Summary:
Add "Refresh" link at the bottom of the Inbox.

Description:
The "Refresh" link currently exists only at the top of the Inbox. If I had a nickel for every time I have scrolled to the top of the page in order to refresh it, . . . . The "Refresh" link should be added to the bottom of the page as well.

Title:
Delete All Entries/Comments Upon Journal Deletion

Area:
Accounts, Entries

Summary:
Livejournal now features a ( delete all comments and posts ) option when a user chooses to delete their journal from Account Settings. It would be nice to see this option implemented on Dreamwidth.

Description:
On Dreamwidth, when users select to delete a non-community account, they should be given the option to delete all comments and community posts site-wide. Upon selection, the entries and comments are immediately removed from view, but I assume they're not fully removed from the database until the account is purged to prevent abuse in hacking/account theft incidences.

This feature has recently been implemented on Livejournal, and it's beneficial for several reasons.

1) It clears the servers of unneeded data once the journal is purged.

2) For privacy reasons, it gives users another option to effortlessly delete their content without affecting the content of another user, and without having to track down every entry and comment across the entirety of the site.

Updates



Expressed concerns:

  • It presents the option to someone who otherwise might not be looking for it.
  • It interferes with conversation across the site, leaving conversations disjointed.


Not implemented :
  • [Suggestion] The ability to search for every post you have made to a community without entering the community directly - something similar to the Recent Comments/Latest Posted Comments page.
  • [Suggestion][Suggested by Others] The ability to mass Orphan Comments/Entries posted outside of your own journals/communities, which detaches your identity to the content. I'm not sure how this would work, but someone else would have to suggest this.
  • [Suggestion][Suggested by Others] If a mass delete button were to be put in place, then textbox or checkbox capability for excluding certain journals and communities from the deletion of comments/entries.


On http://www.dreamwidth.org/editjournal :
  • [Suggestion] A delete button with confirmation for [Delete this Entry].
  • [Suggestion] Perhaps the option to mass delete would be located on this page, separate from the Delete Journal confirmation page to avoid clicking the option without fully reading over it and considering its consequences.


On http://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/recent_comments :
  • [Bug] A clearer visual of comments that are already deleted with grayed out text, or the [delete] changed to [deleted]. (Found on Bugzilla)
  • [Suggestion] The ability to go back through all comments ever posted (at present, the max is your 150 most recent comments). Or an ability to hide or separate deleted comments so that the list will keep expanding. (Found on Bugzilla)


Am I missing anything?
