That does sound like a good idea. Do the smaller wikis have something
similar to the #en.wikipedia irc channel that streams RC data?
All of our wikis do.
if so, I
should be able to mod cool_cat's bot (possibly just run 1 bot per wiki)
and use a single channel for the smaller wikis.
Could do. Alternatively it's probably possible to adjust our RC bots to have
some send a second stream (but I'm not sure offhand how to do this, Tim can you
comment?)
My only issue with doing
that would be, would the channel scroll so fast that no one would be
able to keep track...?
In general it would hardly ever move. By definition they have low traffic. ;)
