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

Characters.MobileSuitGundam00 is done.

I got a question, can we go and edit out the quadruple and pentaruple *'s from the Just Bugs Me pages and turn them into triple *'s?

[up][up] I would imagine so.

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

TearJerker.Anime is going to prove to be a multi-phase project for me. I managed to clear out enough to get the page below the 400k threshold with a little bit of breathing room for now. I will continue to trim it down as I can.

So can we as editors create new namespaces, or do we have to ask Fast Eddie to do that? I want to help with this, but don't know if just adding links like

will do it without some sort of go ahead from on high.

[up] We can do it for this project. Fast Eddie has basically asked us to at least for the pages in question.

In that case, the Global Guardians PBEM Universe is done.

I'll split Characters.TheKingOfFightersTheOrochiSaga.

edit: The page has been split into "below the threshold" chunks for now. I have put notes on the discussion page for fans of the series to weigh in on how they feel the pages would best be further split. I will be keeping an eye on these to make sure they don't become a problem again in the meantime.

Re new namespaces: There's never been any technical restriction on editors starting a name space, and the only administrative restrictions are that anything involving reorganizing lots of pages shouldn't be done without discussion.

Could we get another list update, Eddie?

I've dealt with WMG.Time Lord. Not sure how to deal with the "Other" though. Mostly it is just unsorted stuff mixed with total bollocks.
