00:12 < Mdann52> No need to worry about it for very long
00:13 < Mdann52> Matthew_, No, looks normal to me
00:13 < Matthew_> Hmmm... well then what is it? I've never seen it before.
00:14 < Mdann52> What does it look like?
00:14 -!- rr0 [kvirc@wikipedia/ruslik0] has joined #wikipedia-en
00:14 < Matthew_> It's grey with six icons arranged vertically. It's on the right side of the screen.
00:15 < Mdann52> Absolutely no idea
00:16 < Matthew_> Aha, I just started clicking: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Page_Curation/Help#PageInfo
00:17 < jorm> you're in curation mode.
00:18 < jorm> you can exit it by clicking the x icons.
00:18 < Matthew_> What is it, though?
00:18 < jorm> it's an alternative to twinkle.
00:18 < jorm> it's designed (currently) for new page patrolling.
00:19 < jorm> did you go to Special:NewPagesFeed anytime recently? that will drop you into curation mode.
00:19 < TeeTylerToe> you have entered... the scary door
00:19 < Matthew_> jorm: I didn't, although the article is freshly created.
00:19 < jorm> those icons are tools to help with page patrolling.
00:19 < jorm> interesting.
00:19 < jorm> you shouldn't be in curation mode without specifically triggering it.
00:19 < jorm> i'll bring this up tomorrow; find out what's up.
00:20 < jorm> you're autoconfirmed, i assume.
00:20 < jorm> this was deployed today.
00:20 < Matthew_> Yes. I just thought I had spyware. That's actually kind of cool.
00:21 < jorm> the fact that you're seeing it without triggering it is probably a bug.
00:21 < jorm> i think it's a great tool, btw.
00:22 < Matthew_> It does seem to be a good tool, doing some poking. Will it be enabled for all articles, or just new pages?
00:22 -!- thomas is now known as \irc
00:24 < jorm> currently, you should see it on all articles if you are in curation mode, but it may not be useful.
00:24 < jorm> the design is for new pages, though.
00:24 < jorm> in the future, we'll be seeing more curation tools for existing pages (tagging mechanisms, etc.) and namespace-specific changes (e.g., the File: namespace)
00:25 -!- Mdann52 is now known as Mdann52_away
00:25 < jorm> but those improvements are probably several months off, as the development team is going to be refocusing on other projects (Echo and Flow, to be precise)

00:29 < jorm> no worries! i think you found a bug, that's all.

00:30 < Matthew_> Heh, great. One less thing to find when it comes out of beta :)

00:51 < geniice> £1700 for a tilt shift lens?
00:51 < sonia> geniice, lensbaby?
00:51 < geniice> doesn't matter. I'm not going to buy one at anywhere near that price
00:52 < geniice> I'll just wait for affordable quadcopters with a decent lifting capacity
00:52 < sonia> geniice, I was asking what lens you were looking at :P
00:53 < sonia> I honestly think a tilt shift lens would be too much work myself. I barely even bother to use a zoom lens or do anything other than focus.
00:53 < geniice> Canon TS-E 24mm lens mk2
00:54 < geniice> sonia well if you want to avoid zooming there are always fixed primes
00:54 < sonia> yep.
00:54 < sonia> I pretty much never take my 30mm pancake off now.
00:54 -!- Jamietw [~Jamietw@wikimedia/Jamietw] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
00:55 < sonia> what were you wanting a tilt-shift for? I'm still not very clear as to specific places they'd be useful
00:55 < sonia> (I'd love a fisheye to play with, actually, if I were going for uncommon lenses - instant panorama once perspective correction was done)
00:55 < geniice> well Coventry mostly but there are a few castles and churches that one would be of use for
00:56 < geniice> there are some very affordable wide angle setups. I've not really looked into fisheye
00:57 < geniice> Canon EF 8-15mm fisheye lens is no worse than my telephoto cost wise. but I can't see what I would do with it

01:03 < geniice> don't sigma make lenses for that setup?
01:03 < sonia> do they?
01:05 < geniice> hmm google suggests not
01:06 -!- Mdann52 [~androirc@wikipedia/Mdann52] has quit [Quit: Changing client]
01:06 < geniice> best bet appears to be various adapters
01:07 -!- p858snake|l [~p858snake@unaffiliated/p858snake] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
01:09 < sonia> yep.
01:09 < sonia> k-mount lenses are supposed to work well on it, as do old leica screw-mount ones, with adapters
01:10 < sonia> but I honestly can't afford many lenses anyway, not with shipping and customs tax (they seriously do not sell them here.)
01:11 < geniice> well thats what happens once you move away from canikon
01:11 < sonia> pretty much ;p
01:11 -!- Jamietw [~Jamietw@wikimedia/Jamietw] has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
01:12 < sonia> I'm very small, and my primary priority was something with an aps-c sensor but small and light, compact enough to pocket. combined with price, the fact I could get nx100 + kit lens (which is actually quite good bar no OIS) + flash for $300 kinda sealed the deal
01:12 < sonia> there's a samyang fisheye for the system, but at the moment the 30mm is all I ever use anyway so *shrugs*
01:13 < geniice> I've got a Micro Four Thirds systen but never really looked into buying more lens for it
01:13 < sonia> of course /now/ canon comes out with the EOS M
01:13 < sonia> although that won't be of much use for portability until more lenses come out that don't require the adapter, since that makes it not very compact any more
01:13 < geniice> not sure how well that will do
01:13 < sonia> the specs on it look fairly good though
01:14 < sonia> but I can't see that, without lenses, it'd appeal to many except people who want to share lenses with another system/family member and don't care about size (in which case why not go for a 600D, really)
01:14 < geniice> the reality is that there have been previous attempts at sub asp-C system and they haven't seen much use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Sensor_sizes_overlaid_inside.svg

01:15 < geniice> no. I'm currently using a full frame system so the smaller stuff is a bit off my radar
01:16 < sonia> it's somewhat ridiculous.
01:16 < sonia> okay, very ridiculous.

01:16 < sonia> tiny sensor, brags about being the smallest interchangeable lens camera.
01:17 < sonia> and it *is* small, almost too small to handle - but with that sensor size and the last-gen megapixel count and a price equivalent to a student DSLR - really?
01:17 < geniice> I seem to recall someone made a actual DSLR with a compact sensor
01:18 < sonia> hmm. now I'm wondering if I could hack an old film SLR to use a compact sensor and write to SD card.
01:18 < sonia> I'm sure there'd be some hipsters who'd buy it for the look of the camera alone, but it can't be an easy task.
01:18 < geniice> been tried
01:18 < sonia> has it?

02:19 < TeeTylerToe> that is a pretty bad article, and the reference is just a link to london2012.org or whatever
02:19 < TeeTylerToe> the homepage
02:20 < Pine> geniice: you have a reliable source saying she is pretty?
02:20 < geniice> Pine google images?
02:21 < Pine> That is not a reliable source.
02:21 < Pine> There needs to be a scientific study or survey of some kind.
02:21 < TeeTylerToe> that's original research you naughty wikipedian you
02:21 < Pine> I agree.
02:21 < Pine> No original research on the prettiness of Olympians.
02:21 < geniice> eh see http://www.bz-berlin.de/sport/olympia-2012/gewichtheben-kann-so-schoen-sein-article1511459.html

02:25 < TeeTylerToe> also the prettiest
02:25 < Pine> "According to a survey of IRC commentators in Freenode, she is pretty."
02:26 < TeeTylerToe> also according to google translate, "Not only the fans saw the big eyes."

08:16 < wctaiwan> Isarra: you looked like a baby chimpanzee when you were a few months old.
08:16 < Frood> http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Field_hockey_at_the_2012_Summer_Olympics_%E2%80%93_Women%27s_team_squads&action=history
08:16 < foks> Oh.
08:16 < foks> :p
08:17 < Isarra> Probably the best I ever looked.
08:17 < Frood> and now the other one is going to game the system
08:17 < Frood> and revert in 24 hours
08:17 < wctaiwan> Frood: you seem to be enjoying this.
08:17 * Frood goes to 3RRN
08:17 < Frood> wctaiwan: i am
08:18 < Isarra> So it's not a revert war if they wait 24 hours between reverts?
08:18 < Frood> Isarra: it is, but they don't violate the 3RR that way.
08:19 < foks> both blocked anyway boyo
08:19 < wctaiwan> they still do.
08:19 < Frood> They do, though, game the system
08:19 < wctaiwan> gaming the system counts as 3RR.
08:19 < Frood> and that's not allowed
08:19 < wctaiwan> iirc.
08:19 < Frood> foks: you're still my favorite admin.
08:19 < Isarra> So what if the reverts take about a month and this goes on for about a year?
08:19 * foks grins.
08:20 < foks> Isarra, it's still edit warring in that case.
08:20 < Frood> Isarra: slow moving edit wars are still edit wars
08:20 < Isarra> They're just funnier edit wars?
08:20 < Frood> you don't have to violate the 3rr to be in an edit war
08:20 < foks> I only blocked for 24hours though. :/
08:20 < Isarra> I found it pretty amusing to watch that one.
08:20 < foks> The guy on the talkpage says "I'll revert again in 24 hours"
08:20 < foks> it's like he knew o:
08:20 < Isarra> Block him.
08:20 < Frood> he is blocked
08:21 < Isarra> ...more.
08:21 < Frood> indef?
08:21 < Isarra> Seems like overkill.
08:21 < wctaiwan> ...
08:21 < wctaiwan> can we not talk about blocks on IRC?
08:21 < wctaiwan> I find it to be in bad taste.
08:21 < Isarra> Block wctaiwan.

10:45 < Ironholds> and every hour or so, a cron job automatically scans the list, and if something has been moved out of those namespaces, removes it
10:45 < Ironholds> the issue here was that all the moves were in like, 20, 30 minutes, and it ended up at the same location as it started in
10:46 < Ironholds> so they started moving after cron1 ended, and before cron2 started. so it never happened, for all intents and purposes :)

12:28 < BarkingFish> SigmaWP, the first thing that came into my mind was what you see above. If the brain realizes it can survive without stimulating the response to breathe - which it will, given that it's not stimulating breathing, but still receiving oxygen, why would it return to stimulating breathing when whatever caused the respiratory failure was corrected?
12:28 < SigmaWP> Because you'll die otherwise

12:30 < BarkingFish> SigmaWP, not to the brain's way of thinking. It's getting oxygen without stimulating the neural response to trigger breathing :P

12:32 < jeremyb> lol
12:33 < BarkingFish> SigmaWP, so you think it would kick in again when it realizes the oxygen has stopped, and trigger local respiration again?

12:47 * Vito_away takes a look at jeremyb's centralauth
12:47 < BarkingFish> that was the issue, Dcoetzee - single source. I wanted to understand whether multiple refs from the same newspaper still counted as single source, or whether different days counted as different sources

12:48 < Dcoetzee> BarkingFish: The articles may be written by different authors (or may not be - see if you can find that out). Either way, any editorial bias in the newspaper could be showing through in both examples.
12:48 < Dcoetzee> The end result is that it's better than a single source, and worse than two clearly distinct sources.
12:48 < BarkingFish> right. Well I know the two refs have different authors, that's a start

13:13 < BarkingFish> yeah - I thought that when I first saw the work on it, Dcoetzee
13:13 < Dcoetzee> BarkingFish: It seems like it's not permanently installed so no FOP?
13:14 < BarkingFish> My initial reaction was "if I saw that kid alone on the beach, like that, I'd have probably gone and asked what was wrong." I had no idea it was a sculpture till i read on, and found out it was nearly 5ft tall.
13:14 < BarkingFish> Dcoetzee, no, it's not there anymore.
13:15 < Dcoetzee> BarkingFish: But it's not permanently installed at its present location either?
13:15 < BarkingFish> the realistic nature of it freaked me out.
13:15 < BarkingFish> Dcoetzee, I don't know where it is now
13:16 < BarkingFish> It was on Tamarama beach between October and December 2009, I don't know where the artist moved it to when the exhibition closed
13:16 < russavia> have you tried getting in toich with trefry?

13:41 -!- Vigilante is now known as Watchman
13:41 < Haruspex> or is a "professional" is really needed, whereas curious individuals seems to do fine
13:42 < Dcoetzee> BarkingFish: russavia is right, the artist can release a photo of the work that they have created or commissioned under a suitable contract themselves under a free license without releasing the sculpture under a free license. Alternatively if you can secure free licenses from both the sculptor (for a particular photo) and from the photographer you're good to go. However that would be challenging.
13:42 < ChrisGualtieri> See the 'expert attention needed' tags, professionals are not so readily on hand
13:42 < Haruspex> I think for languages that have many contributors, that should not be an issue
13:43 < SigmaWP> Haruspex: Curious individuals who write from the words of venerated scholars should be fine
13:43 < Dcoetzee> Professionals actually have a history of being terrible Wikipedians.
13:44 < Dcoetzee> Because the scholarly tradition is of course in traditional research, and they often possess a great deal of knowledge without being quite sure where it came from.
13:44 < Haruspex> because of possible inclination?
13:44 < Dcoetzee> *in original research
13:44 < Dcoetzee> However I think they are really valuable for fact checking.
13:44 < Dcoetzee> That takes less of their precious time and they can spot problems easily.
13:45 < Dcoetzee> I think it would be a valuable exercise to launch a "help us fact check your field on Wikipedia" campaign.

14:59 < Dcoetzee> Qcoder02: If they don't that's okay... it's still eligible for FA. I for one know many subject experts who would be happy to review a short article, recognising the importance of Wikipedia as a broadly available popular resource.

15:01 < Dcoetzee> Most professionals already have connections with other professionals, so why not?

15:20 < BlastHardcheese> what protocol would you use
15:20 < Krenair> I think there were proposals to fix it at some point
15:20 < Dcoetzee> I'd propose a raw TCP service providing a continuous XML stream.
15:21 < Dcoetzee> One edit per line, nice and machine readable.
15:21 < Stove> That would be the windows way. And it's alright, but they'd probably go with JSON.
15:21 < Dcoetzee> JSON is fine, whatever :-P
15:21 -!- DeltaQuad [~quassel@wikipedia/DeltaQuad] has joined #wikipedia-en
15:21 < Dcoetzee> Or maybe you issue a request when you connect and you get to pick.
15:21 < Stove> I lean towards XML myself though.
15:22 < Stove> yeah, some filtering would be nice
15:22 < Soapy> supposedly JSON is less bloated than XML
15:22 < Krenair> Why XML?
15:22 < Stove> But I'd like it to filter on catogories, like, engineering stuff only, but as far as I know there are no such categories.

15:24 < TeeTylerToe> xml isn't windows specific
15:24 < Stove> XML in it's bare form is alright, but as soon as they start adding namespaces and lots of options and xds and stuff, it becomes bloated and not human readable.
15:25 < Goldy> Krenair: Like that emoticon: ಠ_ಠ! Cool! :)
15:25 < Krenair> http://lookofdisapproval.info/
15:25 < Dcoetzee> Stove: It's not supposed to be human readable.
15:25 < Soapy> lol
15:26 < Stove> Yes it is...
15:26 < Dcoetzee> You want human readable, you add a client in front of it that prints it all nice.

15:26 -!- Nascar1996 [~Nascar199@wikipedia/Nascar1996] has joined #wikipedia-en
15:26 < Stove> Everything needs to be human readable, for debugging.
15:26 -!- ZT [~pjeterper@unaffiliated/zt] has quit []
15:26 < TeeTylerToe> you could have a program that interprets it for debugging
15:27 < Stove> Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. It is defined in the XML 1.0 Specification[4] produced by the W3C, and several other related specifications,[5] all gratis open standards.[6]
15:27 < Dcoetzee> You write a debugging utility.
15:27 < Stove> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML
15:27 < Dcoetzee> Stove: To clarify XML is supposed to be human readable but we all know that's a lie :-P
15:27 < Stove> In simple forms it's perfectly readable.
15:27 < Stove> More so than SOAP.
15:27 < Soapy> heh
15:28 < Stove> But they're adding all sorts of things which bloat it.
15:28 < Soapy> i was wondering if someone was going to mention SOAP sooner or later
15:28 < Stove> ERRR
15:28 < Stove> I meant JSON
15:28 -!- AndrewN is now known as AndrewN[AFK]
15:28 < Stove> SOAP is an example of how unreadable XML can become.
15:28 < Dcoetzee> Well there's always a tension between simplicity of the language and the complexity of what it can express.
15:29 < Krenair> Quite honestly plain XML would be fine for MediaWiki
15:29 < Dcoetzee> Yeah for a Recent Changes feed a super simple XML schema would be quite sufficient.
15:29 -!- Goldy is now known as Gold2468|BRB
15:29 < Krenair> But I'd prefer JSON for the feed
15:29 < Dcoetzee> Really though, might as well just have the person issuing the request say what they want. Everybody has different programming frameworks, and they work with different data.
15:30 < Andeye> So you are seriously suggesting to skip the IRC feed in order to replace it with a TCP feed in xml, writing debbuging tools and client programs to parse the feed into a more human readable format instead of the perfeclty human readable feed that currently exists? Just curious :)
15:30 -!- mareklug [~mareklug@wikipedia/mareklug] has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds]
15:30 < Krenair> Andeye, only debugging tool you'd need to check the feed itself would be telnet
15:30 < Dcoetzee> Andeye: Am I proposing replacing the human readable feed that is primarily parsed and used by machine with one that's written for machines in the first place? Yes
15:30 < Dcoetzee> Moreover, the IRC feed itself could continue to exist and be built on top of the TCP feed.
15:31 < Dcoetzee> Except it'd be just for people.
15:31 < TeeTylerToe> couldn't you make it rss?
15:31 < Krenair> The feed itself should be readable by machines easily at least, which can then prettify it and show it to a user
15:31 < Dcoetzee> So they wouldn't have to worry about changing format, etc. anymore
15:31 < Krenair> TeeTylerToe, RSS is not a live feed really

15:34 < Stove> Well, I dunno, the IRC has a link, and all the data is on that page really. How much data would you include in the XML feed?
15:34 < Stove> The bots would have to visit the link anyways.
15:34 < Stove> Unless you add all changed lines and stuff in the live feed.
15:35 < Krenair> The current implementation just sends each change through UDP to a server to be broadcast.
15:35 < Krenair> All that'd need to be changed would be the text. Moving out of IRC would be done separately if done at all

16:14 < Soapy> hi Thing
16:14 < Dcoetzee> The_Thing: That's amazing :-S
16:15 < russavia> and particularly drugs which cause euphoria, delirium, hallucinations, and muntedness
16:16 < TeeTylerToe> muntedness?
16:16 < russavia> well muntedness is more a state of mind
16:16 < russavia> but it's a great state of mind to be in

16:18 < ToAruShiroiNeko> mafia is a community after all

16:20 < ToAruShiroiNeko> isnt that {{indefbolocked}} ~~~~
16:20 < TeeTylerToe> a lot of groups do that
16:20 < Dcoetzee> Also the murder, theft, drug running, forced prostititution...
16:20 < ToAruShiroiNeko> Dcoetzee that and they shoot people.
16:20 < ToAruShiroiNeko> Dcoetzee extorsion, human trafficking

18:06 < Soapy> i could totally see myself watching that obsessively when I was a kid
18:06 < kylu> they had a ship called the "Laughingstock" iirc.

18:20 < BarkingFish> Yeah, there was an old version from the 1970s ish, and there was a newer one with that kid that played Karl Kennedy's son in Neighbours
18:21 < kylu> Also: Dangermouse!
18:21 < kylu> that was a bit later though iirc.
18:21 < Qcoder02> There was a 90's (TP) about which I recall not very much apart from it having a typecast Christopher lee in it
18:21 < BarkingFish> I think his character name in Neighbours was todd... Kristian Schmidt iirc

18:22 < Qcoder02> Yeah

18:35 < Dagny> The only TV show that made any impact on child-me was The Animals of Farthing Wood.
18:36 < kylu> Can't say it rings any bells, Dagny. Sorry. :(
18:36 < Qcoder02> I am however aware of some US kids shows by reputation ... Like Sesame Street and Mr Rogers Neighbourhood
18:36 < Dagny> kylu: It was a cartoon about some animals from Farthing Wood (surprise surprise) and when their wood gets destroyed they go on an epic journey to get to Whitedeer park, a nature reserve or something.
18:37 < Qcoder02> Dgany: It was originally a book
18:37 < Dagny> The hedgehogs got ran over crossing a motorway, I remember that too clearly.
18:37 < kylu> QC2: According to WP, you're double correct, as The Third Eye was a rebroadcast of other small series, including... Children of the Stones.
18:37 < Dagny> Qcoder02: Yeah, I never found the book though. Just watched the series avidly as a kid.

18:55 < Frostee> ON WHEELS
18:55 < froodonwheels> Yes.
18:56 < wctaiwan> anyway, I need to go. BarkingFish, basically I think the way it's tagged is fine—doesn't mean you can incorporate a trademark in your designs etc.—but others may disagree.
18:56 < flaiz> You spin me right round, baby
18:56 < flaiz> Right round like a record, baby
18:56 < BarkingFish> wctaiwan, How can something be Public Domain when the rights to it are still owned or copyrighted?
18:56 < BarkingFish> I pulled this from the actual olympic charter
18:56 < BarkingFish> "The Olympic symbol, flag, motto, anthem, identifications (including but not limited
18:56 < BarkingFish> to “Olympic Games” and “Games of the Olympiad”), designations, emblems, flame
18:56 < BarkingFish> and torches, as defined in Rules 8-14 below, may, for convenience, be collectively
18:56 < BarkingFish> or individually referred to as “Olympic properties”. All rights to any and all Olympic
18:56 < BarkingFish> properties, as well as all rights to the use thereof, belong exclusively to the IOC,
18:56 < BarkingFish> including but not limited to the use for any profit-making, commercial or advertising
18:56 < BarkingFish> purposes. The IOC may license all or part of its rights on terms and conditions set forth
18:56 < BarkingFish> by the IOC Executive Board.

18:57 < wctaiwan> eh, I need to go. I'll let others take a look.
18:57 < kylu> more important than quoting charters and laws, it's enforced: http://seattletrademarklawyer.com/
18:57 -!- wctaiwan [~wctaiwan@wikipedia/wctaiwan] has quit []
18:59 < kylu> though if you want U.S. law rather than the charter, http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/36/220506
18:59 < BarkingFish> I disagree that something can be public domain when an organization can claim that it owns all the rights to the item and its usage...
19:00 < kylu> Wait until the USOC files suit with the WMF, then.
19:00 < froodonwheels> It's not . They can renew copyright
19:01 < kylu> not a copyright issue. x.x
19:01 < BarkingFish> kylu, i think it's better that we act on it prior to getting sued :)
19:02 < kylu> BarkingFish: I've developed an appreciation for reading legal claims, lately... except those which pertain to work.
19:03 < kylu> For some reason, simply being paid to be familiar with one seems to take the fun out of it.
19:05 < kylu> for the UK folks, there's also: Olympic Symbol etc. (Protection) Act 1995 (OSPA)
19:05 < ToAruShiroiNeko> BarkingFish Olympic logo is too simple for us to care
19:05 < kylu> Similar to the US 36 USC 220506.

19:06 < ToAruShiroiNeko> not really
19:06 * kylu looks pointedly to ToAruShiroiNeko.
19:06 < ToAruShiroiNeko> this is an issue for commons
19:06 < ToAruShiroiNeko> not #wikipedia-en
19:06 < ToAruShiroiNeko> wikipedia should know its place and not analyse copyright of files :p
19:07 < ToAruShiroiNeko> commonism now!
19:07 < kylu> That file is locally hosted on wp-en also.
19:07 < BarkingFish> that makes it an en.wp issue
19:07 < kylu> so, got citation or do you feel like backing down, kitty?
19:07 -!- mys_721tx [~mys_721tx@wikipedia/mys-721tx] has quit [Quit: leaving]
19:07 < mareklug> ToAruShiroiNeko: yeah, yeah. but when IOC sues us and the damages assessed will shut down Wikipedia, you'll sing a different tune. :)
19:08 < ToAruShiroiNeko> mareklug did we get a DMCA notice?
19:08 < ToAruShiroiNeko> no?
19:08 < ToAruShiroiNeko> move along then.
19:08 < kylu> also... it's not a bloody copyright issue, it's SIMILAR to a trademark issue, but different as it has its very own law.
19:08 < kylu> DMCA refers to copyright, not trademark.
19:08 < ToAruShiroiNeko> kylu I am not seriously saying it cant be discussed here :p
19:08 < ToAruShiroiNeko> trademarks are irrelevant as far as we care
19:09 -!- aoke1989 [~Administr@wikipedia/Aoke1989] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
19:09 < ToAruShiroiNeko> we have no procedure to enforce trademark
19:09 < ToAruShiroiNeko> we made a point to denote trademark but like money thats not a retriction we should care too much about
19:10 < ToAruShiroiNeko> coca cola logo is PD but trademarked
19:10 * Isarra pelts the channel with potatos.
19:10 < kylu> That's lovely, but again, it's not a pure trademark issue either.
19:10 < mareklug> Isarra: did you know that in Peru they have 500 kinda of potato?
19:10 < mareklug> kinds
19:10 * Frostee pelts the potatoes at Isarra again
19:11 < Isarra> They must really like potatoes.
19:11 < ToAruShiroiNeko> kylu I'd like to see the court case where foundation is sued for portraying the olympic logo
19:11 < mareklug> they do. they came up w/ them
19:11 < Frostee> I love potatoes
19:11 < Frostee> in chip form
19:11 < kylu> As I said, both the symbols for the Red Cross/Red Crescent and the Olympics are protected by super-duper special laws that only apply to them.
19:11 < ToAruShiroiNeko> kylu sure
19:11 < kylu> ToAruShiroiNeko: Nah, WMF would fold.
19:11 < ToAruShiroiNeko> secondary uses may infringe/violate such laws
19:12 < ToAruShiroiNeko> kylu sure, WMF may bend over when the time comes
19:12 < ToAruShiroiNeko> but the time has not come
19:12 < ToAruShiroiNeko> also
19:12 < ToAruShiroiNeko> bear in mind that olympic logo is used all over the place
19:12 < ToAruShiroiNeko> commercially
19:13 < ToAruShiroiNeko> and no one complains
19:13 < Qcoder02> Erm
19:13 < Qcoder02> Not in the UK
19:13 < Qcoder02> They sent a load of people out ot make sure
19:13 < ToAruShiroiNeko> any photo of the london bridge on any newspaper infringes trademark and copyright
19:13 < Qcoder02> ;)
19:13 < mareklug> kylu: i'm kinda fond of the educational angle of us having the rings graphic. let's be conservative on getting rid of it unprompted
19:13 < kylu> mareklug: Don't misunderstand, I don't think there's a need to be rid of the graphic...
19:13 < Guerillero> i agree
19:13 < ToAruShiroiNeko> but olympic comittee arent a bunch of dickheads to sue all newspapers
19:14 < kylu> I take exception with there being a PD tag on it and our having stupid readers who may assume the wrong thing.
19:14 < kylu> ToAruShiroiNeko: Just cab companies. :)
19:14 < ToAruShiroiNeko> kylu indeed thats why I reccomend putting {{trademakred}} below it
19:14 < ToAruShiroiNeko> or above it
19:14 < mareklug> but pd tag is what keeps it on commons
19:14 < kylu> 'Cept it's not really trademarked, strictly.
19:14 < ToAruShiroiNeko> it is trademarked
19:15 < ToAruShiroiNeko> people pay money to be able to put the olympic logo on their products during the olympics
19:15 < kylu> Nope, it's enforced via trademark laws, but it's not a registered trademark... they have their own law and own enforcement, and it can be licensed similarly.
19:15 < ToAruShiroiNeko> trademarks do not have to be registered
19:15 * kylu facepalms.
19:16 < ToAruShiroiNeko> I dont care about TM v (R) issues
19:16 * ToAruShiroiNeko gets a coconut from kylu's facepalm tree
19:16 < kylu> y'know what... you're reading the parts of the argument that you want to read and ignoring the rest.
19:16 < ToAruShiroiNeko> yup
19:16 < ToAruShiroiNeko> :p
19:16 < kylu> As I'm no longer a WPian, I'm going to feel free to assume bad faith and regard you as a troll.
19:16 < ToAruShiroiNeko> as you wish
19:16 * kylu goes back to reading.
19:17 < ToAruShiroiNeko> I am going to assume you are a kylu
19:17 < mareklug> kylu: but the template says what you said: "This work contains material which may be subject to trademark laws in one or more jurisdictions….."
19:17 < ToAruShiroiNeko> since you arent a wikipedian you have wasted my time, troll

19:26 < ChrisGualtieri> Well.. I'm done with the projects scan.. I think I've done something special
19:27 < kylu> Demiurge1000: the problem with real life is that when you get out there and start doing things, you get these funny bulges in your arms and aren't quite interested in Hot Pockets anymore.
19:27 < Demiurge1000> I heard some U.S. kid talking a lot about hot pockets last year. In an IRC channel about hurricanes. So yeah, I can imagine...

20:56 < kim_bruning> ChrisGualtieri, yeah, that much is aok
20:57 < kim_bruning> ChrisGualtieri, though it requires a certain level of OCD to want to ;-)

21:10 < kim_bruning> oh well, maybe we'll meet in hong kong? :-P
21:10 < wctaiwan> iff. Isarra and Ironholds get their way.
21:11 < ToAruShiroiNeko> kim_bruning of course

21:12 < kim_bruning> ToAruShiroiNeko, strictly speaking, it wouldn't be a sockpuppet :-P

21:24 < wctaiwan> reinforcing how bad it was was that after he returned to his hotel and I my house, we talked online just fine, about how his hotel wifi was probably insecure and monitored. I even tried to offer some advice on how to get VPN to work (we didn't manage).
21:25 < wctaiwan> (that's one of them. There were two people)
21:25 < wctaiwan> basically I can talk to people online just fine but IRL it falls apart :p
21:25 < Isarra> But with wikipedians, it could go even better!
21:26 < Isarra> Instead of listening to each other type to each other over skype, you could sit next to each other and type to each other!
21:26 < kim_bruning> wctaiwan, ah, right. did you break out the laptops?
21:26 < wctaiwan> we did, but we didn't have internet :(

21:29 < wctaiwan> mibbit is blocked on freenode, fwiw.
21:29 < kim_bruning> or ssh tunnel to a local ircd ....
21:29 < TeeTylerToe> but you can connect through ssh to freenode without mibbit
21:29 < wctaiwan> yeah.
21:30 < TeeTylerToe> you could even, I suppose, ssh to a java irc app
21:30 < TeeTylerToe> actually no that probably wouldn't work

21:31 < TeeTylerToe> there are easier alternatives

22:26 < wctaiwan> SigmaWP: I'm learning with the tutorial in the docs for 3, but I'm wondering about that.
22:26 < SigmaWP> Python 3 is good
22:26 < wctaiwan> Django doesn't support 3 and won't for a few months yet.
22:26 < kim_bruning> wctaiwan, there's not a huge diff in practice
22:26 < SigmaWP> Python 2 is full of stupid shit
22:26 < kim_bruning> SigmaWP, I do miss print
22:26 < kim_bruning> :-P
22:26 < kim_bruning> now it's print ()
22:26 < kim_bruning> geh
22:26 < SigmaWP> kim_bruning: print >>sys.stdout, "your mom", "is a coal ball",
22:27 < wctaiwan> yeah I figured I'd cross that bridge when I got to it. Shouldn't be too hard to wrap one's head around the differences, aye?
22:27 < kim_bruning> (notice how I managed to mix python and c syntax first time. Why can't all languages be sane? ;-)
22:27 < SigmaWP> kim_bruning: print("your mom", "is a coal ball", sep=" ", file=sys.stdout, end="\n")
22:27 < Earwig> ewwww
22:27 < SigmaWP> EARWIG IS A COAL BALL HATER
22:27 < Earwig> SigmaWP: I just closed EarwigBot issues #1 and #2
22:27 < Logan_> Don't be a hater.
22:27 < Earwig> I'm awesome.
22:28 < Logan_> False.
22:28 < SigmaWP> Earwig: What were they
22:28 < kim_bruning> SigmaWP, maybe Earwig just hates your mom
22:28 < Earwig> SigmaWP: creating new config files from scratch and modifying bot permissions from IRC.
22:28 < Earwig> so now people can actually like
22:28 < Earwig> run the bot >_>
22:28 -!- Theo|food is now known as Theopolisme
22:28 < Logan_> :D
22:28 < SigmaWP> Do you raise the issues yourself or does someone actually try the bot and ask for something :P
22:28 < Earwig> I have a friend who tests stuff and has commented on issues
22:29 -!- Jasper_Deng is now known as Jasper_Deng_away
22:29 < Theopolisme> Heck, who tries bots anymore? SOOOO 20th century
22:29 < Earwig> I've had two or three pull reqs so far
22:29 < Earwig> but yeah
22:29 < Earwig> mostly me created issues as a tracking system
22:29 < Theopolisme> Just let them run on the mainpage and see what happens xD
22:29 < Earwig> *creating
22:29 < Peter-C> bomb!
22:29 * Peter-C tackles Earwig
22:29 < Earwig> no
22:29 * Theopolisme looks on

22:31 < Earwig> oh gosh
22:32 < Earwig> http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/starting/which-python/#which-python-to-support
22:32 < Earwig> why not 2.7?
22:32 < SigmaWP> Fork it and add 2.7
22:32 < SigmaWP> Wait what
22:32 < Earwig> well there's probably a reason why
22:32 < SigmaWP> If you’re choosing a Python interpreter to use, I highly recommend you Use Python 2.7.x, unless you have a strong reason not to.
22:32 < SigmaWP> Right above.... ._.
22:33 < Earwig> yeah, someone fails
22:34 < SigmaWP> wctaiwan: Python 3 is the shiny one
22:34 < SigmaWP> Stay with it :D
22:35 < kim_bruning> SigmaWP, dude, python3 has much more solid utf8 support
22:35 < SigmaWP> YES
22:35 < SigmaWP> PHP has no unicode support at all
22:35 < kim_bruning> unicode support even
22:35 < SigmaWP> Even perl does better than it
22:36 < kim_bruning> SigmaWP, well php does unicode something, because mediawiki works aok :-P
22:36 < kim_bruning> maybe I'm suppressing the pain though, who knows
22:36 < wctaiwan> PHP does unicode fine >.>
22:36 < SigmaWP> It's probably a Tim Starling hack™
