# Mar 12th 2009, 09:44 jperras fyi, I'm going on a retro-active bakery 1.0 article purge. all those unworthy will be given the chance to improve their codez, or will be unpublished.
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:43 alkemann yes
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:43 ADmad err the earlier statement isnt well formed but i think you get the idea
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:42 ADmad so the lowering of bar is taken care of
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:42 ADmad the reason articles of unacceptable quality is a single moderation approves which wont be the case in 2.0... so even if say you hold very high standards and vote 2 for it others might vote 4 and its published :)
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:40 alkemann it can tie in to the social aspekt of community owned article nicely
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:39 alkemann yes, but this added feature is a result of the wishes of .. well having a lower bar than what you and I might want for authors contribution, but also making an effort to increase quality
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:38 ADmad *so if it
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:38 ADmad plus we already have a system of an article getting particular amounts of votes to get published... so i it isnt good enough i wouldnt vote for it any way
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:37 alkemann i agree, but..
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:37 ADmad ok.. personally i would prefer a article to be improved to an acceptable level and then simply published.. many times the avg. reader isnt smart enough to properly interpret the markers..
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:35 alkemann thats a use case. lets say an article has valuable ideas, but the author hasnt expressed them well or implemented it good. it could be published as inspiration to others, but marked properly so people doesnt take it as canon
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:33 ADmad alkemann: so a not so nice article is published but with markers for users to see
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:32 ADmad hmmm
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:32 alkemann with broader uses and implications
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:32 alkemann well. look at it as a tool for moderators to comment on what an author needs to improve on
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:30 ADmad ok got it but dont understand how exactly it relates to moderation
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:29 alkemann i mean that u can tag an article as deprecated, but using the word marker instead of tag since we have a concept for tags
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:28 ADmad then can you please clarify what are "markers" ?
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:28 alkemann ok.. "no"
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:28 ADmad i am confused.. isnt there a yes/no answer to my question :)
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:27 alkemann i mean tags, but not to be confused with Tags
# Mar 12th 2009, 09:26 ADmad alkemann: " a set of "markers" .." you mean content pages describing best practices and so on ?

# Mar 11th 2009, 11:17 AD7six well, at least I didn't say anything I wouldn't have said to him in person
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:16 ADmad hmm.. me thinks d1rk is the same Dirk
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:11 AD7six why would you modify your db for a one-off form process
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:10 AD7six I dislike the "what a wrong approach, bad idea, noise [because I have some weird design ideas]" sentiment
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:09 ADmad he seems to be a security freak.. same way ionas was suggesting passing of the fieldList param to be made compulsary
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:08 ADmad heh
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:08 AD7six they're all from dirk with a bee in his bonnet
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:07 jperras wow, how can there be so many comments on such a simple thing
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:06 _nate_ ACTION is looking...
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:04 AD7six like the comments :)
# Mar 11th 2009, 11:03 ADmad _nate_: teknoid stole your snippet about blacklist and made a post :) http://teknoid.wordpress.com/2009/03/11/blacklist-your-model-fields-for-save/
# Mar 11th 2009, 10:14 alkemann well im gonna go wish my grandma a happy birthday. laters :)
# Mar 11th 2009, 10:02 AD7six I only found out when replies showed up including mariano_iglesias's messages after my pm
# Mar 11th 2009, 10:02 AD7six I think I was pm-ing users that mariano had already contacted previously
# Mar 11th 2009, 10:02 jperras just to prevent the same author from being bombarded by several moderators at the same time
# Mar 11th 2009, 10:02 jperras ok
# Mar 11th 2009, 10:02 AD7six I think it didn't used to but got fixed jperras
