myrmidon

It is absolutely a constructive clarification that Myrmidon was the result of Zeus raping his mother. It's an important point and frequently glossed over. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.4.174.146 (talk) 07:43, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

FLC Bot

Hey! Long time no talk. Can you please check if the bot is doing the FLC tasks on time? Several users have complained that it doesn't. I think you can make an update to it and have it run each 12 hours instead of once a day. What do you think? Cheers! — ΛΧΣ²¹ 18:56, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

Huggle 3

Hey Vacation9! I am Petrb, one of core developers of Huggle, the antivandalism tool, which you are beta testing (according to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members#Beta_testers). I am happy to announce that Huggle 3 is ready for some testing. You can read more about it at WP:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta. Please keep in mind that this is a development version and it is not ready for regular use. That means you must:

Watch your contribs - when anything happens you didn't want, fix it and report a bug
Frequently checkout source code and build latest version, we change it a lot

If you find any problem with a feature that is supposed to work perfectly, please let us know. Some features are not ready yet, it is listed in known problems on Huggle3 beta page, you don't need to report these - we know it! So, that's it. Have fun testing and please let us know about any problems, either using bugzilla @ http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ or #huggle ^connect.
