Network question


MAT13 posted 3 years ago

Hi David, I've recently asked about creating a Network that may address some things that haven't been mentioned in the past, and as an admin and coder you could probably provide a better answer as to how those things should be handled or if something should first be done to properly support it, so if possible, could you check this forum post and add your answer. Thank you.

Is Jan around much these days?

Janner posted 4 years ago

Hi David,

I sent @Jan I private message a couple of days ago, and have not had a reply.  Is he still active?

Thanks


david posted 4 years ago

He is, but he's pretty busy at the moment so it might take a while before he gets back to you. Something anyone else can help with?

Janner posted 4 years ago

Yes please.

Basically, I wanted to take advantage of the 50% off premium last Black Friday/Cyber Monday.  Jan looked at my account, but unfortunately couldn't adjust my subscription payment because I had cancelled my subscription renewal - I changed the email address of my paypal account and was worried that the change would not be picked up, so I cancelled but intended to renew manually when the time came, which is now.

Jan kindly offered me a 50% off discount coupon if I pinged him when my premium subscription expired.

(I can give you the link to the conversation that we had if you want to PM me).

Thanks

Janner

So is there anyone else to take care of this, or do I need to wait for Jan to become available?

Contributor Access

Adnaan posted 5 years ago

Hi David,

Four years ago I was a huge contributor and loved adding data to the website when there was none. Alot has changed since then I guess. I became a lowly user after a while, but since I have some downtime right now, was wondering if I could just get the contributor tag again.

Hi adnaan,

For questions such as these, please use the forums as it'll be read by the appropriate people :)

Mis-characterizizing

Gadfly posted 6 years ago

Is there a way to (relatively) easily fix a mess such as this?

https://www.tvmaze.com/characters/271955/doctor-who-soldier

Needless to say, eight different actors didn't play the same character, "Soldier", over a 12-year period and 5+ different serials. The contributor(s) who entered them (who I didn't check via the edit log) presumably didn't know that each soldier is a different character and should be treated as such.

Short of manually going in and fixing them, I don't know of a way. And when it comes to generic character names like this, there are potentially hundreds of misnamed entries for Doctor Who. I fixed another one, for the character(s) "Robot", last night.

Thanks!

Yeah, that doesn't look right :-/ I don't currently have an automated way to fix this though. If it turns out to be a very common & recurring issue, I could work on that.
