sick idea

[Mukandpuria]

even since i started reading POL I always thought it would be a sick idea if the organization or competitions had a separate information page, that is different from the default users information page.

For example

when we click on the competitions information it takes them to their profile that is different. like it has their logo, their colors, information about their competition, previous dates and winners of competition, contact info, e-board members, pictures.

I think if BTF had this customization, more competitions will get into BTF and people will come to BTF for information dates and so on. Also Instead of having people ask what competitions there are. you have have a link that has all the competitions listed.

I just think the competition profiles should look different because they are not a person but a organization. This will also help the search and BTF will come up more. because when people look to buy tickets or look up information on a compeition, BTF will come up. Think about it lets say there are 10 major bhangra competitions, 3,000 for each. thats 130,000 people and lets say %10 actually search for the competitions because they don't know where to buy tickets. thats 13,000 people that might hit on BTF.

any ideas on this. Saleem do you think this is possible ?

just a taught ...

yeh I was thinking the same thing but making profile might be hard..you can make a Header for the forums under the banner links for upcoming competitions and redirect them to this new forum where admin/moderators can make topics...in those topics just have the information about the competition like Abhishek said.

So, essentially you want a bhangra version of Desi Dance Teams?

yea something like Desi Dance Teams...so this way its more organized and Saleem don't have to keep updating it, the organization can do it

lol i agree it does have some value to organize that info and present it. i would need some help in implementing anything like that. i do think that for any large scale competition, their website will easily take a higher spot than BTF. It's only the small ones that don't have websites that you'll find them here. and that's not necessarily a bad thing: this is a good place to find hard-to-get info as long as it's centralized. think of it as medium-term plans for BTF Again any volunteers to help lol
