Sandbox I, as we all know, has a 300 MB storage limit maximum. It is now sitting pretty at 298.81 MB of total storage. Sandbox I is used by a handful of people at most, but the people who use it generally like the nostalgia factor of it or using their old sandboxes. I'd like to free up that gap a little bit, just make a little wiggle room for the people who use it. My specific idea was to take a bunch of files from a few sandboxes that have a lot of uploaded files and move them to equivalent pages over on Sandbox II, then link the images from II back to I. I took a quick little stroll through the sandbox and picked up on a few sandboxes with slightly larger file usage to move. I'll do the legwork myself if need be, but it'd be limited mostly to these sandboxes:
Roget's (11.44 MB)
Veerdin's (3.43 MB)
Smapti's (2.36 MB)
Eskobar's (2.05 MB) (y'know, fairness's sake and all)
Crayne's (989.32 KB)
Von Pincier's (973.85 KB)
Chubert's (937.4 KB)
I'm coming here with the idea of doing this by staff fiat because a) the finished product should be functionally indistinguishable for the benefit of the end user and b) it's way, way, way faster than asking individual permission. I tried to pick out veterans and staff for the most part, since I figured they've created enough stuff that the inconvenience is more of a minor bump than anything. And I included myself in the mix for consistency's sake. If anybody knows of any pages with a ton of giant, heavy files on it that could be moved or deleted (OR IF ANYONE WANTS TO MOVE OR DELETE THEIR OWN SANDBOX PAGES INDEPENDENTLY OF THIS), that would be great.
