Wikipedia and Davis Square LJ
Dec. 20th, 2006 11:31 amIn the last day, someone has twice removed the long-standing link to this LJ community from the Davis Square Wikipedia page. I put it back, and someone took it out again. I really don't want to get into an edit war. Would someone else like to restore it this time?

(I'm very cranky today, apparently)

Date: 2006-12-20 05:02 pm (UTC)Possibly this particular community is not bloggy (though it is pretty networky...), but there's no way wikipedia can determine which LJ sites are or are not blogs and networks.
(I come at this rather bitter because the school I work at blocks most blogging sites and LJ is one of the blocked sites -- I think a lot of people disagree with your opinion of what LJ is.)

Date: 2006-12-20 05:15 pm (UTC)But for livejournal, how else would you know that I had a tasty burrito at Anna's over the weekend? That the BoA machine on Highland was not printing receipts between 11:34 PM yesterday and 7:42 AM this morning? That the damn Tufts kids are on my damn lawn? That the Someday is still closed? That the bank marquee misspelled the word "Wednesday" last Tuesday? That the Someday is still closed?
Please walk a mile in our obsessive-compulsive shoes before you judge us. I hear there's an open shift for "Davis Square Updates Taskforce" (aka 'DSUT' - we like to call outselves "Dusties") Saturday mornings between 7 AM and Noon. This is an important time that needs coverage. Just think of the people in Dunkin Donuts and McDonalds that are not being counted! The red lights that are not being timed! Just thinking about it makes me sob! Somebody call Rebekah!
