Title: Report sites to get deleted?
Post by: Veilor on January 24, 2014, 03:28:45 pm
How do we go about that? I found that someone had added http://vgcollect.com/item/45570 & http://vgcollect.com/item/47050 to the database, and first one being a mobile game and other one being a website/service, it would be great to know how those things should get reported  :)

You did the right thing to post it here as us admins can delete or merge listing.

Ideally we'd look into what edits we can make or if we can merge it with another item. It doesn't look like we can do either of those with these items so we can just delete em.

Great, but should there be a dedicated thread for reporting such things or just create threads as we find them?

Also found these:
http://vgcollect.com/item/49672 (not coming to ps3)
http://vgcollect.com/item/18497 (it became FF XV)

For now I'd say a new thread. I think it's easier for us to keep track of them that way. The other threads that become 20+ pages long end up being a bit hard to track.

This.

In case you didn't know, though - we *DO* already have a dedicated thread for reporting "Dupes" (multiple entries of the same item) only.

AND...

...Welcome to VGCollect  ;D

I noticed that with the dupe thread, but that can easily be manageable by replying with something like "done these" or anything of the like and then just work with links from that point each time. In any case, some info on how page deletion works would be good. I know Giant Bomb has new thread for new deletions and then they are just locked when done (with a reply ofc). Maybe that perhaps?

Well dupes isn't the same as reporting pages to be deleted :P And thanks!
