Talk:NSA

This is mildly interesting - but I'm not sure why we have it. Are they perhaps involved in some conspiracy theories or something of that nature?--BobSpring is sprung! 18:07, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * It's the NSA, of course they'll be involved in something. But the instant we find out what it is, Trent will die horribly in mysterious but entirely plausible, natural, and non-suspicious circumstances. 18:12, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * The article was there already; I have some knowledge of the place, so I decided to improve it. MDB (talk) 18:13, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I understand that MDB. It's not a criticism of you.  :-) I was just wondering why we have it. I guess there is some mission relevant stuff which could be added - I just don't see any or know of any.--BobSpring is sprung! 18:16, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I must say that a google search on "NSA conspiracy" (without quotes) gets an impressive number of hits.--BobSpring is sprung! 18:19, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

I'm getting sick of the damn vandalism, partly bcuz it's the same every time. Can we protect this article, pretty pls? Rand0 (talk) 07:06, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
 * If there is an identifiable word pattern, you can suggest a new abuse filter rule at the Technical support page.--ZooGuard (talk) 09:58, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Just add an edit filter for unconfirmed/patrolled editors using the word "waifu". 11:15, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Or block any IP that resolves to a location inside the M25. BAM! Problem solved. On second thought, that doesn't cast a wide enough net. Also block all the berks in Berkshire. But not Somerset. I like Somerset. Sprocket J Cogswell (talk) 14:26, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

Thank you all for your input. I've gone ahead and restricted editing to autoconfirmed users for one year. I know that goes a bit further than any of you suggested, but I really didn't want to wait around for somebody to write a filter. Rand0 (talk) 07:06, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

Commented out in article
The following was in a comment at the end of the top section, I am moving it here. —Kazitor, pending 04:54, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

Idea: Create 'redacted' article section
Perhaps, for humorous effect, create a new article topic or subtopic that is 'redacted', that is set the background-color and foreground-color to black. Yes? No? Thoughts? Comments? Philosophical rebuttals. MardukSonOfEa (talk) 20:53, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
