Grammar fix requested
[edit]"the greentext rhetorical style which often centers around stories of social interactions and resulting ineptness" ~2026-72692-8 (talk) 17:11, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
- Actually a general rephrase would be good since ineptness is not the result of social interaction. ~2026-72692-8 (talk) 17:11, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
Out of date
[edit]This whole article seems severely out of date. Nobeidore (talk) 19:25, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
The /pol/ article no longer has its mentions of Epstein removed
[edit]The /pol/ article no longer has its mentions of Epstein removed, however edits are still disabled, making the reasoning for the latest revision wrong. ~2026-83320-4 (talk) 22:02, 6 February 2026 (UTC)

On the table under the "Notable Boards" section, /trash/ is recorded as not NSFW, but this is incorrect. Some types of NSFW content is restricted but it is in general allowed on this board. All you have to do is look at the board catalog and the pinned post to see this. Wiggle Root (talk) 17:58, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

Change "Pajeet, or Jeet is an invented term for Indian people..." to "Pajeet, or Jeet is an invented racial slur for Indian people..." Godestruction (talk) 13:44, 16 July 2026 (UTC)
Partly done: Based on the sources, implemented this change. I removed 'invented' though as I felt like it were redundant. The sentence says it originated on the site later. jolielover♥talk 14:36, 16 July 2026 (UTC)
