− | + | :"it feels good to spread it"? I'm "proud"?, Wow... haha. I named an article something succinct and people continue to use it. It isn't some ego high I get when I see other people use it as you seem to be suggesting, although I find that hilarious. | |
− | + | :The reality is that people will put things in the wiki and they need to use SOME word/phrase/term to refer to the upcoming version of DF, and "The upcoming version of DF" doesn't exactly have the kind of ring to it that people would use. Having them all use the same name for it makes it substantially easier to search for and update then thousands of phrases like "the next version", "post-40d" "the upcoming version", "the yet-to-be-released version". Basically people WILL make references to the next version in this wiki as long as information exists about it, and having them all use the same name (even if it isn't accurate) is certainly more helpful then everyone using whatever name they choose. I'm skeptical there will be another major release version (that we will have in it's own namespace) in 2010 anyways. Basically I disagree with your assessment of the harm I've done, and I disagree with your assessment that I get some kind of pleasure out of people using some random name, but I'm glad you took my joke on the versions talk page so seriously.
