User:Jayvdb, why did you revert my changes? I fixed many links and removed only unnecessary timestamps, not all timestamps. --193.11.177.69 16:38, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

The timestamps you removed were important enough for our initial contributor to record them. I dont understand why you have considered some unnecessary; for example, the marker for "12 min 45 s" seems to be rather important, as it indicates when the speaker starts again after the applause.
As they are hidden, I see no benefit in removing them. John Vandenberg 22:19, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
I am the initial contributor; the extra timestamps was a bug in my conversion code. The intention of the code was always to only output a timestamp when the minute value had changed, but an early bug made it so that it output a timestamp on every speaker change, too. I have since fixed that, and after I had gone through the links and updated them, I of course used the new improved conversion code to get less timestamps all over the place. The source data of my transcription has the precise timestamp data for every single sentence, and I had to make some decision on what (if any) timestamps to include. I chose to include one timestamp a minute, but an early bug made some more appear. --193.11.177.69 01:58, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Your edit summary said they were unnecessary - I looked and considered them useful, so I reverted. I still do think that a timestamp for each pause/speaker change is a good thing, but I have reverted myself as you consider it a bug. Sorry for interfering.
