HB 23-18: Atlas Fantasy Government Board Description Act (Passed)

[Elcaspar]

Aye

[Fmr. Representative Encke]

I'm just reposting this question here for the attention of any mods who happen to enter this thread.

Question for anyone who can answer: if some legislation is moved from the old regional governments board to new regional boards, do links to the relevant legislation still work (say, links posted on the Wiki)? Will the old regional board be filled with those 'this topic has been moved' posts that link to the new post in the other board?

My guess is that the links wouldn't work as the board would be different, but I'll ask in the Mod Cave for formal confirmation.

In light of the above, I'll have to vote Nay on the amendment. Agreed with the principle of it at first, but if links won't work if the legislation is switched to different boards, the old regional governments board will have to become a mess of 'moved post' threads, which I'm not a fan of.

Asked Virgina, she noted that:

"All thread links just have the topic ID, which doesn't change. So if you move it to another board, it's still valid."

The issue of moving thread is being debated, but Virginia also noted it is possible - should it be necessary - to move several threads at a time based on stuff like their title.

The amendment is adopted.

That's not good. I'm going to have to amend the amendment, probably tomorrow. We can't dictate to the mods what to do, so we can't "shall" anything.

[Fmr. Representative Encke]

Can I modify your amendment slightly? This bill should also outline a description for the 'Regional Governments Archive' as well.
