I've cleaned up the article somewhat. I hope it's still useful. Some of the comparisons with other IRC clients seemed a bit biased, based on personal opinion and not really verifiable, so I've removed those parts. -- ozzmosis 15:54, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
I removed the section about the backdoor from the article because it didn't seem important enough to have its own section. I still left a link to the relevant page at the bottom of the article. I also fixed some random grammatical stuff, and broke the links section into categories, since it was getting kind of long. I also cleaned up this talk page. -- Rhythmthing 03:17, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
The edit that removed this just caught my eye:
The name "Irssi" comes from Finnish internet slang meaning "IRC", and should be pronounced "ihr-see".
Nowadays when Irssi is well enough known, irssi means only the client. Back when Irssi didn't yet exist, Finnish people sometimes called IRC "irssi". Like normally ircci -> irkki, but since "c" can in some words be also pronounced as "s", some people thought it's funny or whatever to call ircci -> irssi. Anyway, since nowadays I don't think anyone calls IRC irssi anymore (since it'd just be ambiguous), the sentence could use a little editing if it's ever added back.. --Irssi's original author — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.250.65.172 ( talk) 20:11, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
In finnish most of the words are pronounced as they're written. It's pronounced just as "irssi" not "ihr-see"- — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tusina ( talk • contribs) 18:59, 22 August 2016 (UTC)
I redirected MacIrssi to Irssi, because though it is rather too unknown for a whole article, a redirect would be more efficient. [wossi] 21:49, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
The section about running irssi in windows is unclear. The section in parentheses can be read as affecting either the windows-native install, the cygwin install, or both. Which is it? Please make that part more clear, and break it out of the parentheses. MrZaius talk 04:43, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Done. -- Rhythmthing 03:17, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
I have removed the logo since it is a red link. [wossi] 21:24, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
I reinserted the logo...maybe it's about time? Rhythmthing 03:08, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
I've listened to the official pronunciation, and it appears to be [ˈirsi], or perhaps [ˈirssi], with an actual [r], not an [ɹ]. Can anyone verify? -- Ihope127 ( talk) 20:43, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
At present there is a lack of references in the article. The topic is clearly notable and references that appear in reliable third-party publications can be easily found using the news search:
Please help develop this article. Thanks. -- Hm2k ( talk) 12:00, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
Irssi not notable? Apparently being distributed with nearly every FOSS os distribution available is not sufficient... BlanchardJ ( talk) 17:15, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
I don't see a download for Windows on the downloads page. It appears to have been removed since the time it was archived. Benjamin ( talk) 04:20, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
