[20:01:24]	AleWi	Capitlization of a, am, an, and, are, as, at, be, by, for, if, in, is, it, of, on, or, so, the, to and with.
[20:01:42]	AleWi	Solar_Dragon? Randomno? supergeeky1?
[20:01:55]	Solar_Dragon	>_>
[20:02:16]	AleWi	Okey, vote, should we have it or not
[20:02:19]	Solar_Dragon	How many times have I said
[20:02:27]	Solar_Dragon	FOLLOW PROPER TITLE NAMING PROCEDURES!
[20:02:52]	AleWi	Okey, next topic
[20:02:59]	AleWi	Dictionary wiki. Points to discuss: Easier to find; half of our viewers probably don't know we have a dictionary.
[20:03:00]	AleWi	A name like "Simptionary" or something, otherwise we'd have to call it "the dictionary namespace".
[20:03:02]	AleWi	Easier to add project page, instead of putting "Wikisimpsons:Dictionary:Project page" or "Dictionary:Project:Project page".
[20:03:29]	Solar_Dragon	No Dictionary wiki
[20:03:30]	AleWi	That only things we can so user find it is not have a namepages for it
[20:03:32]	supergeeky1	You're seriously going through with the meeting today?
[20:03:45]	Solar_Dragon	AleWi seems to want to
[20:04:09]	supergeeky1	You guys delayed it last time because there "wasn't enough people," so you rescheduled it on a day when there would be even less people.
[20:04:19]	AleWi	We have Simpsonairy
[20:04:20]	Solar_Dragon	I'm just deleting all the framegrabs
[20:04:39]	Solar_Dragon	We don't need a dictionary wiki, it will be pointless
[20:04:59]	AleWi	Easier to add project page, instead of putting "Wikisimpsons:Dictionary:Project page" or "Dictionary:Project:Project page".???
[20:05:20]	AleWi	Okey, next topic
[20:05:22]	AleWi	File:No character image.png
[20:05:30]	AleWi	What about that?
[20:06:00]	AleWi	It's a very good picture
[20:06:01]	Solar_Dragon	Probably been deleted now and not needed anyway
[20:06:14]	AleWi	Vote? Keep or delete
[20:06:16]	AleWi	Keep
[20:06:24]	supergeeky1	Delete.
[20:06:32]	AleWi	two delete one keep
[20:06:34]	supergeeky1	It's horribly aliased.
[20:06:34]	AleWi	delete
[20:06:39]	AleWi	German wiki Ways to keep it more active
[20:06:41]	AleWi	Improvements
[20:06:51]	Solar_Dragon	Get some German people to edit it
[20:06:59]	supergeeky1	^
[20:07:15]	AleWi	Swedish wiki is more popular for every day
[20:07:22]	supergeeky1	My German is limited, so I can't be of much help there.
[20:07:27]	AleWi	but that is for we have article there
[20:08:05]	AleWi	Blog:Changing bullets in appearances to numbers
[20:08:09]	AleWi	is next topic
[20:08:17]	Solar_Dragon	What?
[20:08:25]	AleWi	http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/Blog:Changing_bullets_in_appearances_to_numbers
[20:08:43]	supergeeky1	I oppose. The numbers would be ugly.
[20:08:52]	Solar_Dragon	^
[20:09:22]	supergeeky1	If we have to change anything, go with Phinbart's idea and list the number of times the character has appeared separately.
[20:09:29]	supergeeky1	But IMHO, that would be a complete waste of time.
[20:09:37]	AleWi	It's hard to now for many character
[20:09:55]	AleWi	Lisa, Homer. Marge has been in every episode
[20:10:30]	AleWi	Okey, we don't have it
[20:10:35]	AleWi	next topic then
[20:11:01]	AleWi	Images on infoboxes for comics, title, front page or a frame?
[20:11:02]	Solar_Dragon	This is the best meeting we've ever had. No arguments, nobody being stupid
[20:11:16]	Solar_Dragon	Open a wiki discussion for that
[20:11:23]	AleWi	okey
[20:11:26]	supergeeky1	Title, IMO.
[20:11:26]	AleWi	next topic
[20:11:29]	AleWi	Main pages for comics
[20:11:46]	AleWi	Should we have it?
[20:11:51]	Solar_Dragon	What>
[20:11:52]	Solar_Dragon	?
[20:11:53]	supergeeky1	I don't know what that is.
[20:12:21]	AleWi	Like http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/Main_Page
[20:12:30]	supergeeky1	Like a portal for comics?
[20:12:33]	AleWi	but for comics
[20:12:36]	AleWi	like this - http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/User:AleWi/Comics_Main_Page
[20:12:41]	AleWi	when user click on Comics in sidebar
[20:12:44]	Solar_Dragon	yeah, think that's what he means
[20:12:52]	supergeeky1	No, I don't think we should have that.
[20:13:04]	supergeeky1	Unless you're planning on creating a portal for every sort of media.
[20:13:09]	Solar_Dragon	^
[20:13:44]	AleWi	Comics is very big
[20:13:49]	AleWi	two comics is monthly
[20:13:58]	AleWi	But it's hard to find it today
[20:14:04]	AleWi	here on the wiki
[20:14:16]	supergeeky1	Honestly, it's not a bad idea to create a series of portals, but I'd suggest opening a wiki discussion about it to see how interested the users would be in participating in the creation of them.
[20:14:23]	Solar_Dragon	^
[20:14:32]	Solar_Dragon	Our comic articles are poor though
[20:14:39]	AleWi	Not all
[20:14:46]	AleWi	Okey we open a discuess
[20:14:53]	AleWi	next topic
[20:14:54]	AleWi	Article milestones page
[20:15:03]	Solar_Dragon	And I don't really have the time to go improving them all with everything I have on
[20:15:10]	Solar_Dragon	Pointless idea is pointless
[20:15:16]	Solar_Dragon	Unnecessary
[20:15:20]	AleWi	It's hard to do a pages like that
[20:15:24]	Solar_Dragon	Reason I deleted it in the first place
[20:15:29]	Solar_Dragon	And what you said too AleWi
[20:15:32]	supergeeky1	I take it this means creating a page to list certain milestones, like the 1,000th page, 10,000th page, etc.?
[20:15:40]	Solar_Dragon	Yeah
[20:15:48]	AleWi	Yes, but also fro 1,000, 5,000
[20:15:53]	AleWi	next topic
[20:15:53]	supergeeky1	Yeah, unnecessary.
[20:15:54]	AleWi	Two-time characters category
[20:15:59]	Solar_Dragon	No
[20:16:02]	AleWi	Think is Unnecessary
[20:16:10]	AleWi	One time is okey
[20:16:11]	Solar_Dragon	If a character appears more than once, they're recurring
[20:16:18]	supergeeky1	Per Solar.
