[21:29] <Jim__> Hi
[21:30] <Jim__> First off, if you've had a look at any of my wiki work, could you tell me if I'm doing anything horrendously wrong?
[21:31] <zkriesse> links?
[21:32] <Jim__> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide

[21:35] <zkriesse> hmm

[21:36] <Jim__> Not finished either BTW.
[21:36] <zkriesse> Oh well https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide is a "BIT" long...
[21:36] <Jim__> I think so too.
[21:36] <zkriesse> probably needs to broken into a page or two,
[21:37] <Jim__> Already broken it into 3 pages. Think more is probably appropriate though.
[21:37] <zkriesse> we'll see
[21:38] <zkriesse> continue your work and then we shall talk
[21:38] <zkriesse> so far so good though
[21:38] <Jim__> Excellent. Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated.

[21:39] <zkriesse> I'm an wki admin so i can do a few things
[21:40] <Jim__> Cheers for that. What's the polite way to sign-off? Excuse my IRC infancy. Noticed your admin status. I'm an admin on the linuxtv.org wiki too.
