Wikipedia talk:Five-million pool

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] When should this pool be closed??

Any opinions on when this pool should be closed?? I say it should be whenever Wikipedia reaches 2,000,000 articles. Anyone disagree?? Georgia guy 00:26, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Either that, or on reaching 2,500,000 articles. JIP | Talk 05:09, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Well, I added a while ago that this should close after article 2,500,000 (in line with other pools), so that is a good idea. (Yes, I know this discussion has been very dormant since April 2005, which was still long before I announced the closing time...) --WCQuidditch 17:17, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
How about 3,000,000 articles? --Joe Schme(ssages)dley 21:42, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
Why so large?? The 1MP closed after Wikipedia reached 500K articles. Georgia guy 22:28, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clarification of the rules

Is it server time, UTC or something else we're betting on? Also, I think people should write what time of day they're voting on. :) /skagedal... 17:20, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

It is based on server time and if no time specified, noon is assumed.SYSS Mouse 01:48, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Position of Never

The categories are in chronological order.. so shouldn't Never go last? After Eternity? :P Also its contents are pretty negative and probably discourage participation. --Zojj (t,c) 04:37, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
