Should Bar Messages be added? Certain messages will go over the head of newcomers, like that runtime error nobody fixed.

That one still goes over my head.

I have about 282642 runtime errors whenever I compile DROD!

Anyway, agaricus, could you possibly put some anchors in for easy linkage? Also, since when did you get access to the site?

It says right on the front page! "Wesley Chua, Content Editor".

July 2005, I believe.

Is the page really that large to warrant a set of anchors?

Not particularly, but it's the kind of page that asks for being able to point to one thing in particular. If I want to teach someone about the Law of Hints and Solutions, I want assurance that they read that bit in case they're to lazy to scroll down!

Sorry. I took that to mean "Hey, I didn't know Wesley was the content editor!!!"

No, you said "since when". (I recommend von Fintel and Iatridou's papers on the subject for the difference.)

He became a site editor on July 18th, 2005.

Whoa! What a necrobump. From my day as a content editor, no less.

Are there any other jokes not already on the page that should be added? For my first site project, I'll see if I can get the in-joke page up-to-date.

Also wrt injokes, the wikipedia page for April 1, 2005 has been deleted, and there is no more mention of DROD: JtRH there.

Edit: Plus, "This message will be revealed once you have solved the riddle of the bar" is probably something to mention.

When a thread's been recently linked to, I say it's fair game.

Here are some references for the "It was Mew" thing.

Okay. The page has been updated and tidied a bit.

The last thing left to do is the TCB Bar (Return of Watch the Bar), but that is a separate project in and of itself. However, if there is anything I've missed, please don't hesitate to let me know.
