On Talk:Main Page there is a comment about giving modification rights on the main page to more people, now that Larry's participation is sporadic (and Jimbo's always was). It is getting rather out of date, and I'm sure there are a few other folks we can trust not to screw it up too badly.
In a related subject, I'm also wondering about the "page titles to be deleted" listing. When was the last time someone with admin access went through the ones listed and cleaned out the derserving?
And when is the page link database going to get updated, so that the Orphans, Pages That Link Here, and Most Wanted pages will again be useful? Last I saw on the bug report page: "We introduced new separate tables for the linking information, but they were only filled with a tiny fraction of the actual links. This is mainly due to me not telling Jimbo clearly enough what he should do. I've given him new instructions now and hopefully Jimbo gets around soon to redo the procedure soon. Apologies for the inconvenience. --Jan Hidders 2002 Feb 27 "
Not meaning to sound demanding, of course, but that particular bit of housekeeping is starting to get in the way of some of the stuff I've been doing.
