Offering both Atom and RSS feeds makes subscription UI in Firefox and Safari confusing. Wikipedia should pick one format and make all the <link rel>s point there. For geeks, it's just a slowdown, but for a first-time feed user, it's the difference between being presented with a meaningless list they'll probably dismiss and being presented with a preview of the feed. http://www.toolness.com/wp/?p=158 "So presenting end-users with a fairly meaningless and intimidating question is yet another barrier to taking advantage of this technology."
Should be largely fixed in r61026. There might be some places where a double option is still offered -- if you find any, reopen, or file a new bug and CC me.
