Talk:Discord/Rules

Suggestion Regarding Removing an Unnecessary Statement
The statement "Hello! Welcome to Miraheze's Discord server." seems unnecessary and does not seem to fit in the context. I suggest it to be removed. Thank you. R4356th (talk) 17:25, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * R4356th I think the reason it says that is because that's a verbatim quoted passage from the  channel on Discord, but otherwise I'd agree with your point. Dmehus (talk) 17:29, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, I understand that but it does not mention that. R4356th (talk) 17:34, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * My point is that, if it is being quoted, it should be mentioned or optimised for using here. R4356th (talk) 17:35, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * R4356th Yeah, I get that, and I can honestly see cases for us doing it both ways. I suspect revi wanted to copy the Discord rules verbatim, since this is just a carbon copy of the original, mainly so we can easily link to Discord/Rules on Discord. Basically, I can see a strong argument for altering the wiki version, but I can also see a strong argument for not altering the wiki version, as it's intended to be a carbon copy and also because these rules are specifically tailor made for the Discord server.

 * R4356th If you mean just clarifying the introductory sentence, can you provide an example of what you had in mind? I'm open to that. Dmehus (talk) 17:44, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I assume you are referring to this part from one of my previous replies "if it is being quoted, it should be mentioned". I think a statement like this could be added-  R4356th (talk) 18:04, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * R4356th That's a reasonable change, and it does add clarification, so I'm going to say ✅. Dmehus (talk) 18:23, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. R4356th (talk) 18:27, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * R4356th ✅. I'm glad we resolved it, and thank you both for reporting this and for your grammatical correction. Speaking of which, I've been meaning to ask you about volunteering as a translation administrator? We could use a Bangladesh language translation administrator (or two, potentially). Just say the word, and I'll provide you the guidelines and formalize this. Dmehus (talk) 18:39, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
