1/ journaling in [[MediaWiki]] is still a bit complicated. Hopefully it'll get easier over time.

1/ Added a few [[Condorcet methods]] to [[:Category:Monotonic electoral systems]], based on seeing them listed as such on English Wikipedia: [[w:Category:Monotonic Condorcet methods]].

1/ Contrary to popular belief, [[ABIF]] isn't dead. Sooner or later, I'll check something in on Github: https://github.com/robla

1/ [https://www.quora.com/What-dont-most-liberals-realize/answer/Rob-Lanphier Careful with the microaggressions there], kids. Especially when speaking with [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80B_yiN2FH8 your elders].

1/ Two things: a) beware the [[w:Ides of March|Ides of March]], and b) I heard an interesting rumor about [[Ranked Robin]] voting. I'll leave it at that, because it's dinnertime here in SF.

1/ Well, 2022-03-03 isn't going to be as cool as 2022-02-02, since English speakers were all celebrating 2/2/22 (and the ambiguity therein). 3/3/22 is ambiguous too, but it's not as fun to talk about. Anyway, I moved several old [[Electowidget]] pages into my user space (i.e. to [[User:RobLa/2009 Burlington, Vermont Mayoral Election - Kiss Voters]], [[User:RobLa/2009 Burlington, Vermont Mayoral Election - Montroll Voters]], [[User:RobLa/2009 Burlington, Vermont Mayoral Election - Smith Voters]] and [[User:RobLa/2009 Burlington, Vermont Mayoral Election - Wright Voters]]). And I've stayed up way too late again, editing electowiki.

Happy Groundhog Day! (well, at least in the [[Pacific timezone]] anyway). Last night, I stayed up way too late working on things related to [[EPOV]] and [[Code of Conduct]] (more the latter than the former). See the "[https://robla.miraheze.org/wiki/Bill_of_Responsibilities Bill of Responsibilities]" I've been working on over at https://robla.miraheze.org/ for the past several years. I started it over here on electowiki, but I realized I kinda liked editing a wiki of my own as I was thinking through how I want the documents there structured. Also, I was on the board of [[Miraheze]] when I started up the "robla.miraheze.org" wiki, and I wanted practice maintaining wikis as I was learning some of the depths of [[MediaWiki]]'s access-control system.

1/ Hi folks. First off, belated "Happy New Year!" to everyone. Secondly, you may be wondering about the slowness of electowiki over the past few days, and some of the chaos in the last 24 hours. I may write up more about this later, but see [[meta:Community noticeboard|recent conversations on "Community noticeboard" on meta.miraheze.org]] for a bit more about the recent server migration. Having been involved in many server-software upgrades and at least a couple of datacenter migrations back in my days at Wikimedia Foundation, I know how complicated it is for a non-profit organization with a reasonably large professional staffs to make big changes to their [[MediaWiki]] hosting configuration. I'm very grateful to [[Miraheze]] for doing their work with a small, volunteer staff. Hopefully, I'll get around to writing more on the topic...

1/ My journal has now become the place where I whine about not updating my journal on [[electowiki]]. As anyone who has paid attention to [[Special:RecentChanges]] can see, I've been editing other pages a lot, but not this one. Oh well....
