Daniel Zahn is the one who should be able to help you with that, so if you'd like to speed things up, drop him an e-mail: dzahn [at] wikimedia [dot] org. -- Casey Brown (Cbrown1023) caseybrown.org ___ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
Re: [Wikimediauk-l] donate.wikimedia.org.uk has an SSL error

I've implemented a work-around for now (moving direct debit processing over to donate.wikimedia.org.uk and switching to only having SSL on that subdomain) - we'll get a better solution in place before the next fundraiser. Please could you check that it's working properly for you now? (BTW, the issue about being able to donate insecurely was a new one, since our .htaccess should have been insisting on using https. This should also be fixed - please let me know if this is still happening.) I can confirm that it's working properly, at least on my end. My browser doesn't report a certificate error and http automatically redirects to https.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Celtic languages Internet project
On Sun, Sep 20, 2009 at 10:44 AM, Michael Peel em...@mikepeel.net wrote: I propose that a Celtic Wikipedia Project be undertaken to significantly increase the number of articles available in the Celtic languages Looking around, there seems to be a fair number of varieties of Celtic languages [1] , including Gaelic and Welsh. Can anyone clarify this - perhaps they were meaning Manx? They said Celtic language*s*, so I think they were meant all the projects you mentioned. Would it be worth WMUK trying to get in contact with these groups, and trying to assist them? Seems like a good idea to me. -- Casey Brown Cbrown1023 ___ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org

For posting to social networks (like twitter, which you guys have now), Ping.fm http://ping.fm/ is very useful. It posts the same message to a ton of networks. :-) Does anyone know of any other system that is better?
