- This is the "Completed nominee reviews" table - everybody in that table has been discussed. Logs for the discussion are available on a per-user basis if editor's want to know why they weren't awarded the cap. -RJ 03:10, 19 August 2011 (PDT)
- Me gusta. Simple as that.

- Me gusta. Simple as that.
- I don't see how this actually improves over the current table. All of the users here have already been discussed, and the dates are there to let the users look up their logs once they get their password. If you want to re-nominate a user, note at the bottom how it says not to immediately re-nominate them after they have been declined. The staff will look over these users again later on. --
LordKelvin 10:38, 19 August 2011 (PDT) - IMO, we should have atable pretty much like this, BUT without the "Not discussed" days. Users with consecutive "No"'s should show several knows, but users not discussed on several weeks shouldn't have many "Not discussed"'s. The originally proposed table would unecessarily fill up easily. –

Table Disambiguation: Active Nominations, Recent Reviews, Archive of Approved Reviews, Archive of Nominations
If the rate of nominees continues at its current pace, then in a few months we will have a rather full table of completed reviews. In anticipation of that scenario, I suggest setting up tables with these four titles, moving entries into autocollapsed archives after a sensible amount of time spent in the 'Recent Reviews' table.
Whether you approve or disapprove of this idea, please also state what you believe would be the best length of time to wait before archiving a review. I've already decided what my vote would be... Mainman (Talk ▪ Contribs.) 10:08, 22 August 2011 (PDT)
Support Sure, why not. And 2 months sounds reasonable to me — Wind 15:57, 22 August 2011 (PDT)- Support That's great. – Epic Eric (T | C) 07:42, 28 August 2011 (PDT)
Archive of Nominations
Wouldn't it be better if it would be listed from new to old? I need to scroll down a long time till i see my nomination, and in the future i guess the list will be even longer. Why not put the latest nominations at top and the older in the bottom, would be more logical, right? TheDoctor(without a small pic) 18:49, 13 November 2011 (PST)
Suggesting an addition to New Noms./Re-Noms. tables
I think we should put a link to the users contribs onto the nominee table, something like this:
| Nominee | Backers | Date Nominated | Prior Nomination Dates | Reasons | Staff Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ExampleUser (contribs) | ExampleSupporter | 2011-11-25 | 2011-09-27 | ● Example support message. | N/A |
Whaddya think? It's an easy addition, just go through the current New Nominations and Re-Nominations tables, find the nominee's userpage link, punch in a space and paste in ([[Special:Contributions/UsernameGoesHere|contribs]]). 404: User Not Found (talk) 12:56, 29 November 2011 (PST)
- Agree Actually looks fine to me, people could easily check someones contributions and by chance decide to support the guy they check up, evading going thru their respective profile page. Good idea imo.
· T-Wayne · Talk 13:11, 29 November 2011 (PST) - Agree Not a bad idea. Also it would only take a few seconds to implement.
13:07, 29 November 2011 (PST)
- Comment Indeed it would. I was actually thinking of implementing it a few seconds ago while adding my support for Stevosiak. But I'd rather get community opinion on it first. You might also want to head over to the Discussion board and check out my proposal for an addition to the Class bio template. 404: User Not Found (talk) 13:14, 29 November 2011 (PST)
- Pootis because why not. I was about to say that it needs to be smaller so that it fits on one line but then I realized the reasons column usually makes it a ton of lines long so it doesn't matter — Wind 13:24, 29 November 2011 (PST)
I feel like I'm being passed by
Okay, I would like to start by saying that I do not wish to offend Warlike in any way and he deserves a Wiki Cap, but I'm rather peeved. I have been working on the Dutch side of the TF Wiki for nearly 1.5 year by now (I started in October 2010), I have contributed heavily and I have yet to receive the wikichievement for translating, let alone the Wiki Cap. Now I come here and see that Warlike has been nominated. Again, he deserves it, but I feel like I'm being ignored here. In fact, despite being the only translator for a good year, I was getting flak for supposedly having edits that 'were not up to standard', while I was the bloody standard. Yes, I am aware that in the past month I haven't done a lot of work, that's how a study is for ya, but that does not take away that I have sunk a lot of time and work into the Wiki, yet I'm not seeing any kind of recognition here, not even in the form of a simple wikichievement.
I know, I know. The Wiki Cap is a privilege, not a right and I have been working silently all this time, not ever asking for anything for that reason. And for a similar reason, I should not be frustrated, nor disappointed for not being granted such privilege. But that doesn't take away that it looks like people just keep ignoring my work over and over and over again.
Again, I do not wish to insult anyone, particularly not Warlike, whom I still believe deserves a Wiki Cap, but I just had to get this out there. --
