Switching off all these nice little functions which are not absolutely necessary for editing? for example "this page was accessed xx times", "what links here"... There is really a need for first Aid measures. The english wikipedia may not have this problem, but the other language wikipedias are in desperate need of every editor and with every lag we run the risk of loosing valuable contributors. For later (since I don't understand anything of programming I just throw my ideas in and leave it to the experts to judge them as rubbish or think about them - there is a common saying in German about blind chickens ;-)): recently I found an article about database replication in a German PHP-magazine (two mysql databases, one working as master, one as slave). Maybe we could use such a slave database for reading access to wikipedia and the main for editing. greetings, elian My obedit (obligatory edit) for this posting: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_II. -- "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
