05:15.59cruciallycharitwo: that is sad
05:16.05cruciallycharitwo: but that happened in the old skin too
05:16.10cruciallyi didn't think the new skin used sprites
05:16.58pcjit doesn't, charitwo is insane
05:18.35charitwoyes it does, and i tried on a couple different languages too

20:18.37winksanyone of you read about the current mayhem with the german wikipedia?
20:18.49winksor is that really just a local thing?
20:19.33Osehuh?
20:19.42*** join/#wowwiki Arkaen (n=chatzill@75.97.52.6.res-cmts.sebh.ptd.net)
20:20.25Kasowinks, I had not heard, whats going on?
20:20.48winksto sum it up: Ever since 2003 the German wikipedia is led by deletionists more than inclusionists
20:21.06winkslike in en.wp you always have /Homer_Simpson as an article
20:21.27winksin de that is always a redirect to /Simpsons#Characters_Homer or something
20:21.48winksand everything deemed not up to the standards of webster's or somthing is deleted
20:22.01winksand recently (it was no new thing) this has been exaggerated
20:22.20winksand for example an article about a famous German blog was deleted
20:22.51winksbecause the guy spoke abiut some other legal entity (related to and opposing our web censorship debate lately)
20:23.03winksand THAT was deleted, because it wasn't "relevant enough"
20:23.12winksand so it went on and on and on
20:23.36winksthen there was even a "staged" panel discussion with wikimedia germany and some bloggers and journalists
20:24.02Kasostaged how
20:24.06winksand the CCC (CHaos Computer Club if you've heard of it) is also a bit involved. or better, some well-known- members
20:24.27winksthey only invited moderate people and not the guys with other opinions
20:24.32winkseven forbid one journalist to enter
20:25.02winksand now recently there have been Requests for Deletion for half of all the articles about the CCC
20:25.08winksall "not relevant"
20:25.32Kasowow
20:25.43Kasothats pretty blatant,
20:25.59winksso if you wanna agitate, you could say as revenge all articles which relate to memes, internet and hacker culture and stuff is erequested for deletion
20:26.01Kasoi know the CCC and they are definitely relevant
20:26.06winkswell not the CCC itself
20:26.10winksbut the local groups
20:26.13winksor events they had
20:26.25winkswhich were maybe not so big, indeed
20:26.30Kasolike articles for congress and camps etc?
20:26.30winksbut bigger than some wikimedia events
20:26.34winksyeah
20:26.35winkssec
20:27.00winkshttp://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:L%C3%B6schkandidaten/11._November_2009#Phone_Operation_Center
20:27.42winksPhone Operation Center, Easterhegg, Chaosnahe Gruppe Wien, Haecksen, Wau Holland Foundation, Tim Pritlove,
20:27.45winksall by the same guy
20:27.53winkswho was also leadin in deleting all the other stuff
20:28.07winksI have to say I'm highly biased against wikipedia here myself
20:28.16winksjust that no one can say I didn't warn you
20:28.19winks:)
20:28.24winksbut it's a bit sad
20:29.09KasoI dont even understand why wikipedia deletes stuff, i mean ok sure it is spam or not encyclopaedic but not notable? who cares hard drive space is cheap, surely its better to have too much than too little
20:29.44winkswell, they don't
20:29.47winksabsolutely not
20:30.05winkswhere I do agree is that every damn character from WoW or the Hitchhiker should not have its own page
20:30.13winksbut not DELETE fucking organizations
20:30.33Osethere's a fine line yes :P
20:30.43winksand the worst part is
20:30.53winksall the deletion requests are only like this:
20:30.55winksrubbish
20:30.58winksWW:XYZ
20:31.01winksWW:XY
20:31.06winksnot notable
20:31.16MasterOfDisguiseohai
20:31.22winkseven our most grumpy wowwiki people are more elaborate
20:31.31winksand we even only delete fanfic n stuff
20:31.44winksonly thing here is WW:DNP
20:31.48winksbut that needs no discussion
20:32.01winksyou read it, you normally know why you were poked
20:32.09winksand if not, you can ask
20:32.14winksbut it's not instantly deleted
20:32.22winksit's sad
20:32.53winkswiki(m|p)edia also has this point that there's only "a few bloggers crying"
20:33.04winksyes, there wasn't much in any print medium
20:33.16winksbut many renown news sites had articles
20:34.02winksit even led to my latest famous joke
20:34.13winkswhat's large, grey and not important?
20:34.17winksthe irrelevant
20:34.36winks(even a tad funnier with German pronunciation)
20:34.52winksaaaanyways
20:35.05winksI'm glad wowwiki is more like wp_en
20:35.07winks:P
20:35.28Osewowwiki and enwp are no fun :(
20:35.50Oseprefers taming "wild" wikis :P

22:02.32Sandwichman2448Is there a policy or guideline that says it is bad to re-open discussions that are long dead?
22:03.06common_senseyes, me
22:03.43Sandwichman2448You fail.
22:03.58Sandwichman2448You are not a rule, and never will be!
22:04.09common_senselies!
22:04.23common_sensethey even named a style sheet in my honor!
22:05.10Sandwichman2448I do not think that is what it means, if I am thinking of the right thing.
22:07.51*** join/#wowwiki Sandwichman2449 (n=cyrillpi@142.231.101.97.cfl.res.rr.com)
22:09.15Sandwichman2448Anyways, common sense would solve many things, but it can not be used as backing for any action on the wiki.
22:09.31Sandwichman2448Fandyllic is gone... however...
22:10.52Sandwichman2448It still would be wrong.
22:12.26Sandwichman2448If an ass comes along and exploits it, then we would need an anti-ass policy, and then who says who is an ass? Policy needs to be objective, but upkeep can not wane because of it.
22:13.01Sandwichman2448As I have said before, I hate subjectivity.
22:15.41Sandwichman2448I will start a forum thread, and seef if anyone has a good loophole.
