Talk:Operation Holographic Harvest

Approved Missions section title

Hey all, just a quick discussion. Currently the subheading being used on the different community MvM event pages is 'Approved Missions', I'm proposing a change to 'Approved Maps and Missions' (as almost all of the maps being used in these events are custom maps). Additionally, most of these custom maps were specifically created for and submitted to these events, so it stands to reason that they'd be as much of a part of it as the missions are.

Personally, I feel that 'approved' is probably a bit redundant (they're in the campaign, so therefore they must be approved anyway). We could use other prefixes such as:

• Campaign Maps and Missions
• Event Maps and Missions
• Tour Maps and Missions
• Operation Maps and Missions

But my personal preference is probably just simply:

• Maps and Missions

Since it's the least clunky, and all the other prefixes are just as redundant (in my opinion).

Would welcome anybody else's feedback here, if people disagree I'm happy to leave it as is - it's a very minor thing anyway.

So as a bit of background, "Approved" is there because they have to be approved by campaign judges, from a submission pool for that campaign, before they're allowed to be in the tour. I wanted to be sure that it was conveyed they were the ones that were selected - be it from a contest submission pool, or their publicly viewable forum boards, which are still in use today.

However, I'm not against a small rework of the title, if you believe a different one may be better suited for a casual reader to understand. I wouldn't be opposed to any of your suggestions, if you feel they fit better than the word "approved," or just not having the word at all; my only stipulation would be that the text below it continue to mention that they were available during this specific event, since missions are often not reused after a tour is over. Maps are often reused with new missions, but missions themselves are always new ones. — 08:36, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Good points, I definitely think it's important to clarify that the missions below are (usually) specific to the event. I'm happy to leave the approved prefix there, considering the points you've mentioned above. Would 'Approved Maps and Missions' be an acceptable section title to you?

Also something I just considered - under dictionary/common strings, what do you think about changing 'Creators' -> 'Mission Creators' for the tables? Just to clarify that they created the missions, and not the maps. Epsilonal (talk) 09:06, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
