- Does anyone want to call Harris's office and find out what they charge for editing on behalf of their clients? Ask them what they would take to troll some tag-team stalkers on econ articles. EllenCT (talk) 21:26, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
- Re. "Speedy editing" above, is "Wikipedia editing times have vastly increased" right? Maybe "saving speeds have vastly increased". Thanks, SchreiberBike talk 22:17, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
- I've changed the text to make it clear that what has decreased significantly is the time needed by the MediaWiki software to save an edit, not the overall time that an editor spends doing an edit. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 01:39, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

[edit]"If you don’t know how to get something corrected on Wikipedia for your boss and you're a digital campaign consultant in 2015, you might as well quit."
Wow, that's a strong statement. And quite true, I guess. --NaBUru38 (talk) 16:15, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
- But SHOULD you correct it? If you shouldn't, then not being able to shouldn't be seen as a problem.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 19:15, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
- I did my part with this article. I wasn't sure whether an edit was justified to the section on Indonesia AirAsia since that section has a wlink to the main article, but at the very least there needed to be a hatnote.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 19:13, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
Lists of lists of lists of lists
[edit]My position on Toilet paper orientation, since I live alone, is just to put the toilet paper on top of the toilet. It's just too complicated to change the roll otherwise. But I'm not editing that article to add my position on the subject. I doubt I would find enough sources advocating for that position to justify the addition, although it might be there already.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 19:19, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
