Automatically downloading higher-quality images

Every PotD's first image on Miiverse has a higher quality image on the official site. But you could only see it for 24 or 72 hours. I've tried this thing which downloads from the same URL every 24 hours. Not necessary, but useful. Also, it might not work as intended.

Background colors

I think users have a misunderstanding on what the background colors are supposed to mean. They're supposed to mean that there's been a reveal of sorts, not a mention. So making the background color for the PotD for Dec. 6, 2014 orange because Mewtwo is mentioned would be wrong, because he wasn't revealed. This would be the equivalent of making every post that mentions Mario in in orange because Mario is in it. Here's what the page itself says:

"…each entry is given a background colour that denotes that something new or otherwise important has been revealed."

The last time I checked, a mention in a post is not something that has been revealed.

So, here's how it should go: if something is revealed, then it gets the appropriate background color. If something is mentioned, on the other hand, then it does not get that appropriate background color of the mention in question and the background color would instead be of the actual reveal, if there is one.

Seems late for that, since this was the last pic of the day. Unless we need to go back and fix some others, I suppose. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 20:23, 5 December 2014 (EST)

We probably do, actually. Rtzxy Reflect! 20:25, 5 December 2014 (EST)

whooa we have a ton. A lot of these could stand to be white, not cyan, because they don't reveal anything at all. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 20:25, 5 December 2014 (EST)

I'm just gonna go through and change all of the inaccurate colors now, so if you could avoid editing it... unless, of course, you're already doing this :P ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 20:27, 5 December 2014 (EST)

No, no, go ahead. I'm not editing, but be wary of reverts, especially to the archives. Rtzxy Reflect! 20:29, 5 December 2014 (EST)

there may have been a few that I wrongfully changed to white, I can't remember when everything was officially revealed. So if someone could go behind me and fix those, that'd be useful. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 20:39, 5 December 2014 (EST)

Also I g2g. I'll do the archives tomorrow if someone else hasn't already. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nutta Butta (talk • contribs) 20:40, 5 December 2014 (EST)

Something's up with that thing's code...I just can't figure out what. BlueStreak Speeds By 22:35, 22 December 2014 (EST)

People were messing with the Miiverse post template to try to accommodate all the pictures in the comments. Frankly, though, we should probably separate these post-POTD Miiverse posts from the rest, perhaps with a new template to match. Miles (talk) 22:48, 22 December 2014 (EST)

Double-check our archive and anything else to keep?

Miiverse's demise is nigh, and while the Web Archive should keep most of the important stuff accessible, it would be worthwhile to double-check that Sakurai's posts are correctly transcribed here. Furthermore, are there any other Miiverse-related Smash elements that should be archived while it's still possible? Miles (talk) 02:58, 29 August 2017 (EDT)

Move proposal

Strong oppose. Why does this need to be moved? Just because Miiverse is no longer running? This page is itself an archive - there's really no need for this move to happen. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the internets go! :3 03:16, 27 February 2018 (EST)

Oppose. I can't see any of these pages getting moved anytime soon. St. Reggie, Leprachaun 23:48, 27 February 2018 (EST)

Oppose Please explain why. I fail to see any reason to do this. Serpent  King 22:42, 28 February 2018 (EST)

The newer posts should not be on the main section of the article, and should instead be moved to an archive like the older ones. The current layout implies that the newer posts are considered the primary topic over the others, while simultaneously creating the impression that the page is still being updated.

[1] See this Wikipedia page for example. The main article is a disambiguation page called "Lists of colors," while the lists themselves are split into separate pages alphabetically, in order to keep the page size manageable. Under the current state of the page, it would be like if the page "List of colors" contained letters A-F, while you would have to click on the other links to see the colors G-Z. The Miiverse posts page should be formatted similarly to the Wikipedia article. Awesome Cardinal 2000 00:17, 1 March 2018 (EST)
