And that obligation does not apply if part of the entered data is rejected or changed? I am always curious about the items I have imported.

@DM: Doesn't seem desirable to have this on by default. In itself you are right, but then we as an option. Don't think about being inundated with even more email. Only when I feel that it may be important for the input do I send an importer a message, usually they are input instructions.

Based on your feedback, we've made many improvements to the background pages.

Let me summarize the main points:

  • From the homepage you can now see what the latest background pages are.
  • From the section homepage you can now see what the latest background pages are for the relevant section.
  • In a user's profile you can see which background pages he/she has entered.
  • If administrators disapprove of a new background page, they can immediately send an email to the contributor. They can also select a reason from a drop-down (we have already put the current entry lines in the drop-down).
  • Saving the background page has been made faster.
  • Reviews are now sorted by last modified date.
  • The issues with background pages disappearing and reviews not being processed properly have been resolved. Any issues this caused have been corrected.
  • In the history of a background page, you can see which admin has reviewed a change.
  • Super administrators have been given an overview that allows them to view all background pages of all categories.
  • In the management module, administrators can get an overview of all background pages for the relevant section they are currently in.
  • A numbered list is now also properly displayed on the background page itself.
  • If you enter a new background page, you can no longer enter the catalog number of the newest and oldest item. This is only possible if you change a background page. Furthermore, the text about the use of these two fields has been improved.

Later this week we will place an extra link on the section pages that do not yet have a background page, with which we draw people's attention to the possibility of creating a background page if they have a lot of knowledge about the relevant section.

Little question: what's the difference between "Title" and "Full title"?

P.S. Arco's "glitch" has not been fixed yet.

Super administrators have been given an overview that allows them to view all background pages of all sections.

What do you mean by this, Marco?

@books warehouse: what is the difference between title and full title?

Title is the name of the collection area. With full title, if it concerns the name of a person, the surname and first name / initials are reversed so that the name is placed there in logical order. The full title text does not really convey the meaning. Let me see how we can better call that.

@books warehouse: arco glitch

It has indeed not been fixed yet. We didn't want to take Arco's royal background away yet :-)

@arco: At the management page for the background pages, a link has been added to the top right that allows you to view all entered background pages.

@Marco: This posting suddenly reminds me that I noticed before that hard returns don't seem to work on an iPad. Can there be anything else to come up with than manual & lt; br & gt; to type when you want to start a new paragraph?

Not a lot of background pages are being added yet, but the ones there are are not really very "visible" either. May I suggest adding an icon to (links to) collection areas that already have a background page that distinguishes them, eg like in this example: http://i48.tinypic.com/etb8n4.png

If it's not too complicated to program.

I had indeed entered that post on my iPad. Let's take a look.

@Books Warehouse: Not many background pages are being added yet, but the ones that exist are not really "visible" either. May I suggest adding an icon to (links to) collection areas that already have a background page that distinguishes them, eg like in this example: http://i48.tinypic.com/etb8n4.png If it is not too complicated to program.

Indeed not much is being added yet. Your solution is not difficult to program, but I don't expect it to have the intended effect. What we're going to do is put a link at the top of a rubric page asking people to create a background page. The link for the background page in the left column is not obvious enough now.

@Arco: Not working the return on the iPad also bothers me immensely, but I did not know that the html code also works.
Not ideal, but better than putting three dashes as an alternative.

@Marco, the only effect I intended with my proposal was to make "more visible" (i.e. draw more attention to) the existing background pages. What did you think I meant?

@Marco Indeed not much is being added yet. Your solution is not difficult to program, but I don't expect it to have the intended effect. What we're going to do is we're going to put a link at the top of a category page asking people to create a background page. The link for the background page in the left column is now not noticeable enough.

Marco, those are two different things:
- background page users
- background page inputs

I think the idea of Boekenmagazijn is very good, an icon for a series, hero, series, etc. with a direct link to the background page will make it much easier for the user to get to it.

For the input: I think we need more volunteers with more free time.

@Bookmagazijn: I read your post too soon, I thought you were referring to "Not many background pages are being added yet". I get your point. I'm going to discuss what we can do with it. The icon is also nice to use in the left column of the photo gallery.

The suggestion of Boekenmagazijn has just been implemented and we also indicate more clearly that you can create a background page.

By the way, we did not directly link to the info text because the link and the icon will yield different results. That gets confusing. It has now been made so that if you click on the link you will see the icon at the top of the page

Just added a background page to Comics / Classics, but it won't be visible.

Albums was the same, but it appeared after the first change. I just can't get a working link to the Handbook in it. Is it because it is on a subdomain?

Probably because only links to http://catawiki.nl/
are allowed. I suspect Assets is a different server.

Other than that, I have few problems. Only inserting links between / before existing links is annoying.

@Marco By the way, we did not directly link to the info text because the link and the icon will yield different results. That gets confusing. It has now been made so that if you click on the link at the top of the page you will see the icon again.

I would rather have a direct link, but okay, don't complain, it's much clearer like this :-)

It has been regularly explained that for staging areas containing more than 3000 items, changes are often not done ad hoc, but in a batch at a later date. This concerns eg Album series names, main series codes, etc ... I wouldn't be surprised if that is the case with those background pages.

The only thing Marco has never told you is when this happens. Firstly, we can never give users a concrete answer, secondly, we can never signal whether that batch has justifiably not yet been run. Because we don't know when he should walk.

Marco?

And we have the first example of (in this case probably accidental) abuse of a background page:

I hope you won't mind that I have to chuckle about the creativity of someone who has been a member for 3 years, has never introduced anything and 'sees his chance'?

Well, it is indeed not the intention to sell via the background information pages. Didn't even think that that could happen. Which administrator can remove it for a moment?
