Have question with this, because I love looking through threads and I can totally help. Which is preferred, formatting like 2013 and forward, or like 2012 and back? I'd think the recent ones are slightly easier to read in-wiki, because you can always put them in date order and people can see the date when they open the thread, if they are interested.

If I have some time I would totally be willing to help out with this too, just depends! But Katie, I would probably definitely go with the 2013+ format. The 2012 and back is a bit more difficult to follow and seems to be more of a waste of space with the big, bold headers for each individual day an event happened. The bullet-points seem to have a cleaner look and make it easier on the eyes, in my opinion. But, if somebody else thinks otherwise, feel free to share ! <:

I definitely would want the 2013+ format for the reason Ann mentioned -- the headers are so pointless lol. And a lot of us don't actually date threads?? I know that I don't, so I wouldn't want to be forced to pick a date.

If the 2013+ format is approved upon by everyone involved, I'll go back and reformat the old pages. :) I personally DO date my threads because that way I know what I can/can't/should mention in other posts, but I wouldn't want to have to look up the exact date for every little thing.
EDIT: Looks like that old formatting was used in 2009-2012, so maybe it won't be too hard to fix.
