:: Looking at the history of both [[BFA]] and [[Help:Prefixes]], it looks like it started off as "every BF audio" and gradually expanded out. Any older admins want to confirm that? -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] ([[User talk:Tybort|talk page]]) 01:56, August 5, 2012 (UTC) | :: Looking at the history of both [[BFA]] and [[Help:Prefixes]], it looks like it started off as "every BF audio" and gradually expanded out.

:::In fairness, the prefix [[BFA]] was more "catch all" in the past, because there simply weren't other lines around. It was the monthly release ''only'' for a very long time. The diversification into different ranges is relatively recent and therefore past decisions don't quite hold as much weight. BFA ''used'' to work well, but I'd argue that it really makes no sense to new users to have BFA, when we really mean just the monthlies. The more specific our prefixes, the more understandable — and therefore ''useful'' — they'll be. | |||
:::So I think you're right: we ''do'' need to look at all of the sub-series to make sure they're prefixed as clearly as they can be. I wouldn't be opposed to [[BFEX]], for instance, for the ''Excelis'' series. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">20:16: Sun 05 Aug 2012 </span> |
