So, I use the suggest edit form quite a lot, and I’m doing some mod work on it. As many of you do. I believe ever since @shauny add Actors, there have been an increase in suggestions form submitted?
It’s no surprise sometines it takes a long time for my suggestions to get updated. There’s life other than Doctor Who. (!) But I don’t always remember to check — I make so many of them! Maybe some of them got denied but I’ve got no way to know. Therefore, I’m creating this little corner to bully other mods to get on to approve my audio runtime suggestions you know, talk about stuff like how to make Overview and Suggest Edits work better, why you denied someone’s suggestions, give a heads up to the mods when you accidentally submitted something wrong etc.
I’ve been trying to edit the runtime of every audio I finish, as there are a lot of them have a rough number that @shauny guessed. Mainly 30-minutes-yet-never-quite-so-precise Main Range audios and some others with behind-the-scenes stuff (interviews) counted in the audio runtime. Not having the exact runtime bugs me, since it affect this lovely chart:
One trouble I have when looking at edits is that I often have no idea if they are actually right or not. I generally approve the ones I’m sure of or can verify, but I really don’t know a lot of the Big Finish audios and books…
I approve edits several times a day (mostly yours, haha) and add edits on stories I complete. I’m also picky about getting the runtimes correct!
Another thing that annoys me a little is bot being able to add characters and actors that are missing. It’s a minor thing, I know but I’d like to have the database as complete as possible.
Well, I trust that @AlfieSigma and others suggesting edits have their runtimes and pages right, so I can verify them. The other stuff is pretty easy to verify.
That’s part of the problem - most of the time this stuff is wrong on the site because it was wrong or missing on TARDIS Wiki so there’s no way to verify stuff like page count and runtime.
I just assume everyone is checking and so generally approve everything.
I believe 99 is the max the number will go up to. Wow that’s a lot!!
I understand but at the moment it requires more access than I can give to add characters and actors.
