Typical talk page discussion thread

"Every edit, especially bold ones, is disruptive. Disruptive just means changing the status quo and because Wikipedia is in a constant state of evolution, it is in a constant state of disruption ..."

—User: Liz

"Montana, you know I respect you greatly--you write FAs that have fewer adjectives than that outburst."

—User:Drmies

"[The] readers will not be privy to the massive undercurrents of dross that underpins WP. They require well written, well sourced, encyclopaedic material that can inform, enlighten and satisfy their interest."

—User:Leaky caldron to User:ThatPeskyCommoner

"We live a time when criticism, especially here on Wikipedia, is considered to be a personal attack, which is at the root of this nonsense. Yet without criticism we can't improve."

—The user formerly known as Malleus Fatuorum

Before you post on my talk page (humor)

Come here and I'll point the spout at YOU!

Don't call names, you puking dread-bolted joithead!

You have been noticed using opprobrious epithets. It's payback time from the Shakespeare Insult Generator! To activate the Insultspout and receive fresh insults, click here. Note that all insults generated by the Spout are guaranteed literary and cultured, unlike the nasty things you said, you reeky onion-eyed moldwarp.

GA for Boyd Exell

Hi Montanabw. I nominated Boyd Exell as a GA article, my first nomination, and it's a short horse-related BLP. I don't know if you do GA reviews or not, but if you do would you consider looking at this one?   ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 02:16, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

Sounds great! I do a few, and yes, I can look at yours, but may be a couple days before I have time to look closely. Montanabw^(talk) 03:44, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you today for helping Icelandic horse, about "the only breed of horse from Iceland", to become FA! - We miss Dana boomer. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:22, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

New pics of food and flowers come with the story of Noye's Fludde (premiered on 18 June), written by Brian Boulton. I nominated Éric Tappy because he died, and it needs support today! I nominated another women for GA in the Women in Green June run, - review welcome, and more noms planned. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:42, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for improving article quality in June! - Today we have a centenarian story (documentation about it by Percy Adlon) and an article that had two sentences yesterday and was up for deletion, and needs a few more citations. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:47, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
