In commemoration of this Temperance and Good Citizenship Day, I will be happy to award a barnstar to the first editor to create (well sourced etc.) one of the redlinked articles. Double credit if it links to Toe Jam Hill because, well, this. ☆ Bri (talk) 21:13, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I am in complete agreement with the distinguished and honorable editor Bri and am seriously considering coming up with some type of prize, say, an Amazon gift card.... Best Regards, Barbara (WVS) ✐ ✉ 21:59, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I actually have some notes about hamster obesity and other medical conditions but currently all I have posted is at Syrian hamster care and Laboratory Syrian hamster. Also, I am seeking a GA reviewer for Domestication of the Syrian hamster, if anyone would volunteer. Blue Rasberry (talk) 22:31, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

All I could think of is you Blue when I was drafting up the hamster bit. At one time in my life I had 95 hammies. I bred some sweet-looking tricolors. Those Russians are satanic, n'est pas? One almost bit my finger off. Best Regards, Barbara (WVS) ✐ ✉ 22:39, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I actually sometimes had the temptation to vandalize, but to me the best solution is to patrol recent changes by IP addresses and read all the stupid goofy stuff they can write. About 1 edit in eight by IPs are vandalism, so if you click a few dozen changes, you should certainly find some very hilarious vandalism. I hope this helps.

Excellent remedy. You and I must be the only ones confessing how we struggle with the urge to vandalize. Barbara (WVS) ✐ ✉ 07:56, 10 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
