We've noticed you signing on and off fairly quickly... are you having problems connecting? --Rschen7754 01:32, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * No it is very very windy outside and the power went out then came right back on. I then logged back on and the power went out again. I will try again when the wind is not so strong. Thank you for asking.Detcin (talk) 01:50, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, just wondering. It might be easier to use a dedicated client like Colloquy or MirandaIM (depending on your platform) than the online web client, since the latter tends to get disconnected rather easily. --Rschen7754 02:22, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

ITR map
Quick suggestion: can you add the outline of the state of Indiana to the map? It's just the lines for the highways of the state, and while I know what it is, it isn't that helpful to others not as familiar with the Midwest. You might want to also try to add Lake Michigan and colorize it the shade of blue used for water according to WP:USRD/MTF.  Imzadi 1979  →   19:15, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I added the state outline, but can't find a source for Lake Michigan. Detcin (talk) 17:50, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Hand-coding
Hey all :).

I'm dropping you a note because you've been involved in dealing with feedback from the Article Feedback Tool. To get a better handle on the overall quality of comments now that the tool has become a more established part of the reader experience, we're undertaking a round of hand coding - basically, taking a sample of feedback and marking each piece as inappropriate, helpful, so on - and would like anyone interested in improving the tool to participate :).

You can code as many or as few pieces of feedback as you want: this page should explain how to use the system, and there is a demo here. Once you're comfortable with the task, just drop me an email at and I'll set you up with an account :).

If you'd like to chat with us about the research, or want live tutoring on the software, there will be an office hours session on Monday 17 December at 23:00 UTC in. Hope to see some of you there! Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:16, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
