Secret Collect STUFF

Hi OptimisticFool. After I saw your comment and re-read my own comments, I realized that my first Arg For actually would significantly add value to the Fun Fact itself. So I revised the fact. You might want to take a look and see if your own comments and/or vote still stand based on the new text.

Thanks for participating! :) — Image:kskunk_fstandby.gif KieferSkunk (talk) — 18:27, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Re: edit summary

"Shouldn't the filename be given the date of the 12th, too?"

Meh, at this point it's not really worth it. It's more of an internal thing now; the Oct 11 date in the file is not really displayed prominently on any pages. I think we can survive with it. Good question, though. —BazookaJoe 15:04, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

The red exclamation points on the recent changes page mean that edit has not been patrolled. If you click on the (diff) link beside the edit, it will show the previous edit, and what was changed. If that edit has not been patrolled, that is looked at by another set of eyes, there will be link that says [Marked as patrolled]. This is done to check for vandalism or bad edits, and I understand that Wikipedia will be launching a similar system. wbwolf (t | ed) 04:48, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
