[MOD] More updates

[acidae.livejournal.com]

Requests.
Since it doesn't look like the votes are going to change any time soon, with the majority of voters wanting a system similar to boys_paper's to deal with requests, I've gone ahead and set one up. It's still subject to tweaking here and there over the next while, but we'll see how things go. :)

Rules.
The rules have also been updated, so it would be absolutely great if everyone can go and take a look-- not just for myself, but for your own sake too, so you will know if your posts are going to be deleted.

Links.
The list of links in the right column on the community profile has been reorganized and updated with several more resources-- if there is anything else that you find useful and haven't been listed, please let me know!

Tags.
I've taken a look at the list we currently have in the sidebar and made a few slight changes, which I will mention here along with a few explanations for the more ambiguous ones:

download: guest appearances -- Any clips of Arashi (group or solo) on shows that are neither music-related nor news-related, such as Waratte Iitomo, Gakkou e Ikou MAX!, etc.
download: news -- Any news clips about Arashi except NEWS ZERO, such as Mezamashi TV and Zoom in Super.
download: performances -- Any uploads with them performing live.
download: subtitled -- New tag for any subbed files (as the name suggests).
download: talks -- Previously download: music shows, basically the talks that usually accompany performances on UTABAN, MS, etc.; if your file(s) include both talk and performance, just use both tags.
download: tv (solo shows) -- Previously download: tv (other shows), this is for regular programs which Arashi members appear on individually, such as NEWS ZERO or Tensai! Shimura Dobutsuen.

Again, if there's any remaining confusion at all about any of the changes made, or if you still have questions that haven't been answered, feel free to comment here about it and I'll try my best to clarify. Thank you!

thank you so much for being so quick about all this, it's really a pleasure to be in this community. i like the organisation of the new tags, they're fantastic.

if you please, may i suggest a 'download: raw' tag as well? i see lots of raw files around too, so if there is a subtitled tag there should be a raw tag as well, in my opinion. just to make things more in place, perhaps? i'll leave it up to your discretion.

thanks once again!

You're welcome! I'm a bit of an organization freak when the urge hits, so I do this as much for the sake of my own sanity as it is for the community. XD

As for an additional tag for raw files, I don't think I will be adding one-- not because it's not a good idea per se, but because I don't really see a need for it (yet, at least) with the current ratio of raw files uploaded in this community to subtitled ones. If posts aren't tagged with the download: subtitled tag, it should be pretty clear that the reason for it is because they're not, right? XD

ah all right then. great organisation anyway.

i happened to have just replied you in the other voting post... just as you replied me here O_O

thanks for the new tags~

*applause* I didn't vote for some reason, but the result is really very good.

Thank you for doing all this, hopefully it will clear up most of the issues people have had lately :)

Some other helpful links, if you'd like to add them:
arashi_yuuki (scans of almost every mag Arashi appears in)
gyakukaiten (shameless self promotion >.> but also a lot of Arashi old shows)
honyakukonnyaku (kind of dead lately, but there's an index of really good Arashi translations)
6th_member (Arashi Jweb translations)
jdramas (subtitled dramas)

I wish I could suggest wiki.theppn, but sadly it's down. The Arashi section was really well filled out and a great source for new and old fans alike (I can vouch for it as I did a lot of it myself XD). Hopefully they'll find a way to recover it =/

I left out honyaku in the end because there's already two other sites listed for lyrics and I'm pretty sure the translation index includes links to it, but thanks for the new links! (I completely forgot about jdramas, augh. XD)
