[edit] Wikiquote

Great work on Simple Wikiquote! However, it looks as if the project will be closed shortly. If you wish to continue contributing, you can, but it won't make any difference at all in the vote, and it may be a waste of time. You're also registered under the name 'Copertwig' on Wikiquote if you're having trouble logging in. I'm also a sysop over there if there's any serious problems.

What I meant by that was that if you're building up a lot of content to try and change people's opinion in the vote, it's not going to make any difference whatsoever. The people that are voting to close Wikiquote think that the entire idea of SEWikiquote is useless, no matter how much content it has. Thanks, Archer7 - talk 09:39, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

I disagree. See your talk page. --Coppertwig 13:37, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

About the Wikiquote page count, I could be wrong here, but it's probably not been reset in a while. The Wikimedia Foundation's server organisation is far too complex for me to fully understand, but basically some functions like the current time, Category:Deletion requests and other strange things only update every so often, so you can either manually 'purge' them and force the server to grab a new copy, or wait. I don't think you can purge the number of articles... Archer7 - talk 23:46, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
