After reading this thread I'm terrified about ever asking again. Good lord, you TLPD editors are heroes. | ||

Obviously I'm writing this from an outsiders perspective but I'm not sure why propositions like these are unreasonable while everyone who ever had to work with it is telling horror stories about it in this very thread. | ||

I mean we have not that many notable events that would need to be entered atm. in the foreign amateur DB, it's currently only filthy tour, HAY!, defiler tours and the big defiler tournament by yoda. No other starleagues, no other Team League. There's def. more korean events that would qualify for the post-kespa korean DB, but i imagine it's possible to make a cut and include only the big events before you don't update at all? im not well informed about the notable korean tours that are in progress atm. I don't wanna sound overly critical, i respect that every volunteer can only invest a certain amount of time, but as the op said: it's such a great feature, actually. sounds like you're volounteering then. If it's such small time investment, and such great 'end product'. I think you should do it. | ||

If you are still interested nobody is really going to say no, dunno if prech is active at the moment though. | ||

If it works don't break it, sure, I guess that's what the previous poster meant, but from these comments it seems like TLPD doesn't really work anymore. So, given that, it makes sense from a business perspective, I think it makes sense to rewrite it, or inline it with Liquipedia which is continuously developed and contains a lot of new post-KeSPA data that is missing from TLPD. Obviously I'm writing this from an outsiders perspective but I'm not sure why propositions like these are unreasonable while everyone who ever had to work with it is telling horror stories about it in this very thread. Wiki code base is also a nightmare to work with | ||

I didnt think the Iccup replay thing was that bad, i used to be Admin on Iccup and it wasnt that difficult to use. It was quite frustrating since they expected so many new reps a day, which at times was uh quite difficult to find | ||

I checked http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/TeamLiquid.net_Staff and there seems to be a few people involved, although no clarity on who leads the section. | ||
