Happy 10/10/10

Double Ten Day is, really, unrelated—but we don't appear to have a cool pic for this one

I suppose I should've timed this message at 10:10:10 too, but frankly, I can't be arsed. You know how it is.

Did you know... that tenten in Japaense writing are a little wiggly thing, a bit like a quotation-mark, which makes e.g. "ka" (か) into "ga" (が) or "fu" (ふ) into "bu" (ぶ) ?

So, take time out to have a bit of a giggle.

All the best, and 10-10 'till we do it again.  Chzz  ►  08:49, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Pros and cons of adding 1,000,000 articles to the list

I've opened a discussion to discuss the merits and flaws of reporting French and German Wikipedias as having one million articles.

See Talk:Main Page#Proposal: Add million-article level to Wikipedia Languages section.

Just FYI, regarding the sudden burst of vandalism on Human trafficking, what's going on is that someone started a thread on /b/ asking what article to troll; see [1] while it lasts. -- Limulus (talk) 20:24, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

New thread [2] new target: Best Korea (currently redirects to North Korea but that's semi-protected, so they fail ;) -- Limulus (talk) 21:04, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Notification

Please see Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment#Request_to_amend_prior_case:_Koavf. This request was initiated by Koavf, but as far as his contributions show, he didn't notify any user...so I'm notifying you because you participated in the discussion that led to the community sanction.

Magazines

Of course magazines can be reliable sources. I should have not supported the RFA, or could have withdrawn support at some point. Thank you for the correction. I will try to be more careful in the future. --Diannaa (Talk) 20:02, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Ping

Did you get my email? We need award graphics- reusing last year's would be great, but do we have graphics for each of the awards we'll be giving this year? I'm gonna be sending stuff out late this evening- perhaps if you could leave notes on the page in my userspace? J Milburn (talk) 11:01, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
