Typical ARSEnal fan...always blaming someone else. Surely you should have seen this coming and planned better!

It must be murder trekking up to Old Trafford every week from Devon...

Sniggers.

Good Duck.

Hush duckie, nothing to do with planning better, if Leeds had gone through instead of us they probably would have left it on the Saturday. It's not just us ESPN have done it to, they've done it a fair few times before. Plus ESPN have Savage and Keegan, thats irritating enough as it is.

Do you know, and I might be wrong here but I kind of think I see an inkling - I think Johnny 1989 might be a bit upset.

I'm alright now Yuds, having thought about it I do get 3 days off work which is always a good thing.

Wiki being down to protest SOPA tomorrow is going to be a pain whilst I'm writing essays. I'm aware you're not meant to use it, but it's handy for little tidbits so long as you don't reference them!

[bmstinton93]

Oh crap. We're all meant to be doing our coursework together tomorrow. Wikipedia would have come in handy.

[MK Chris]

It would appear that mobile apps (such as Wapedia for Android) are able to access. Also the mobile site is up, which you can access from a desktop web browser by going to en.m.wikipedia.org rather than en.wikipedia.org.

After Chris reading out Dom's wiki entry on the show the other day, you should all know better than to trust it for academic purposes! But it's handy as a starting-off point for other, hopefully more reliable source material. Incidentally, I used to be a member of a Lost forum where the rules were so strict that in the 'Serious Discussion and Debates' section, it was specified that, when making an argument, you weren't allowed to use wiki as your source. And people think we're heavily moderated here

[MK Chris]

Who thinks we're heavily moderated?

[Nicola_Red]

Who thinks we're heavily moderated?

Well, if you will ask...

It's heavy compared to how we used to be modded, I just think all the messing is unnecessary.

I believe that was in reference to Ben's celeb raspberry archive.

This forum is too modded these days.

That was in reference to me warning a badgering poster in Ask Aled.

Gaspode has also made comments to the same effect, I just can't lay my hands on any right now. I believe that's why he no longer posts here.

Good shout. Always good to have Wiki there just in case. My mind will draw a blank at some point today.

Who Cares?


As Dave would say....

[Nicola_Red]

You mean "*yawn* no one cares"

Ironically, I do often use wiki to check Dave's facts when I'm doing the Tedious.

[Bonanzoid]

A lot of people care apparently too! To the point where Encarta is trending on Twitter.

[bmstinton93]

Is that still being made?

[bmstinton93]

OK, so I just typed Encarta into Google to find out and of course the top result which looked like it was going to explain it was wikipedia. Damn.

Ahh, but that's all mainly because you edit and move things a lot more than Chris or Console ever did - that's a fact, though it possibly has slowed down of late - not because of more warnings to people (I know one of the comments was in response to a warning, but it's a case of the straw that broke the camel's back). I think everyone recognises the rules are very relaxed here.

[Nicola_Red]

I do, that's very true. I freely admit I have OCD and I like a tidy forum.

[bmstinton93]

Yeah that wasn't working for me. It turns out that when you do a search it black out so you then have to go back to the url and put the .m in.

[MK Chris]

But Wiki URLs are so easy to guess, you can normally type them without Google. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/[Subject_matter]

[bmstinton93]

It turns out you can access the full version of wikipedia still by simply disabling javascript. I've just done it and it works.

[MK Chris]

I do, that's very true. I freely admit I have OCD and I like a tidy forum.

But why should your OCD come into things that you do on this forum for other people? You managed the way it was before you had heightened priveleges...

That's a pain if you can't do it on a site-by-site basis though.

[Bonanzoid]

I like to think I'm at least a bit computer savvy, but I have no idea how to disable Javascript.

[bmstinton93]

If you're on Google Chrome then you click the spanner, then Options, then under the bonnet, content settings, then click the 'manage exceptions' button under javascript and block wikipedia from accessing it. For any other browser just type it into twitter and there will be instructions somewhere.

I managed, but I like it better now I can tidy things up that used to bug me before.
