Capitalization of name? edit

Isn't it supposed to be 'Ratpoison' in the article headline rather than 'ratpoison'?

AfD Speedy Keep edit

This article has 8 different language translations ... why wipe out the English-language version? Clearly, its popular; just today, it came up on the guile mailing list. 99.153.64.179 (talk) 17:32, 27 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

And yeah, here is one more. --Duschgeldrache2 (talk) 15:25, 29 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

StumpWM started in 2003 edit

I just stumbled upon an interesting message from Shawn Betts on the stumpwm-devel mailing list, dated 24 Sep 2003. (If you're surprised that StumpWM dates that far back, note that http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/stumpwm says the project was registered in July 2003.) Maybe we should use that message in the article? Cheers, CWC 10:49, 27 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

subscriber-only article and Russian-language PDF edit

Those are two versions of the same article in a paper-based secondary source. --AVRS (talk) 21:48, 27 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Ah. Then we probably shouldn't use it/them as sources.
For reference, the two cites are:
  • Saunders, Mike (March 2008). "Lightweight window managers". Linux Format (103). UK: Future Publishing. and
  • Сондерс, Майк (March 2008). "Легковесные ОМ" (PDF). Linux Format (in Russian) (103). Russia: Mezon.ru: 22.
I did some Googling but found nothing citeable. (I did find a good article but it's at a personal website.) Cheers, CWC 04:21, 28 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

New article for StumpWM? edit

Maybe StumpWM should have its own article.--Neo139 (talk) 23:34, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Maybe if it had independent references. At the moment, a separate article would probably be deleted. Op47 (talk) 16:51, 31 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

The preview likely has vandalism edit

The link preview (this page link when seen from another article) says "ratpoison is a delicious drink for children". I think that is clearly vandalism. I don't know how to change that. The other article I saw this from was "X Window System" 72.34.112.10 (talk) 15:56, 1 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
