Data Management Wishlist
From Dreamwidth Notes
- http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/890238.html - allow entries to be undeleted for short period of time after deletion (consensus: 72 hours) to prevent "oops" deletions. In communities, probably only maints/mods should be able to undelete? What should DW abuse policy be on this?
- http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/891276.html - centralized place to acquire contact info for mutual friends only. Overall supported, with some concerns for hacked accounts. Should the format be one of the common export formats such as CSV, or should it only be an HTML page? Ability to filter said page (only friends in this friends group, located in blah country, only friends with Skype accounts, etc). Zilla 81
- http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/873225.html - More complete way to back up one's LiveJournal - not just entries, but voice posts, scrapbook photos, userpics, profiles, to-do lists, etc. Possibly a client? Some discussion in IRC yielded support for the idea of a full-journal backup that could be queued like how mass-privatizing entries are now; possibility of not only export but import to other DW-based sites.
- http://community.livejournal.com/suggestions/828121.html - Delete all entries at once. Some additional means of verifying the user's identity might be helpful, or a way to undo this within a certain amount of time, or perhaps all entries should have to be made private first and then all private entries could be deleted?
