2008-02-17 02:09 < Rinn> I just noticed something.
2008-02-17 02:09 < Rinn> All of the samples in this chiptune I've been listening to for the past hour or so are from Mario Paint.
2008-02-17 02:12 * brown_cat_mac scares Rinn >:D
2008-02-17 02:20 < PeanutHorst> ggreer: i would
2008-02-17 02:20 < PeanutHorst> but then again i'm the type that once used a 7,65mm Luger against an intruder, so... don't take my word for it
2008-02-17 02:20 < PeanutHorst> remember the pistol is only as good as the marksman, unless it'
2008-02-17 02:20 < PeanutHorst> s a saturday night special ()sorry about line split, hit enter whenmeaning to hit space)

2008-02-17 02:32 * Enterprise_Cat is now going to bed, good night!
2008-02-17 03:01 * Rinn has a stroke and dies
2008-02-17 03:29 < denelson83> So, anyone been able to identify this song? http://www.zshare.net/audio/766818302ab468/
2008-02-17 03:29 < denelson83> Anyone here heard it before?
2008-02-17 03:30 < ancjr> sounds like dolly parton's voice
2008-02-17 03:31 < ancjr> but that doesn't sound like a ollay parton song exactly
2008-02-17 03:33 < Suva> I know what it is!
2008-02-17 03:33 < denelson83> Yes?
2008-02-17 03:35 < Suva> No :(
2008-02-17 03:36 < denelson83> Bah
2008-02-17 03:36 < Rinn> The song's name is No?
2008-02-17 03:36 * denelson83 slaps Suva around a bit with a large trout
2008-02-17 03:37 < Suva> Tried typing in some lyrics to google, but it gave no results
2008-02-17 03:37 < denelson83> I tried that
2008-02-17 03:37 < denelson83> None of the lyric search sites I tried gave me any results either
2008-02-17 03:38 < Suva> The song probably doesn't exist
2008-02-17 03:38 < denelson83> But I recorded it off a radio station
2008-02-17 03:38 < Suva> And it gave from an other dimension! Parallel universe!
2008-02-17 03:38 < Rinn> Ask the radio station?
2008-02-17 03:39 < Suva> Hmm... Some sort of phones...
2008-02-17 03:39 < Suva> Let me think... Was it Sony Ericsson
2008-02-17 03:39 < denelson83> I tried asking a radio station on a previous song, that didn't work either
2008-02-17 03:39 < Suva> Had a program "identify a track"
2008-02-17 03:39 < Suva> Which listens to few seconds of the song and then tells you what it is
2008-02-17 03:39 < Rinn> The only other route, obviously, is espionage.
2008-02-17 03:39 < denelson83> I tried Tunatic as well, but it gave me nothing
2008-02-17 03:40 < Suva> denelson83: The radiostation was in USA?
2008-02-17 03:40 < denelson83> Canada
2008-02-17 03:40 < denelson83> Either CKLR-FM or CFCP-FM
2008-02-17 03:40 < Suva> Oh, they have to write down tracklists in canada AFAIK
2008-02-17 03:40 < denelson83> Those are my local radio stations
2008-02-17 03:40 < denelson83> Neither of those two stations do
2008-02-17 03:40 * brown_cat_mac walks over to Suva
2008-02-17 03:41 < Suva> Oh wait, I think they don't have to yeah...
2008-02-17 03:41 < Suva> It's obligatory in most parts of europe though, you pay the royalties according to those lists.
2008-02-17 03:42 < Suva> Even if you play some old song.
2008-02-17 03:46 < Suva> http://www.unknowntrack.com/
2008-02-17 03:47 < denelson83> Tried that as well
2008-02-17 03:47 < denelson83> No response
2008-02-17 03:47 < denelson83> http://unknowntrack.com/showthread.php?t=428
2008-02-17 03:49 < Suva> Haha, I still find the parallel universe version to be most feasible
2008-02-17 03:53 < Rinn> I begin to agree with Suva.
2008-02-17 03:54 < denelson83> Anyone else?
2008-02-17 03:58 < Rinn> Maybe it's an independent song and they played it for the very purpose of annoying people who want to know its name.
2008-02-17 03:58 < Suva> Okay, okay, I'll admit it. I made this song
2008-02-17 03:58 < Rinn> I knew it!
2008-02-17 03:59 < Suva> It wasn't just me...
2008-02-17 03:59 < denelson83> Yeah, if we actually catch any of the thousands of radio stations in North America playing this track again -> [00:39:54] <Rinn> The only other route, obviously, is espionage.
2008-02-17 03:59 < Suva> But a GOOD VERSION of me, from the parallel universe. Without a goatee!
2008-02-17 04:00 < Rinn> WITHOUT a goatee? But whatever will the good version of you do without your devilish handsomeness?
2008-02-17 04:01 < Suva> Country music apparently.
2008-02-17 04:02 < denelson83> Played on a pop radio station
2008-02-17 04:02 < Rinn> Do you know any country music players with goatees?
2008-02-17 04:02 < Suva> Sure
2008-02-17 04:02 * brown_cat_mac offers shaving advice to wikipedians
2008-02-17 04:02 < brown_cat_mac> Rinn: would you like some advice?
2008-02-17 04:02 < denelson83> Shazam -> [00:39:45] <Suva> Which listens to few seconds of the song and then tells you what it is
2008-02-17 04:03 < Rinn> Sure!
2008-02-17 04:03 < Rinn> Which part of the body?
2008-02-17 04:03 < brown_cat_mac> O_o
2008-02-17 04:03 < brown_cat_mac> all of it
2008-02-17 04:04 < denelson83> How about just the hammerspace?
2008-02-17 04:04 < brown_cat_mac> O_O
2008-02-17 04:05 < brown_cat_mac> brb, 2 mins

2008-02-17 04:07 * brown_cat points out how dangerous it is to masturbate while driving
2008-02-17 04:08 < Rinn> Pfft. You're just not a multitasker.

2008-02-17 04:11 < brown_cat> if it is 16 does that make me a predator if my gf is 15? O_O
2008-02-17 04:11 < jerkface03> or even #wikipedo
2008-02-17 04:11 < Suva> I wish you would be a push up pony!
2008-02-17 04:11 < Rinn> Nobody told me there was a #wikipedo!
2008-02-17 04:11 < Suva> brown_cat: Yes
2008-02-17 04:11 < Suva> brown_cat: I already reported you to the authorities
2008-02-17 04:12 < brown_cat> who is that?
2008-02-17 04:12 < brown_cat> dpp?
2008-02-17 04:12 < brown_cat> dcp?
2008-02-17 04:12 < brown_cat> dcd?
2008-02-17 04:12 < Suva> AAA? AAB? AAC? AAD?
2008-02-17 04:12 < jerkface03> brown_cat: the internet police
2008-02-17 04:12 < jerkface03> or maybe chris hanson
2008-02-17 04:12 < brown_cat> hahahaha
2008-02-17 04:12 < jerkface03> i have had good times watching people's lives get ruined on tv
2008-02-17 04:12 < Suva> brown_cat: No, FSB, they hate sexual predators
2008-02-17 04:13 < jerkface03> if the to catch a predator series was available on dvd
2008-02-17 04:13 < jerkface03> i would be the first one to pre-order it
2008-02-17 04:13 < jerkface03> it's a laugh riot
2008-02-17 04:13 < brown_cat> Suva: dcp = dept. child protection, dcd = dept. community development
2008-02-17 04:13 < denelson83> FSB?
2008-02-17 04:13 < Suva> ??????????? ?????? ????????????
2008-02-17 04:13 < Suva> Blaah, no utf
2008-02-17 04:14 < Suva> Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation
2008-02-17 04:14 < denelson83> oh
2008-02-17 04:15 < Suva> brown_cat: Actually I don't think it is a criminal offence. If you are 18 and she is 15, then it is crime :P
2008-02-17 04:15 < Starnestommy> what if you're 17?
2008-02-17 04:15 < jerkface03> it's rape
2008-02-17 04:15 < Rinn> But if she takes naked pictures of herself and gives them to you, she can be charged.
2008-02-17 04:16 < jerkface03> enjoy having your ass pounded in prison ;(
2008-02-17 04:16 < brown_cat> what if you are having sex while you are about to turn 18
2008-02-17 04:16 < Rinn> I think there's a quote on bash.org on that subject.
2008-02-17 04:16 < Suva> I'd rather wank :P
2008-02-17 04:16 < jerkface03> don't drop the soap :(
2008-02-17 04:16 < brown_cat> hmmm
2008-02-17 04:16 < brown_cat> I have an idea
2008-02-17 04:17 * brown_cat will dress up as a women if he ever goes to court so he can go to women's prison :D
2008-02-17 04:17 < Suva> brown_cat: You are going to start a wankfest? Yeah, I have the same idea!
2008-02-17 04:17 < Suva> Oh
2008-02-17 04:17 < Suva> That's pretty bad idea :S
2008-02-17 04:17 < brown_cat> why?
2008-02-17 04:17 < brown_cat> being surrounded by who I assume will be models
2008-02-17 04:17 < Suva> Hey, ever tried living together with a ONE woman? (Except your mom)
2008-02-17 04:18 < brown_cat> not for more then 2 weeks, no
2008-02-17 04:18 < Suva> Well, it's pretty horrible :P
2008-02-17 04:18 < Rinn> Does living with myself count as living with a woman?
2008-02-17 04:18 < brown_cat> no
2008-02-17 04:18 < brown_cat> you have to live with a woman to count
2008-02-17 04:18 < Suva> Rinn: Unless you are both man and woman :P
2008-02-17 04:19 < Suva> Now try doing that with 1000 women... With criminal background :P
2008-02-17 04:19 * brown_cat has a fear of transsexuals
2008-02-17 04:19 < The359> ...
2008-02-17 04:19 < The359> fear?
2008-02-17 04:19 * brown_cat thinks there should be a world outing day so he knows who to avoid
2008-02-17 04:19 < The359> That they'll rape you?
2008-02-17 04:19 < brown_cat> no...
2008-02-17 04:19 < Suva> Yeah that's normal
2008-02-17 04:19 < Suva> People think that men want to have sex all the time
2008-02-17 04:20 < Suva> This is why they get into the pants so quickly
2008-02-17 04:20 < The359> but...
2008-02-17 04:20 < The359> we do
2008-02-17 04:20 < Suva> But actually they just want to check if the girl isn't a transsexual
2008-02-17 04:20 < Manetho> fear?
2008-02-17 04:20 < brown_cat> I was in garbo with my gf and there was this ~6ft 3 transsexual behind us - it was sooo scary O_O
2008-02-17 04:20 < Manetho> not disgust or compassion?
2008-02-17 04:20 < The359> scary how?
2008-02-17 04:20 < Suva> And if they already have checked, they want to recheck, just in case
2008-02-17 04:20 < brown_cat> The359: it was just... scary
2008-02-17 04:20 < brown_cat> I can't describe it any other way
2008-02-17 04:21 < Rinn> Garbo?
2008-02-17 04:21 < Manetho> fear would be indicative of the classical reaction of someone unsure of their own sexuality.
2008-02-17 04:21 < Suva> brown_cat: Yeah, I heard they eat 16yo sexual predators
2008-02-17 04:21 < The359> brown_cat is a wikipedio now?
2008-02-17 04:21 < brown_cat> Rinn: garbo = the biggest shopping center in our state, everyone goes there
2008-02-17 04:21 * brown_cat mentally undresses Rinn
2008-02-17 04:21 < Suva> I don't
2008-02-17 04:22 < Rinn> Is there an "I'm a pedophile!" userbox?
2008-02-17 04:22 < brown_cat> Suva: I mean everyone kool in our state <30
2008-02-17 04:22 < Suva> Rinn: No, it got TfD'd :(
2008-02-17 04:22 < The359> I'm sure there is, Rinn
2008-02-17 04:22 < denelson83> Rinn: NO.
2008-02-17 04:22 < The359> There's a big pedo group on Wiki
2008-02-17 04:22 < Manetho> technically unless the 1/2 + 7 rule is violated, you're not considered a pedophile
2008-02-17 04:23 < Suva> I am a technophile
2008-02-17 04:23 < The359> 1/2 + 7?
2008-02-17 04:23 < brown_cat> b4Ifuru

2008-02-17 04:24 < Rinn> Half their age plus seven.
2008-02-17 04:24 < Manetho> IIRC your aget brown_cat you can only work with people your own age.
2008-02-17 04:24 < Manetho> *age
2008-02-17 04:25 < The359> so 12 year olds should be fucking 15 year olds?
2008-02-17 04:25 < brown_cat> O_o
2008-02-17 04:25 < The359> erm...
2008-02-17 04:25 * The359 fudged that math
2008-02-17 04:25 < Manetho> do the math asshat

2008-02-17 04:26 * Manetho screams.
2008-02-17 04:26 < brown_cat> brb, replacing The359's batteries
2008-02-17 04:27 * brown_cat holds a rag drowned with chloroform to Manetho's face
2008-02-17 04:27 < Rinn> The chloroform rag thing actually doesn't work.
2008-02-17 04:27 < Suva> It does too
2008-02-17 04:27 < Manetho> It would work.
2008-02-17 04:27 < Manetho> but this text
2008-02-17 04:28 < Manetho> of course it wouldn't work with someone whose movement was unimpaired and who could kick your ass
2008-02-17 04:29 < The359> It's always worked for me...
2008-02-17 04:29 < Manetho> *is. is text.
2008-02-17 04:30 < slashem> I prefer rohypnol.
2008-02-17 04:30 < Manetho> (not primarily a speaker of chinese yet)
2008-02-17 04:30 < Suva> But yeah, the choloroform acts quite slow
2008-02-17 04:31 < Suva> Not like in movies: "Hey, does this rag smell like chloroform do you?"
2008-02-17 04:31 < Suva> to you*
2008-02-17 04:33 < Manetho> there doubtless is something that would do, probably with a significant risk of permanent damage though
2008-02-17 04:33 < Suva> One guy tried that on me in school. :P
2008-02-17 04:34 < Manetho> of course if a dead victim is Ok, potassium cyanide would work
2008-02-17 04:34 < Suva> I acted like I fainted, and then beat him up when he let go of me :P
2008-02-17 04:34 < Rinn> You've got a whole lot more options if a dead victim is okay.
2008-02-17 04:35 < Suva> God damn fuckers, if they only had bothered to listen to the chemistry teacher talking about chloroform being highly toxic and stuff :P
2008-02-17 04:36 < Suva> The stuff in the chemistry class was highly dissolved anyway, so not functional for anything in first place
2008-02-17 04:38 < Manetho> in my high school, there was 1 science lab and this kid chased me with a fetal pig after I showed the fear I then had about small dead animals
2008-02-17 04:39 < Rinn> I found a fetal pig in someone's house last week!
2008-02-17 04:39 < Manetho> in a jar or what?
2008-02-17 04:39 < Rinn> Yeah. It was at an estate sale.
2008-02-17 04:40 < Suva> XD
2008-02-17 04:40 < Suva> There was a whole human brain in a jar in our biology class
2008-02-17 04:40 < Suva> And some other human parts :P
2008-02-17 04:41 < Rinn> I've always wanted a human brain in a jar as decoration.
2008-02-17 04:42 < Manetho> I think human children would be fearless if they weren't traumatized by their parents or the environment. I only had the reaction as learned one from my mother who would freak out when a mouse was found.
2008-02-17 04:42 < The359> I didn't want to peel the skin back on the dead rat in high school
2008-02-17 04:42 < Manetho> obvious survival value there in said traumatization mechanisms
2008-02-17 04:42 < The359> everything else involved in dissection I could handle
2008-02-17 04:43 < Rinn> I never got to dissect anything. I was homeschooled.
2008-02-17 04:43 < KingTT> edit wikipeida plz
2008-02-17 04:43 < Manetho> there is something innate though in finding a rat repulsive and a squirrel cute although they're almost the same
2008-02-17 04:44 < Manetho> the main differences are the bushy coat and the way they move
2008-02-17 04:44 < KingTT> no more chatting it is cutting into company profits
2008-02-17 04:44 < Suva> I think mice and rats are cute
2008-02-17 04:45 < Suva> But I know people who are panically afraid of cats aswell
2008-02-17 04:45 < Manetho> mice yeah, but not a rat unless you raise if from a pup. This is their year though.
2008-02-17 04:45 < KingTT> my plan is we bulldoze #wikipedia make way for more wikiproject chats and improve productivity
2008-02-17 04:45 < Manetho> *it
2008-02-17 04:46 < Suva> KingTT: OMG A CORPORATE TAKEOVER!
2008-02-17 04:46 < Suva> Next they are going to say that we can't wank in the office. :(
2008-02-17 04:46 < KingTT> /ignore Suva
2008-02-17 04:47 < Suva> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5yQNwu0kTc
2008-02-17 04:47 < The359> we're not-for-profit
2008-02-17 04:47 < KingTT> yeah taht was a joke
2008-02-17 04:47 < Lycurgus> wanking in the office is totally hot
2008-02-17 04:47 < The359> your joke sucked
2008-02-17 04:47 < Suva> There are plenty of good reasons to ban wanking at the office!
2008-02-17 04:47 < KingTT> the rest was serious this chat room is parasitic
2008-02-17 04:48 < The359> this chat room costs nothing
2008-02-17 04:48 < The359> it's not run on Wikipedia's servers
2008-02-17 04:48 < Lycurgus> amen
2008-02-17 04:48 < KingTT> not in terms of money
2008-02-17 04:48 < KingTT> why aren't you editing
2008-02-17 04:48 < The359> you said profits
2008-02-17 04:48 < The359> why aren't you?
2008-02-17 04:48 < KingTT> that was the joke part ignore it
2008-02-17 04:48 < Lycurgus> dunno if wm runs Tor gates though
2008-02-17 04:48 < KingTT> because i am rallying you to edit
2008-02-17 04:49 < Starnestommy> actually, that was a joke. this channel actually costs nothing
2008-02-17 04:49 < scompt> hello all, I'm just starting out contributing to wikipedia and I have a question about copyright
2008-02-17 04:49 < Lycurgus> which they might do to support the browser link
2008-02-17 04:49 < Suva> What, wikipedia ran out of editors or something?
2008-02-17 04:49 < PeanutHorst> scompt: ask awat, and welcome :)
2008-02-17 04:49 < The359> Unless I'm getting paid
2008-02-17 04:49 < The359> I don't have to edit
2008-02-17 04:49 < scompt> is an article allowed to verbatim copy part of a government work?
2008-02-17 04:49 < scompt> for example, a couple paragraphs from state dept webpage
2008-02-17 04:49 < The359> most likely not, scompt
2008-02-17 04:49 < Lycurgus> really, seems like every asshat in the universe has dipped their oar someplace
2008-02-17 04:50 < The359> You should write everything in your own words
2008-02-17 04:50 < The359> and merely cite your source
2008-02-17 04:50 < Suva> If it is a law text then it is okay, laws are not copyrightable
2008-02-17 04:50 < PeanutHorst> scompt: if you summarise and place THAT on the page, then add a {{ref}} tag...
2008-02-17 04:50 < scompt> gotcha... I'm not writing it new... I've just come upon it while cleaning something up
2008-02-17 04:51 < Lycurgus> what is scompt?
2008-02-17 04:51 < scompt> the word?
2008-02-17 04:51 < Lycurgus> the referent of the word
2008-02-17 04:52 < Suva> What was wrong with the KingTT guy?
2008-02-17 04:52 < Starnestommy> troll
2008-02-17 04:52 < Lycurgus> something was lodged in his anus
2008-02-17 04:52 < The359> yeah
2008-02-17 04:52 < Lycurgus> I've seen a lot of that.
2008-02-17 04:52 < Starnestommy> he just blanked several pages on Uncyclopedia and got banned there a few minutes before
2008-02-17 04:52 < Rinn> I like trolls.
2008-02-17 04:52 < The359> lovely
2008-02-17 04:52 < scompt> Lycurgus: just something I made up a while back
2008-02-17 04:52 < Suva> Probably a basketball
2008-02-17 04:52 < Starnestommy> and he went in #freenode to try to get #wikipedia deleted
2008-02-17 04:53 < The359> I like how even Uncyclopedia has to deal with blanking
2008-02-17 04:53 < jerkface03> LOL
2008-02-17 04:53 < jerkface03> who
2008-02-17 04:53 < jerkface03> who did that
2008-02-17 04:53 < The359> Even though they're a joke site
2008-02-17 04:53 < Starnestommy> blanking is not a joke
2008-02-17 04:53 * The359 lul'd
2008-02-17 04:54 < Lycurgus> Oh, I see. I parsed "help out scompt" as referring to scompt as a DO, the thing to be helped.
2008-02-17 04:55 < scompt> heh
2008-02-17 04:55 < Lycurgus> further, I assumed it was not a person. Didn't see your entries.
2008-02-17 04:56 < Suva> Although, wikipedia chat is always had some bad things to it...
2008-02-17 04:56 < Suva> Like stalking, misusing logs, etc.
2008-02-17 04:57 < Suva> So talking bullshit and discussing lolcats is really a best thing you can seriously do on the channel
2008-02-17 04:57 < Starnestommy> i can has lolcats?
2008-02-17 04:58 < Suva> Sure [[Lolcats]]
2008-02-17 05:00 < Lycurgus> well you know, no original research and stuff. So if this channel were always on topic it would be a lot of tedious repetitive bureaucratic noise
2008-02-17 05:00 < Lycurgus> or the buzzing of bees
2008-02-17 05:01 < Suva> I think that loldogs are not as half as funny as lolcats
2008-02-17 05:02 < Lycurgus> loldogs sounds slightly nasty, so I guess I disagree

2008-02-17 06:08 < WikiHelper> chanops: don't you think that you should add use !_admin without the "_" before your request for 'emergencies' like in #wikipedia-en :D :?

2008-02-17 06:27 < Harland> Hi
2008-02-17 06:40 < Gargantua> is "sodium base" the same as sodium?
2008-02-17 06:46 < digwuren> Gargantua: not exactly
2008-02-17 06:46 < Gargantua> Please elaborate.
2008-02-17 06:46 < digwuren> Gargantua: it indicates a derived concept, the derivation depending on the context.
2008-02-17 06:46 < digwuren> Gargantua: 'base' being a common way to refer to alkali, 'sodium base' may refer to the alkalous sodium ion.
2008-02-17 06:47 < digwuren> Gargantua: And 'sodium base' may also refer to other kinds of concepts that are based on sodium, in all the senses of 'base'
2008-02-17 06:47 < Gargantua> First, phenol (generally extracted from coal tar) is treated with a sodium base which generates sodium phenolate, which...
2008-02-17 06:47 < digwuren> Gargantua: for example, certain chemical technicues are 'based on sodium' due to their heavy use of sodium salts.
2008-02-17 06:47 < Gargantua> Man, chemistry is some messy stuff...
2008-02-17 06:48 < digwuren> Gargantua: And sodium being a metal, it is not entirely unthinkable that, for whatever reason, one could fashion an anvil out of sodium, and use that as a base for some sort of mechanical manipulation.
2008-02-17 06:48 < digwuren> Gargantua: Obviously, this can't work in water vapour, and has issues in oxygen atmosphere.
2008-02-17 06:48 < Gargantua> hah
2008-02-17 06:49 < Gargantua> So which concept does my example follow? :P
2008-02-17 06:49 < digwuren> Gargantua: In this context, I think this 'sodium base' means a high-pH solution with heavy (again, context-specific) sodium content.
2008-02-17 06:50 < Gargantua> I hope they'll teach me this in highschool... :P
2008-02-17 06:50 < Gargantua> Well, later highschool, I mean.
2008-02-17 06:50 < digwuren> Gargantua: That is to say, a solution of some sort of sodium salt. Which salt -- not specified, probably not very relevant.
2008-02-17 06:50 < Gargantua> ah
2008-02-17 06:52 < digwuren> Gargantua: Actually, sodium hydroxid can also be considered 'sodium base'.
2008-02-17 06:52 < digwuren> Gargantua: Or a solution of sodium hydroxid.
2008-02-17 06:53 < Gargantua> ok
2008-02-17 06:53 < Gargantua> thank you, digwuren.
2008-02-17 06:55 < digwuren> Gargantua: I don't know about your school, but around here, acids, bases, and salts belong to a basic anorganic chemistry course.
2008-02-17 06:55 < Gargantua> I'm still a highschool freshman, so...
2008-02-17 06:55 < digwuren> Gargantua: In English-speaking countries, it would probably be called 'science' rather than 'chemistry' in high schools, though.
2008-02-17 06:56 < Gargantua> Very little is taught in our "Science" classes :P
2008-02-17 06:56 < digwuren> I'm not sure, but I think we were given first year of chemistry in grade 6 or 7
2008-02-17 06:56 < Gargantua> if by chemistry, you mean "State of matter"...
2008-02-17 06:57 < digwuren> Gargantua: no, by chemistry, I mean, a theory of chemical bonds and reactions
2008-02-17 06:57 < Gargantua> Really?
2008-02-17 06:57 < Gargantua> We didn't get those until this year.
2008-02-17 06:58 < digwuren> Gargantua: the course usually starts by explaining atomic bonds, then goes over simple ions, and reaches acids and bases in a few weeks
2008-02-17 06:58 < Gargantua> in grade 6 or 7?
2008-02-17 06:58 < digwuren> Gargantua: Yes.
2008-02-17 06:58 < Gargantua> I don't think they do this nowadays.
2008-02-17 06:58 < Gargantua> Or atleast, in Canada :P
2008-02-17 06:58 < digwuren> It was over a decade ago, though, so I'm not sure which one
2008-02-17 07:01 < digwuren> Gargantua: Alas, I don't think they do it much in the Western world. :(
2008-02-17 07:01 < digwuren> Gargantua: Science is considerably underrated these days.
2008-02-17 07:02 < Gargantua> Yeah.
2008-02-17 07:02 < CPK47> I'm sure this has already been done, but I wish to deeply thank everyone in the Wikipedia universe who was responsible for the decision to defy 180,000+ censorship demands, and stick to Freedom of Speech and Information.
2008-02-17 07:05 < PQE> hi all
2008-02-17 07:07 < Ryan_wp> Good morning everyone.
2008-02-17 07:08 < Gargantua_> What was that CPK47 guy talking about?
2008-02-17 07:11 < digwuren> Gargantua_: I think he was being sarcastic.
2008-02-17 07:12 < Gargantua_> what was the 18000+ censorship demands about/
2008-02-17 07:12 < Gargantua_> ?
2008-02-17 07:25 < digwuren> Gargantua: I don't know.
2008-02-17 07:27 < Hildanknight> Is there a WikiProject for flags, especially national flags, and related symbols? I'm asking not because I want to join one, but because I'm filing a Peer Review for [[Flag of Singapore]] and want to know which WikiProjects I can contact to request reviews.
2008-02-17 07:29 < CharlotteWebb> there is an MOS page governing the use of the flag images
2008-02-17 07:29 < CharlotteWebb> i don't see anything for coordinating *articles about* flags
2008-02-17 07:34 < SelfQ> Hi guys, I got a question, how do you make more then one sub paragraph?
2008-02-17 07:34 < SelfQ> example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester, history section
2008-02-17 07:35 < SelfQ> when I just add ===Early History=== then ===Renaissance=== the whole Renaissance dis apears
2008-02-17 07:36 < CharlotteWebb> eh...
2008-02-17 07:36 < CharlotteWebb> sub-paragraph?
2008-02-17 07:36 < Ryan_wp> you mean section?
2008-02-17 07:36 < SelfQ> I dont know what to call it, im not a native english speaker
2008-02-17 07:37 < Hildanknight> I think you mean "section". :)
2008-02-17 07:37 * Hildanknight isn't a native speaker of English either.
2008-02-17 07:37 < digwuren> SelfQ: have you tried ====Early renaissance history==== ?
2008-02-17 07:37 < digwuren> Hildanknight: That's ok, English is not a native speaker of you, either.
2008-02-17 07:38 < Hildanknight> SelfQ: just add one more equals sign at the beginning of the line, and another equals sign at the end.
2008-02-17 07:38 < SelfQ> but its not early renaissance, its just renaissance
2008-02-17 07:38 < SelfQ> ahh okay, thank you :D
2008-02-17 07:39 < SelfQ> hmm, that did not work...
2008-02-17 07:40 < CharlotteWebb> i'm still not understanding what you are trying to do
2008-02-17 07:41 < Hildanknight> How about: ===Early History=== then ====Renaissance==== ?
2008-02-17 07:41 < SelfQ> go to here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester, look at the history section, see how it has multible parts, in one section?
2008-02-17 07:42 < Ryan_wp> do you want Renaissance as a sub-section of Early History?
2008-02-17 07:42 < SelfQ> Hildanknight:nope, dint work
2008-02-17 07:42 < SelfQ> yes
2008-02-17 07:42 < Ryan_wp> hmm... let me think then...
2008-02-17 07:42 < SelfQ> well, of history, early is a subsection already
2008-02-17 07:42 < Hildanknight> Then I don't see why it didn't work.
2008-02-17 07:43 < Ryan_wp> is Early History a sub-section of anything?
2008-02-17 07:44 < Manetho> hmmmmm, Dinty More.
2008-02-17 07:44 < Ryan_wp> oh! I see nevermind... I didn't look :)
2008-02-17 07:44 < Hildanknight> Try to edit [[Manchester]] and see how it's done.
2008-02-17 07:44 < SelfQ> Its like this: History, then Early History, Ren, Modern
2008-02-17 07:45 < brown_cat_> how do I kill a ghost :s
2008-02-17 07:45 < Manetho> .oO(Note: Modern is Post-Ren)
2008-02-17 07:46 < SelfQ> whoops, I found out what was happening, it was being pulled down by the a <ref></ref>...
2008-02-17 07:46 < Hildanknight> Problem solved?
2008-02-17 07:47 < SelfQ> almost, need to not make it stick to said ref
2008-02-17 07:47 < Gargantua> Why do people have fingernails?
2008-02-17 07:49 < SelfQ> fully fix now, thank you guys
2008-02-17 07:49 * JessicaTaylor is back
2008-02-17 07:50 < Ryan_wp> welcome back

2008-02-17 08:04 * brown_cat cuddles Starnestommy :D
2008-02-17 08:04 < Starnestommy> crap, that was kerosene, not water
2008-02-17 08:04 * brown_cat gives Starnestommy two of his lives :)

2008-02-17 08:09 < effeietsanders> soufron: please, don't put that kind of sentences on all channels you're in
2008-02-17 08:09 < effeietsanders> it's kinda irritating :)
2008-02-17 08:12 < soufron> effeietsanders, no it's not ;-)
2008-02-17 08:12 < soufron> effeietsanders, well this time, ti was... in french... :-(
2008-02-17 08:12 < effeietsanders> soufron: maybe not for you, but in general, it is if you see the same message three times
2008-02-17 08:12 < effeietsanders> and it's 99% of the times kinda... irrelevant
2008-02-17 08:15 < soufron> effeietsanders, weel it's 99% of the time "hello" ;-)

2008-02-17 08:42 < SelfQ> question, if you are adding a source to something, <ref>, but that same source page has a source for another part of your page, how do you make it so that you dont end up with 2 of the same refs´s?
2008-02-17 08:46 < Aqwis> <ref name="ref1">text</ref> first time
2008-02-17 08:46 < Aqwis> <ref name="ref1"/> second time
2008-02-17 08:47 < Aqwis> if i understood you correctly
2008-02-17 08:51 < SelfQ> let me try and see if that works
2008-02-17 08:54 < Mike2> i like her friends http://www.myspace.com/hillaryclinton
2008-02-17 08:55 < WikiHelper> guys on [[Wikipedia:Upload]] don't you think it should say Create an account or login instead of Create an account or log-in ?
2008-02-17 08:57 < SelfQ> it worked, thanks Aqwis
2008-02-17 09:21 < CharlotteWebb> i'm slightly drunk already but the only difference i see is the hyphen
2008-02-17 09:22 < CharlotteWebb> wikihelper i think with a space "log in" would be most correct
2008-02-17 09:22 < geniice> okey anyone who knows about SVGs is asked to report for map makeing duties
2008-02-17 09:22 < geniice> http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7249034.stm
2008-02-17 09:32 < WikiHelper> Charlotte Webb: ok: can you do that? Only admins can change it...
2008-02-17 09:33 < CharlotteWebb> i think you just answered your own question :(
2008-02-17 09:34 < WikiHelper> oh !admin can you change [[Wikipedia:Upload]] so that instead of the sentence with Create an account or *log-in* it is Create an account or *log in* = Thanks! :)
2008-02-17 09:38 < lucasbfr> WikiHelper: done
2008-02-17 09:38 < WikiHelper> thanks :D
2008-02-17 09:39 < MessedRocker> it is not a problem

2008-02-17 09:45 < arcimboldo_> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Paris_burning.jpg - I believe this image had been deleted already due to lack of copyright clarification.
2008-02-17 09:45 < arcimboldo_> Seems he keeps uploading it.

2008-02-17 09:59 < PQE> Kosovo has just declared independence
2008-02-17 10:00 < CharlotteWebb> good for them, let's see how long that lasts.
2008-02-17 10:00 < geniice> arcimboldo_ no source
2008-02-17 10:00 < geniice> PQE darn
2008-02-17 10:01 < arcimboldo_> geniice: I think that user should be observed - he is repeatedly ignoring copyright matters.
2008-02-17 10:01 < arcimboldo_> (you can look at the history of his discussion page)
2008-02-17 10:01 < geniice> arcimboldo_ hardly abnormal
2008-02-17 10:07 < Golbez> so how bout them kosovars eh
2008-02-17 10:08 < morwen> did they do it yet?
2008-02-17 10:08 < morwen> ah, i see they just did
2008-02-17 10:08 < Golbez> they did, yes
2008-02-17 10:08 < Golbez> it's going to be a fun day
2008-02-17 10:09 < morwen> let the edit war commence!
2008-02-17 10:09 < PQE> feniice> why darn?
2008-02-17 10:09 < PQE> CharlotteWebb> forever, I guess
2008-02-17 10:09 < Golbez> also, wow, hi morwen :) Long time no see on der wiki (and IRC but mainly because I haven't been here)
2008-02-17 10:10 < morwen> Golbez: I am a missing wikipedian!
2008-02-17 10:10 < Golbez> I know! Why?
2008-02-17 10:10 < Therapist_Cat> GOLBEZ! MORWEN!
2008-02-17 10:10 < Golbez> RAUL!
2008-02-17 10:10 < morwen> um, because i haven't edited since july
2008-02-17 10:10 < CharlotteWebb> well any area that wants independence should get at least one shot at it
2008-02-17 10:10 < CharlotteWebb> </pov>
2008-02-17 10:10 < Golbez> I know, but why? If I may ask.
2008-02-17 10:11 < Golbez> CharlotteWebb- absolutely agree, i don't understand why a government can claim a people that don't want it
2008-02-17 10:11 < morwen> i had become increasingly frustrated with the husnock thing
2008-02-17 10:11 < Golbez> husnock thing?
2008-02-17 10:12 < morwen> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Husnock
2008-02-17 10:12 < CharlotteWebb> eh he was a nutter as i recall
2008-02-17 10:12 < Golbez> thanks for the link
2008-02-17 10:12 < morwen> he continued to edit under various sockpuppets after he was banned from using sockpuppets
2008-02-17 10:13 < morwen> and in the end i just couldn't be bothered
2008-02-17 10:13 < morwen> openstreetmap is better, nobody has threatened to kill me, also they buy you lunch
2008-02-17 10:13 < Golbez> "I would be careful telling a deployed member of the military they shouldn't edit on Wikipedia for whatever reason." Wow, this one's a winner.
2008-02-17 10:14 < morwen> i had of course made no such statement
2008-02-17 10:14 < Golbez> Especially since I seriously doubt he was even in your military. :P
2008-02-17 10:15 < morwen> yes, exactly!
2008-02-17 10:15 < Lycurgus> that seems to be dead a year now.
2008-02-17 10:15 < morwen> i am more inclined to contempt than respect for volunteers of the united states armed forces
2008-02-17 10:15 < Golbez> Sigh. Sorry to hear all this. :( I knew you'd disappeared (and checked your LJ just to make sure you were alive) but didn't know why.
2008-02-17 10:16 < Golbez> dang it, Durin is still gone? hrm.
2008-02-17 10:16 < Lycurgus> even a human being would be dessicated after a year
2008-02-17 10:16 < morwen> (which is not to say i was treating him more harshly because of that, it just seemed incredibly arrogant to assume WP:V didn't apply to him)
2008-02-17 10:17 < Golbez> right
2008-02-17 10:17 < Golbez> well, you know how it is.
2008-02-17 10:17 < Golbez> the United States owns the internet
2008-02-17 10:17 < Golbez> and by proxy, Wikipedia.
2008-02-17 10:18 < Golbez> :P
2008-02-17 10:18 < Lycurgus> yeah, I have issues with Notability and a lot of other crap, but at least in principle Verifiablity or some variety of Veridicality is sacred.
2008-02-17 10:18 < Golbez> And even worse, he was getting riled up over Star Trek articles. You're going to threaten someone because you're a soldier over STAR TREK articles? Yikes.
2008-02-17 10:18 < CharlotteWebb> i could make a tasteless joke about the PRC now
2008-02-17 10:18 < Golbez> At least something good like the Israel conflict, or Holocaust revisionism, or SOMETHING.
2008-02-17 10:19 < CharlotteWebb> oh yes, like i said he was a nutter
2008-02-17 10:19 < Golbez> But Star Trek? This guy has a screw loose. He's perfect for our military.
2008-02-17 10:19 < CharlotteWebb> a trekkie nutter
2008-02-17 10:19 < Lycurgus> tasteless or racist or what? let us be the judge.
2008-02-17 10:19 < Golbez> Though he sounds like he'd fit better into Blackwater.
2008-02-17 10:19 < morwen> i ended up with a collection of maybe 30 making of star trek books, autobiographies, biographies and stuff
2008-02-17 10:19 < morwen> i'd started sorting out some of the articles to actually be encyclopedic
2008-02-17 10:20 < CharlotteWebb> let me guess, reverted
2008-02-17 10:20 < Golbez> Not that I'm saying editing Star Trek articles is a bad thing, morwen, far from. It's when someone start making threats about them that I wonder, why this? Why now? Why are you going to fight for *this* hill?
2008-02-17 10:20 < morwen> generally speaking
2008-02-17 10:20 < Golbez> that sucks
2008-02-17 10:21 < morwen> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Morwen/Starfleet_ship_classes for example
2008-02-17 10:21 < Golbez> because the nice thing about Star Trek compared to most other fiction is there *is* a large amount of bibliography to use in citing articles
2008-02-17 10:21 < Lycurgus> wouldn't it be better to fight about that at memory alpha?
2008-02-17 10:22 < CharlotteWebb> pfft
2008-02-17 10:22 < morwen> Lycurgus: no. memory alpha is a pretend in-universe encyclopedia thing
2008-02-17 10:22 < Lycurgus> got it.
2008-02-17 10:22 < Golbez> is it? I thought that was more DITL.
2008-02-17 10:23 < morwen> as such, it goes for explanations such as "The Excelsior-class was extraordinarily successful and therefore had a long lifespan of 80 years". As opposed to "The producers were cheap and wouldn't give the budget for making new models, so the movie models were used in TNG to represent older ships"
2008-02-17 10:23 < Golbez> Memory Alpha is a nice fun reference
2008-02-17 10:23 < Golbez> Ah, I see.
2008-02-17 10:23 < Golbez> That's a good example of how each one would handle the issue.
2008-02-17 10:24 < Lycurgus> still ya know ...
