 * « the Wikimedia Foundation formally launched QRpedia » : Beg your pardon? Sorry, but I fail to see how the WMF launched anything, formally or not. They hosted a blogpost that highlights a tool launched 5 months ago by two british volunteers (one of them quite involved in chapter Wikimedia UK) and that since has spawned several implementations in various parts of the world, thanks to the work of people unaffiliated with the WMF. A “launch” actually suggests the WMF developed QRpedia. Jean-Fred (talk) 00:19, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Indeed. I've been bold and changed the page directly. The current plan is that QRpedia will be hosted by Wikimedia UK in the near future - we're working through the details of transferring ownership at the moment. Mike Peel (talk) 15:27, 5 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Shouldn't the word fungi in this page title be spelled as shown, rather than as funghi? — Cheers, Jack Lee  –talk– 08:42, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, I corrected it. Angr (talk) 18:51, 5 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Does anyone else find it ironic that the piece against Tumblr is based on a WP:PRIMARY and a blog post that is likely in Wikipedia terms considered unrelible. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 22:19, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
