ryanakcano?04:13
nixternalI am checking04:13
nixternalimmutable page04:13
ryanakcawell, you write all the documentation, don't you?04:13
nixternalthat is why I leave that stupid wiki alone04:13
ryanakcashucks... must be a canonical only page04:13
nixternalnot all, but some04:13
nixternalI need ice cream04:13
ryanakcayou could just say "To restart your computer, go `rm -fr /`"... that's powerful enough, isn't it?04:14
ryanakcaand a good chunk of people would be gullible enough to believe it04:14
ryanakcaDISCLAIMER: `rm -fr /` does not restart your computer. It irreversibly erases all data under / . You are solely responsible if you execute that command.04:15
=== ryanakca passes nixternal a bucket of ice cream

kwahops09:35
kwahhi, feisty release and upgrade notes09:35
kwahI guess they were initially in the wiki09:36
kwahbut now those pages are just redirects09:36
kwahhow can I get the final wiki page with layout etc, I want to translate it09:37
kwah???09:37
mptkwah, what was the address that redirected?09:40
mptI can find BreezyReleaseNotes, DapperReleaseNotes, EdgyReleaseNotes, but no FeistyReleaseNotes09:42
kwahI actually more interested in Upgrade notes? just a moment09:43
kwahmpt, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyUpgrades?highlight=%28Feisty%2909:44
kwahoops, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyUpgrades :)09:44
mptok09:44
mptWhy do you want to translate that page instead of the one on the official Web site?09:45
mptok, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyUpgrades never contained anything except a redirect to help.ubuntu.com09:45
kwahI just lazy :) I want to have the final layout of the page with all tags and stuff.09:46
kwahand translate it in place09:46
kwahI mean, just take as a source last version of FeistyUpgrades, copy it to say FeistyUpgradesRu09:47
kwahin this way more then one person can do that, incrimentally09:47
=== xipietotec [n=jackfros@194.115.109.66.static.dis.net] has joined #ubuntu-doc
mptAh, so you're wanting to put it on another wiki09:50
mptkwah, here's the last version before people started trying to replace it with a redirect09:50
mpthttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades?action=recall&rev=4309:50
mptIf you want to copy the wiki markup, try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades?action=raw&rev=4309:51
kwahin fact in the same wiki, but translated. Thanks.09:51
mptIn future, when you want to look at previous versions of a page that's been turned into a redirect, add "?action=info" to the end of the URL.09:53
kwahOk. Thanks mpt!09:54
mptyou're welcome :-)09:55
kwahby the way, was there any ideas on organizing translations etc.?09:58
kwah*were09:58
kwahI mean, currently, if I translate some page, I just create a new page like SomePage -> SomePageRU09:59
kwahI was thinking about some automatic mechanism, that will indicate on the original wiki pages, about the available translations10:01
kwahMay be there are tools about which I just do not know? %)10:02

shwaghow do I contact a editor with a question ?09:34
mdkeshwag: if you can find their email address, then email them09:36
shwagthat part is rather obvious.09:36
shwagwhere is their email though ?09:37
mdkein theory, you click on their name and get it from their homepage. None of those editors have homepages though, so you could try searching https://launchpad.net/people09:37
