Some have been archived -

  • Break it down for me
  • It never happens resource thread

Any others you would nominate for saving for posterity?

There’s this one, of course:

Nah they’ll surely leave it as its own section.

Ninkanink · 17/06/2021 11:16

Oh ok. I thought the world had gone —even more— mad for a minute there!

Hoping nothing will be lost, but it's actually a good chance to get round to archiving useful threads, anyway!

I can't work out how things will look once The Great Splitting has been imposed. Is someone going to sift through every thread to work out where to put it?

I read they won't be deleted - but can you add to them if they are in the "wrong" place?

(MN have said they won't be deleted, it's just what it will look like isn't clear)

The assumption is that they will remain where they are under the current URLs, but not clear if they will be part of the history of "Feminism chat", "Sex and Gender" or neither.

I imagine you wouldn't want old trans threads being bumped within a now-non-trans "Feminism chat", but putting everything from this board into in "Sex and Gender" would be weird too.

Archives are probably a good idea in case something goes wrong. But hopefully nothing does...

They’re not getting rid of the archive are they??

If so that’s utterly shit of MNHQ.

Sorry this doesn't answer your question but made me think of one myself - what is going to happen to all the existing threads on this board when Mumsnet boots us off into the gulag?
Can some of the threads come with us?

I would hope that Tinsels threads are not lost.
