Uh...what?

What the heck is this page supposed to be about? Something to do with respect, BS, cheese and self-parody. It's too long and incoherent, with no sub-sections. And why is it some monstrous hybrid of a project page and talk page?

Apparently there is need for improvement? It was hoped that editors would gain by reading this "essay" (there are many essays in project space) that it's about the fact that while there was a time when few respected Wikipedia the encyclopedia and Wikipedia the project, that has changed and continues to change for the better. So when editors "wine" about that, this essay just offers them some cheese with their whine. Be prosperous! Paine 03:29, 13 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, that makes sense. But the essay still doesn't. Perhaps that it could do with an improved nutshell (although I do like the current one). Also: subsections! CamelCase (talk | contribs) 23:54, 15 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You got it! Be prosperous! Paine 05:21, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
