Hello Lara, I've just been reflecting on my early days on Misplaced Pages, and what a good team we were. I hope you are Indubitably well, and wish you all the best in every endeavour. '']'' 20:01, 12 April 2023 (UTC) | |||
Hello! My name is Christian and I am a student at Mercyhurst University in Erie, PA. For one of my classes, I have been tasked with creating a Misplaced Pages article. One of the first pieces of advice I received was to ensure my formatting matched with the standard formats of the various WikiProjects, or else they would be quickly pulled down. For your WikiProject, what formatting requirements must be met? My subject is a living person, but someone who has been moved into Witness Protection. I'm not sure to what extent to follow the guidelines of the regular Biography section, versus the Biography of a Living Person guidelines, and I would appreciate your help. Thank you! | |||

::Great to see you again! Its been so long. As far as the Reply tool, I think something in your talkpage template might be interfering with it.

::: Hi Lara, I'm pretty dismayed by Misplaced Pages: any pretence at NPOV has been lost, as there is a bias in active contributors on almost every topic. I recently lost my bit for inactivity, which pissed me off a lot. Meanwhile editor numbers seem to have dropped, and so there are many pages that are just piles of cow shit that no one cares about any more. It might be painless to bring such articles to B level, maybe close to GA, so I am experimenting with that idea. Let me know if you are interested in such an adventure. In any case, I hope you are well. '']'' 00:41, 20 November 2023 (UTC) | |||
:BLP isn't my WikiProject. I started it many years ago, but I don't really edit Misplaced Pages anymore. There are no special formatting requirements for BLPs. There should be extra requirements to protect living subjects. I don't know what the status of that currently is, however. That the protections were such garbage is one of the reasons I left WP. <big>''']]'''</big> 14:31, 18 July 2019 (UTC) | |||

::: Hahaha - thanks for the reply - same old straight-talking Lara! After my desysopping experience, I am loath to do stuff for free here also, but I like to learn about things that interest me. Most recently the origins of life caught my interest, and the articles and templates on WP contradict each other, including some GAs, which is fucking annoying. If I can be bothered to do something about it, I will, but I totally get your perspective! Be well! '']'' 22:10, 20 November 2023 (UTC) | |||

Policy allows us to use signatures that obfuscate our wiki-IDs. Even so, it can be confusing. You confused me. As you can see , it took me seven minutes to figure out that that Lara and Jennavicia and Indubitably were just a single individual. | |||

:You dropped by the talk page of someone who semi-retired a decade ago to complain about a signature from seven years ago. Not bothering to notice that what few signatures appear on this page have a signature that matches my wiki-ID. Thanks for stopping by, Geo. Always nice to have a solid reminder of why I don't like Misplaced Pages. <big>''']]'''</big> 18:46, 16 July 2019 (UTC) | |||
