| *That's my favorite too--[[User:Kottr|Kottr]] 22:41, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

| *Seconded. --[[User:Iulianna|Iulianna]], who needs to find her wiki cheatsheet somewhere. 4/18/2008, 12:44pm (PDT)

| *Thirded. --[[User:Ndefoix|Natalya]] who probably could have gotten away with Natalya as her user name doh.
| |
| *I enabled the name on the wiki as Compendium Cadis (CaidWiki). For reference, the old names we were voting on were: Caidopedia, Compendium Caidis, Caidis Historia, WiCaidPedia, Caidipedia. --[[User:Kottr|Kottr]] 18:35, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

| == Date and Time ==
| |
| After much discussion with Natalya and Eowyn we need to figure out the standard for how we date and arrange things.
| |
|
| |
| Suggested date displays are:
| |
| *yyyy/mm/dd - good for sorting, is how all the herald's stuff is formatted
| |
| *mm/dd/yyyy - mostly standard way of displaying stuff on web sites.
| |
|
| |
| Chronigical listings for award listing, officer tenures, etc
| |
| *Newest to oldest
| |
| *Oldest to Newest
| |
|

| Please making your comments known. Thanks! --[[User:Kottr|Kottr]] 13:38, 27 April 2008 (PDT)

| Wiki isn't all that great for sorted lists, so I'd vote for the more human-friendly 'mm/dd/yyyy' format for dates and leave sortable database stuff like the OP, etc. to better-suited applications. I vote newest to oldest for award lists, and am agnostic regarding officer tenures. --[[User:Lorenz|Lorenz]] 14:50, 27 April 2008 (PDT)

| I tend to agree that since we are not spending a lot of time making the computer sort stuff, we don't need to make it easy for the computer. But I'd like to throw in a third option: use the month name instead of the month number.
| |
| * I seem to perennially confuse myself - is month 08 July or August? Gotta think a minute.
| |
| * Month names are medieval, and the order of the months is fixed, but which one month is month 1 changed in our period. And for awhile, folks started years in March, and gov't started in January (that's why you get those slash years given in chronologies). I realize we are not following medieval precedent in confusing things for no reason, but we can use the historical non-confusing thing, which is month names. And even though all my historical records are kept oldest to newest (and thus I'd need to reverse them), it is probably slightly less confusing to list all those tenures etc. starting from now, and going back in time. *sigh* --[[User:EowynA|EowynA]] 17:46, 27 April 2008 (PDT)
