The Wiki needs you!

[Sydneyfan]

The TBY Wiki is a great RA resource, but keeping it updated requires a considerable amount of work. At the moment, a couple of people (mainly Rob) are doing the bulk of that work.

It would be great if we could get some volunteers willing to help keep the Wiki updated on a roster basis. It wouldn't require much time or effort if we get a decent number of people to sign up and share the workload.

So, if you'd like to be a Wiki volunteer, please put your name down here and earn your special place in heaven today. :upyours

foggy (1994, 1995, 1996)

Yay, praise the wiki for getting me into heaven! :banana

[JackStark211]

what would i be doing, i might be down for the task?

[Sydneyfan]

what would i be doing, i might be down for the task?

Just updating the tour info (setlists etc) when it was your turn. If new album info etc comes out, then that will need to be added as well.

Its simple to do, doesn't take too long, and we can answer any questions you might have.

[JackStark211]

put me on the list, i don't have much else to do right now anyhow.

[Sydneyfan]

Excellent, thanks Jack. :upyours

[blueone]

Put me on the list, but I will be asking a lot of questions, if you don't mind of course. :P

[Starlite]

I would volunteer, except I'm still working on filling in the set lists from previous years' shows ;)

[maleneee]

I think I could do that, if you need more people?

[Starlite]

I think I could do that, if you need more people?

Yes, please! :)
I'm working on 2006. It would be great if you could get another year on it's way.

[maleneee]

Ok, just give me a year and I'll get started on it:)

[Starlite]

Whichever year you want.

[maleneee]

I'll take 2005 then. Do you just get the setlists from answeringbell?

[Starlite]

Yes, I'm pretty sure Rob's credited them somewhere on the Wiki. Use an existing set list as a template and then it's easy to copy and paste.

[JackStark211]

Put me on the list, but I will be asking a lot of questions, if you don't mind of course. :P



same here. ;)

[Quincy]

It's just not in me to be useful.

[hildegoat]

Count me in. Just let me know what you'd like me to do.

[Starlite]

Count me in. Just let me know what you'd like me to do.

Thanks, Matt :)
Could you please help fill in the older set lists? Choose a year. (I'm working on 2006 and Malene's doing 2005.)

[hildegoat]

No problemo. I'll work on it tonight.

[FrigidRoses]

I'll help out. I'm not really interested in the whole heaven thing though. :)

[Faded Rose]

I'm not big on regular commitment but if there's a really simple task I'll try. I may need a lot of support but I'll do my best.

[SkortBrun]

I'd be down with doing the 2003 set lists if no one else has already called them.

[FrigidRoses]

I'm down for doing whatever you tell me. Just yell and I'll get on it.

[Rob]

Just pick a year :)

[foggy]

I'll do 1994, 1995, and 1996.

[Rob]

:upyours :upyours :upyours

[maleneee]

I'm having troubles with a couple of shows that are on the same date (the world cafe air date plus the Columbus show). The setlist for the world cafe recording shows up on the Columbus show too. Anyone know how I can fix that?

I fixed it, each page needs its own unique title. I tacked on Philly and Columbus respectively for ya

[JackStark211]

anyonne doing 2007?

[Rob]

anyonne doing 2007?
I have been, I just need to update last night's show.

[maleneee]

ok great, I'll get started on the Columbus show then.

[JackStark211]

[Rob]

http://www.tobeyoung.org/wiki/index.php/2007

[FrigidRoses]

How about 04?

[Rob]

How about 04?
all yours!

[FrigidRoses]

Nice.

[ewok.online]

i'll take '97.
answeringbell, here i come.

[maleneee]

Starlite, is it ok if I add a picture to one of the 2006 dates?

[Rob]

Starlite, is it ok if I add a picture to one of the 2006 dates?
I don't think permission should be needed :)

[Faded Rose]

Is there a place on the Wiki for reviews/interviews/points of interest? If so, where is it? If not, is the Wiki the right place?

[Rob]

I think they'd belong right on the song, album, or show page itself

[Faded Rose]

So is it worth considering? Something short and hopefully positive?

[Rob]

So is it worth considering? Something short and hopefully positive?
doesn't need to be positive...just honest...the wiki can have it all

[Faded Rose]

OK - I'll try and dig some out. Can I just create another page on the relevant show page and cut and paste reviews with date/reviewer etc? Sorry to be so dense. I'd like to help and this should be within my capabilities.

[Rob]

I think it should just go on the show page itself with a heading. Kind of like this extra information on the Easy Tiger page

http://www.tobeyoung.org/wiki/index.php/Easy_Tiger

[Faded Rose]

OK - I'll see if I have anything to add tomorrow.

[ewok.online]

if anyone would be kind enough to look at the couple 1997 shows i've gotten done and tell me how fucked up/okay it is, i would appreciate it.

[Rob]

not bad...the songs should be linked with [[ ]] surrounding them, or you could highlight the song and click on the internal link button

[Sydneyfan]

Sadly, it looks like there is nothing left for me to do. Oh no. :lol

*files nails*

[JackStark211]

looks good to me.



Rob, do you need help with 2007? It looks up to date so I really don't know what I could do.

[JackStark211]

*files nails*



same here

[Rob]

looks good to me.

I don't have all the newest dates added...you could add those in, otherwise I'd get to it later

[ewok.online]

riiiight. okay.
thanks, man.

[Rob]

Lots of songs need lyrics :)

[JackStark211]

do you all think the Live at Avatar Studios should be added to the studio sessions page??

[foggy]

Sadly, it looks like there is nothing left for me to do. Oh no. :lol

*files nails*

I don't think anyone is doing 1998, are they? Or 1999 or 2000 for that matter. Unless I missed it.

[Rob]

do you all think the Live at Avatar Studios should be added to the studio sessions page??
sure, why not

[Sydneyfan]

I don't think anyone is doing 1998, are they? Or 1999 for that matter. Unless I missed it.

Oh.

:downyours :downyours

[foggy]

Oh.

:downyours :downyours

Get yer butt moving, C. :whip

[Sydneyfan]

Get yer butt moving, C. :whip

My Dad always told me to never argue with a woman with professional whipping skills.

I'll do 1998 then.

[foggy]

My Dad always told me to never argue with a woman with professional whipping skills.


Your Dad is very wise. :pimp

[Sydneyfan]

Your Dad is very wise. :pimp

And really, really obedient to my mother. :upyours

[hildegoat]

I'll do 2002.

[Sydneyfan]

I'll do 2002.

:upyours

[Faded Rose]

I've put a couple of reviews on Brown Theatre and Somerville show. I tried to find ones that gave some idea of what the show was like and wasn't too biased and may be interesting to read when we've all forgotten that particular show. Any complaints or comments for improvement? I don't think I've infringed anyone's copyright.

[Tim Simmons]

I think this would be a great addition to the individual albums page.

http://www.tobeyoung.org/showpost.php?p=281077&postcount=29

Do we want to include label, format and catalog info too? Or is that too much?

yes i would like it all

[Tim Simmons]

Robs, I tried it, but I think I messed it up, but I think the So Alive 7" should be under the So Alive single, kinda like how the Wonderwall CD2/7" is under Wonderwall CD1

[blueone]

Ok, so I've put my name down (ages ago). Anything that needs doing?

[Tim Simmons]

I've updated all of the lyrics for the b-sides and bonus tracks (and added them where they were missing).

Except "I wanna get high" form the California 2x7". I need to listen to that again.

We need to put some big work into the Whiskeytown discography page.

But this is looking great. Great job all.

[Tim Simmons]

Ok, so I've put my name down (ages ago). Anything that needs doing?

Whiskeytown Discography needs some work (adding tracks and lyrics to EPs and singles)


Or Solo catalog notes (Chart positions, Catalog Numbers and formats).

Or tour info where it is missing.

[blueone]

I'll help on the Whiskeytown discography.

[Tim Simmons]

I'll keep cracking on the Solo Discography.

[Tim Simmons]

Also, I re-wrote the Easy Tiger portion of the bio (changed it from an anticipation of release write up, to post release write up).

Let me know what you think / Change what sucks.

[maleneee]

I fixed it, each page needs its own unique title. I tacked on Philly and Columbus respectively for ya

Could you fix the two 06/08/05 shows too? It needs a separate one for the Whiskeytown show.
