_r.u.s.s. | well, i meant, with the updates made on the OW list there could be who made the update info and what is the source, so it could get easeier to check in a future |

The Fifth Horseman | Now that's a different idea. Turing the current list into a Wiki sort of thing would have some distinct advantages, but would they outweigh all the disadvantages? |

Mighty Midget | Yes, but how will that help us keeping the OWL updated? |
24-07-2007 02:21 PM | |
_r.u.s.s. | an example: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...;action=history |

Maybe something Sebatianos suggested: A report button visible to long term members, mods and admins (if they have no access to the OWL editing) on the game pages. I didn't get the "update history" idea. Russ, could you explain that one? |

_r.u.s.s. | or there could be 'update history' with each game like on wikipedia, with an info "what, when, who, source" |

Reporting helps a lot! But I don't know if the mods/admins can all modify the OWL. I know updaters can. Maybe a SOLD button (like the report button) could help, if it would notify all the people who can acctually change the OWL. |

Don't worry, when I'm checking games I always use different resources, Ow list is important for information about games, we all know that OW can't check if a game is sold out or still sold and how many copies in stock there are (we have to search a lot) The only problem is that sometimes a game is not on the database, and me and Luchsen have to find info on wiki or mobygames. |

I've contacted Kosta on the subject a while back, but didn't get the access permissions yet. Perhaps he's busy at the moment. I think that in regards to the upcoming site upgrade the OW List could use a small addition, that being an automatic date stamp showing when the entry has last been updated / it's accuracy verified. That, and perhaps a field to list the number of copies reported by the store? It's obvious that after a year, 352 copies still wouldn't get all sold out, but if the store only had 3-4 copies, some attention may be in order. |
