  1. This is a thorough review of coffee within the scope of RW's mission. Bongolian (talk) 21:21, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
  2. Most definitely within the mission and silver criteria. Justarandomliberal (talk) 23:23, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Status quo[edit]

  1. I wonder if there would be some way to strike a balance in tone between the current version and the Fun version. The Fun one is bit too chaotic and this one a bit too dry (for my tastes anyway, I understand that many others don't feel the same as I do, and that's okay). The references at a quick glance are fantastic, a good mix of academic papers, historical sources and mainstream news articles, but it needs that bit of silliness to make it more digestible if it's going in the shop front. For me it's on the higher end of Bronze, just a smidgen short of Silver. - Rairyu75 (Talk) 09:00, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
    So, you've never tasted the exquisite flavour of Dry Coffee??? Arcadium Trancefer (talk) 23:50, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
  2. Rather short article, no? And how essential is coffee to our mission, beyond keeping us up at night? CorruptUser 07:06, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
    I'm not confident enough to comment on essentiality, but something can be concise and still be exhaustive, yes? Carthage (talk) 07:02, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

Goat[edit]

  1. @Bongolian and @Cosmikdebris I have been toying with the idea of making a "Bar Sign" that could be stuck in the Saloon Bar, a dynamic counter that would display the number of articles nominated for deletion and demotion. I only caught this one because I have the day off work and I have my tent pitched up in Recent changes, but perhaps we could get more community feedback if the patrons of the Saloon Bar were invited here. Whaddaya all think? Or maybe we can add the "Useful Links" template that's on top of Recent changes to the top of the Saloon Bar? I know not everyone likes to edit but asking them to read and offer feedback would be no skin off their back, surely? - Rairyu75 (Talk) 09:09, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
    Something to get more attention might be good. Bongolian (talk) 16:50, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
    @Rairyu75, here you have how to make such counters. You could try making it look better in the Saloon Bar. It's not a bad idea to sneak it in. --ApooftGnegiol (talk) 18:27, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
