Announcement The Coop Page / Article Rating & Review Project!

[Kiki]

You lost me now, Rob…

 

[Kiki]

What if we have already reviewed and don't remember which ones had these errors?

Don't worry...the next person will see it.

I'm sure a few of you guys by now have found pages with missing images, for example many of them look like this:

Because many of our coop pages date back a good few years and BYC have been moved to new platforms twice in that time, some images unfortunately got lost, but...

We have a wonderful techie guy named Robert that figured out a way to get some of the missing images back and I've been bombarding the poor man with emails letting him know about pages, as we find them, so he can try and fix them for us.

I figured it would be easier if we all can put our finds in one place for him to access and keep track of what he looked at so far. I created a Google sheet for posting links to pages with missing images:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oh_-wG-Ah_NgIJnxmtG-uLcJD6HAJt9SlXhKFaZKbcU/edit#gid=0

I set the permissions on the sheet so anyone can edit, i.e. post stuff onto the sheet. So, if you guys find pages with image errors like the example above (and also PhotoBucket and Flickr errors), please post a link to the page on the sheet.

Thanks in advance!

Texas what?
what does that sign say?

Of all the interesting things in that image, you find the word Texas...

Do Cali people really think that Texas turkey legs taste good/better?

Maybe some of them do, but I'm with Sav on this one. Not native enough to answer. The sign says Texas turkey legs, but I'm not sure if it is a marketing scheme, or the Texas Turkey Legs company has actually partnered with other fair food stores somehow.

Is that the Alameda County Fair!?!?!

Chickens from that fair about 16 years ago lead to me owning BYC!

(my brother got three straggly hens the day it closed, then talked me into getting chickens, then the rest is history!)

It is. We went yesterday as Sav had never been. And i am not surprised! I was worried we were going to walk out with more chicks when we found out they had some.

Ryn.

We're hoping as more pages get more reviews we'll find them all. So i.e. the next member that reviews the ones you or someone else reviewed that has missing images, will let us know.

I know we should've thought of this at the start of the project, but you know what they say about hindsight!

Thanks… I read it, reread it, had more reread it… I'm just going to take it as a positive, whatever it's supposed to mean!

Well you can't prepare for an issue you don't know exists..

I'm sorry.

The one and only! Haha. Small world.

I don't exactly get this. It's not critical but I'm curious. I just gave a 5 star rating to a coop that has only my rating. Yet when it comes up, it shows a cumulative 4 1/2 start rating as if there is another rating somewhere (that doesn't show) of a 3.
