 * It was once a real article. I'll revert. Pdefer 03:31, 2004 Oct 31 (UTC)


 * Keep the revert -- Chris 73 Talk 03:41, Oct 31, 2004 (UTC)


 * Who is Robbot? What happened to the history?


 * hat's weird. Robbot was the last person to post before a whole bunch of vandals writing nonsense. I reverted, but I don't know where the history went. There was some sort of server bug the first time I reverted, so I had to do it again. I don't know if that helps. Pdefer 04:20, 2004 Oct 31 (UTC)
 * Comment: Jamesday has been rearranging the history. For a while, 40GB worth was deleted.  Most, if not all of it should be back by now. - Vague Rant 08:36, Oct 31, 2004 (UTC)
 * Not the best dictdef around, but ok, I suppose. I hope the Wiktionary folks also get the verb form of "gig," which is to catch frogs or crawdads.  Therefore also "gig" as a small carriage and "gig" as fishing tackle.  (I.e. "gig" came from "rig" probably in its nominal form and from "get" in the verb form.)  I didn't know that Jamesday was a history monk though. Geogre 15:43, 31 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Looks like a disambiguation candidate to me, or if not, we can redirect to concert or something similar. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 00:51, Nov 1, 2004 (UTC)
 * I'd agree; a disambiguation page to concert, gigabyte, &c. would seem to be a good use for the page. Shimgray 02:32, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * I've turned it into a disambig page, and added some data about other senses. Keep.  Smerdis of Tlön 20:52, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)
