Something to keep int he Back of your minds

I've seen some editors moving pages to adjust the titles to the current name of the institutions. I would prefer only doing that as a last resort.

However, that does not mean we are stuck with the older or lesser names. Instead all you need to do is create a redirect. What that means is that you create a new page with the new name then redirect (#REDIRECT [[older page name]]) the new page to the old page. That is a much better way because then you can create a couple different redirects to the same page, especially for articles/institutions that have more then one name it's known by. That way if someone types in the name whether current or older, they'll be directed to the current page. Plus, it is much easier to do that. This is another reason why I like the new software over the older is because it is much easier to do this. M-Explorer 14:21, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Maryland Transfer Completed

I'm done moving the Maryland database from the old site. Thomasp94 19:46, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

That's great. I believe that the UK stuff still needs to be transferred over, plus we need to check to see if we missed other states. Also, we need to make sure that accessory pages like the different building plans have been transferred over too. M-Explorer 22:07, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

I can start at the bottom of the UK list & meet you in the middle if you want.Squad546 05:04, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Sounds like a plan to me. M-Explorer 10:11, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

I will go over all the building plan pages then. I was working on the cottage plan page yesterday anyway. Thomasp94 13:28, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Urban Exploring

I know in private conversations we discussed the new AP:IIP policy and Urban Exploring. It was brought up that maybe we should expand it or create another policy concerning UE. What are your thoughts. Is that policy enough, should we expand it, or should we create another policy specifically for UE? What do you guys think? M-Explorer 13:36, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

More Boards?

Should there be more boards set up, like a remembrance board or something like that? Is there something I didn't think of? Should we expand on existing boards here? Thoughts? M-Explorer 13:39, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Perhaps a section for regional discussion like the old forum? Also I liked the former employee/patient topic.Squad546 04:22, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Most definitely we should have a former employee/patient board. Yet, as far as regional boards, my question is how much did we use most of them compared to the general topic discussion. Plus, thinking about it, each hospital has it's own talk page that if people want to discuss something specific about that hospital they can go to the talk page instead of a regional section. Finally, we now have that nifty news feature so if someone wants to share some important news, they can just post it up there instead of hunting down the specific talk page.
