Teachers don't seem like fantasy land to me. I suppose that there could be LLM-based services for universities that help teachers process various reading/writing assingments for a group of students quicker. If it unburdens a teacher significantly, it could mean that they can take on a bigger group o...

I like my comment in the DRV. I'm going to literally repost it here. It goes like this: Procedural close. New AfD overtakes. This is moot. The new AfD is not speedily closable. It is new, but it is well underway. The suggested alternative of closing the AfD and directing interested editors to this d...

Certainly should, but I am not topic banned anymore. Got no strong interest in Amerian politics. I encountered this page (its made-to-troll predecessor that El_C G4'd) doing new page review. I am interested in "borderline" topics that seem unlikely to receive suitable encyclopedic treatment, but can...

"Awesome" was added in diff. Wales' original revision was better. It was a little bit tongue in cheek. There's none of the original spirit left.

Ambazonia is not a micronation, but the same issues apply. My conclusion is that more bold editing and ...

Hmmm. White House (T-H-L) is still both words capitalized. They should 'fix' that.

The NFL Draft is a draft and the White House is a mansion, a building, a residence, a complex, a palace perhaps, but not really a house.

Is Islamist propaganda covered by the Code of Conduct in any way? How does this question relate to the thread? The article in question would be a good example. I got a credit for this DYK and I wrote the hook. I'm not an Islamist. I had left some thoughts about the article in this comment: https://...

AN report, should probably DENY: link

Alalch Emis

It does: It's not just that a language version may be partisan due to favouring sources in its language. It can go way beyond that.

Alalch Emis

If en.wiki is anything to go by, most WIkipedias favour sources in their language. So it isn't just in the Israel/Palestine area that wikis will be partisan, but Nagorno-Karabakh is going to be dealt with differently in Armenia and Azerbaijani wikis will treat Nagorno-Karabakh differently as will t...

I think that in literary style, it's possible to use the masculine pronoun for many if not most animals as a presumed gender. Especially with cats and dogs, but it extends to wild animals too. It's a remnant of grammatical gender, which has mostly vanished from the language. In German, Hase is male.

It was a failed attempt at a literal translation of Serbo-Croatian sentence that would have started something like: Tomislav Živković bio je ugledni srpski istoričar... The intended meaning was "acclaimed" or "distinguished".
