Missing “c”? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:304:B23B:6D20:2841:D304:8668:FB92 (talk) 21:25, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- "quick" has a "c".
- I do agree that it should be either "the, a" or "a, the", not the inefficient "the, the". 2601:546:C300:8FF0:7CE4:BA81:92DF:EF43 (talk) 05:25, 14 December 2018 (UTC)

- You wouldn't think so, but there have been dozens of times that people have edited this article saying that it lacks one letter or another. It's weird. Maybe this chart would help. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 01:41, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

The Michigan School Moderator text was being sampled by some Inkscape tutorials which lead me down this rabbit hole. Looks like Kaldari is the world's expert on this. ;-) Jason Quinn (talk) 04:26, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

- Fine little illustrations but they're unnecessary for this article - the b&w drawing the article currently has is there for historic reasons, not just as a picture. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 17:37, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
- I agree that original historical context is more useful. The second image has also been deleted from Commons as a possible clipart copyvio. --Lord Belbury (talk) 13:24, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
