[20:03] Solar_Dragon Yep, apart from the few bugs we've had
[20:03] Phinbart I'm currently waiting for the latest Fish Hooks ep to be uploaded to Youtube. My regular supplier got terminated.

[20:05] AleWi They move from poland to USA the server.
[20:05] Clg Poland??
[20:05] Solar_Dragon Moved to Skizzerz' back up server
[20:05] Solar_Dragon The server was in Poland
[20:06] Phinbart I had to use my brain last night to remember the events of "Old Yeller-Belly" to add a bit to the treehouse page.
[20:06] Solar_Dragon Why not just watch the ep again?
[20:06] Cook879 that would be too easy :{
[20:06] Cook879 *:P
[20:06] Solar_Dragon Which reminds me, we may have to terminate our affiliation with IWTSO
[20:07] Phinbart Why?
[20:07] Solar_Dragon They haven't updated their link and I can't get through to them
[20:07] Phinbart Updated link?
[20:07] Solar_Dragon link to us
[20:07] Cook879 http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/07/08/homer-simpson-invitation-prince-william-kate-middleton/
[20:07] Solar_Dragon They still have ShoutWiki
[20:07] Phinbart Oh!
[20:08] Phinbart Also, Season 23 premieres this September 25th.
[20:08] AleWi I look again the part if I write something.
[20:09] Phinbart Huh?
[20:09] Clg Next topic.......
[20:09] Solar_Dragon Still haven't discussed the comp to omuch
[20:09] Solar_Dragon *too much
[20:09] Solar_Dragon Three entrants is not enough
[20:09] Solar_Dragon And first place is first by a mile
[20:09] AleWi In a few months we have the season 14 on DVD, i should order that next week.
[20:10] Clg Everyone here should enter.
[20:10] Phinbart I think Mythigator's winning at the moment.
[20:10] Solar_Dragon Except me obviously
[20:10] Solar_Dragon At the moment, everyone who entered will win a prize
[20:10] Cook879 wasn't it also meant to get us new editors?
[20:10] Phinbart Ooooooh...the lottery.
[20:10] AleWi I should also add part of my contribution on the comp.
[20:11] Phinbart My comment there was off-topic.
[20:11] Solar_Dragon That's good AleWi, I'll also offer international postage
[20:11] Solar_Dragon Just a bit Phinbart
[20:11] Clg Postage free?
[20:11] Phinbart He-he.
[20:11] Solar_Dragon is secretly hoping that Brits win, not overseas people
[20:11] Phinbart Huh?
[20:11] Solar_Dragon Free postage too, yes
[20:12] Solar_Dragon Overseas postage would cost more
[20:12] AleWi There are some who write here from the U.S. and New Zealand also.
[20:12] Solar_Dragon Mythigator is American, second place is British
[20:12] Phinbart So's third place.
[20:12] Solar_Dragon Yep
[20:13] Clg Are you using 1st class or 2nd class?
[20:13] Cook879 visitors declined yesterday
[20:13] Phinbart Why does Sky1 always stop airing new episodes of Season 22? We've just got "The Real Housewives of Fat Tony" here.
[20:13] Solar_Dragon Whatever Winning Moves uses (I'll order direct from them)
[20:14] Solar_Dragon Visitors have been declining for a while
[20:14] Solar_Dragon A few days
[20:14] Solar_Dragon OK, new skin design comp
[20:14] AleWi I have not seen clear season 22 either, here is break to fall.
[20:14] Solar_Dragon Anyone else going to enter?
[20:14] Cook879 well we went up again but dropped lower
[20:14] Solar_Dragon I know
[20:14] Cook879 someone could combine the skins
[20:14] Clg When are you going to end it?
[20:15] Phinbart On August 1st. I think.
[20:15] Cook879 well it was a month from July 7, but that's been
[20:16] Solar_Dragon It was going to but I'm waiting for Jake to submit his skin design
[20:16] Solar_Dragon Maybe I should remind him
[20:16] AleWi If the winner it outside the EU there may be to the customs.
[20:16] AleWi In the comp
[20:17] Phinbart Does anyone know what time 9pm PST is in GMT time?
[20:17] Solar_Dragon Winning Moves offers worlwide postage so no worries
[20:17] Solar_Dragon It's BST atm Phinbart
[20:17] Solar_Dragon British Summer Time
[20:17] AleWi They have summer time in US too
[20:17] Phinbart That's what I ment.
[20:18] Phinbart So...
[20:18] AleWi 5 am
[20:18] AleWi wrong
[20:18] Phinbart 5am! Tomorrow morning!
[20:18] Phinbart Oh.
[20:18] Solar_Dragon PDT is 12:18
[20:19] Phinbart PST
[20:19] Solar_Dragon So, anyone want to combine the skin designs?
[20:19] Solar_Dragon PDT is the summer version of PST
[20:19] Phinbart Right.
[20:19] AleWi http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/pacific-time/
[20:19] Solar_Dragon Just like BST is the summer version of GMT
[20:20] Phinbart Looks like I'm not the only one on the internet who made a mistake with the summer time zones.
[20:20] AleWi PDT end on Sunday 6 November 2011
[20:20] Phinbart November?
[20:20] Solar_Dragon Why can't the whole world have the same time?
[20:20] Solar_Dragon And speak the same language?
[20:21] Clg Time Zones are confusing
[20:21] Solar_Dragon Make things easier
[20:21] Phinbart I know. It's so confusing.
[20:21] -->| cjc (~chatzilla@cpc1-slou2-2-0-cust202.haye.cable.virginmedia.com) has joined #wikisimpsons
[20:21] =-= Mode #wikisimpsons +o cjc by ChanServ
[20:21] Solar_Dragon Any way, bugs with the wiki
[20:21] Solar_Dragon Hi cjc, been keeping a log
[20:21] Clg hey cjc
[20:21] Solar_Dragon http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/Wikisimpsons:Editor_meetings/July_9th
[20:21] Phinbart CJC's here!
[20:21] cjc hey
[20:21] cjc cool cool
[20:22] Solar_Dragon You may have noticed that polls aren't working
[20:22] cjc can't say I have
[20:22] Solar_Dragon Jake is trying to fix this but in the meantime, we need a workaround
[20:22] |<-- AleWi has left irc.shoutwiki.com (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[20:23] -->| AleWi (53fb5072@ircip2.mibbit.com) has joined #wikisimpsons
[20:23] Solar_Dragon For Golden Homer polls, they'll instead be listed with users voting by signing their name underneath
[20:23] Solar_Dragon Hopefully, they would have been fixed by then though
[20:23] Clg Workaround could be people just signing
[20:23] Solar_Dragon <_<
[20:24] Phinbart Cook879, got the new Simpsons Comic yet?
[20:24] Clg Other bugs?
[20:24] Solar_Dragon Okay, CategoryTOC no longer works
[20:24] Solar_Dragon Not sure how to get around that, it works on Wikipedia still
[20:25] Cook879 i don't buy new comics
[20:25] AleWi The wiki form not works
[20:25] Phinbart Oh.
[20:25] Solar_Dragon Yes, the forum doesn't work either although that is a lesser bug
[20:25] Solar_Dragon And BASEPAGENAME no longer works
[20:25] Clg Main page social profiles glitch
[20:25] Solar_Dragon There is a workaround but it is not fun
[20:25] Phinbart What?
[20:25] Solar_Dragon Again, that is a lesser bug
[20:26] Clg That'll never get fixed
[20:26] Solar_Dragon For BASEPAGENAME, we could go about adding something to the EpisodePrevNextApp/Ref etc.
[20:26] Phinbart Or will it?
[20:26] Solar_Dragon Like |name=Episode name
[20:26] Solar_Dragon Social profile thing, no idea about that
[20:26] Phinbart Hmm...I like it.
[20:27] Clg There's still the Retrieved from "http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/Main_Page" at the bottom of the main page
[20:27] Phinbart That's BIG.
[20:27] Solar_Dragon We would have to add it to like 500 episodes though, and the tabs
[20:27] Phinbart and wierd.
[20:27] Solar_Dragon Thanks Clg, need to remind Jake about that
[20:27] Phinbart That's a bummer.
[20:28] AleWi is there anyone who can make a robot?
[20:28] Clg there's 3
[20:28] Clg Solar's, Cook's, and mine
[20:29] Cook879 i doubt AWB could do it
[20:29] Solar_Dragon I don't think AWB can do it, nor can Pywikipedia
[20:29] Phinbart AWB? Pywikipedia? What the...?
[20:29] Solar_Dragon Actually, maybe it can
[20:30] Clg maybe we could create a code
[20:30] Solar_Dragon No, it can't
[20:30] Phinbart Ok, I have NO idea what you guys are taking about.
[20:30] Solar_Dragon Doubt it, that would take longer that if we were to do it manually
[20:30] Solar_Dragon AWB and Pywikipedia are bots
[20:30] Solar_Dragon Bot software I mean
[20:31] Clg A code is quite hard to explain.....
[20:34] Clg Next topic then
[20:35] Phinbart Solar's back.
[20:35] Solar_Dragon Simpsons Fanon viewers are bad
[20:35] Solar_Dragon Graph: http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/File:Simpsons_Fanon_viewers.png
[20:36] Solar_Dragon That was what I was trying to post
[20:36] Solar_Dragon I didn't want to save it though
[20:36] Solar_Dragon Wanted a direct link
[20:36] Cook879 Solar_Dragon: how do i get on the simpsons fanon piwik?
[20:36] AleWi Fan series are not of equal interest.
[20:36] Phinbart The number of articles in the statisitics is way different from the actual number of articles on Simpsons Fanon.
[20:36] Cook879 forgot we had a fanon wiki now
[20:36] Solar_Dragon On the right hand side, there should be a dropdown box for simpsonswiki Cook879
[20:36] Solar_Dragon Click on that
[20:37] cjc peaked 12?
[20:37] Cook879 cheers
[20:37] Phinbart The number of fanon eps is 47, there are "26" articles.
[20:37] Solar_Dragon 13
[20:37] Clg OMG 12!
[20:37] Cook879 98 visitors altogether
[20:37] Solar_Dragon Leave Jake a message Phinbart
[20:37] Phinbart What are you guys talking about
[20:37] Solar_Dragon Simpsons Fanon viewers
[20:37] Phinbart I think I'll do that later.
[20:38] AleWi 480 visitors
[20:38] Phinbart Is the webchat on Simpsons Fanon different to this web chat?
[20:38] Solar_Dragon No
[20:39] Solar_Dragon In fact, all viewers for Simpsons Fanon are from the UK
[20:39] Phinbart is shocked!
[20:39] Solar_Dragon We need to get it out there to the www more
[20:40] AleWi The most common are own ads but it costs.
[20:40] Phinbart Anyone want a sneak peek at an episode I'll be posting soon on Simpsons Fanon?
[20:40] Solar_Dragon I'm gonna ask Smiley to make a button for it and ask for affiliation with other sites
[20:40] Solar_Dragon Phinbart, do you use Chrome?
[20:41] Phinbart Yes! Why?
[20:41] Solar_Dragon The pie chart for browsers is just one block of colour
[20:41] Cook879
[20:41] Solar_Dragon The browser is chrome
[20:41] cjc so the only user is Phinbart @{
[20:41] Phinbart Ha-ha!
[20:41] cjc :P*
[20:42] Phinbart A few other users have posted fanon eps.
[20:42] Phinbart Does anyone use the original Wikisimpsons forums created last December?
[20:43] Clg NO
[20:43] Solar_Dragon Ooh, the Portoguese Simpsons Wikia has expressed an interest to move
[20:43] Clg YAY!
[20:43] Solar_Dragon *Portuguese
[20:43] Solar_Dragon Got a message via Twitter
[20:43] Cook879 they are always tweeting - don't understand a word of it
[20:44] Solar_Dragon They use Translate to talk to me
[20:44] Solar_Dragon
[20:44] Solar_Dragon *Google Translate
[20:44] Cook879 thats what i did when i was interwiking
[20:45] Phinbart Next topic? Rise up the google Rankings.
[20:45] Solar_Dragon We are already quite high already
[20:45] Phinbart So, can we skip that one?
[20:45] Solar_Dragon Once the ShoutWiki wiki closes, we'll be higher
[20:45] AleWi If i search simpsons wiki its on place 9
[20:46] AleWi shotwiki is on place 6
[20:46] Solar_Dragon 9 for me too
[20:46] AleWi wikia is on the top
[20:46] Solar_Dragon Same
[20:46] Solar_Dragon Oh yeah, that reminds me
[20:46] Solar_Dragon You now need an account to edit Simpsons Wikia
[20:46] Solar_Dragon And you need email confirmed
[20:46] Phinbart 7th when I search "wikisimpsons"
[20:46] Clg Same
[20:47] Solar_Dragon I spammed Simpsons Wikia so much, they blocked anonymous editing!
[20:47] AleWi wikisimpsons is place 7th to me
[20:47] Clg How do you know pt wants to move?
[20:48] Cook879 <Solar_Dragon>: Got a message via Twitter
[20:48] AleWi He said it, via Twitter
[20:48] Clg Ok
[20:48] Solar_Dragon ...

[20:48] Solar_Dragon Effluvium has defected it looks like
[20:49] cjc linkkkkk
[20:49] Solar_Dragon http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/Special:RecentChanges
[20:50] Solar_Dragon Then again, he could be ruining the wiki more
[20:51] Phinbart oooh! Old infoboxes!
[20:51] cjc hmm...seems both ways
[20:51] cjc removed article comments
[20:51] AleWi We are bigger than Wikia.
[20:51] cjc added new editor
[20:51] Phinbart Next topic? Forecasts. Forecasts? What the...?
[20:52] cjc changing layout
[20:52] Clg Why is the Wikisimpsons page higher than main one?

[20:53] AleWi Next subject?
[20:53] Solar_Dragon THE LOOK IS NOT FUCKING UNIQUE! IT IS OUR LOOK! THEY STOLE IT!!!
[20:54] Solar_Dragon </random outburst>
[20:54] cjc Technicly, I stole it, then they just kept it when we moved
[20:55] Cook879 that would be why he removed it if he is working there.

[20:56] Solar_Dragon What does it mean by forecasts?
[20:56] Phinbart No idea.
[20:57] cjc see, I have no clue what eff is doing - he is half improving, half ruining
[20:57] Solar_Dragon
[20:57] Phinbart Doh5678 put "forecasts"
[20:58] Solar_Dragon Clg, what do you mean by forecasts?
[20:58] Clg The process of making statements about events whose actual outcomes (typically) have not yet been observed
[20:58] cjc so, predicting the future?
[20:58] Solar_Dragon forecasts about what?
[20:58] Solar_Dragon OK, by the end of the year, we would have OVER 9000!!! articleas

[21:01] Clg What should the domain end with?
[21:01] Cook879 so us, infosphere - what else?
[21:01] Solar_Dragon That's it until we've discussed this in more detail
[21:01] Solar_Dragon ketchup, could you set up the domain as .net and set up a basic forum on it or something?
[21:02] ketchup yeah, but is .net the way we want to go?
[21:02] Clg Lets vote.
[21:02] Clg All in favour

[21:03] cjc Sure
[21:03] AleWi yes

[21:03] ketchup so it's aswanetwork.net?
[21:04] Solar_Dragon That seems fine
[21:04] Clg Why net aswa.net?
[21:04] ketchup because that's already taken
[21:04] ketchup me and will_k discussed this
[21:04] Solar_Dragon http://aswa.net/
[21:04] ketchup the only available top level domain for aswa is aswa.mobi
[21:05] ketchup and that costs more
[21:05] Clg The domain is fine
[21:05] Solar_Dragon Yeah
[21:05] ketchup is there anybody against aswanetwork.net
[21:06] Solar_Dragon That's a no
[21:07] Phinbart I got bored earlier so I made a Fish Hooks blog: http://fishhookswiki.blogspot.com/
[21:07] Phinbart *Fish Hooks Wiki blog
[21:07] Solar_Dragon Cool
[21:08] Cook879 anyway i was going to say about the future of simpsonary and the news wiki. I think all the content could easily be merged with the main wiki
[21:09] Solar_Dragon I guess so
[21:09] Solar_Dragon Just new namespaces
[21:09] Solar_Dragon Dictionary: and News:
[21:09] Cook879 yeah
[21:10] Clg Have we exhausted the list?
[21:10] Solar_Dragon Yep
[21:10] Solar_Dragon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Animated_sitcoms
[21:10] Solar_Dragon Possible wikis to add to the alliance
[21:11] Cook879 a list of wikis would be more helpful
[21:11] Solar_Dragon
[21:11] Solar_Dragon Don't have any of those
[21:11] Solar_Dragon I might try and set something up so I can take on some possible wikis
[21:12] Clg So, American Dad, Family Guy then?
[21:12] AleWi You can only found a few fansites on Wikipedia.
[21:12] ketchup so far the only wikis i've found that aren't wikia are simpsonswiki and the infosphere
[21:12] ketchup i saw somebody on infosphere talkingabout makign an american dad wiki on shoutwiki
[21:13] Solar_Dragon There's already one
[21:13] Solar_Dragon Same for Family Guy and South Park
[21:13] ketchup oh. i was not aware of that
[21:14] Phinbart Wow, there's a lot of animated sitcoms.
[21:14] Solar_Dragon If we can persuade the Wikia wikis to move to ShoutWiki or I start paying for others to become independent, that would be good
[21:14] AleWi Fox shows four every Sunday
[21:14] Solar_Dragon Only problem is, I am low on money so that may not be possible
[21:16] ketchup alright. there was a problem with registering the domain. i have to call the number to work out the problem. but i don't have time right now. i'll do my best to have aswanetwork.net online by midnight my time which is 7.5 hours
[21:17] Solar_Dragon OK, thanks ketchup
[21:17] AleWi You not really hurry.
[21:17] ketchup no problem.
[21:17] =-= ketchup is now known as ketchup|away
[21:17] Clg Why by midnight
[21:18] Cook879 realises he put the wrong name in the edit summary
[21:18] cjc because its just a good time to go by
[21:19] Solar_Dragon Urm... "Simpsons Wiki has a problem"
[21:19] Cook879
[21:19] Cook879 i was trying to save a page
[21:20] AleWi The website its slow for me.
