Talk:Block Events

From Akita Wiki

Google calendar

Is Google calendar the best way to display the Upcoming Events? Without a Google account it can't be accessed - and information on it can't be edited, unless I'm doing something wrong (i.e. I can't rename Central Block to Capital Block on the Kanto event, even with a Google account). The Google calendar does have its conveniences though, so I may transcribe events into a wikitable. --SeanC (talk) 11:13, 8 July 2024 (JST)

Order of Dates Column

Dates column sorts alphabetically by date. Is there a way around this other than listing all dates in yyyy/mm/dd format? (Or, perhaps, is listing all of the dates in yyyy/mm/dd format preferable?) --SeanC (talk) 17:12, 1 February 2019 (JST)

Never mind. It was sorting alphabetically by date because the formatting for some of the dates was inconsistent. If the format is kept consistent like this it will sort properly: Jan 1, 2018. Note that this doesn't allow date ranges; only the start date. --SeanC (talk) 16:24, 5 February 2019 (JST)

Order

Also, perhaps listing the past events in reverse order, having the most recent event being at the top of the list, would be a good idea. --owencunn (talk) 14:36, 5 March 2018 (JST)

I thought exactly the same thing when I checked this page the other day. Should the reverse chronological order be preserved in upcoming events, too? If not, it might get confusing. --SeanC (talk) 15:55, 5 March 2018 (JST)
I imagine upcoming events should be in chronological, while past events be in reverse chronological order. Usually there is only 1 or 2 upcoming events --owencunn (talk) 16:36, 5 March 2018 (JST)
What do you think of the changes? --owencunn (talk) 12:07, 8 March 2018 (JST)
Good touch with making the fields sortable. I think that's a better option than locking it in stone in either direction. I approve! --SeanC (talk) 15:07, 8 March 2018 (JST)

"Block"

How about removing the word Block from each entry in the "Block" column? owencunn (talk) 13:29, 31 October 2017 (JST)

I can get behind it.--SeanC (talk) 08:45, 12 December 2017 (JST)
