NexusWiki:Discussions:Uploading Files Disabled

Uploads have been disabled, I noticed. The reason being that a new client will be coming soon, and so the graphics will be obsolete. My opinion is that uploads should be reenabled. The new client will give the option of using the old graphics, and so they will still be used and needed. Also, if this is to be a large collection of nexus information, past and present, it seems to me that old images should be included along with new ones. Even if the old graphics were going to go away and never be used again- I would scramble to get as many old graphics as possible. They're a piece of history. That's my opinion anyways. What's everyone else think?--Scum 20:18, 21 Aug 2005 (EDT)

I agree. The wiki should include both the old and new graphics. However, enabling uploads now would mean that people in the alpha test could upload images... This may be against Kru's wishes. Still, I think we could simply ask contibuters not to post content about the new client until it goes public.

True, but they could upload images of alpha in any number of places. If anybody does, ban them. I don't think you should have too much of a problem with it. It's my understanding that the alpha testers had to sign rock solid non disclosure agreements saying that they won't leak, post screenshots, etc. And this is one place that uploads are logged and controlled judiciously. So I doubt that you would have a problem with it. --Scum 23:06, 21 Aug 2005 (EDT)

If no one seriously objects, I will re-enable uploads today. We can delete any alpha graphics as needed, but I doubt this will happen. --Zaventh 09:39, 22 Aug 2005 (EDT)
