Wikipedia talk:Motto of the day/Archive 2

message: === Question about the Motto scheduled for 8/20 ===
It currently reads "Made in Jimmy ®". Is the point that Wikipedia is somehow created inside Jimbo's body? That somehow implies to me that Jimbo Wales is unique amongst male humans by having a uteris. How about something along the lines of "Made under Jimmy's oversight ®"? -- llywrch 23:17, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Why has the motto been a redlink for the past three days? What are the Overseers doing?! --The Raven's Apprentice (Talk|Contribs) 05:17, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm sure they have a good reason. They wouldn't just forget the whole thing. May the Edit be with you, always. T-borg (drop me a line) 15:28, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Though I was just wondering, one can't just click on said redlink and write his/her own motto, in place of the "official" Motto of the day, can one? Just curios, other people might be tempted, don't you think? May the Edit be with you, always. T-borg (drop me a line) 15:01, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  What's happenning?? 

message: I will try to keep a cool head about this but this is my opinion. This is flat out ridiculous how the motto is always redlinked. Does anybody realize how many people use the MOTD and love it dearly and find it enjoyable. But latly the mottos have been redlinked. I have come across so many userpages that used to have the MOTD but don't anymore because it has been redlinked all the time. Does anybody feel the same way as I do? I am saying this only because I would hate to see such a fun project go down in "red" flames.--ॐ Seadog ॐ 00:33, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I changed my motto to my talk page because I didn't want red links on my userpage. It's mostly fixed, being red every now and again at ~midnight(UTC). | AndonicO Talk | Sign Here 19:54, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: They've changed it around a few times. A while ago, it said, "This is the temporary motto of the day. Hooray!" Now, it just shows up blank. --Gray Porpoisecetaceans have large brains 21:30, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps it would be best to assign another group the task of scheduling mottos, but still have the overseer approve and reject mottos. Tennis DyNamiTe (sign in) 22:00, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Another option would be to let the overseers retain that privilege, but allow anyone to schedule the current day's motto if it does not exist. --Gray PorpoiseYour wish is my command! 22:10, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been adding mottos now and again, either when there's been a redlink or I've seen one coming up in the near future. We need another recruitment drive... I'll stick something in the Community Bulletin Board notices. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 11:15, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Hey, did you notice that the Christmas Day link in the December 25th motto shows that it should not go there? Wait, let me rephrase: The motto on the 25th says "the last day of Christmas" when the 25th is the FIRST day of Christmas? —ScouterSig 18:48, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oops... I really should know better. It was me that thought of that motto and put it there (replacing vandalism before), it's been corrected now. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 11:13, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
