I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others’ words. Weird, isn’t it?

  • i don’t even see where the article mentions the office was conducting peace negotiations, let alone whether it’s oniony. i see “Channel 12 reported that Israeli Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer met Monday with U.S. Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, to discuss the American proposal on a captive deal and ending the genocide in Gaza, as well as the U.S. “day-after” plan for the Strip. The report cited a senior U.S. official.” but nothing else.






  • Ooh, creating that article’s a lifetime achievement!

    Looking at the deletion discussion, I see why you would think everyone only looked at the fame, but none of the article’s citations such as “Leeroy/Mortal Kombat Techno Remix” could’ve shown that it was actually a meme beyond someone’s personal character. One editor mentioned hardly finding any Leeroy Jenkins results from Google back then, let alone reliable sources. I have to admit there were definitely some !votes that didn’t look for sourcing, though It doesn’t help that the article did look like something some random guy created for their OC:

    Comically offsetting his ham-handed actions, which led directly to the disgraceful slaughter of his entire group, Leeroy is shown with exhibiting machismo […]

    Anyways, just five months later a year-old editor with just over 200 edits made a draft with plenty of good sourcing and took it to WP:DeletionReview, and everyone agreed it was notable enoug.
