[00:00] <darkfalls> TParis: The article is sourced. Just not inline.
[00:00] <Gfoley4> turn to ESPN right now if you want to see something really cool
[00:00] <Pancetta> WOOOO
[00:00] <Pancetta> OWOOOo
[00:00] <Pancetta> WOOOOOOO
[00:01] <TParis> darkfalls: WP:V calls for inline citations. It's not a strong oppose, but the other articles contribute to the oppose.
[00:02] <darkfalls> TParis: I don't believe the material can be considered something "challenged or likely to be challenged"
06[00:03] * darkfalls shrugs
[00:03] <kylu> ...and my neighbors are going nuts with the guns and fireworks
[00:04] <lucasoutloud> I wish I had a giant glitter cannon that left a 50 yard trail.
[00:05] <TParis> darkfalls: Honestly, I've got other gripes. That article doesn't pass [[WP:GNG]] either.
[00:05] <TParis> One of the refs appears to be trivial coverage.
[00:06] <darkfalls> his book is notable
[00:07] <TParis> Notability isnt inherited...

[00:10] <TParis> Alright, so why haven't those refs been included by an editor seeking an RFA? That seems basic to me.
[00:10] <Gfoley4> TParis: might want to clear up what article you're talking about. "Road Trip" is a disamb
[00:10] <darkfalls> probably an example of anglo bias tbh, lack of english sources etc.
[00:11] <TParis> Gfoley4: Wow, the capitization of the "t" makes a difference. Ehh, that doesnt seem right to me
[00:12] <darkfalls> TParis: Yeah I realised that yesterday

[00:12] <darkfalls> I was like wtf, when I saw two different articles that had the same title
[00:13] <TParis> darkfalls: Is that yesterday as in a few minutes ago cause it's midnight on the east coast or yesterday as in like 24 hours ago?
[00:13] <CRRaysHead90> happy new year east coasters!
[00:14] <darkfalls> yesterday meaning any time within 48 hrs of now
[00:14] <darkfalls> considering it's probably the 30th when it happened

[00:15] <CRRaysHead90> East coast north america*
[00:15] <LauraHale> America =/= World
[00:16] <CRRaysHead90> never said it did
[00:16] <LauraHale> Always define so the rest of the world knows what you're talking about with out thinking you're one of those idiots from the USA who assumes the world will revolve around you. :)
[00:16] <foks> whoa whoa
[00:16] <foks> he just said happy new year!
[00:17] <foks> chillax :3
[00:18] <Gfoley4> Rather ironic that there is a music show going on in California celebrating the new year - even though it would be 2012 for 3 hours there
[00:18] <Bsadowski1> I wonder what edit was first made in 2012 on Wikipedia.
[00:18] <TParis> Well we already know what the first article was
[00:19] <CRRaysHead90> I don't think the world revolves around us, LauraHale, I'm just used to talking to people in my continent so don't usually have to specify
15[00:19] * Netalarm (~Netalarm@TechEssentials/Netalarm) Quit (Quit: Shutting down )
[00:19] <CRRaysHead90> chill :)
[00:19] <LauraHale> On IRC, never safe to make that assumption unless you're in a place that is specifically for Americans. :)
[00:19] <TParis> http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Buddy%27s_Bug_Hunt&redirect=no

[00:23] <Shirik> it's Gfoley4's fault

[02:21] <The359> Wait, according to that, the J-Alert automatically turns on all televisions and radios and tunes them to one station in the affected area
[02:21] <The359> Really?
[02:22] <Shirik> I don't live there, I know significantly less about J-Alert than I do about EAS, but I think it just pops up over the broadcast

[02:22] <The359> If tsunami warnings are issued, the Emergency Warning Broadcast system breaks into the signal and automatically turns on all radios and televisions in the warned areas tuned to NHK at the time the system is activated, so that the warnings are received properly.

[02:25] <Shirik> I mean I imagine it wouldn't be too difficult. EAS can turn on radios.
[02:25] <Shirik> though I guess for some definition they're already "on"
[02:25] <Silvester> Shirik, It can?
[02:25] <Shirik> sure
[02:26] <Silvester> not if the physical switch is turned off though
[02:26] <Shirik> that tone at the beginning of a message is actually digitally encoded information a radio can use to determine if it should turn on and play the alert
[02:26] <Shirik> well yeah
[02:26] <Shirik> basically the radio is just listening silently
03[02:26] * RudyValencia (me@unaffiliated/rudyvalencia) has joined #wikipedia-en
[02:26] <Silvester> so...
[02:26] <The359> So if the EAS goes off and my car radio is off, it'll turn it on?
[02:27] <Shirik> no, only radios that know how to interpret it
[02:27] <Silvester> How is a radio listening if it's off?
[02:27] <zscout370> Shirik, for the EAS, the broadcast is replaced with a vocal alert and on the TV, a banner.
[02:27] <Pancetta> It's scary as hell too
[02:27] <Gfoley4> so, Imma stop stalking "alert"
[02:27] <Shirik> zscout370: Not sure what that was in response to
[02:28] <Shirik> Silvester: OK take my weather radio for example, when I turn it off, it actually is still sitting there listening to the channel for any EAS activation
[02:28] <Shirik> if it receives one, it decodes it, and if it matches my settings, it turns on and plays the alert
[02:28] <zscout370> Shirik, responding to your comment on how the EAS comes up during a broadcast at 01:22 (according to my timestamp)
[02:28] <Silvester> zscout370, My cable provider breaks into channels with some creepy old man voice saying "PLEASE TUNE TO CABLE CHANNEL TWENTY-TWO FOR MORE EMERGENCY ALERT INFORMATION"
[02:28] <Pancetta> Can radios turn themselves on upon receiving the SAME header? I thought that was only NOAA Weather Radio-type devices.

[03:59] <SigmaWP> Hm... if only divs took !important
[03:59] <wctaiwan> a little customisation à la main page is fine, but don't try to create an HTML world of your own.
[03:59] <foks> Eww, no, go with a grey background
[03:59] <foks> a light grey
[03:59] <matthewrbowker> ^
[03:59] <wctaiwan> foks: what's wrong with white?
[03:59] <matthewrbowker> Yeah, that's pretty bad
[03:59] <matthewrbowker> wctaiwan: Portals want their own feel ... unfortunatly
[03:59] <wctaiwan> :|
[04:00] <wctaiwan> at least don't make it ugly
[04:00] <foks> White isn't really portally
[04:00] <wctaiwan> also, that logo you have for Apple Inc. isn't current, and I'm not sure MS still uses the one you chose.
[04:00] <wctaiwan> "portally"
[04:00] <wctaiwan> OK :P
[04:00] <foks> [[Portal:English football]] is one I got to FPo years ago
[04:00] <SigmaWP> wctaiwan: I didn't choose that
[04:01] <foks> Hell, the Microsoft portal looks nice
[04:01] <SigmaWP> foks: Fortunately, my userpage has many shades of gray :D
[04:01] <wctaiwan> It looks inoffensive.
[04:01] <wctaiwan> your face is many shades of grey.
[04:02] <foks> My English football one is red
[04:02] <foks> but like, red with light red
[04:03] <matthewrbowker> foks: That doesn't look bad
[04:03] <matthewrbowker> SigmaWP: At least make the links grey
[04:03] <foks> you can't do that
[04:03] <SigmaWP> Right
[04:03] <matthewrbowker> ?? It's disabled in stylesheets?
[04:03] <wctaiwan> SigmaWP: http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/imagegallery/logos/logoguidelines.mspx look at their logos. No slanted M on blue there.
[04:04] <wctaiwan> matthewrbowker: you can't change stylesheets.
[04:04] <wctaiwan> (except your own)
[04:04] <matthewrbowker> ah
06[04:04] * matthewrbowker was thinking HTML ... time for bed
[04:04] <foks> There really is no need to change the link colour
[04:04] <SigmaWP> Someone put {{Boxheader|border=#7878790|titlebackground=#bbb|titleforeground=#000|title{{{title|Foobar}}}|border=lightgray|background=#edf1f1|foreground=black}} in a sandbox
[04:04] <foks> just make the background paler
[04:04] <wctaiwan> you cannot set selectors (? can't remember the right term) without stylesheets since style="" only affects the style of an element, not an element in a certain state.
[04:04] <SigmaWP> foks: ^
[04:04] <foks> why don't you
[04:04] <SigmaWP> because you can't see what is on my preview screen
[04:05] <wctaiwan> also, design is making something readable and pleasant to look at.
[04:05] <wctaiwan> the wow factor really doesn't matter at all on wikipedia :/
[04:05] <foks> wctaiwan, does with portals :(
[04:05] <SigmaWP> Mhmm
[04:06] <SigmaWP> It's one of the featured portal criteria

[04:06] <SigmaWP> OK
[04:06] <wctaiwan> foks: nothing to be sorry about :P
[04:06] <SigmaWP> How about gray?
[04:06] <wctaiwan> sure.
[04:06] <wctaiwan> just put readability above distinctiveness

[04:08] <foks> Main box
[04:08] <wctaiwan> that one you just named is a really, really pale green
[04:08] <foks> For the titles, white text on ... maybe 339733
[04:09] <Aranda56> and i was embarrassed to go with friends to other places because I don't want to be seen with having absolutely no money in my pockets, and in my bank accounts very depressing
[04:09] <foks> Maybe a bit stronger green
[04:09] <Aranda56> :(
[04:09] <foks> 33B133
[04:10] <SigmaWP> Nice
[04:10] <wctaiwan> (oh also, in general, I find that if you're going to have a large patch of the same colour, make it dull: either dark or light, don't go for liveliness)
[04:10] <foks> mhm

[04:15] <Aranda56> foks he had a few top 10 hits last year :p
[04:15] <foks> In the States I reckon
[04:15] <foks> no sign of him in the UK

[04:25] <foks> Uh?
[04:25] <wctaiwan> nice design though, I tried the colour-on-hover idea a few years back but not nearly as well done as yours.
[04:25] <foks> wctaiwan, oh, is that like illegal D:

[04:26] <wctaiwan> It's probably not illegal but I don't know whether tumblr wants people to use them as a general web host.
06[04:26] * Aranda56 didn't even know a song could be ranked 123rd
[04:26] <foks> wctaiwan, oh, I guess not.
[04:27] <foks> I meant "illegal" as in against TOS

[04:39] <Pine> wctaiwan are you done with poisoning things now? ;)
[04:39] <Sp33dyphil> why green? I don't associate programming with green :P
[04:39] <wctaiwan> always ready for more, why?
[04:39] <wctaiwan> Sp33dyphil: old computer terminals
[04:40] <Sp33dyphil> Pine: you do GAN reviews?

[04:43] <SigmaWP> Sp33dyphil: Your GAs are no match for my featured portals
[04:43] <Pine> Phil that looks good at first glance
[04:43] <Pine> I'm a bit involved in FPCs right now

[04:44] <wctaiwan> collapsing anything that isn't a nav template just feels odd.
[04:44] <SigmaWP> I can't find any DYKs about computer programming

[04:47] <SigmaWP> Was that in DYK?
[04:47] <wctaiwan> IDK :P
[04:48] <wctaiwan> though I found that pretty interesting when I first heard about it
[04:49] <SigmaWP> Where do I link "platforms"?
[04:49] <wctaiwan> that isn't a DYK, just to be clear.
[04:49] <wctaiwan> I just wrote that on the spot.

[07:03] <lapompo> Stop wishing everyone a happy new year. It's not happy for me. It's an insult.
[07:03] <wctaiwan> "The product was introduced by McVitie and Price in 1927"
[07:03] <wctaiwan> wouldn't that be enough?
[07:03] <lapompo> Never heard of that company, and I've seen Jaffa Cakes by various companies.
[07:04] <wctaiwan> (also, I found the cake-biscuit dispute hilarious)
[07:04] <wctaiwan> I'd assume it's some sort of a (generic?) trademark and they're the original maker.
[07:04] <lapompo> How can there be a generic trademark?
[07:04] <wctaiwan> if you can find a source on that many manufacturers make them, feel free to add it.
[07:05] <wctaiwan> "A generic trademark, also known as a genericized trademark or proprietary eponym, is a trademark or brand name that has become the colloquial or generic description for, or synonymous with, a general class of product or service, rather than as an indicator of source or affiliation ("secondary meaning") as intended by the trademark's holder."
[07:05] <wctaiwan> in short, something used to be a trademark but is now generic
[07:05] <lapompo> It's weird how being too popular is bad.
[07:05] <wctaiwan> e.g. Kleenex and Xerox in the US
[07:05] <lapompo> Are you saying that Kleenex has lost the right to the name?
[07:05] <wctaiwan> I think so.
[07:06] <lapompo> Just because idiots call any towel that?
[07:06] <lapompo> That's insane.
[07:06] <wctaiwan> oh wait, no, they still have rights to it.
[07:06] <lapompo> Americans seem to speak in trademarks.
[07:06] <lapompo> More often than the real words.
[07:07] <lapompo> I need a Band-Aid ASAP, and get me some Kleenex and a few glasses of Kool-Aid!
[07:07] <lapompo> Later, we'll have Jell-O and Oreos!
[07:07] <lapompo> :/
[07:08] <wctaiwan> It's not just the americans, I'd think.
[07:09] <wctaiwan> (looks like neither Kleenex or Xerox has actually ceased being trademarks. Better examples: aspirin, thermos, zipper)

[08:42] <Harmonia_Amanda> sorry for my bad english
[08:42] <Lubaf> How do you mean "re-write"?
[08:42] <TParis> Harmonia_Amanda: On the English Wikipedia, we don't allow interviews by Wikipedians to be used as sources in articles.
[08:42] <Lubaf> Translate, or rephrase?
[08:43] <Lubaf> And, what TParis said.
[08:43] <Harmonia_Amanda> TBloemink: I know it is for the french wikinews
[08:43] <Harmonia_Amanda> not for wikipedia
06[08:43] * TParis isnt sure of the rules over there
[08:43] <Lubaf> Translate? Try on #wikipedia-fr, presumably.
