No more Drumpf jokes please. Christopher (talk) 09:16, 5 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for the tip, Christopher but I haven't made any. If you're referring to the Ferengi Rule of Acquisition thing, I can't take credit for that. All I wrote was that paragraph on Holograms. (talk) 10:24, 5 August 2017 (ETC)

By the way, you can use four tildes (~~~~) to sign your talk page comments. Hertzy (talk) 08:16, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
Well, you made one on the Star Trek article. —Kazitor, pending 07:35, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
You must be mistaken, I still haven't made any. The only time the world 'Trump' comes up in the whole page is at the 'See also' section, which I had no hand in writing. I don't know why that warning comes up for my edits to the page. User:WhiteWolf (talk) 3:37, 13 October 2017 (ETC)
You must have that thing that turns "Trump" into "Drumpf" every time it occurs on your computer. Christopher (talk) 19:45, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

Yes I do, I'll disable it now, to save everyone some headaches. Sorry about this whole debacle. JberkOS (talk) 20:03, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

It happened as you said that, FYI. Could someone explain to me what this thing is? Is there some browser add-on or something? —Kazitor, pending 00:08, 14 October 2017 (UTC)

Okay, so Kazitor, a while back John Oliver, in typical John Oliver fashion, released a Chrome add-on that changes all instances of 'Trump' to Trump's historical family name, Drumpf. Since he released it I've had it installed and I'd wager a guess that every time I go to edit this page to leave a comment or edit the Star Trek page, it automatically changes the text of the word 'Trump' to 'Drumpf' in the edit page, thus making it so when I hit save, it takes the changes as something I made, and updates them along with the page, making the actual words in the page Drumpf instead of Trump, as it should be. Thus setting off the automatic warning system and causing this whole debacle in the first place. This should no longer happen, as I've disabled the extension, making it so we can all rest peacefully and talk about how Starfleet is oppressing the Holograms in peace. JberkOS (talk) 02:52, 14 October 2017 (UTC)

Ok, so it is an add-on. Thanks for clarifying. —Kazitor, pending 03:08, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
