- I found this lovely edit whilst doing RC . Tracking the IP shows that it's from the Indiana Department of Education Exceptional Learners room. Pretty hilarious. :) Isabel 15:12, 28 August 2007 (PDT)
- Hey folks, I took a stab at writing the history of High Tech in Portland. Please don't laugh too hard at what I wrote, but I'd like some constructive criticism. -- Llywrch 13:21, 28 August 2007 (PDT)
- Milos Rancic announced the creation of another resource to discuss Wikis, the Wiki World. This wiki site is itself intended to support a mailing list, still in the planning stages. -- Llywrch 09:07, 28 August 2007 (PDT)

Planning should begin on the AboutUs Upcoming Plan of Record for the period 1-15 September next week. John

- Wikis seem to be catching on in some major places. Just this week IMDB released their collaborative editing tool called FAQ for each movie they list. Also, HBO's Weeds now has a wiki, appropriately named WeedsWiki. Isabel 17:57, 21 August 2007 (PDT)
- Please check out the Consensus Poll on Distributed Planning Game. Obed Suhail
- List anonymous wikipedia edits from interesting organizations: This fun tool has a list of IPs for "interesting organizations" and can then scan a Wikipedia article for those organizations. Watch as Walmart spins its low wages or Exxon rewrites the aftermath of its oil spill. Score one for the good guys. Blake Hinckley

- The new "Flag" to set pages to "PossibleAdultContent" is really great; as a note, in the next week or two we are planning to run a process to automatically flag many such pages and really bring the feature into full effect. - Ray | talk
- Some people may think that the red flag means that the page is already flagged in some way (because it is red). We might want to change the color so that "Flag" is green and "PossibleAdultContent" is red, thoughts? - Ray | talk

- Obviously, we've turned on the new logo today. We're also about to implement the beginning of the AdultContentPolicy within the next hour or so. We're preparing a more thorough post on these for both the home page and the weblog [1] with more details, but I just wanted to put something up here in the meantime. BTW: If you're having problems with the new logo "cutting off" on some browsers, just refresh the browser's cache. That should clear it up. -- TakKendrick

- WikiWear.org now has a few pictures! ~~ MarkDilley
- Chuck Smith (the WikiCreole guy), has put together a neat page with various web based wiki film clips. Some trivia: Chuck is also the founder of the Esperanto Wikipedia. He has just explained to me that Esperanto is a "planned international" language created in 1887 with the goal of worldwide understanding and peace. It is not based in any particular geographic location, but currently has about a million speakers in over 100 countries! - Ray | talk
