@JeBonSer, all done, let me know if anything is wrong or something else needs to be done. -- Tame (talk) 18:46, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JeBonSer, ALT 2 is fine by me. -- Tame (talk) 18:46, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The idea that this article could have been made a “did you know” in the state it was is is saddening. Qwirkle (talk) 15:23, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is your discussion of the factual accuracy of this article? Thrakkx (talk) 16:07, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No. This is a comment on the former state of the article and its suitability for the front page, with an implication about the general usefulness about the selection process.

It is also now a comment on the beta edit conflict gizmo. which appears to have eaten my previous removal of the accuracy tag. Qwirkle (talk) 16:19, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Spectacularly unhelpful. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 19:29, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why does the "Work (selection)" section look so weird?

[edit]

Why is there a long line in front of every year given? A line which seems to consist of several parts, like this one: ––––– It does look weird to me; is that commonly used? --LordPeterII (talk) 21:29, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's like ibid. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 21:31, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's also weird to not call it "Selected works". I recently fixed a similar quirk at Lawrence Weiner, will see what I can do here. Not loving those lines, either, but norms will be norms, I'm afraid. InedibleHulk (talk) 22:17, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, I see. Thanks @The Rambling Man, I knew of ibid but not this. And I still think it looks weird ^^ --LordPeterII (talk) 18:50, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The reason it looks weird is that a list using a repeat convention, whether ditto marks, dashed lines, or ibidem normally starts with a first use of the thing being repeated. Here, since only one author is represented, they are pointless. Qwirkle (talk) 22:15, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Now seen differently. The years are unparenthesized, which is a bit weird, but that's the template's decision. Further human intervention may be a welcome change. InedibleHulk (talk) 20:37, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
