[00:00] <m4v> I think the factoid !ar should be removed, or edited so it points to !arabic, the rest of the spanish LoCos don't have their own factoid and spanish users are told to join #ubuntu-es anyway.
[00:01] <rww> !-es
[00:02] <rww> !-pe
[00:02] <rww> !ar
[00:03] <rww> m4v: I think this gets into the whole LoCo channel vs. support channel thing that we never really made consistant.
[00:03] <m4v> last time I checked, !ar was the only factoid for a spanish loco, other locos are mx, ve, cl, pe, co, ni
[00:03] <m4v> ... I'm forgetting some I think
[00:04] <m4v> rww: yeah
[00:04] <m4v> rww: however, I still think !ar is useless in #ubuntu
[00:05] <m4v> people looking for the argentinian loco are most likely to ask in #ubuntu-es
[00:05] <rww> Unless we decide we need a factoid on ar-the-archive-utility, I don't think it's something to care about :\
[00:06] <m4v> mostly I'm pointing it because is a common mistake to call !ar when they actually want !arabic
[00:06] <rww> I disagree with us clashing with the ISO 3166-1 a-2 list and pointing !ar at !arabic.
[00:07] <rww> Some of our helpers repeatedly mix up Switzerland and China too, and I'm not renaming those factoids either :P
[00:09] <m4v> ok, but the iso-thing argument is not enough, we're clashing it already, !es points to the spanish channel instead of the Spanish LoCo.
[00:09] <Flannel> !mx | m4v
[00:09] <rww> imho !es should have information on both.
[00:09] <Flannel> Hmm, I could swear we had a !mx at one point
[00:10] <Flannel> But, we have the same dilemma with br vs pt
[00:10] <m4v> rww: the Spanish LoCo is also dead, but sure.
[00:11] <rww> m4v: then maybe that's why it doesn't point to the Spanish LoCo :P
[00:11] <IdleOne> m4v: you have admin access. olvida lo
[00:11] <IdleOne> :P
[00:11] <m4v> IdleOne: admin access? where, on ubottu?
[00:11] <IdleOne> but I agree if the !art is causing confusion then perhaps it should be forgotten
[00:12] <IdleOne> err !ar
[00:12] <rww> imho, use {!$foo | $foo is an ISO 3166-1 a-2 code} for LoCo channels, and {!$foo | $foo is an ISO 639-1 code} for language support channels. In case of conflicts, include both on one factoid.
[00:12] <IdleOne> m4v: you don't?
[00:13] <m4v> IdleOne: I use it strictly for fix ubottu, not for edit factoids, since that's core ops thing
[00:13] <rww> which scheme has the benefit that it's mostly what we do anyway :P
[00:13] <IdleOne> m4v: I know. I was kidding mostly
[00:14] <rww> it also has the advantage that it would annoy #ubuntu-uk, but... ;)
[00:18] <IdleOne> are you plotting against the queen again?
[05:30] <Unit193> Odd cloak...
[05:33] <Tm_T> standard defocus cloak I'd say
[05:33] <Unit193> Alrighty...
[05:34] <rww> Unit193: sometimes the defocus fairies get bored and change peoples hostmasks.
[05:35] <Unit193> Heh, this is news to me
[05:35] <rww> It's happened a bit more often of late.
[05:35] <Unit193> Just of trolls?
[05:39] <rww> I had a .../defocus.werewolf.rww cloak for a few days, I'll leave you to judge whether I'm a troll :P
[05:39] <Tm_T> rww: you're defocus user...
[05:39]  * Tm_T hides
[05:40] <rww> Tm_T: ;)
[05:41] <Unit193> rww: Oh yeah ;) Get the sound of drums out of your head
[05:41] <rww> is that a reference to what I think that's a reference to?
[05:41] <Unit193> Yes
[05:41] <rww> because if so, you'll rise up about 50 places in the rww scoreboard of IRC users
[05:42] <Unit193> It's been running in my head all week...
[06:29] <popey> rww: speaking of iso, why is -gb invite only? it should forward to -uk shoudln't it
[06:30] <rww> popey: if you're in #targetchannel, +if #targetchannel gives you the "invite only" error message.
[06:30] <popey> ahh
[06:30] <popey> ta
[06:36] <Tm_T> as in, it cannot redirect to a channel you're already in
