496:. Of course, that does need to be a time when you're actually available.:) The lower the traffic, the less disrupton there is because the database servers will have more unused disk seeks available to process the updates. I tend not to notice updates affecting a few hundred articles, so those you can probably do whenever is convenient for you at any rate which works for you (well, with a few seconds between them). Ideally not at the busiest 6 hours or so though. Once it gets to 1,000 or more it's good to wait a few minutes between each update to keep the potential frustration level for other people down. At 5,000 or more it's very useful to take care to leave gaps and do it off peak. Don't be unduly concerned about disruption - short term sacrifices for ongoing improvement are worth doing even if they do inconvenience people while they are happening. 233:. Even though they have been discussed, I feel that we really need to confirm everything. For that, we should discuss each issue with its own sections, and raise a list of issues that we need to nail down before really continuing on. The English Knowledge (XXG) is nearly at 500k articles. Either the MediaWiki software needs to handle stubs such that they can be found with a simple union of categories, or the sorting is done manually by Wikipedians. Personally, I think the latter is less taxing on the server load, especially when we use subst:, which I think would help the Knowledge (XXG) out, performance wise. Please make your comments at 172:...I just went through a long list of stubs and anything that was a geographical location (amongst many other things) was moved to their general category. If you're familiar with all of the geographical stubs, you don't have to go through the google search, I've just given you a bunch that you can properly sort once and for all. Having every one going through the generic stubs list and/or the google search and just picking articles that suit them isn't any faster for the project... Having that said, since you've seemed to have worked with a lot of geo stubs, tell me what templates I'm most likely to encounter and I'll be sure to specify it. 1427: 2484: 1306: 1510:.

yesterday I changed the article about NP-easy problems. In particular, I changed the example of an NP-easy problem from sorting to co-3-SAT. Sorting can be done in polynomial time, thus it is of course an example for an NP-easy problem, but it is in no sense a helpful example since the NP-oracle is

True, and sorry if I sounded annoyed. You are doing good work with the stub sorting. Having said that, there are people going through the list looking for geography stubs, which is why there are very few of them in certain parts of the alphabet in the big stub list. The ones you'd be most likely to

Hi, just to let you know I just undid your revert on the nuclear fusion article. I almost reverted it myself when I saw the change - anon edit to a number like that does set the alarm bells ringing! But in fact the edit looks to be accurate - certainly the numbers didn't add up before, and either

Just found your note about the Falkland stubs (putting them in UK-geo-stub) - problem with getting two new messages, you only notice the last one! As you probably know, I've added a britOT-geo-stub since them, since the Faalklands and similar places were just about all that was left uncategorised.

137:

If that is the case, we have to decide a guideline. Not to interrupt stub sorting in any manner, but I believe that the guidelines need to be set down before we continue. Let us face it, the English Knowledge (XXG) is nearly at 500k articles. Without clear guidelines for our sorting project, we

Hi Jag123, No offense intended, but it's going to slow down the stub sorting if I have to go and correct a lot of the stubs you do! Please remember that geo-stubs are now largely divided by country. I'm not expecting anyone to learn all the new templates, but a few of the common ones, like
