[00:01:58] Sometimes hate my OCD [00:03:51] dmehus: ^ [05:16:05] Congrats on your ArbCom election, enterprisey. Very happy to see you ran :) <-- thank you! [05:16:20] there's a lot of work :) [05:16:34] feels like I'm being expected to write game of thrones fanfiction without having read any of the books [05:16:46] (or watched any episodes of the TV series) [05:27:33] enterprisey, yeah... ArbCom is a lot of work, lots of reading, lots of analyzing, interpreting, and then the writing! [05:27:48] but it's nice to see someone with your technical background on ArbCom [05:27:53] you don't see that often [05:30:19] true. I think it's amusing that there are other sitting arbs who are bot ops but I get the Mister Tech Man title [05:30:48] I think user script authors get an excessive amount of visibility, though excessive by what measure I don't know [05:31:33] oh true [05:31:38] I did forget about Primefac [05:32:32] I think they get that increased visibility because if their tools are useful, they're so appreciated, and you also get a lot of users requesting features or reporting bugs [05:33:03] but yeah, the extent to which the level of increased visibility is warranted is not known [05:33:48] and I mean your Reply-link script was basically the inspiration for the DiscussionTools extension [05:34:29] yes, one's name does get out there quite a lot [05:34:37] yeah [05:34:54] funny how that works. in normal companies connection to the "product" makes you internally famous, and working on internal stuff makes you famous but less so [05:35:08] but on wikipedia there's no mechanism for the former, besides internal project awards [05:35:32] yeah [05:36:29] I guess interface administrators get some of that, by virtue of being able to implement gadget improvements, but to be an interface administrator, you first need to demonstrate the technical competency required, so that usually comes from writing user scripts [05:37:51] JohnLewis is one of the co-founders of Miraheze and developed our ManageWiki and CreateWiki extensions. CosmicAlpha also did a lot of the more recent improvements to those extensions too, and also developed our RemovePII extension that is used by our Trust and Safety team for handling required requests [18:48:51] Hello Rots61! If you have any questions, feel free to ask and someone should answer soon. [20:30:31] Hello lingua! If you have any questions, feel free to ask and someone should answer soon. [20:30:37] Hello guys [20:31:11] I got this message from noreply@miraheze.org: "Hello, Unfortunately, due to your wiki not having edits in the last 60 days, it has been closed due to the Dormancy Policy. If you would still like to edit your wiki please go to Special:ManageWiki and uncheck the "closed" box to reopen it. Please note that if you do not reopen your wiki it is possible [20:31:11] that another user will adopt your wiki. If you do not reopen your wiki or no one adopts your wiki in 6 months starting from now, it could be eligible for deletion." [20:32:00] But when I go to Special:ManageWiki, I only can find the "closed box" already unchecked. [20:32:33] lingua Was it a bug or something? [20:33:18] I am not sure [20:34:04] let us know the name of the wiki? [20:34:37] https://linguaexmachina.miraheze.org/ [20:34:41] [url] Lingua Ex Machina | linguaexmachina.miraheze.org [20:36:29] What I wanted to ask was, should I reopen the wiki then if I want to continue the wiki? If so, how exactly should I do to reopen it? I think the "Dormancy Policy" page are not very helpful on what I should do in this case... [20:37:20] paladox: could you check if that wiki above is closed or not? [20:37:36] lingua: hold on, asking for you [20:37:58] it doesn't show as closed to me. [20:38:22] despites the email I got, there is no sign of being closed above [20:41:09] RhinosF1: CosmicAlpha ^ [20:41:42] Looking [20:43:09] Cons talk contribs block changed the settings (active) for "linguaexmachinawiki" ‎(open) — yesterday so it was closed. [20:43:58] lingua, paladox: ^ [20:44:01] Oh, I may of put an high load on the server due to mass making 500+ pages over 2 days [20:44:12] ah [20:46:30] oh... so it is now open, right? [20:47:24] Yes. [20:47:43] Thank you very much! [21:22:24] dmehus: what is arbcom [21:33:41] arbitration committee I assume [21:38:46] @raidarr You got that correct. And I know dmehus isn't responding at the moment, assuming he went back to work today.
