• Same here, because I probaly celebrate Sinterklaas (see Ederchil's link) with my family. However we maybe move it to the 4th. --Amroth
• May be that I can attend. -- Eldarion Telcontar 10:51, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Ideas for Agenda

• Update from Hyarion on technical issues, including allowing anonymous editors. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits)
• Discuss a standard for language articles (see Talk:And and User talk:Sage#Elvish roots/stems). --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits)
• Allowing admins to update the FA/FQ on the Main Page in order to keep it fresh (in recognition of poor participation in both). --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits)
• What is our strategy with The Hobbit (film series)? Can we use it to improve poor membership growth? --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits)
• A naming standard for Hobbits; both the numbered ones and the maiden name/married name question again. -- Ederchil ^{(Talk/Contribs/Edits)} 21:44, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
  • Similarly TA/SR dates. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits)

Discussion

• If this Sunday 5th proves inconvenient, I think we should move this back a week. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits)

• Sorry for not being at the meeting, internet didn't work. :(
• About the SR-TA Dates, I think we should do everything in TA/SA/FA. So it doesn't confuse the readers in which year something happened.
• Also I think we should use the full names
  • exampe: Tolman Cotton senior over Farmer Cotton.
• --Amroth

• Sorry I wasn’t at the meeting either - I tried desperately to keep the day available, but when it finally turned out I could make it, I got bogged down in something and missed it ... :(
  • I’ll try and add something to the forum discussion on diaereses.
