IRC - where Misplaced Pages's real decisons are taken!

  • here was the pathetic result; I never accepted it, it was unenforcable and as a consequence not one of these blocks held (just look at the admins names - what became of any of them?) and the Arbcom was rightly reduced in stature as a result. It has learnt nothing! Nothing at all!

"Williamite"

Since "Williamite" is a style designation applied to the former Stoke Edith House, I've made an addition to "Williamite". Can you improve it? (I'd never use the term myself.)--Wetman (talk) 14:44, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

  • That's a new term for me, I have always called them Carolean. Would I be write in thinking that the now desyroyed Coleshill House wouldhave come under that umbrella? I will have a look around through the library tomoworrow (when I have more time). Very interesting. Giacomo Returned 16:34, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

I woul dhave thought that saying : "plan drawn by me for use in futire article; this is a prototye uploaded to see how it looks in scale and size. Template:"PD-self Keep local) made it perfectly obvious to even the most stupid what the image is required for. Furthermore, it links to an unfinished page in user space.

SOPA Blackout

Hi Giacomo. I was wondering where you stand on the SOPA blackout. Personally I think the blackout is a bad idea. If Jimbo and Sue (who does not speak for me) want to make a statement on SOPA, they should find another way. PumpkinSky talk 03:28, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

Politicizing what should be a neutral encyclopedia is a horrible idea. Now wiki is a political action committee. PumpkinSky talk 03:37, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
  • I have not really been following the debate. I am in favour of the reasonable upholding of copyright laws. However, I rently read of the sad case of a young student, about the same age as one of my own children, who is being extradited to America (which is obviously a very unpleasant experience) and think that in the USA there is a certain amount of over zelousness concerning these matters. I am sure that the world will survive 24 hours without Misplaced Pages - I may even take it as an opportunity to rekindle the passion in my marriage. Giacomo Returned 09:37, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
