Special Saint Lucia's Day celebration for you: Lucia coffee and buns from festively arrayed Bishzilla Lucia! bishzilla _ROARR!! 15:34, 13 December 2014 (UTC).

Gingerbread
Saffron buns
Little helper bearing gift

@Bishonen: Yum, thanks! And a happy St Lucy to you! Following my own tradition, I'm spending the day listening to ABBA, Europe, and Ace of Base, pigging out on Raggmunk, Spettekaka, and Arraksboll, flipping through Anders Zorn prints, playing brädspel, reading Henning Mankell, and watching Ingmar Bergman films. Manul 21:20, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Ping who? Do you mind? Weenie 'shonen nothing to do with it! Spettekaka and arraksbolls ok... not bad... though Zorn a little old-fashioned for 'zilla taste! bishzilla _ROARR!! 21:55, 13 December 2014 (UTC).

@Bishzilla: You have my humble apology, your mighty ferociousness. It was just a temporary typographical confusion, and the puny 'shonen should really change her jumped-up name. I hope you will accept my apology and that there will be no burning to crisps or gruesome but entertaining dismemberments. Though having a small brain like others of your kind, you are nonetheless fair and just, I believe, despite this fairness and justness being expressed in grammatically incorrect ways. Manul 19:36, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Will be no burning to crisp assuming little cat sensibly refrain from opening fish gift. L'il helpa not to be trusted, wrought mayhem last year! Acknowledge excellent point about Bishonen, jumped-up is her middle name! bishzilla _ROARR!! 23:21, 14 December 2014 (UTC).

Feast eyes on Swedish expressionists here! (Unfortunately copyright, not on Commons). bishzilla _ROARR!! 22:34, 13 December 2014 (UTC).

Eternity sidebar

Hi, manulkitty. I see you moved the sidebar template up at Eternity. I agree that if we must have a sidebar it needs to be at the top, but it's dull for the page layout, you know? When somebody looks up the article, it's a pretty dry boring sight that meets their eye. The striking lady with the symbols has been put in the corner. :-( Are you aware of any suitable template that could go at the bottom, out of the way but accessible for readers that actually want it? I have only found Template:Time topics, but that seems to be designed on the principle that it doesn't matter how huge it is, as long as it's at the bottom, with which I don't agree. Bigger than the article, you know. Do you or any of your tps do navigation template design at all? Bishonen | talk 17:43, 15 March 2015 (UTC).

Hey Bish! After noticing ouroboros being mentioned in both the picture and symbolism section, I moved it there without much thought. I hadn't considered aesthetics, and you're right, that boring-ifies the article a bit. If I understand correctly, you propose to remove the sidebar and replace {{time topics}} with an already-opened-but-not-so-huge version? That sounds good to me, and doesn't seem hard. But maybe it's not against a style guideline to place an image above the sidebar after all? Being more interesting at the cost of being unconventional is a fine trade-off. Manul ~ talk 19:56, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Hang on, I just realized that's the same as is already at the bottom of the article, and it's collapsed as default. You can tell how carefully I looked — I noticed none of it. No, I think we should just have the bottom template(s), collapsed, and remove the sidebar, actually. It's not like there isn't enough templatecruft on the page without it (three different templates at the bottom). OK, I've done it, see what you think. Mind you, I'm sure it'll be replaced in any case. People who add things always feel entitled, and removing stuff is always "vandalism". Me, I think making a page leaner and meaner is often the best way of helping Misplaced Pages. As for templates, people design them, and then they want to see them used, no doubt. Bishonen | talk 21:43, 15 March 2015 (UTC).

Crap, no, I semiprotected the article, didn't I? Better not edit it at all. I've reverted myself. Bishonen | talk 23:00, 15 March 2015 (UTC).

Removing the sidebar is a solid improvement, I agree. (I had fiddled with it only because I noticed duplicated code for which a template was already created.) I restored your edit (hooray I've always wanted to edit-war with Bish!) and made the same deletion-as-improvement to Past, Present, and Future. Let's see if others get on board with leaner and meaner. Manul ~ talk 23:10, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Administrative ruling

The following from WP:ANI is the concluding statement by an administrator:

Use what the sources say. If the majority of sources call a subject a "skeptic" then they are a skeptic. If the sources calls them a "climate change denier" then call them that. We use what the majority of sources use. Single partisan sources that are used in opposition to the majority of sources will be considered POV pushing and sanctioned under WP:ARBCC. Mass changes of any material without discussion is disruptive.-
