Samboy I apologize for my wording at the Biden Talk page. I was operating from frustration and have no real excuse. I will update my entry. I am not always the best with wording, so it might take me a bit, but I wanted to get this out here first. Regards. --Davemoth (talk) 20:57, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for the apology. It shows a strong character and a good person to do that, and you have earned my respect. If I have offended you in any way personally, I apologize too. I look forward to your continued contributions to the Wikipedia. Samboy (talk) 12:04, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if it applies or not, but I've tried to file for a third opinion regarding the wording of Marvin Minsky's window's claim, per

It is recommended that the filing editor notifies the second editor about the post here. If the second editor disagrees with this process, the first editor still has the right to receive a third opinion; however, since this is non-binding, the second editor is free to ignore the third opinion if they wish to.

I field the issue as 'Disagreement over the use of the term "all of the visits to Epstein's residences".' Regards, Rolf H Nelson (talk) 22:26, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I see the third opinion request was denied. While

consensus can change

, it hasn’t for the Marvin Minsky article. I don’t think consensus will change unless new information comes out, which is unlikely since Minsky passed away several years ago.

On a personal level, while I feel #

witch hunt. People tend to believe lurid stories of sex without looking at the evidence; see, for example the Duke lacrosse case or how many people believed the A Rape on Campus story, so I am very careful when it comes to allegations of sexual misconduct.

Fantasque Sans Mono is a beautiful open source font, no one is making money from the font, and it in no ways harms the Wikipedia to have a short article about something like this. It’s unfortunate rampant deletionism took over the Wikipedia; the Clarice Phelps affair shows how bad it has gotten. Samboy (talk) 22:12, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Samboy, I’d like to add Mary McCarty Snow to the user list in the ARP 2600 article, but I can’t figure out how to add the footnote. She composed with the ARP 2600 and actually wrote a book about it:

Snow, Mary (1977-01-01). The waveform music book: Composing, teaching, performing electronic music with the Arp 2600 synthesizer. Lariken Press.

Could you explain how to add the footnote, or point me towards instructions? Thanks. T. E. Meeks (talk) 21:55, 7 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reference backing up their use of the 2600? information on the Wikipedia should always be referenced. Samboy (talk) 00:02, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it looks like they finally filed an unblock request. A blank one, mind you, but they filed one. We’ll just have to block their IP range from making new accounts for a while and block any other sock puppets they make. Samboy (talk) 13:49, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
