| Bashing-om | WIKI585 now up for review - Is this what we want to present to the world ? | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| guiverc | Bashing-om, did you highlight "Began" in gdoc; it was the only thing that stood out for me in readthru; comment made in gdoc | 02:03 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Looking at Gdoc. | 02:04 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: The sentence is a bit dangling .. but I accept that it reads OK. We could flesh the sentence out. | 02:07 |
| guiverc | My english isn't good enough to worry about it, it'll be understood; but in wiki-read-thru I try and be critical, and that struck me as possibly-incorrect.. | 02:08 |
| guiverc | It reads okay to you - good enough; we can act if we have another also see a problem, or do nothing if .. | 02:09 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: I am sure I looked and considered, And yeah let's see what others have to say :) - I can and do get burned out and just not able to force the thinking process :P | 02:13 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: This issue for me has been especially stressfull - be good for a careful proofreading as I am not confident that I have made no errors. | 02:19 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, I am going to take a look but I am still under the weather | 02:31 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: I have done the best I can, is up to yall to make it better :) | 02:32 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, your efforts are so very much appreciated!:) | 02:32 |
| Bashing-om | (or the More accurate) | 02:32 |
| guiverc | very much apprecaited Bashing-om | 02:33 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Wild_Man I be that junior - gofer - part of this "team", Always open to how things can be better. | 02:34 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, I posted and asked for admin input about this thread https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2421578 that is in the UWN because it involves a troll, I personally think we should replace it, I will wait for admin input, it will not be hard to expand the search parameter to include like the top 8 threads so we will have more to choose from right? he trolled several threads in the last week | 02:58 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: Glad you caught it - not that big of a deal to swap out that "2421578" link. | 03:02 |
| -SwissBot:#ubuntu-news- ::Planet:: Serge Hallyn: My phone’s not dumb, it just looks it. @ https://s3hh.wordpress.com/2019/07/01/my-phones-not-dumb-it-just-looks-it/ | 03:03 | |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, I didn't think so I probably should have just asked for it to be done but I decided best to ask for admin input, hopefully someone will reply in time if not I think I will give the OKay to switch it out anyway | 03:03 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: We have time - will swap the item out on your do-it command :P | 03:05 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, okay, thanks | 03:05 |
| Wild_Man | I think it is not putting our best foot forward in terms of the forum, that thread probably would not have made the top 5 if not for the troll and dragging it off topic | 03:06 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: by the way .. the Uforum script pulls in lots .. we just pick the 1st 5 hits. | 03:06 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, I thought you were doing a manual search each week? | 03:06 |
| Bashing-om | Then best no thought at all --- just replace the troll link ! | 03:07 |
| Wild_Man | Let's give it until tomorrow and give the admins a chance to chime in | 03:08 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: Nope .. directions for the forum script is on the WIKI setup page( thanks krytarik). | 03:08 |
| Wild_Man | I am not myself right now running a fever and under the weather, or I probably would have just made the call myself | 03:08 |
| Wild_Man | I now I asked about it a few times but I never received a positive answer about that he could create one so I thought he never did, I will have to look at it when I feel better | 03:10 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: I am happy to wait for a do-it .. having the Admins consider it gives UWN a bit nore exposure :P | 03:10 |
| Bashing-om | nore/more* | 03:10 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, I lot of things I make the call on and I can probably do it in this case no on but us would even know but they are the ones that make policy or the forum and we usually just report the first 5 threads, but I do try to look and make sure they are not bad | 03:12 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: Do not support the efforts of a troll. I replace that item with no qualms at all :) | 03:17 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, that is my thought as well, he is now trolling the mint forum | 03:17 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, here should to be for? The last piece of code has been merged to allow testing extensions in a downstream shell. | 03:20 |
| Wild_Man | I guess it can be either | 03:21 |
| Wild_Man | just sounded strange | 03:21 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, nope you are correct | 03:21 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: replacing with "Breaking a TCP connection" . as a matter of principal :D | 03:24 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, I think this "Here is detailed the installation of steam, " That is incorrect I believe, did you mean he or here is detailed installation of steam? | 03:26 |
| Wild_Man | He as in he detailed the installation of steam? | 03:26 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: "Here" is what I meant .. As a pointer to the article. // and replaced the questionable item in the list now. | 03:28 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, that is what I thought, thanks | 03:29 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, this is how it is written "Here is detailed the installation of steam" so really just need to drop "the" from the sentence correct? | 03:31 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: I think not . as "the installation" is specific. Does it not direct the reader's attention to the article ? | 03:34 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: guiverc If there is a better alternative, I be glad to make it so :D | 03:35 |
| Wild_Man | Sounds strange to me or it could read " Here is the detailed installation of steam but I believe the needs to be before detailed or dropped, or maybe it is me being a redneck | 03:36 |
| guiverc | which are you discussing? | 03:36 |
| Wild_Man | guiverc, The Planet | 03:37 |
| Wild_Man | I am running Steam/Wine on Ubuntu 19.10 (no 32-bit on the host) | 03:37 |
| guiverc | it's slightly awkward to me, but it's just not language that I'd use personally. I wasn't worried about it. | 03:38 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: We could make it as ' here is detailed instructions to install ' - but we generally in practice want to avoid "how-to" articles. | 03:40 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, that is true, but I do think in this case user need to know there is options available | 03:43 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, it is okay if it works for you | 03:43 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: My best efforts can always be improved on. You want it as "Here are provided instructions to install" - I can make it. | 03:45 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, to down play it from being a tutorial may something like "Here is one option for running steam/wine in a 64bit environment"? | 03:47 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, everything else looks good, I will let you know about the forum thread and replacing it tomorrow | 03:52 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: The author was very specific for Steam .. not an option . | 03:52 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: I have already replaced the subject thread. | 03:53 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, Okay, thanks | 03:55 |
| Wild_Man | We can leave the rest as is | 03:55 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: How about I change to "Simos details the installation of steam" - That work out for us ? | 03:58 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, on 64bit? | 03:59 |
| Bashing-om | Need to capitalize steam anyway - so is but a minor edit anuway :P | 03:59 |
| Bashing-om | sure we can do it also as 64 bit. | 04:00 |

| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, it works for me | 04:05 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: Done .. see that you like it now :P | 04:06 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, all good | 04:09 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: guiverc:: In light of the milestone that is 32-bit support, have I done it justice in this issue ? | 04:11 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, yes, good job | 04:12 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: I have lost sleep over this - I sleep the better now this night :D | 04:13 |
| Wild_Man | get some rest tonight | 04:14 |
| krytarik | Wild_Man: To clarify, the gathering of top threads on the forums is indeed done manually still, with just a prepared link to initiate a forums search. But yeah, it's not limiting the amount of results. And good job spotting this instance of course! | 11:28 |

| Wild_Man | krytarik, did someone say we really do not need a 2nd when publishing uwn to the fridge? | 20:57 |
| Bashing-om | Wild_Man: I know of no reason that we can not go for the Fridge. Ouch - Wife does not need further complications ! | 20:57 |

| Wild_Man | Thanks krytarik that is what I thought, I was going to get to Danny Kilner's request after I finished publishing so good deal | 21:01 |
| krytarik | It was a @gmail.com vs @googlemail.com thing btw. | 21:02 |
