GAN instructions
We need to trim and simplify the GAN page now, it seems, as there's an FA reg bitching about it on the Village Pump. God forbid he be confused by a process he doesn't participate in. And his suggestion to remedy it is to merge PR into it, which would involve more instructions while somehow magically decreasing the backlog of both. Brilliant.

- Yes, I saw that and added a brief comment. I agree that the GAN page needs some clarification and copyediting. I suggest we treat it like an article and try to meet criterion 1! :-) Geometry guy 16:12, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

The Good Article Medal of Merit | |
| G'guy, for everything you have done to improve the quality of Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Good articles, I present you with this award. You have proven time and time again to be an invaluable asset to the project. Your thoughtful discussions and willingness to tackle tasks after consensus has been reached are more appreciated than you know. Thank you for everything that you do! Lara❤Love 20:14, 30 September 2007 (UTC) |
Well, not always after consensus, but what the heck, be bold. Thanks for the kind words. Geometry guy 20:21, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
A program
I need a program. Troll-feeders anonymous. Or Troll-feeder management classes. Why do I always get caught up in these messes? And why can't I ever just shut up? It's horrible. And this one was so obvious. I should have just ignored from the start. I need a detector. Something to alert me... and prevent me from replying. Gah! So obvious. Why can't I see it from the start?

- There was a programme on TV when I was a kid called "Why Don't You?". The lyrics of the theme tune were something like
- Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you? Why don't you... just switch off your television set and go and do something less boring instead?
- It continued along the lines of "Sitting at home, watching TV, turn it off, it's no good for me...". However, I soon discovered, that, true to its word, the programme was really boring, so when the intro tune reached "...do something less boring instead?", I would reply "OK", and switch of the TV.
- And the point is? This is your leisure time. It should be interesting or fun or (preferably) both. Just ask yourself "Am I getting something good out of this?" If a particular article or interaction or discussion is not satisfying, go and do something else! Well, that is my (7 year old) philosophy... Geometry guy 20:36, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
