Opinions

[edit]

As we don't normally sign posts to project namespace pages and this page may one day end up there (or not), opinions here should not be signed. Links to your user page and user talk page are in the page history anyway, as required for copyleft attribution. However diffs and/or permalinks to talk pages where you and/or others have expressed an opinion are good things.
