Summary:

Add ability to import Vox journals by the end of September 2010.

Since Vox is shutting down at the end of September 2010, is it possible for you all to add the ability to import a Vox journal in such a short time?

Split up recent comments page to allow more comments

Split up recent comments page to allow more comments

Area:
comments

Summary:
Split the recent comments page into separate pages for comments received and comments posted.

Description:
http://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/recent_comments has a section for comments received and a section for comments posted. It has handy links to skip from one to the other. It defaults to 25 comments, and allows you to show up to 150 comments of either type.

However, if you pick 150 comments, you get both 150 comments received and 150 comments posted. This is a big page to load when you only wanted one or the other, so bad for dial-up, mobiles and the poor servers.

I'd suggest splitting this into two pages that you can toggle between, since most people will use the links rather than scrolling down 25 comments anyway. This will make the page faster to load, only give you the information you actually want, and open the door to the possibility of increasing the limit of 150.

Access your community posts

Access your community posts

communities, privacy

Summary:
Allow you to delete a community post you no longer have access to.

Description:
Sometimes, a user posts something in a community under members lock, and then an admin later removes them from that community. This means the user no longer has control of their own post.

For comments in that situation, the recent comments page and links in your email will still work. However, there is no equivalent for entries.

Allowing the user to access or edit their post would be difficult and controversial. However, allowing you to delete your own content even if you can no longer access it is already established behaviour for comments.

I'd propose adding a "Recent Community Entries you posted" page along the lines of the "Recent Comments you posted", with links to the entries and links to delete them.

This would have the downside that any comments to that post would then disappear. However, this is already true of community entries in general - this is simply a logical extension of the behaviour.
