Fandom Directories: A Change And A Request

needsaparrotTwo comms that people may not be aware of because they don't get used nearly as much as originally intended are ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fh_directory and ft_directory. The FH Directory was used for brief entries, like a telephone book, for students and teachers. The FT Directory contained the same for townies, plus information about the island and descriptive entries about each business in town, listing owner, hours, services, etc.
The character entries in these comms have tended not to get used (or updated) because the information is available (and required) on each character's user info. Therefore we're going to discontinue usingfh_directory entirely, and limit ft_directory to the island info and the Business Pages. Hopefully this will be more useful for everyone, and easier for us all to keep up to date.
The request: we need you to help us update that part!
Townies who are business owners: please check the business tag onft_directory for your business. If it's not there, please fill out the business form here, so we can get everything up to date.
If your business is listed, but needs updates, just leave a screened comment on its individual entry letting us know what changes need to be made, and we'll correct it.
People who work at NPC-owned businesses: likewise, please check the entry for your job and make sure you're listed correctly. Leave us a note there if you're not, and we'll fix it.
Everybody who lives in town: Please check the Town Listing page to see if your character is listed at the proper residence. If not, again, just leave a comment to that page, and we'll get that updated!
Love, Your Admins Who Need Coffee. Or questions or comments, those are ok too.
