Sources[edit]

@Theleekycauldron there might be some usable info in there, but I'm not really sure that a line that they're taking their employees to see Star Wars or a photo of a Jobs tribute means editors were "sleeping" and missed possible sources. Star Mississippi 14:24, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry if my tone wasn't clear, the napping commentary was totally in jest. I agree that those sources shouldn't be added now, or outright, but there might be room for a sentence if the article undergoes significant expansion. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 20:54, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Gotcha, thanks. Sometimes it isn't clear and I'm not sure we've "met" so not familiar with your edits/style. Will have a further look through the ones you provided to see what can be added. Star Mississippi 21:27, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

no, I suppose not, my bad :) feel free to add anything you think might be useful! I was maybe planning on taking a crack at this... theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 22:53, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
