Talk:2010s

Boring

Oh, great and merciful dictators of Wikipedia... this article has become so boring now. It was once fun to add, edit, and read; but it lacks narrative, flow, and perspective. You can grill the fat out of meat, but what's left is usually burnt and tasteless. Good job, for once again ruining another Wikipedia article. I'm sure it was worth it (*sarcasm) (Tigerghost (talk) 07:47, 27 June 2016 (UTC))

Music Prediction

"vaily simular"? What the heck does that mean? Don't want to take it out in case I'm just dumb but that makes no sense.

No, it doesn't make sense to me either; the author should explain or delete. In fact, the entire "Music" section needs redoing -- it sounds like someone just putting forward their personal view without any references or sources. I'd change it, but I have no information to replace it at the moment, and don't want to leave it blank

Simplification

I think we show simplify articles about decades and centuries more simple bullet points, the reader can get the more detailed information if they click on the article, I think its unnecessary to give the reader 3-4 lines of information on for e.g. a war in this article, there's simply too much to point out to be explaining it all in detail.

A more clean article of the 2010s, other decades, centuries, exc. would be:

Gravitational waves

The discovery of gravitational waves by LIGO researchers should be here, somewhere; although I don't know if it should be 2015 or 2016. The facility discovered the event in 2015, but researchers didn't notice it until 2016. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 02:50, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Photo montage

Someone just added a photo montage at the top of the page to recap the decade. Isn't it way too early to add this? ProjectHorizons (talk) 23:19, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Yes it is too early. It should be removed and generally at the end of the decade editors should consult with each other when determining what is notable to make sure it isn't too focused on any one person's interpretation of the decade. --Kuzwa (talk) 23:28, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Gallery of Notable World Leaders

The gallery looks just plain messy to me and with users adding more and more world leaders who, more or less, aren't actually notable go by unnoticed. Should we remodel it in some way? I was thinking of adding only world leaders with international influence (so Barack Obama and Xi Jinping) and leaders who have a really significant place in a country's history. For example, Bashar al-Assad because of the destruction of his own country and Tsai Ing-wen because she became the first female President of Taiwan. I'd really like to have some input from other users. ProjectHorizons (talk) 14:49, 25 June 2016 (UTC)

Shouldn't Putin's name be in bold? While his position changed during the decade, the only requirement for being in bold is that he has "stayed in power", which he has. - Anon — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.20.133.102 (talk) 15:31, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Dyn cyber attack

Under the cyber part of this article, you need to add the fact that sites like Twitter, Reddit and Netflix were shut down in a major DDoS attack today, in one of the biggest DDoS attacks in history.
