Flowers, no, I haven't PM'd anything to Tom. The suggestion that there should be other admins has been there since we moved to Mediawiki, which allows for the whole having-other-admins thing; it was Tom’s idea in the first place, and grant’s name has, I think, been suggested several times since then. Other than that, we’ve got umpteen pages here of noting every little problem that comes up with the wiki. Tom knows there are recurrent problems that will need the attention of an admin. Having several people sending this stuff off to him as those problems happen, and then having those messages piling up in his PM inbox, isn’t any better than just putting them all here for when he’s got time and headspace to deal with it, imo. All the suggestions in Mario’s post are pretty spot-on.
And I do tend to leave it to grant to email Tom, because I’m sure he gets an awful lot of PMs asking him to do stuff, and I think he’s more likely to take note of an single email from grant than any number of a PMs from some guy he doesn’t really know. I don’t want to just add more noise for him to filter.
(And, ooh, after months of sinister faceless drone-like spambots that attack in waves and have numbers instead of names, the Zero one actually seems quite sweet in its deviousness. It's a delight to delete it.) |
