Don't see any issues. Infrequent-ish list update out of mainspace. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 20:46, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Couldn't get the code to work this morning due to: "UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 1796-1800: ordinal not in range(128)" so I will be asking a few people I know today about this. Also, the list it's producing is missing a whole bunch of people, I just realized when it pulls from the DB, it grabs only users that match that name, so they code have IPBE + more and be missed. I will be fixing that too. -- DQ  (t)   (e)  13:29, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Recoded using the API, almost done, already on one test edit. Few more minor fixes. -- DQ  (t)   (e)  23:02, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 * D Any progress? Anomie⚔ 03:27, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
 * As you can see from the history yes. The mainpage is done, it's just a small error in the API that is messing up the raw page. I should be able to have this done soon, just a bit busy. Maybe this weekend? -- DQ  (t)   (e)  13:05, 24 February 2011 (UTC)


 * ✅ All fixed up with the last edit as shown. Ready to transclude to Wikipedia page on approval. -- DQ  (t)   (e)  19:19, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
