Criticisms[edit]

This is my first wiki page. Not really "rational wiki-d", but it was linked to in three places. Criticisms welcome. Cranial Suppositorypull your head out of your ass 15:38, 15 May 2008 (EDT)

I like it :) Jellyfish! 15:38, 15 May 2008 (EDT)
I don't like it. It reminds me I need to get more exercise. :-( --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 15:43, 15 May 2008 (EDT)
Maybe add the "mnemonic" (that I use anyway) of how the LDL has as it's firstest letter "l" which stands fer "low" that has threee letters, just the same numbers of letters as "bad" (which it is). Conversely, HDL's primary wordage is "high" which hast 4 letters in it, just like the word "good" (which it, also, is). CЯacke® 16:48, 15 May 2008 (EDT)

Intro[edit]

The reason it never happens in veins is because there's no muscles surroundin--oh, to hell with it. Cranial Suppositorypull your head out of your ass 16:38, 15 May 2008 (EDT)

Misson?[edit]

We aren't really an "info" site. What can we do to make this article more "on mission". --Pink mowse.pngGodotDear god, fucking grow up 16:50, 16 January 2012 (UTC) :Such as...? I think the article's fine as is. Aren't we supposed to be inclusionist? The Heidelberg Kid (talk) 17:20, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Delete. ТyNo 17:28, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

I say delete. The Heidelberg Kid (talk) 19:27, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

My health teacher told me...[edit]

...that whole wheat and dark green vegetables (presumably it's the fiber (UPDATE: It's actually the Vitamin PP (B3) in it)) can reduce the plaque. Is this true, or is this just food woo? The Heidelberg Kid (talk) 03:45, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

My doc, and it seems most food scientists, seem to concur on this. Pass the brown rice, please. P-Foster Talk "Watched Mad Men thinking it was supposed to be a sit-com. Found it disappointing." 16:23, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
Hum, so eating chocolate cake with double butter frosting isn't going to help my plaque? ;-) Pink mowse.pngGodotGrow a vagina 20:36, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Mothballing it[edit]

It's off-mission, can't really be made on-mission without better being put into some other article, although I feel the tidbit about whole-wheats and dark greens is worth saving somehow. Archiving and having the main redirect to the talk. The Heidelberg Kid (talk) 17:36, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

That's not how we get rid of articles on RW. Sophiebecause liberals 17:40, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
So how do you? I thought this would be a good solution. Your alternative is...? The Heidelberg Kid (talk) 17:41, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
(EC) My aternative is waiting for the voting to finish, then if the vote goes against it, the article is deleted. Then we add category:talk pages for deleted articles to the talk page. Like we have done hundreds of times before. Sophiebecause liberals 17:47, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
Heh! ^-^ Pink mowse.pngGodotGrow a vagina 17:48, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
Actually, on this one, if you bothered to read, we have already started a vote - we just need one more "yes", and/or anyone to say no to move forward. I get you want attention, but do try to keep up.Pink mowse.pngGodotGrow a vagina 17:44, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
Weird unexplained comment about veins in the opening line remains weirdly unexplained. Delete. WèàšèìòìďWeaselly.jpgMethinks it is a Weasel 19:57, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
