With the new leak, the facebook section is by far becoming the biggest section on the wiki. Anyone have any ideas how we can divide it up or break it down rather than listing hundreds of images on one page?
 
What I'd suggest is reverting the Facebook page back to before the tomgirl saga, and having something at the top like like "for Chris's Facebook posts after 2011, see Facebook Saga".

The Facebook page is fucking horrible at the moment.

It was a stub before recently and nobody's removed the stubby crap so it seems really into pre-Facebook saga shit then there's just a gallery of random posts.

The way it should be done is these subsections:

Public Facebook Announcements
A brief description of it, the context behind it, then a blue quotebox with the post in it
For example for the Derpy hooves one it'd be like
"On (date), Chris posted a Facebook post showing his dismay for the removal of my little pony: friendship is magic character Derpy Hooves, who was removed for being a slow-in-the-mind."
[POST HERE - PREFERABLY TYPED]

Savannah Leak
Many of Chris's private Facebook posts were leaked on (date) by a troll posing as Savanah Chandler, as well as his private coversations with her
messages to savannah
Formatted like the emails.
posts
I guess a chronological gallery would suffice but it works a lot better when they're not pictures, it just formats better. The blue quoteboxes exist for that right?

troll leak (I would say like a Miscreant leak or something, but that's just because I love the whole "huge organised troll conspiracy" schtick)
Blue quoteboxes of all the posts - plus notes in italics underneath each one if needed. The ones from twitter could just be formatted into one post.

I would do it but I've got work and college and stuff. I still may do but I'm not promising anything.
 
"for Chris's Facebook posts after 2011, see Facebook Saga".
To be honest, people use the word saga too liberally. If Chris was making videos again, would anybody speak of YouTube Saga? Facebook is just another mean by which Chris addresses the public. What we were able to see there, was The GAMe PLACe Saga and the very end (?) of Jackie Saga, and other things that doesn't belong to any saga. If you want to ascribe them to one cathegory, The CWC Exile Saga II or something along these lines would be better.

That, right there.

Enthusiasm, for lack of a better word, is understood but that word is thrown around entirely too much for whatever reason and I say this as someone who's followed Chris for over four years now. Not everything is a "saga" or falls into a "saga."

Alan has the right idea and it's also simple.
 
The videos are classified by date, style, topic, saga, and shirt. Why not do something similar to that?

I like this idea, of course doing this for literally every post would lead to hundreds of pages on the wiki covering the fact that Chris was sad on this particular day at this particular time, but if we remove his blatant sympathy-mongering and place them together on a page (titled Facebook Sympathy-Mongering or similar?) then it would be possible to not only see the posts chronologically but there would also be plenty of space to explain their content in the context of Chris' facebook life.

Group them like that, give them a navigation like videos, make an index and point out significant ones.
