[edit] Wikipedia mentioned in the paper

Today's front page has story about Wikipedia, "Everyman's Encyclopedia" (online at http://freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2006608020435). References Wikipedia users Michael Karazim and Michael Kestenbaum. Robert Happelberg 16:34, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Do we want to mention anything about Wikipedia being in the paper on the actual article page? --pevarnj (t/c/@) 17:13, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
No. I've been told the proper place for that is WP:PRESS. But it doesn't hurt to have it on this talk page, I think. Robert Happelberg 22:33, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

If I was a betting girl, I'd bet that no Free Press publisher or editor will ever edit this page to suppress the error log, as is the case with less professional publications.

Talk Pages shouldn't be edited, but neither should they be used as message boards. The point is to talk about the article, not chart errors made by the paper. And please sign your posts. SixFourThree (talk) 14:23, 15 April 2008 (UTC)SixFourThree

[edit] Error log

[edit] 1987 of 1989?

The year for beginning joint operation is different then the Detroit News page. Which is it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.229.77.97 (talk) 23:51, 8 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] mail server

I know this is a weird question, but does anyone know if the DFP has a webmail server/what it is? thanks 99.227.8.172 06:10, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
