Recognition
Nice article on James Anderson in January LDSTech newsletter.

Time Out
Not even 2 minutes? That is what happened early Monday morning. I wasn't even 1 minute into editing when the 2 minutes warning notice came up to save. (reported to Forums) dsammy 08:37, 25 January 2010 (UTC)


 * I got on about 1pm, no real problem with it, in fact, it seems to be a longer period before it goes out now. JamesAnderson 23:39, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Un-portal conversions &amp; redirects
Would it be a good idea to add a redirect from the portal page to the unportal page so users get sent to the new page automatically, or would it end up being a bigger hassle for the sysops when trying to locate and delete pages? Redirects do mean knowing how to get to the edit page differently than standard methods. Adding a redirect would be easy to do and updating the instructions is no big deal either - I'm just wanting to find out the potential pros and cons to doing so.

 * We don't want any redirects connected with the Portals. WE are trying to wipe them out of existence. Delete template on portals like you have been doing so far so good. One of the sysops get the notices of delete requests to take care of. dsammy 18:13, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Inconsistencies
We have some inconsistency within the Wiki regarding the terminology used when referring to sites on the internet. It is NOT cleared up on the Manual of Style page. Is it websites, web sites, Web sites, or some other term or spacing of words? Jimmy B. Parker 23:24, 25 January 2010 (UTC)


 * This quirky question can be answered at this site "Should it be Web site or website?" . So if it is heading it is simply "Web Sites" since it is very clear and to the point. If it is in the article it is simply either web sites or websites. Take your pick. dsammy 03:32, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
