We're in the middle of a historical time. Two creatures will be separated from each other. Waffles will be torn in two. Meta Stack Overflow will be split. This banner is currently being shown on Meta Stack Overflow and on Stack Overflow itself: The MSO/MSE Split is soon underway. Please be...

Hi, how do I handle rejected edits?

btw who else remembers this: stackoverflow.uservoice.com/forums/1722-general

Braiam

"handle" as?

Bart

Curl up into a ball in the corner or your room and cry @random_user. Worked for me.

random_user

hahaha

Bart

But you have a link to the edit?

random_user

11:22 PM

got it rejected by 2k users only

that's what concerns me

stackoverflow.com/review/suggested-edits/4594346

Bart

Myeah, that rejection is correct it seems

@random_user Yeah - you're not supposed to suggest edits to 'improve' code - such advice is meant for comments.

or a new answer

I see

^ or that

11:24 PM

thanks

i didn't understood the rejection message

Blue Ice

It's happening!!!!!

@BlueIce ...I don't feel different. Maybe I need to reboot?

rene

And reinstall windows 95

@rene I can't find my copy of that. Do you have 3.1 handy?

rene

On 5 1/4 disks, is that a problem?

11:37 PM

@rene Will it work as an email attachment?

Disk:

@badp Backs up computer

@TheGuywithTheHat That's dumb... Why don't they post it somewhere that won't go down in ten minutes?!?!

Abby T. Miller

i'm just lurking around the employee rooms where more important people than i am are actually doing stuff, but from where i sit it looks like it'll be about 30 minutes

THE HAPPENING WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE IMPROVES

I'm happy I'll have a chance at getting my Marshal badge on Meta again.

and good night, chat.mso :'(

Will it go down during the split?

Tavern will be moved :'(

11:41 PM

It will move to chat.mse from what I know

Good night, sweet Tavern, and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

Good night Tavern.

(Weeps at the end of the funeral service)

I was expecting some sort of automated message... "Please hold while we transfer you to a new site."

weeping is for nerds

@GnomeSlice Start weeping, everybody!!!

11:42 PM

Waaaaaaaahhhhhh

I demand weeping.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Please hold while we rematerialize you on the other side, quark by quark"

so is it going down or what

Soon.

Listen to this and before it's done chat will be back. Probably.

y'all should designate a chat.SE or chat.SO room to hang out in while chat.MSO migrates

Bye guys!

@badp Holds breath

Stops typing

Bye!

Nothing can replace the Tavern! We will stay here until it stops letting us chat, and then pace back and forth impatiently until it lets us chat again.

Hi folks

@GnomeSlice I'd be tempted to join that room if the description included "Equipped with flashing lights and alarm sirens."

@GnomeSlice But won't SO go, too?!?!

@AnnonomusPerson No, SO won't be affected by this. But they need a banner there to inform people why Meta isn't working.

Although, once Meta stops working that link in the banner is going to be mighty useless.

Just change the link to i.stack.imgur.com/HEEC2.gif

We have temporarily repurposed CHQ.

Weird. I see it in the list but they never explained why Stack Overflow itself would be unavailable.

@animuson maybe so that they can update the meta link? I dunno :P

To copy the users over probably
