UPDATE!
Well I cut out even more fat, if a country had less than 100 posts it's gone! Well not gone but now we have a slim and trim "Other Countries"
- Africa + Trip Reports
- Asia + Trip Reports
- Philippines + Trip Reports
- Thailand + Trip Reports
- Caribbean+ Trip Reports
- Cuba + Trip Reports
- DR(duh) + Trip Reports
- Central America + Trip Reports
- Costa Rica + Trip Reports
- Europe + Trip Reports
- South America + Trip Reports
- Brazil + Trip Reports
- Colombia + Trip Reports
- Canada + Trip Reports
Now before people start panicking I did the following with every thread! (YES I READ EVERY THREAD IN THE OLD COUNTRY SECTIONS!)
- I applied a Thread Prefix for every thread
- I sticky'ed every thread that was considered "FAQ/Info" or "Maps" I also stick'ed certain threads that were of excellent quality but a different topic (e.g. A thread that had a list of sex clubs, technically a "Sex Club" Prefix)
- I applied Thread Prefixes to the threads in Trip Reports, they weren't all Trip Reports!
- I changed the threads titles so now for example if it is in Asia it reads "Vietnam - original thread name" (Two reasons, to prepare for the new auto tagging system, and secondly since they are now in region sections people will be able read the country the topic is about, something like "Massage Parlors" in the Asia section is pointless unless it says "Hong Kong - Massage Parlors")
- I corrected the spelling in the thread titles.
- I corrected abbreviations of cities in the thread titles. (This is very important from now on. BA = Buenos Aires and people know that but the forum software doesn't, you can't search for words with less then 3 letters! Also it will help with tagging!)
I finished every country except for;
- Cuba - Still need to add "Cuba -" to every thread and apply a Prefix and move them to the new forum "Cuba - Topics" I know I will get lost in the threads there especially the ones with old cars in them so I saved it for last!
- I need to apply the country name to the thread titles and correct the spelling/abbreviations for Brazil & Costa Rica sections. (Of course since they have their own sections so this is only for tagging purposes.)
- I need to go back to Thailand & The Philippines and do the same with applying the country name to the beginning of the thread and correct spelling/abbreviations. (Again if you want to just type "AC/ac" in your post that's fine but we really need "Angeles City" spelled out in the Thread Title from now on.)
- I need to clean up the lesser cities in Colombia and possibly the DR as I described a few posts up.
