Hall of fame threads?

[pianoman]

WPIX -- what a seriously cool thread! Remember WPIX-FM Braodcasts (1979)?

Which brings me to a question....

The WPIX thread, the Miles Davis thread Another Kind of Blue - the Latin Side of Miles Davis / The Remotester's thread and probably many others I'm unaware of would be of great interest to those who would have no way of finding them unless/until the thread is bumped, like these ones. I wonder if there is a way or if anyone would be interested in developing a mechanism where threads such as this get archived and tagged somehow as "hall of fame" or similar.

What do others think?

This sounds like an interesting concept. Let me think about it.

What would be considered "hall of fame" material?
I feel the WPIX thread would, but I'm not sure if the "Miles" thread is because the record is a Miles tribute and not Miles...
Maybe in a few years it could be considered "hall of fame" material.
Or should it be consider a HOF thread today?
Should HOF entries be based on the thread content or the status of the event or persons involved?

Does anyone else have a thought or thread to add to the hall of fame tag?

I placed a hall of fame tag on this and the WPIX thread for starters.

What do you folks think about all this?

[Remoteness]

I just added a bunch of "hall of fame" tags to a few threads.

I also, created a "Best of RPIAM&LR" tag.

If you folks see a thread that you feel needs one of these tags post it here or PM me and I will add it if it's applicable.

this is not a thread about location recording/acoustic music, but i always have thought the thread, 'Q for Paul Frindle' from the mastering forum is worthy of 'Hall of Fame' status, even though it is not that old:

it is so full of useful info that it's incredible to me......

I hear you loud and clear.
My I suggest for you to bring this up to the Mastering Forum moderators.
IMO, a "best of mastering" tag would be very cool.

I really want to keep our tags close to home.
If we don't there will be a lot of cross searches between the various forums...
If we're searching on the remote forum do we really want to gather threads from other forums?
This is why I name the tags like I do. Most folks will use the plural. IE: Mics instead of mic; Speakers instead of speaker; et cetera, etc.

[Remoteness]

Remember, if you have a thread (from this forum please) that should get a "best of..." or "hall of fame" tag let me know.

If it makes sense I'll make it so.

Does it sound fair to you folks?
