Citation 15[edit]

I don't know a ton about wiki markup, does anyone know how to change the formatting on citation 15 to make it more readable and less annoying? I'm sure the info itself is fine, but it screws up the page IMO. As it stands, it's a massive column textbox that takes up like a third of the page height. Could there be another way to get this on the page or something? Monochroma (talk) 19:50, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

LGBT Grooming Conspiracy theory[edit]

I feel like it should at least get a mention because I think that LGBT grooming conspiracy theory is just repackaged QAnon instead of Cannibal pedophiles it's LGBT Pedophiles. LGBT Grooming conspiracy theory was also promoted by Libs of TikTok a far-right Twitter account that supports Trump and atleast Half of Trump supporters believe in QAnon ←§ Edward the eight (talk) 20:55, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

QAnon Trumpery[edit]

Have not pursued it but Quelle-Verschwörung has come up with a 'the legals will encounter problems from charging Trump' story. Anna Livia (talk) 23:25, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

The second bullet point in 'I want to believe!' should be rewritten in my opinion.[edit]

"Rudolph W. Giuliani's bizarre Saturday news conference at Four Seasons Total Landscaping, on an industrial block in Philadelphia between a crematorium and an adult-video store, with two Q posts in the past year in which he used the words 'landscape.'"

I do not know about you, but personally, the way it is currently written is a bit confusing to parse. TheOneAndOnlyCirrusMan (talk) 20:47, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

Then rewrite it. Carthage (talk) 20:56, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

Reason behind the 4chan to 8chan migration[edit]

I'm fairly certain it was similar to why Gamergate moved from 4chan to 8chan. The worm turned: 4chan's mods got sick of the bullshit and dropped the banhammer. As for what the specific trigger was in the case of Q, I'm not sure. With Gamergate I'm pretty sure it was that they started going after moot himself, but here, I have no idea. But they clearly took the position that Q was a bullshitter. I seem to remember running across a mod's comment that that was one reason (it may have been a comment by RapeApe — yes, that's his username — from one of several leaks 4chan's moderation comms have had over the years).
