

I now go by Graf von Tirol.

Moved Circus Days to Circus Days. One related link redirected.

Okay, can I have a little reminder of the policy with Main/ redirects currently?

I know they're not to be created, that's for sure, and that those with lots of inbound links should stay.

Now, is a Main/ redirect for a work with 0 wicks and 0 inbounds fair game to be cutlisted?
