[18:47] <Fluffernutter> well, i spread my language wings rather broadly
[18:47] <KFP> Fluffernutter: Ymm盲rr盲n.
[18:48] <Kingturtle> is there an article about the culture that has 12 words for snow?
[18:48] <oona> inuit?
[18:48] <killiondude> eskimos?
[18:48] <Fluffernutter> English, Spanish, Czech, Basque, Amharic, Italian
[18:48] <Olipro> Fluffernutter: how broadly?
[18:48] <{Soap}> there's [[Eskimo words for snow]]
[18:48] <Olipro> dang it, timing
06[18:48] * Fluffernutter tries to think if there were more
[18:48] <{Soap}> which states that it's basically a myth
[18:48] <{Soap}> though not, technically, false
[18:48] <Fluffernutter> i've forgotten most of each of those other than spanish though
[18:48] <{Soap}> they do have 12 words for snow. But then, if you think about it, so does English
[18:49] <Fluffernutter> inuktitut is also agglutinative, which makes it hard to determine what is "a word" for snow
[18:49] <{Soap}> snow, flurry, blizzard, drift, plus things like sleet, slush, etc
[18:49] <{Soap}> I made a list once
[18:49] <{Soap}> including some rather obscure terms that most people wouldnt use in day to day life but that are still good English
[18:50] <Qcoder00> Sorry to bother the channel, any experts on reactor design in?

[18:51] <Qcoder00> I'm NOT Iranian , I'm British
[18:51] <Qcoder00> I need someone that's familar with reactor designs to help deal with some ZOMG The JAPANESE NUKE PLANT'S GOING TO BLOW! type crazies in #defocus :(
[18:52] <{Soap}> just ignore them

06[18:57] * Fluffernutter doesn't want trash
[18:57] <IShadowed> Motherfucking family-oriented shit
[18:57] <killiondude> hey there.
[18:57] <killiondude> ##politics can be entertaining
[18:57] <IShadowed> hey.
[18:58] <Olipro> it can
[18:58] <killiondude> it was when the wikileaks stuff was happening
[18:58] <IShadowed> "entertaining"
[18:58] <Olipro> it's usually people railing against "niggers" destroying the country
[18:58] <russet> There's always  #familyfriendly
[18:58] <Guerillero> why are you inclusing two #s
[18:58] <Olipro> or alternatively "jews" taking it over
[18:58] <IShadowed> Someone high as fuck is 'entertaining' too, doesn't mean crap
[18:58] <{Soap}> some channels have two #'s
[18:58] <Guerillero> O.o
[18:58] <{Soap}> it's one of the quirks of freenode
[18:58] <Olipro> if a channel has 2 #'s then it's an about channel

06[18:58] * Fluffernutter stares
[18:59] <Olipro> for example, it's ##windows because it's about windows
[18:59] <Olipro> if a channel is official, it gets one #
[18:59] <killiondude> instead of owned by windows
[18:59] <Olipro> right
[18:59] <russet> There's always  #familyfriendly
[18:59] <killiondude> So you've said.

[19:33] <Demiurge1000> yeah but it'll stop people vandalising the article if the place in question has a total meltdown and burns through the centre of the earth and comes out in Argentina
[19:34] <Qcoder00> A meltdown is unlikely

[19:35] <geniice> Demiurge1000 because it's been a while since we last had a meltdown

[20:09] <OlEnglish> oh really? neat
[20:09] <{Soap}> I dont think it was failed because it didnt work, it's just that they have so many new images coming in all the time that people couldnt keep up
[20:09] <voronika> playing with the fstop and iso settings, you could theoretically get more light, even with the smoke, but the movement of light due to smoke may fuzz some parts.

[21:14] <dcoetzee> ED is pretty decidedly notable by now.
[21:15] <voronika> but it went through a long time of rejection
[21:15] <dcoetzee> True.
[21:15] <dcoetzee> I used to have a list.
[21:15] <dcoetzee> Not sure where it went...

[22:18] <SMasters> Hello
[22:18] <slon02> 69% is certain failure, right?
[22:18] <slon02> regarding RfAs
[22:19] <SMasters> I really hate how the "edit" links are now next to the sub-headings.
[22:19] <Guerillero> is 75% the threash hold
[22:19] <sonia> SMasters: they're not
[22:19] <sonia> SMasters: have you got some gadget checked?
[22:19] <sonia> or are you, perchance, on de.wp or fr.wp? :P
[22:19] <SMasters> Yes, slon02
[22:19] <Gfoley4> slon02: it's really up to the crat, though
[22:20] <SMasters> somia, I'm not sure, it just happened in the last 8 hours
[22:20] <slon02> ok, thanks
[22:21] <Guerillero> you could be My76Strat slon
[22:22] <SMasters> I wonder why I have the stupid edit thingo? Maybe I need to uninstall the Wikilove gadget
[22:23] <slon02> with him it's barely a majority in support
[22:23] <slon02> although I never comment on other RfAs
[22:23] <Gfoley4> ~54%
[22:23] <Gfoley4> 52
[22:23] <Guerillero> I like the guy but his replies are tl;dr
[22:23] <sonia> they scare me
[22:24] <sonia> takes me far too long to try to understand them
[22:24] <slon02> they just scared me too
[22:24] <Guerillero> they are making me rethink my support
[22:24] <slon02> but I noticed that not a lot of questions were asked in that RfA, or in mine
[22:25] <slon02> well, I mean, there weren't a lot of random and irrelevant questions asked that I've seen before
[22:25] <LiteralKa> invite mc-joe
[22:27] <SMasters> slon02: RfA says: as a general descriptive rule of thumb most of those above ~80% approval pass; most of those below ~70% fail, and the area between is subject to bureaucratic discretion.
[22:27] <Gfoley4> "crat chat"
[22:28] <Gfoley4> e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Lear's_Fool/Bureaucrat_discussion
[22:29] <Guerillero> you have 2-3 bs opposes so it could work out in the end
[22:31] <Amgine> Someone moved it, Guerillero. And it has already been tagged for deletion.

[22:38] <SMasters> Do "weak support" count as half points?
[22:39] <slon02> in general consensus terms, I'd say they would count for less than full support, but it depends on other factors
[22:40] <sonia> ...
[22:41] <SMasters> We count them as half points at [[WP:FPC]]
[22:41] <sonia> SMasters: not really a vote per se, so they don't count as either halfs or wholes
[22:42] <dcoetzee> Amgine: If Wikinews stopped uploading copyvios we wouldn't have a problem :-P
[22:42] <SMasters> So, the bot calculation is not very accurate.
[22:43] <Gfoley4> yeah, the strength of the argument counts
[22:43] <Amgine> dcoetzee: of course, everything uploaded from Wikinews is copyvio. Nothing but. Constant stream of it, in fact.
[22:44] <sonia> SMasters the percentage is an easy guide if it's over 80 or under 60 but otherwise, really, crat decides how happy the community is
[22:44] <dcoetzee> Amgine: And we don't delete everything that comes from Wikinews either :-P
[22:45] <Amgine> I have lists of a couple thousand files, dcoetzee. And those are the ones *not* delinkered.

[22:46] <dcoetzee> Amgine: That's not "resolving the root problem", that's ignoring the Foundation's legal obligations.
[22:46] <dcoetzee> You could end up getting Wikinews shut down that way.
[22:47] <Amgine> No. It's solving the problem because Wikinews has needs which are not supported by Commons. Doesn't mean that site is right or wrong, just a different mandate.
[22:48] <dcoetzee> Needs to evade the oversight of people who care about copyright policy?
[22:48] <Guerillero> can the titans please not clash tonight
[22:48] <Amgine> Will happily move the discussion to a more appropriate venue.
[22:49] <SMasters> ITN put up a copyvio image on the front page a few hours ago for the earthquake. That's why there's not a Libyan flag there now.
[22:49] <SMasters> I mean there's a Libyan...
