Ugh, I think it has several aspects wrong, like asserting that Jimbo
also banned/agreed with the ban of Ashley from en.wp, rather than
banning Ashley from his talk page before the ArbCom decision.

There are some notability concerns there... I haven't tagged the article,
but I've left a note on the talk page.

 

I've also noticed the issue is now getting international coverage:

Why? Daily Telegraph has a daily readership of over 600K. WMUK blog
doesn't. But then given how think your attempted defense is I doubt it
would make much difference.

[Wikimediauk-l] QRpedia updates

[Andy Mabbett]

HI folks,

QRpedia developer Terence Eden has a new job (congratulations,
Terence!) and a week of leave, before he starts it. Rather than let
him watch the Olympics we've kept him chained to a desk, hacking code.
As a result, we have new improved stats pages, for example:

http://qrpedia.org/stats.php?path=Monmouth

You will see that there is a link to download all the data in CSV format:

http://qrpedia.org/csv.php?path=Monmouth

A link to the stats page is now on the main QRpedia.org page, when a
code is generated.

The old stats pages will be redirect to the new ones in a few weeks,
because "cool URIs don't change"  ;-)

If you have any requests for improvements - or have noticed any bugs -
please report them using the bug tracking system at

   http://code.google.com/p/qrwp/issues/list

That way we can all track everyone's requests, and see what others
have asked for before duplicating them.

I'll update the project pages at:

   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_QRpedia

including the short "how to" guide:

   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_QRpedia/user_guide

after posting this.

I'm sure that everyone using QRpedia will join me in thanking Terence
for his efforts in responding to our support requests.

Cheers,

The Telegraph didn't just pick up this story from nowhere; it was
obviously fed to them by someone.  And given how the direction the
article takes is in line with Larry Sanger's campaign against
pornography on wikipedia, and that he has publicly denounced Fæ as a
"clown", I wonder if Sanger was not the source of the article.

Fixed now... it reads "Wikimedia UK said it did not have an official view
on pornography on Wikipedia as it does not control the content or have
responsibilty for it." Not quite what we said, but accurate enough for the
Telegraph.

At least they've got a quote from Larry Sanger in there.

Predictably, the story is starting to spread:

http://news.google.co.uk/news/story?gl=uk&pz=1&cf=all&ned=uk&hl=en&q=wikimedia+uk&ncl=drcm1dj39Jz4CfMo-tJUD6HkAFEPM&cf=all&scoring=d

(I think that link will work - it's supposed to be the related stories
page for the Telegraph article.)

So far, the Telegraph is only big name to be running the story, but
it's early yet.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Derbypedia?

[Doug Weller]

He may be a bit of a quack,   he's managed to get quite a few things done.
Here's what he has to say:

I am aware. His views are "unusual" but it seems that here we are looking
for a publicist . and he has the CV for that

I'm not known for my subtelty but Derby needs the guy from V for Vendetta
to explain. Its very busy putting up posters about Derby being the city of
invention with microsoft tags on them ...

TBH they did amend the signs that said they were QR codes

I use xubuntu 12.04 on an almost identical laptop (a Thinkpad
L-420/i3), and can report it has no problems at all dual-booting
beyond a slight bit of confusion in the bootloader. (For some reason,
it thinks there are two Linuxes and two Windows 7 setups on the same
machine. Beats me.) If you'd like me to do the same to these, I can
come in sometime this week or next - I'm working from home several
days, but working from the office is more or less the same...

These are very robust, very pleasant machines to use. Thanks for
getting them, Richard, it'll make future outreach a lot easier to
organise.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Derbypedia?

[Roger Bamkin]

Hey Doug, sounds like you have the inside track. I live in ~Derby and I'm
finding it much easier to cold-call other cities. Actually we get pulled
through the door!

If you care to act as go-between then please have a go. It would renew my
faith in my city if it decides to fully exploit was it created. As I said
we have enough digital stuff to make the city glow.

If you are too busy then say and I'll add it to my list

Well, without wanting to start a complete firestorm, dualbooting Ubuntu
12.04 (LTS) via Wubi is really very easy indeed for 95% of setups [1].
Depending on your internet package, you might want to use the "Download
Ubuntu" link in the bottom left, burn it to CD, insert CD, then run Wubi to
avoid downloading Ubuntu three times over.

I did the same only last week, no problems whatsoever.

[Wikimediauk-l] New Laptops for events

[Richard Symonds]

All,

At the request of a volunteer, we've purchased three more laptops for
events. They're free for any volunteer to take along to events - just ask
us and we'll get them sent to you or the event.

These ones are quite powerful, and relatively lightweight - they're the
same ones that we used at IBM as company laptops. They are extremely robust
- I've seen things happen to them that would make a Mac cry. The laptops
themselves are specced as follows: "Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 15, Intel Core
i3-380M processor, 15.6" screen, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD". They have a webcam,
and a card reader, and a dual-layer DVD+-RW drive.

They all come with Windows 7 installed, but it'd be nice if a volunteer
with experience in open-source software came in and got them to dual-boot
with a suitable version of Linux. Any volunteers?

Was it? My understanding was it was sent to the mailing list, and selected
others.

I did not receive the message independently of that. Not every member is on
the mailing list.

Just a minor point.
