:book: :book: Teh Official Discopædia Meta

Thread-iversary
Given that this has 5 likes, I'm going to go ahead and index and wiki it. I know it's bad form to do so on your own definition, but it looks like the other TL4+s are sleeping.
-
Speaking of definitions, don't we already have Discofeature? I'm sure we have something similar at least...
-
You're thinking of Discobug. Actually …
@PWolff, since discofeature is not yet elevated to be a discodefinition, all edits are up to you. You may want to consider adding:
See also: [Discobug]
-
I thought so, too, but I didn't see it in the index.
...it looks like the other TL4+s are sleeping.
Shit...now discopædia editing is part of my job?
-
Only if you want. It's not like we get paid.

11 posts were spent in a new topic: Likes as currency

An addition has been made to the Jeff (noun) definition! First one to spot it gets 2 inernetz!
-
Deleting the topic which contains the intrusive "facts"
I'll admit, the public edit history did help ;)
-
We have a winner!
That was fast.

Wait a second, I'm the original author on that post and I have this preference:
Apparently, the wiki overrides that …
Oh well, enjoy your 2 internetz.

You also changed

But I was asking about additions, not changes.

WTF-State Boolean
nounIn Tri-State Boolean you get True/False/Null. In WTF-State Boolean you get True/False/File_Not_Found instead.
Citation?
Also, see DiscoBool.
-
It's a subset of DiscoBool that has specific value of File_Not_Found.
Maybe I should add that to the text.
-
Yeah, this really should have been added as a third definition of discobool. And the citation isn't a valid citation to an original usage.
-
Okay. I'll withdraw the post. @PJH please help add the third defination. XD
-
The posts are wikified; you can do it yourself ;)
-
Job done.

topaginate
Damn. You beat me. Here's what I was working on:
**Topaginate** *verb*
- To split an infiniscroll thread into virtual pages using a script such as the one provided by @darkmatter. [Cite 1], [Cite 2]
- To continue a very long topic when it has grown beyond the limits that Discourse can handle. Simply start a second topic to continue the overly large topic and off you go. [Cite]

At least I got topicalize.

A definition was transcribed into Teh Official Discopædia (ﷺ, @abarker, creator and prophet of the Discopædia)

Discollation
noun, verbMinor nit-pick, since this entry hasn't been wikified, so I can't fix it myself:
Discollation is indeed the noun, but the verb should be discollate.
-
fixed.
the content i mean. i can't make with the wiki
-
oh, oh! I can help!
-
while you're at it, want to get @abarkers Topicalize right above it? ;-)
also thanks!
-
Just a note: Part of the reason I separated out the discussion from the Discopaedia was to make it easier to track the quality of the definitions and determine which ones should be made official. Definitions are not considered official discodefinitions until they are wikified and added to the index. Each TL4+ is granted the autonomy to use their own judgement, though I personally tend to wait until a definition has 4 or more likes. Or if I really like someone else's definition.
Also, in the future, if you wiki a definition, please be sure to add it to the index, properly alphabetized, of course. ;)

This is why I stopped wikifying that shit.

What in belgium is that on his chin? I mean, I know what it's supposed to be, but it doesn't look right.

It's Maynard, TYVM. Hmm...ninja away the Gilligan reference...sure.

Same actor.

Wow, you are an ancient fucker, ain't you?

Doh! Fixed.

I don't see it.

Bwahaha!

Working through the Discopædia, day by day. Some definitions may get skipped for raisins.

swears?
Filed under: god damn you quoting on mobile I hate you so much
Nah, mostly length. Like the one about Jeff. That's a long one. I don't think we have many with swearing.

Two Discoterms I'm not sure How To Add Right to dictionary:
DisclosedTag
A tag "closed" by Discourse using the same keyboard shortcut that opened it.
Example: Ctrl-b to open and ctrl-b to close****strong textDi500
An arbitrary number picked for absolutely no reason, and then used as absolute fact to make all decisions on.
See: Kuro-bar

Just add it. The admins/mods/etc will make it a wiki, then someone will make it look good for you.

As for building a definition, most everything is along the lines of:
**{term}** *{part of speech}*
{definition(s)}
{synonyms,antonyms,see also, etc.}
