lyric archive. let's make it work.
ooookay.
So i grabbed all the html old lyric archive pages off uh. dumbrella. (thanks, wget!) I realize that a user-submitted db-driven model has been tried before (aarondek.com/archive); but now seems like a really good time to try such a beast again.
Fully indexed, searchable... come on. I reckon that'd be cool. Ideally, these should be cross-indexed to user entered user-pages, etc. I mean, it's cool that spud's pluggin' all that shizzle in, but what a pain in the ass.
Parsing all the old (lyric) data would be a pain in the ass, but not impossible. It seems like a shame to lose all that. Are there plans for such a beast in the works? I'll help/write the back end if not.

Re: lyric archive. let's make it work.
Yah, I did the same thing, and was thinking much the same thing. I may give this a shot one day if it doesn't just magically happen on its own.reve wrote: So i grabbed all the html old lyric archive pages off uh. dumbrella. (thanks, wget!)

(Guys, if you need more volunteer help with anything, I'm happy to help.)
Also, I want to start a post about how much I hate almost all of you, but I'm not sure which forum to put it in.

The old dumbrella board is staying up, but locked. You can still see your lyrics there, kids.

If they were staying up forever indefinitely, it would just say "The old boards will not be deleted". That board will be coming down sometime.rstevens, on the new Dumbrella board wrote:The old boards will not be deleted any time in the near future, but will be locked in a few days. You can still read and link to your favorite threads but you won't be able to add to them. This system should be a lot faster & more stable.

The main heading for the Lyric Archive threads currently says: "Not for donations-- post those in the fight discussion forum." By "donations," do you mean the Lyric Mart thread?
If so, I think that one would fit better in the "collaborations" area, although I s'pose it would work to have people just post them to the prefight threads...
Just not sure what you mean by "donations," and I didn't see a new lyric mart thread anywhere...

I moved it, because it was in a thread that people couldn't reply to.
