Brilliant! I love it! Celticfan383 10:18, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm coming onto the chat. I like this idea very much. Celticfan383 10:28, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

The ticker

Hi ! I would like to signale you a bug on the french WN ticker. When you are clicking on some links, they lead to an unexisting page because of a problem of URL. As an example, the ticker France : confirmation de l'annulation d'une élection municipale partielle à Anchamps should point to [1] whereas it points to : [2]. As you can easily see it, the ticker code introduce (for a space before :) the following code %26#160.3B which is created instead of a space or an underscore insertion. Have you any idea to debug it ? See you ! Grimlock 09:08, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

On {{W}}

We used to have that already. It failed on WN:DR, so I doubt it will last. :) irid:t 21:35, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Please also note that Category:Overly complex systems designed by TheFearow should not be added to categories you create. We are not Wikipedia. Thanks :) —FellowWiki Newsie 21:36, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

It's pretty buried. You know you can type [[w:Article|]] and it will expand, right? irid:t 21:37, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

What test? —FellowWiki Newsie 21:43, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Ok. Sounds like a good idea. —FellowWiki Newsie 22:13, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

I just wanted to say

*hug* Thank you for making it go away! Thank you thank you thank you! *hug* irid:t 22:28, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

You know what you did. :) irid:t 22:30, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

I saw that, actually. I largely agree with everything you say there. Although I balk on moving non-English submissions to other Wikinews languages. It's frustrating enough to cope with articles that we can't read. It's worse to try and navigate a wikinews that I can't read at the same time. irid:t 22:33, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

{{w}}

I just nominated that template for deletion as it has been deleted twice already, and really isn't very useful. Bawolff ☺☻ 21:08, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Yet another ticker question

Hello the TheFearow. I am mainly active on de.wikinews. Is it possible to implement the ticker there? Of course, I'll ask the community if they want to use it somewhere, first. It's really nice tool. --SonicR 21:53, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Regarding {{WTF}}, and, oh by the way

Well, I am really sorry for creating the whole mess surrounding {{WTF}}. I wasn't aware that so many people would have a problem with it. I really feel the DR on it is pretty ridiculous, but, what can you do. It doesn't look like it will be deleted (no consensus on what I've seen so far) but, even so, as you and I are the only contributers, we can opt to delete it ourselves.

I mean, if you think that is a better route, since that's how you deleted. :)

Man. Drama. I didn't think this still happened on Wikinews. Heh. irid:t 23:55, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and by the way!

Thanks for including {{Tasks}} on two articles. That made my heart warm. :) irid:t 23:55, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi Matt

Confusing username change, but we'll get used to it. Welcome Matt! --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 20:02, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Ticker broken?

The ticker has disappeared from the main page. I have no clue why. Good news is, it is still functioning on the French Wikinews. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 00:25, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

uTube story

Not to mention your original reporting, I know. I try to fight... I'll be doing something, trying to fight it I guess. Regards. -Edbrown05 10:15, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Ticker on Wikipedia

Hi,

I'd like to add the ticker to my Wikipedia user page but so far my attempts have been unsuccessful. It's the best feature I've seen so far, and would even love to see it integrated into the Wikipedia main page.

Thanks in advance for the help. mjwilson (^Talk/_Contrib) 15:02, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Could I put the js information in a page under my user page, put the ticker on my user page and have it call there for the code? mjwilson (^Talk/_Contrib) 21:22, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Per Page Javascript

Hello, I'm b:User:Whiteknight from en.wikibooks. I saw your per-page javascript function, and am taking it for a test-drive. Eventually, I would like to implement something like it on en.wikibooks (except it would be per-book, not per page). My current implementation of it is shown at: b:User:Whiteknight/perpage.js. I've already made a few modifications, but the funcionality is basically the same. I do have a question, the script appears to not work correctly in IE7, although it works perfectly in FF. Is this a known issue with your script, or is it an artifact of my changes? Neither javascript nor stylesheets for each page appear to be loading correctly. --Whiteknight Reply 13:43, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

IRC

Hi Matt. I was hoping you might have some advice on the IRC cloak. I am pretty sure I set it up properly and that it was working before (I am not on IRC often). Is there anything I need to do? Should I go through the process to register it again? Thanks! Jcart1534 03:28, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
