OK, announcement time.

During maintenance on June 28th we'll [u]be performing[u] a purge of unused content.

Content included in this purge:
<ul type="square">[*]Unused Images - [/list]
<ul type="square">[*]Images currently not utilized on any article page, category page, or user page within VirtueVerse.[*]Uploaded to the system prior to May of 2008.[*]Image is not currently categorized.[*]Images larger then 300K[/list]
<ul type="square">[*]Images Larger then 300K - Regardless of whether they exist on a page, any image larger then 300K will be purged. Users should heed the warning regarding uploading images larger then 150k.

Please review the list - there are quite a few on here that may be linked! At this point I'd recommend uploading a resized copy that does not exceed 150K in size.[/list]
Purges in the future will be completed on a quarterly basis for the above items during the closest regular maintenance with a notice provided.



EDIT: I checked the listings and saw content already gone... but I don't think Black Stig's been handed the keys to the database Zamboni JUST yet.



"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."

Ya mean May 27th right? :P

... actually I'm time-shifting again. This has yet to happen.

Started Serrec this morning.

Is there not a "HeroBox/VillainBox" that is gray?

There's this thing... Anti-Hero Box

Nevermind, I found it.

OK... we've started work on the Featured Article framework. So you may see a box show up on your article's talk page.

Please, resist the urge to follow the links and post comments. The sysops of the Wiki have to vet the articles for eligibility first (the whole "grammar and completeness" thing), THEN we open up to voting.

We've got a few good candidates already. I think you'll like them.

I understood everything except the middle paragraph.

Sounds exciting, though!

Would appreciate any comments or critiques. Thank you.

Very interesting character Pulcinella. Sounds like him and De-Frag would get along well.

Indeed, De-Frag, I think they could see eye to eye pretty well. Nice job on the page!

Any particular reason for this? Is server space limited?

Server space is limited, plus we've noted page display issues due to large graphics on pages (Unchainer's page went completely blank when a 2MB graphic was linked into it.)

Also consider that even though your browser will resize graphics as specified by the wiki code, the full file has to be transmitted... which results in higher bandwidth fees, especially for popular pages. Also the system has to index all the files in the database (what links where, page histories, etc) and files that aren't used will just take up space there too.

I have to say the footnotes are the best part of Jack Slayton's VV page.
