I'm tired of a small minority of oblivious loudmouths dictating and misleading the community into their rabbit hole of everything being original research. You know who you are. Maybe one day you'll contribute something useful to this project, but until then, I will not. - Floydian τ ¢ 19:55, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
