:Right! Same here. Maybe because i'm using a +8 hours offset? --[[user:Luis Oliveira|Luis Oliveira]]

::Yes, there's a bug in the time zone handling code. I am on Central time (Server time + 2h) which I set in my user preferences and I noticed that the "List only new changes" link returns something only after I wait for 2 hours, and then only those changes that have occuredoccurred two hours since I last accessed RecentChanges.

:WAV is not optimal, and MP3 has patent problems. Use [[Ogg]] [[Vorbis]] instead. --[[user:Damian Yerrick|Damian Yerrick]]

2002-06-21: A file with an ampersand in its name cannot be deleted. The file is كاس العالم 01.jpg (كاسكاس العالمالعالم 01.jpg) and several sysops have tried to delete it to no avail. -[[user:PierreAbbat|phma]]

2002-06-23: Some upload log entries are missing. cutelayout.bmp was never uploaded, but it was deleted; and sxvspork.zip was uploaded and never deleted, but it isn't there. -[[user:PierreAbbat|phma]]

Line 110 ⟶ 112:

[end quoted output] Current time is 9:00 p.m., EDT, on 29 April 2002 (I think that's 6 p.m. server time, but I'm not sure.) [[user:Vicki Rosenzweig|Vicki Rosenzweig]]

:Hmm.... the line numbers are in the function that checks your login cookie against the user database, which clearly has failed (error messages, and an IP address shown instead of your login name), though that should be completely independantindependent of the special page, which gets loaded after the login check. The lack of results in the article list also seems to imply that the database isn't returning results... I can access [[special:NewPages]] now, both logged in and not, and everything seems fine; my first guess is a temporary problem connecting to the database server (load-related?) -- try it again, if it's still showing the above symptoms (and is it only that page, or others as well?) my second guess would be some glitch in your login cookie; the system doesn't currently gracefully handle problems in that department. Try clearing the cookie in your browser settings and logging in again. [[user:Brion VIBBER|Brion VIBBER]], Tuesday, April 30, 2002

== My watchlist ==

I just clicked on the "my Watchlist" link, and went to the right place (a good thing), but all of the watchlist changes are now listed under 2/25/02, 15:51 (not a good thing, since yesterday they were sorted by day and time!). Thought you might want to know! [[User:JHK|JHK]]

:This isn't a bug in "my watchlist". The problem is that the timestamp on every article got changed (which also added a few thousand pages to Recent Changes). --[[user:Zundark|Zundark]], 2002 Feb 26

Line 225 ⟶ 227:

I've been watching [[User Talk:AxelBoldt]] since [[June 11]] now, waiting for him to reply to something that I wrote there.

Even though my watchlist reports every petty change to [[User:AxelBoldt]], it doesn't notice any of the 4 changes that occuredoccurred to the talk page since then, so that I failed to realise until now that he answered me the very same day.
