My apologies if this is redundant, I don't follow this mailing list.
As of the moment of my typing, addresses of the form:
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo
give a 404 error. Since every link in ths system is of this form, that
means things are broken. :-(
However, address of the form
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki.cgi?Foo
work.
Has there been a recent httpd rules change ?
Thanks,
-- Pat

Hey there
first off: great work with wikipedia. I am honestly awed at how much content
has evolved in only half a year.
Is there any chance of getting a Wikipedia IRC channel up, or is there
already one that I don't know about?
I think it would be really interesting to see what kind of collaboration
would come out of it.
BTW. it is at the moment impossible for me to WikiOff at all, anyone else
having problems at this time?
Also i'd like to know how often the RecentUpdates page gets updated
bye,

To me, the Tony Blair article (http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki.cgi?Tony_Blair)
is horribly biased, but I can't trust my instincts since I'm a moderate
supporter of some of his policies.
Can someone from outside the UK offer an opinion on its NeutralPointOfView.
Cheers

Larry, your kuro5hin article is now mentioned on the front page of
slashdot (http://slashdot.org/) as well. We can expect the flood of
traffic to increase. :-) (and that may explain the edit-lock error I
encountered earlier?)

Hey Toan, I don't know where the articles are stored! I don't know what's
under the hood.
I'm forwarding this to Wikipedia-L to get their input. It's definitely
seems to be a problem, knowing exactly what text to grab...you programmers
no doubt have a better idea than I do. But anyway we want to send out, to
all interested subscribers, a random Wikipedia article (hopefully, not a
/Talk page, but in the beginning that won't matter) via e-mail.
Larry

Please see http://www.kuro5hin.org for an article, written by me, that you
might find interesting. It is right now on the front page. It represents
my current thinking on the future of Wikipedia. I am still optimistic, as
you'll see.
