too-long page repair

Go To

Kory: i will need to do some more testing to see if the 500KB should be lowered even more but either way everyone can relax because the database will not crash or implode in anyway due to page size so splitting pages isn't a huge priority and is just more of a suggestion. For pages that actually load slow, splitting the pages will help slower internet users navigate these pages better.

     Eddie's old post 
Looks like we have a big page lock coming. Big in the sense of many pages and big in the sense that the pages to be locked are too big.

It looks like pages over 500,000 characters (html formatted, that is) are crashing the server when someone tries to edit them. programmer's whine 

They need to be fixed, anyway. Way too big for one page. They need to be broken up into subpages of a reasonable size.

I'm trying to get better about communicating before big changes, so we'll let this one run for a while before taking the action. The server crashes do come under the heading of 'urgent', though.

another programmer's thing

Just moved the bosses at ThatOneBoss.Genshin Impact, but there's still a long way to go. YMMV.Genshin Impact is at 290k chars now.

It's not triggering the warning suggestion anymore, though.

Oh, I've just removed it from the list then.

I still haven't acted on Characters.Genshin Impact Sumeru. What do you think about 5x[up]?

Real-Life Relative is getting long enough to warn and should have subpages.

Suggest that Anime, Films, Live Action TV, Video Games, and Western Animation be split off. Films especially as it already had what could be two folders underneath.

I focus on obscure 1990s or graphic Middle Grade Literature novels and dolls. (She or zie, not they.)

Unsure if we're already aware of this, but Developer's Foresight is displaying a blue warning. (I assume the red warning was phased out?)

Gargoyles Antagonists is giving the warning. I was thinking separating Xanatos Enterprises section into its own page. Thoughts?

I got Films of the 1980s to no longer have the warning by removing the notes next to various entries. Quite a lot of them were just quotes, Fan Myopia, Gushing, or bashing.

Wake-Up Call Boss got the warning. The RPG folder seems like the largest one by far; perhaps that can be made separate.

I'm also unsure about the non-gaming examples section...I can see it if it were talking about in-universe games, but most of them feel more like a Starter Villain, Threshold Guardians, or Wake-Up Call, which are separate tropes, and others feel more like a shoehorn.

Just a reminder that pages that have warnings should be on Overly Long Pages, and also that Overly Long Pages has piled up quite a backlog.

Speculative Fiction Tropes is too-long now. Can we cut the alphabetical index and just use the sub-indicies?

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time needs to be split.

And so does still The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (which I brought up in a previous post but nobody gave me the OK to do the split).
