"obvious" content

edit

People apply the "It's obvious!" argument to content, too. "Obvious" things, in their view, aren't required to comply with our basic verifiability policy. See User:Uncle G/On sources and content#There are no exceptions to everything for discussion of this, and the actual deleterious effect that it has on the encyclopaedia.

Quotation marks

Hello. I would just like to mention that according to the MLA, periods and commas are supposed to be inside quotation marks. Since the work is yours, I will not do any corrections. By the way, nice essay! --MaxDawsonC (talk) 01:19, 20 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

GeoSwan: I wrote an essay not long ago, WP:CLEARLY, that you might find agreeable reading. I have referred to it once or twice during deletion discussions— people are usually nonplussed. You, however, might not be. KDS4444 (talk) 05:27, 5 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
