User blog:Drew1200/What to do when the LMBs are updated

The updates for the LMBs are getting really close, and tons of users have been asking what we're going to do here when they're updated. Ever since the updates were first mentioned in 2011, I've trying to come up with a way to keep this wiki in shape, and as a good archive for the old LMBs. I've considered doings several different things, some even as crazy as creating a new wiki for everything, and some as simple as just updating the articles. Before I go on, I just want to note that neither of the above options are going to happen. Anyways, I really want to keep this place as a nice archive of what the LMBs were like before the update. We'll still have tons of information on the new LMBs, I just think that an archive is essential. I've tried to think of things we could do for this. Some of my ideas have been moving the old articles to another namespace, and writing new articles for the current LMBs, and provide a link to the old articles. Another idea I've had is moving some of the information to the bottom of the page in a show/hide template. There's tons of things we could do, so if you have any ideas, please tell me.

We really don't know enough about the update to prepare an organized plan for updating our articles. Therefore, I am gong to request and enforce that when the update does officially appear, no one update the articles until the admins release an official, organized plan for updating them. If users just randomly start updating articles in ways they think is best, and will result in a confusing, inconsistent, unorganized wiki. I know we all wan to avoid that, so I am going to have to request that no one updates the articles, no matter how cool the new LMBs are, and how much you want to update them. I'll do my best to quickly prepare a plan and templates to update the articles, with the help of the other admins.
