Wikipedia:Pending changes/Straw poll on interim usage

Hi. As you recently commented in the straw poll regarding the ongoing usage and trial of Pending changes, this is to notify you that there is an interim straw poll with regard to keeping the tool switched on or switching it off while improvements are worked on and due for release on November 9, 2010. This new poll is only in regard to this issue and sets no precedent for any future usage. Your input on this issue is greatly appreciated. Off2riorob (talk) 23:46, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi Rwessel. The edit in question was performed automatically when I deleted Dan Madigan (by Twinkle, I think. I wish it wouldn't do that.) I'll revert it. Marasmusine (talk) 17:26, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Outline/Delineate

As one of the few open-source raster-to-vector drawing programs, I think Delineate needs at least an outward link. Even the other programs (potrace and autotrace), which show no releases since 2007 and 2006, are still frequently used. I suppose the proper place to put the link is in List_of_raster_to_vector_conversion_software, where Delineate is mentioned in the "Free Software" section.

The reason I added Delineate to the Outline page is that Delineate autodirects to Outline. Folks looking for Delineate, the software, would hit a dead end. What would an editor do if Delineate needed its own page? Remove the autodirect? Markstock (talk) 15:44, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Yes, if it's noteworthy, it should have an article. Why not start by creating Delineate (software). Doesn't have to be huge, but a couple of paragraphs describing it, something like MyPaint or something else at Comparison of raster graphics editors. Then change Delineate to redirect to Delineate (software), and we can consider adding a disambiguation link back to Outline later – “delineate” isn't really that great a synonym for Outline in the context of an encyclopedia.

And, of course, then fix the link at List_of_raster_to_vector_conversion_software. We should also clean up the other links to Delineate (Aeolus, and ...?) which don't appear relevant. Rwessel (talk) 17:32, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Cool, thanks for the suggestions. I'll first find out whether people are really using the software, or if they've all switched to the others. Markstock (talk) 18:34, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
