History lesson on lists
When did we start officially encouraging sources for lists?
I'm pretty sure that, several years ago, I saw an old version of a guideline that said lists (not just dab pages, but ordinary 'List of films made in this country' type lists) should not cite sources. I can't find it now. Does anyone else remember this? WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:26, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
Yukky things
Welp, inspired by your yukky things I tried to ask for an edit of lede in Hernán Cortés about a woman who "bore his first son" to make the language less sexist, but was preciously ignored. Well, at least I tried. Ellegony (talk) 11:59, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
DeadbeefBot
I didn't remember the notice at the top of the talk page, so I just left you a ping and got occupied with other stuff. A proper notification this time :) Would appreciate your feedback on this. (You can find a more detailed summary of the edits the bot made during the trial here) 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 12:28, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Cataract surgery
Hello, friendly talk page stalkers. I wonder if a few of you would comment at Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/Cataract surgery/archive1. This article is relevant to anyone who is old, who knows someone who is old, or who hopes to be old in the future. It averages 20K page views a month, which means that having the best article we can is important to the world.
If you're not up for a full review, then please do a partial review. Even having someone post something like "I read the ==Section== and I didn't understand ____" would be helpful. Thanks for considering my request, WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:14, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
Nice try...
Special:Diff/1217122704 here but I'm still not going to get involved. Especially now that there are calls to put "holocaust denier" in the lead of a BLP.. that's just not worth the stress I'd endure dealing with it. Ealdgyth (talk) 14:44, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- I typed a long response and then deleted it; I am still reeling from loss of soul-sisters, and still don't feel ready to comment here. (With apologies to all whose talk posts and well wishes I haven't yet responded to since December losses.) SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:01, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- I did not mean to drag you down. I just don't have the energy to deal with that level of POV-ness. My own life is busy/hectic/stressed/depressing-at-times enough that I just don't need the stress. Do not want to drag you further down - I know you're dealing with much of the same. (hugs) Ealdgyth (talk) 15:45, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- Ealdgyth you didn't drag me down at all ... I was threatening to take another road trip to see you, except I just spent two weeks on the road and am struggling to catch up on my other volunteer gigs, and I was reminiscing about how it feels to have lost friends in real life relative to the loss of our group of strong women on Misplaced Pages. It was good to hear from a soul sister who sees how crazy it has gotten in here, and I 'spose those of our friends who left long ago had good sense. Your feedback was validating as I miss my lost friends. I just feel badly that I don't have words for everyone who has reached out. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 01:01, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
- Well, if you wanted to road trip this weekend, we'd be out on the road to the inlaws to see the eclipse. That is, if we can get the hubby home in time.. it's been wild. Ealdgyth (talk) 01:14, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
