Of course; we should be depending on other sites being up
and unchanged for our content.

It's an external link to an image at gimp-savvy.com, which appears
to be down at the moment. We shouldn't be linking to external
images anyway. We should find the image there (when the site is
up again), or get it directly from NOAA where they got it, and
upload it (perhaps after cropping and scaling as appropriate), then
link to it locally.0
I went to the Testudines page and it had just a picture, so I taxonomized it.
I left the picture there, but I don't see it anymore, even though there's an
<img> tag in the HTML. Anyone know what's happening?

I know Pierre; he's a fellow Lojbanist, and he answers his mail.
Although I tend to disagree with his tolerance of quack medicine
and some other things, I'll make him a sysop if no one else objects.

The "move this page" feature currently has a bug that resets the
timestamp for all old edits to the current time. Another bug in the
history list function causes most of the edits to disappear when looking
at the history for a page that has been moved this way, as the edits
were being sorted by timestamp... the edit that should terminate the
list comes up first instead, and it's prematurely cut off.
I've just submitted to CVS fixes for these to special_movepage.php and
special_dohistory.php; I highly recommend that at least these two files
be updated on the running 'pedia as soon as possible, and that people
refrain from using the "move" feature until this is done.
Note that old edits and authorship information are _not_ lost from the
database, but the times that the edits were made are lost.

If this is something that just been discovered recently when
someone did a lot more page moving, we can recover that info
easily enough--we did a complete tarball on 5/20--there may be
more recent backups than that as well (ask Jason).

Windows Media Audio. More proprietary then MP3, more sucky than OGG,
less supported than many, many other things.
Should **almost** be banned on grounds of:
1) Copyright infringment: most are likely to be CD tracks
2) Completely unsuitable format: only readable by Windows without
conversion
