Thanks from Smallville

Thanks for saving that "Kent" summary; I was multi-tabbing with Nikita when I did it, and must have thought I'd already unlocked the hidden summary, as Nikita was doing the same thing with it (got that one right, at least). KnownAlias contact 12:00, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. Just doing my part. SchrutedIt08 (talk) 12:03, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:HASH

Please don't violate MOS when editing featured content. Using the hash mark is unacceptable on Wikipedia, even in column headers, as most recently proven in the proceedings on Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Huskies of Honor/archive1 among hundreds of precedents at FAC and FLC, as well as style guidelines I could dig up.

Not be be crass, but I really don't give a shit about MOS. I just follow what others do. I've been editing on Wikipedia for years and this is the first I've heard of it. There is no sense in having something as bulky and inefficient as "season number" in a column that features such little information. There isn't much room in these tables, so the way I see the less room those columns take up, the better. MOS is fine and all but I prefer a little common sense.

If that's your attitude towards MOS, please kindly don't make any style changes to pages ranked GA or higher. Getting a page in line with the standards there is quite a bit of work, and remaining in compliance is a requirement for a page continuing to hold such status. And if you're going to apply common sense, remember that those symbols are not understood by- or used by- a large portion of the planet's population. Even in English, as you can see at Number sign, the symbol has many different uses. MOS is quite logical here, but there are ways to get that changed rather than degrading the standards of individual articles- it's been tried before and failed, but you're welcome to make another go at it. Also, most articles here are substandard. Only 16,986 out of 3.6 million have passed a formal review- so copying what others do is usually a path that leads to error.
