Anti-media?

[edit]

Why include good articles while excluding featured pictures and featured sounds? DurovaCharge! 22:12, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Those were just suggestions, but I've added yours to the list as well. - Jarry1250 (t, c) 22:16, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Harry Potter signup

[edit]

I think this is a great idea, but is the WP Harry Potter a good candidate?? We have only 4 FA and a dozen GA. Nonetheless, I hope the WP HP can be part of this. --LoЯd ۞pεth 04:51, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If anything, it is an ideal candidate for its low number of members - exactly the sort of news that would not otherwise get any coverage. Feel free to add it. - Jarry1250 (t, c) 08:56, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Featured/Good topics (again...)

[edit]

I made a mistake, sorry. Before I said number of articles in FTs = this category, number of articles in GTs = this category. But in fact, number of articles in FTs = this category + this category - 8, number of articles in GTs = this category + this category - 2. Also number of GTs = this category - 1. Sorry for the confusion on my part! rst20xx (talk) 15:17, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why the minuses? - Jarry1250 (t, c) 17:02, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Within the -8:
  • there is -7 because there are 7 articles in both the Top and High categories, i.e. 7 articles that are the main article of one featured topic and also a member of another. Unfortunately this number might change from time to time, I'll have to keep you posted.
  • There is -1 because the 555 count at Category:High-importance Featured topics articles is 1 too high. This can be seen because the pages of the category purportedly contain 200, 200 and 154 articles. This problem is due to a glitch in the MetaWiki software that occasionally happens to categories with over 200 pages in them. Again, I'll have to keep you posted.

Just trying to understand :) Well, looking at the sheet, I've got the number of featured topics as Top importance. Is that wrong now then? - Jarry1250 (t, c) 18:59, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No that one's right! 86. Sorry, it's a very confusing system and I completely failed to explain it properly before. I realised my mistake last week when the fact that there were now over 300 articles in good topics failed to show up - rst20xx (talk) 19:39, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Maintained?

[edit]

Is this still being maintained? I've seen new notices come up, but there's an apparently unprocessed requested from May 2009... 76.66.203.138 (talk) 06:22, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
