[00:01:32] de translation done :) [00:01:38] \o/ [00:02:02] (could probably use some review, translating is hard and you don’t always notice how awkward your writing sounds while staring at the source version ^^) [00:03:34] now for the harder part, figuring out how I want to vote :D [00:04:40] heh (re @lucaswerkmeister: now for the harder part, figuring out how I want to vote :D) [00:04:49] it won't be easy [00:12:21] (also kind of ironic to launch this vote today…) [00:33:34] what, are people too occupied with something else that they won't feel like voting? [00:35:40] well I hear there is a certain other election going on [00:36:58] ;) [00:37:47] Well here's hoping no one is aggressively trying to suppress the non-Wikilambda vote [00:38:17] hey at least I can vote in this one [01:05:25] I find it strange that "lambda" is considered hard to pronounce and "function" is considered easy [01:05:34] and that "wikicode" is considered "great branding" when that already means something else [01:05:49] yeah, those assessments seem pretty anglocentric to me [01:12:38] just tried searching for each of the names on google. wikicodex gets 218 results, wikifunctions 2570, wikifusion 2690, wikimedia functions 3970, wikilambda 4230 (mostly because that's the current name being used to talk about it) and then wikicode... oh only 1.58 million [01:13:12] between legal & communications feedback, it looks like the name more or less selects itself. [01:14:30] When Wikicode is great branding, because this project uses code. why doesn't stand Wikitext for the encyclopedia? (re @Nikki: and that "wikicode" is considered "great branding" when that already means something else) [01:14:41] When Wikicode is great branding, because this project uses code. why doesn't Wikitext stand for the encyclopedia? (re @Nikki: and that "wikicode" is considered "great branding" when that already means something else) [01:15:07] lol (re @Nikki: just tried searching for each of the names on google. wikicodex gets 218 results, wikifunctions 2570, wikifusion 2690, wikimedia functions 3970, wikilambda 4230 (mostly because that's the current name being used to talk about it) and then wikicode... oh only 1.58 million) [01:21:13] I also find it strange that they think "lambda" could create division between the people who understand it and those who don't, but don't have the same concern about "fusion" even though the relation there to the purpose of the wiki is *far* less clear to me... and I don't even know what lambda functions are [01:23:42] I guess the idea is that there’s no “deeper” meaning behind “fusion”? if you know about lambda calculus then “Wikilambda” suddenly makes a lot more sense – I don’t think that’s the case for “Wikifusion” (unless there’s some “fusion” meaning I’m missing, of course ^^) [01:27:37] I... guess...? but why would it create division? is there some secret thing I don't understand because I only know that lambda functions exist and not what's so special about them? [01:29:14] I would've thought "named after lambda functions" (with links) somewhere would be enough to explain where the name comes from and people aren't going to split into two groups based on their level of understanding of lambda calculus :/ [01:32:12] (and that's also easier to explain than something that has no deeper meaning at all, imo) [01:33:32] "WikiFusion Con" seems like a fun, future event [01:34:32] WikiConFusion 😈 [01:34:48] ;) [09:26:34] Quite an excellent name for a Wikimedia Conference (re @Nikki: WikiConFusion 😈) [09:27:24] Well, we already have mania, why not add confusion. [09:28:21] Not adapted for votes from mobile. (re @wmtelegram_bot: Wiki of functions naming contest Round 2 voting is now live! https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Abstract_Wikipedia/Wiki_of_functions_naming_contest/Names -- It's a soft-launch today, with wider announcements planned for later in the week once more translations are available.) [13:47:35] 😂 (re @Csisc1994: Quite an excellent name for a Wikimedia Conference) [13:49:00] sign me for it (re @Nikki: WikiConFusion 😈)
