The corresponding page uses material copied and pasted from other pages, and is therefore likely to become outdated over time. Please transclude relevant material from other pages so that it will remain synced.
This seems like a nice page to have, but in order not to fall badly out of date, it ought to be automated. Perhaps set up a bot, or perhaps fetch the nutshells automatically and transclude them (the code at Module:WP might be helpful for the latter). {{u|Sdkb}}talk09:37, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
My gosh—a gateway unto 2000+ essays on various behind-the-scenes aspects of the seething intellectual megapolis that (apparently!) is WP—and only two Talk posts, including this self-referential one? It's like peering at the Grand Canyon through a toilet paper tube. It also unavoidably gives anything posted here a super-macro-like quality, so I'd better try to be serious. [Ahem] Please enjoy these manifold essays, provided for your edification and convenience, WP-wise. Ipso facto, and so forth.

Oops—I suppose I should've started a new topic ("Irrelevant distractions", maybe?), as even I can't pretend the preceding bit had anything to do with automation. Unfortunately, for some reason no doubt wiser than I can comprehend, the mobile version of WP's Talk editor allows posting only, not editing (somewhat ironic, considering our roles as "editors"). Sorry about that. – also AndyFielding (talk) 08:55, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
