Bolding[edit]

I think bolding or underlining might be better than italicizing; underlining works best for selectively quoting, I find. oʇɐʇoԀʇɐϽʎzznℲ (talk/stalk) 15:23, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

I would agree, actually, with either bolding or undelining; I was just changing to italics because of the directions. PacWalker 01:57, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
The directions have magically changed. What a mystery! FrizzyCatPotato (talk/stalk) 02:43, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Another thing. Instead of using references to note the source and page, why not just state the full citation for the source under the heading and directly state the page number? See here for an example. Seems less difficult and less likely to get confused. FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 02:45, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Would ensure that all the repeat citzations don't get messed up. I'll see what I can do. PacWalker 03:06, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Well what are we to do with the homeopaths etc. now? PacWalker 23:56, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Oh it's just that one for now? Never mind. PacWalker 23:58, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
If we gather more homeopathic quotes, we can get them a page. Maybe some Hahnemann quotes, eh? FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 23:58, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Constant editing[edit]

This and a few other list documents have been constantly edited for the past 8 hours, im just trying to figure out the method to this madness. Bubba41102 Taste the shortness` 02:02, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Exactly. PacWalker 02:05, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

He's saying that nobody knows. We're all inmates in this madhouse of a world. Er, article. Sir ℱ℧ℤℤϒℂᗩℑᑭƠℑᗩℑƠ (talk/stalk) 02:20, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
"Good night," said the nightman, "we are programmed to edit. You can log out any time you like, but you can never leave!" PacWalker 02:21, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
So there is literally no point in the deleting and adding of stuff besides to add to the edit count Bubba41102 Taste the shortness` 02:24, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
Nonono we want it to be formatted like described up toppish; I was just joking around with the non-responses. PacWalker 02:26, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
Need anyone else to pitch in, i need to be productive today. Bubba41102 Taste the shortness` 02:28, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
We've done all of the uncategorized quotes on this page, so a no for that. But, there are 4 things this page still needs. 1st, to underline the quotemined text in both the original text and in the quoteminer's text. 2nd, to cite the source of the quoteminer's text after the page number. 3rd, to categorize which fallacy the quote is in. 4th, to get the bolded version of the quoteminer's name and the quoteminee's name at the tops of the SBS sides. See List_of_fallacious_quotes_by_creationists#Bird_migration for an example of all 4. Herr FuzzyKatzenPotato (talk/stalk) 02:38, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
Wait, is that joke already a slogan? -.- PacWalker 00:49, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
Yep. :P FuzzyCatPotato™ (talk/stalk) 00:54, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
