Just for the record, and fully aware of the jinx factor... Today Wikipedia seemed to be operating like a sleek, well-oiled machine, with histories, diffs, watchlists, edits, and the Votes for Deletion page loading promptly and smoothly. Comparable to Slashdot, or Yahoo mail, to name a couple of consistently good-performing sites. My thanks to those responsible. -- Daniel P. B.
