Looking for people to keep the pet databases updated

Post by dandelions »

I'd like a few volunteers to help update the colour database. It's very simple - there's a web form where you can either add a new pet by typing it in, or look at the last one added and edit it, say if you make a typo. When you submit, it shows you what's been added, so you can see immediately if there's anything wrong with it.

Anyone willing?

I could help if you like. I play Subeta more, but I check the new updates for both sites each day. The only problem I can see is that the two websites are American and I am not, which means the updates may be a little slower than they would be if someone from the USA was updating it.

I only play Subeta nowadays, but if you're not specifically looking for people to do both sites, I'd be more than willing to help out with that part. I'm just sitting on my bum all day, doing nothing of importance, so actually doing something others may have use of would be a nice change. :p
Not American here either, though, and my sleeping shedule is hopelessly mucked up, but if that's not a problem... :)

I only play Subeta now too, but I'm around during the part of the day when Subeta seems to release most of its new colors, and I'd be willing.

I only play Neopets, and sometimes my online time is restricted (as in the last 3 weeks), but I do check the News pretty regularly if you need someone to do that side of things.

I'd be willing to help, of course. I did it before when we had the old layout, so it shouldn't be too hard for me to figure out this time, and I do spend far too much time on the internets than I should =P. I don't play Subeta anymore, but I still read the Subeta forums regularly, and could probably grab any new color posted there if nobody else is on who would have the info quicker =).

*raises hand*

Neopets-only, but I fight tooth and claw for my daily online time. If it's happening and isn't exclusively American, I know about it.

I'd love to do help, I play both Subeta and Neopets a lot, so would be more than happy to update the pet colours

Thanks, guys! I added five of you whom I thought were most likely to either update quickly or for both sites, so if I haven't PMed you, don't take it personally and if it's okay, once I've seen how this goes I might add more people :)

I'm not aware who all of the five "chosen ones" were so I am going to post this for you all to see, in hopes that you get to read it. This is more relevant to the people who update the Subeta section.

When the next colour is released on Subeta, please edit the last entry instead of adding a new one. Someone, accidentally, added the Scribble 404 Experiment to the main database, when Jazzy has a separate one for the Experiment pets, which we don't have access to I believe. As far as I know there is no way to delete a record from the database, with our "powers", so we have left the entry blank for now. If we don't edit the record Jazzy might have to do something, which I believe is quite difficult or lengthy, to delete it.

So yeah, let's not let her down and break it while she is away. ^^;

I'm one of them, and I noticed that too and made a mental note. So we're at least two fifths of the way there.

Number three here, and I got the notice ^^. If I do the next entry, I'll make sure to edit.

Except possibly E and ooga, who also have access as news posters, with me. But they probably won't update Subeta new colours, so I suppose it's a moot point.
