[16:14:01] test [16:14:32] bot seems broken. https://wm-bot.wmcloud.org/browser/index.php?start=11%2F30%2F2024&end=11%2F30%2F2024&display=%23wm-bot [16:14:57] oh maybe that's the wrong channel doh [16:15:22] nvm facepalm [16:18:46] FYI your 1 forwarded message generated thirty (30!) messages on IRC. https://wm-bot.wmcloud.org/browser/index.php?start=11%2F30%2F2024&end=11%2F30%2F2024&display=%23wikimedia-hackathon (one of the reasons we say to use a pastebin) (re @ckmwiki: Reminder: Upcoming Deadlines – Don’t Miss Out! [16:18:46] Hello Wikimedia Community, [16:18:48] Hope you are having a good weekend. This is a frie...) [16:24:38] Will you teach me more about this? So that I don't repeat this mistake ( if it caused any) . (re @jeremy_b: FYI your 1 forwarded message generated thirty (30!) messages on IRC. https://wm-bot.wmcloud.org/browser/index.php?start=11%2F30%...) [16:25:48] just click my link. each new line is a new line in IRC (even if blank) plus some are too long and wrap so become multiple lines. [16:28:26] Okay. [16:28:27] What is the best practice to avoid this? Not having blank space in the text? (re @jeremy_b: just click my link. each new line is a new line in IRC (even if blank) plus some are too long and wrap so become multiple lines.) [16:30:26] the best practice is to not cross post at all. this is why we have a separate announcement group. if you absolutely must you can do one or three sentences summary, the rest can be a link to somewhere else to read the announcement. e.g. you could post on Meta. (re @ckmwiki: Okay. [16:30:27] What is the best practice to avoid this? Not having blank space in the text?) [16:31:06] Oh wow. Okay done. Thank you so much. 🍀 (re @jeremy_b: the best practice is to not cross post at all. this is why we have a separate announcement group. if you absolutely must you can...) [17:55:34] I know that this is a common rule, but in my opinion it is dated, ineffective, inefficient and just not handy. (re @jeremy_b: the best practice is to not cross post at all. this is why we have a separate announcement group. if you absolutely must you can...) [17:56:04] If posting on meta or an announce mailinglist worked, people would be doing it there already. [17:56:04] Maybe it is time we accept that and move on without adhering to rules that were tailored to Internet from before 2010.
