Creating Sept 3 for the Current events portal: use “subst:”
Hi, if the task falls to you to start what I call a new day “slug” inside the Current events portal, paste in the following hunk of code:

…noting that || will automatically, permanently plug in the numbers for the then-current day, to be applied to that box alone (another one gets initiated circa 24 hours later). Using those variables without “subst:”, they would update the “slug” to continuously display the current date, which isn’t what’s called for (it’s appropriate for a time/date readout, though). Using “subst:” during the early hours (UTC) of the new Wikipedia day helps prevent numeric typos or errors entering the actual code for the day. The wiki knows what to enter, and I concur.

Micky McAvoy
Hi, could you have a look at this article? I've taken it from a one liner to its present form. Its a pretty interesting topic and I was thinking it would make a good DYK with the hook Did you know that in January 1995 The High Court ordered Micky McAvoy to make a payment of £27,488,299 for his part in the 1983 Brinks mat robbery? I know in the present form the articles not good enough, I still have to fix the refs a bit but I could do with a bit more input if you're interested?

Ottoman prince
Is that really all you could find about his death? I am just being nervous. :-D --BorgQueen (talk) 19:47, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok but I think it is better if you write specifically that he was "the last" somewhere in the article, if we are going to use that blurb. --BorgQueen (talk) 20:15, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I am going to post: "Ertuğrul Osman, the last surviving pretender to the Ottoman throne, dies of renal failure aged 97." Could you insert a sentence to back it up in the article (the "pretender?" part)? --BorgQueen (talk) 22:26, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
