Well, an "MJ issue" is a special kind of performance problem that affects very popular pages, like how popular the [[Michael Jackson]] article was in the few hours after his death. See wikitech-l from around that date. The "long tail" is a buzzword referring to the low-frequency end of a Zipf distribution, i.e. the least popular articles. So it's hard to see how an MJ issue could be in the long tail. I think he just means an MJ issue. -- Tim Starling _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
