Latest revision as of 20:17, 25 November 2023

There are strange things done, when there is no sun, by meteorologists.
They use their PCs, while their fingers freeze, making Misplaced Pages lists.
In the Northern night, where the snow lies white, as they huddle 'round their 'scopes,
As their lips turn blue, that hardy crew, often speaks of their childhood hopes,
Not to monitor storms, in some place warm, like Bermuda or the Carribee,
But to freeze one's butt, up in Nunavut, just like old Sam McGee.

On editing Misplaced Pages:

Answerable to everyone; responsible to all; publicity dissected brain cells splattered on the walls of encyclopedic knowledge. May be barbaric but it's fun.
— Ian Anderson, Quizz Kid from Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll: Too Young to Die!

The real Cambridge Bay Weather

Discovered humour

That's nice, but what about the rest of us?
A quick guide to notability
One of the most common errors seen in notices in Nunavut is the mistake made over the use of "residents" and "residence".
With images it turns out that a long lingering death is very important.
Just in case you were not sure what part of the world the Yukon was in.
Due to the traffic problem in the Arctic it is very important to use the car park.
Well I've never been accused of suppressing an opposing viewpoint from behind the wall of academic objectivity. before.
Feel the Inukness, there is no explaining this.
Qanurli? What Now? spoofs the Old Spice ads.
Canadian use of unusual modes of transportation. Read both edit summaries.
An article that was transferred over to the German language Misplaced Pages was put up for deletion and a bot left me a message. I wasn't to sure what it said so I stuck it into Google Translate. According to Google they have an "argument-oriented discussion" that consists of "seven days of fighting talk." Life is tough over there.
Conflict of interest is not a good thing but this is funny. A user registers an account with one purpose in mind, to edit an article about an airline in Whitehorse, Yukon. An IP, that locates to Whitehorse, objects. However, the registered user has their own feelings about this.
So is that all I am worth?
So IP makes a protection request but forgets to sign. Cyberbot I arrives to point out that the request does not follow the correct format (scroll down to see the big error message that the lack of signature causes). A few minutes later the bot returns to tell itself that the message it left can't be parsed.
Ms Sarah Welch makes a request for page protection which is done by Ymblanter. I don't notice this and do this. I then see the conflict and restore the original protection and mention this at the RFPP. Next move and here.
Just call me Mario.
Ponyo protects Azealia Banks. Dlohcierekim notes this at Misplaced Pages:Requests for page protection but in doing so makes Ponyo a period of time.
