Other Shared Issues To Look At

Let's be careful not to go *too* merge happy with problems! For issues that only have two or three entries, I don't really see the need for it. Also, we need to be careful about association! The heat blur issues aren't really related, and I would be opposed to those. But the banding problems are related, since they use the same engine. Let's be careful! - MaJoR (talk) 10:02, 13 December 2015 (CET)

Naming Convention

I think I was in programming mode when I set this up initially without spaces in the titles. I'm guessing there is no good reason to handle them that way. Should these be revised to include spaces, and otherwise extend them, to make them them easier to identify? Kolano (talk) 22:14, 17 December 2015 (CET)

Noting Additional Data

Various shared problems have additional data tacked on to the end of statements (screenshots, particulars of the issue for that title). I think we may want to handle that differently so we can be aware of such content when these issues need to be cleaned up. Some strategies:

  • Just ignore it, always remember to postfix something like ".*?(?=== )" to the ends of search 'n replaces used to clean these up (i.e. followed by "== "). (My regex syntax may be off there). Though something a bit more complicated would be needed to account for shared problems following one another.
  • Add notes regarding the post-fixed content on each shared problems documentation page, and be careful cleaning shared problems with such text. We probably should have some standard documentation of it in any case.
  • Pull the content into the shared problem in some pay (i.e. provide additional parameters). Though this probably makes the clean-up steps equally hard as with the "ignore it bullet", so perhaps not a good solution.
