Thanks re Harry Dunn
Good call on "the". WP articles should not be written in journalistic style. PS: Why not get an account? Easier to thank you then.--Quisqualis (talk) 16:34, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you. Will consider more formal involvement with Wikipedia based on how this subject pans out. For example, if others ignore convention and insist on incorrect usage then I know Wikipedia is not for me as I’m not interested in wasting time on arguing with those who try to impose personal preferences over accepted norms. Thank you again.
- that editor is pretty worked up right now, but on Wikipedia we discuss things. You will find (usually) good buy-in from editors who respect the English language. In some fields, the concept of subtleties of language is alien (pop culture obsessions, gaming, etc).--Quisqualis (talk) 17:00, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ping. But "pretty worked up"? Over what, exactly? I just filled in the gaps with the same change? Or is it just me that has "no respect for the English language"? lol Martinevans123 (talk) 17:06, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
