I don't get it
What's the point? What's the deal with the deadlines? Why's it so complicated??? --Brandon Dilbeck 03:16, 15 November 2006 (UTC) I'm looking at the math, one of the few times I've seen the modulus operator used... Sonic3KMaster(talk) 05:25, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * The point: to use for the WP:ACID process, the deadlines: because the process is defined using deadlines, complicated: the math system at the moment lacks integer division, so I have to round it. → Aza Toth 23:11, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Too many #time calls?
Currently on WP:ACID, the last several noms are broken, apparently due to too many calls being made to the #time ParserFunction. Looking at the code, it seems like the first call can simply be done away with, i.e. replace
 * with
 * with

(since I'm not really sure I see the need for the default value either.) Would this be an OK change, or is there an overriding reason for the use of #time here? Respectfully yours, -- Visviva 15:20, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

OK, I've just gone ahead and made the above change. Feel free to revert if it isn't acceptable. By the way, I must say that is/was an impressively elegant way to enforce consistent date formatting; unfortunately in this case elegance seems to have collided with software constraints.
