Nothing to say really, I just love this bunny animation. Hope it stays!— Preceding unsigned comment added by FuunnyFaces (talk • contribs) 19:16, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Same, it's a really cute example and it is effective at explaining! Hextor26 (talk) 00:32, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mmm, I don't want to be the dour editor with a stick up his ***, but I do want to express my slight discomfort with the cute bunny. It's a nice mnemonic, but I don't see it as particularly insightful chemically speaking (the way the bunny moves relative to the fixed hat is essentially arbitrary and the correspondence between pH and note highness is not culturally neutral but relies on the viewer knowing the arbitrary workings of a Western keyboard). The only real chemical insight I see is that the bunny's adorable ears nicely represents a lone pair of electrons, which becomes tied up upon protonation. The animation is great for a recitation section or tutorial handout for an undergraduate course, but I'm not sure it belongs on the authoritative resource that Wikipedia has become. Just my $0.02.

Agree with Alsosaid1987; it muddles the concept more than it illuminates it. We can certainly come up with a better illustration than that. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 22:28, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
