What is Dank?[change source]

Shouldn't the meaning of "Dank" be explained? It is not a Basic English word. IIUC "Dank Meme" has a special meaning. Gvanrossum (talk) 06:15, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Update Of information?[change source]

Hi, I'm not sure if this is a valid request, but I realized this information is dating back to May of 2018. In particular, the number of people within the facebook group. In order to keep the articles up to date, considering it is almost 2020, may I request that information, if possible, is updated to be more accurate? My apologies if this request is invalid, have a nice day!

As long as you have a reliable source for it we can certainly update it. -DJSasso (talk) 18:15, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Noticed en.wiki had a more recent source. I have updated. -DJSasso (talk) 18:16, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I was struggling to locate a reliable source, so I was simply trying to reach out to see if anyone could assist. Glad to see I could contribute.

Confliction[change source]

Hi, I noticed the "Did you Know" section on the Main Page appeared to conflict with the information on the article. I do realize the source appears to be older, yet, however, I think it is a tad bit inproper for potientally original research to be on the Front Page of the Simple English Wikipedia, as I see no citations or evidence on this article that backs up the claim. Apologies for the bother! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:547:8100:8380:b5ea:c51b:3af2:d7c5 (talk • contribs)

Where is this "Original Research" You are talking about? I don't see any issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.180.116.2 (talk • contribs)

I think they just mean that the DYK on the main page wasn't updated when this page was. But it wasn't original research as if they checked the page history they would see the reference for the earlier number -DJSasso (talk) 14:36, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oh! it's fixed now, it's fine. Thank you for whoever did that! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.180.116.2 (talk • contribs)

Greetings[change source]

Hello there. I noticed there are several links that have no existing article attached to them. While due to other endeavors taking up a good majority of my time prevents me from creating them, may I request someone else to make a attempt at doing so? Apologies if this comes off as a bit arrogant or selfish, but I want to simply better the experience of those reading this article due to it's front page status. 206.180.116.2 (talk) 13:19, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
