UK Online Safety Act remains undefeated.
Plus Wiki rules, Wiki Spin, and physicists get street cred!
The price of Liberty is eternal vigilance.
And other new research findings.
Tis true: there's magic in the web of it.
With the usual mix of war, death, super heroes, a belt, and Wednesday.
It's an easy one.

| Hey Jatkins, just wanted to compliment you on the fabulous job so far on the Timeline of the Presidency of John F. Kennedy! There's tons of info out there and someday it would be nice to see such detail for every president. Btw, that JFK white house diary link is a goldmine of info; I've been using http://www.politico.com/politico44/ for the Obama timelines and hadn't imagined a similar source existed for other POTUSs.

[edit]Some thoughts...
[edit]- Always, always, always cite facts and controversial information. Use
archiveurlandarchivedateto provide links to cached or archived versions of references, so we don't end up with reference sections full of dead links. - Use WebCite and Internet Archive to prevent linkrot and access historical web pages.
- Please pipe links wherever possible, preventing redirects.
- Please upload public domain images to the Commons, not Wikipedia. Please always provide a date the image was taken and a source to a page with a description, not just a link straight to the file.
- Use appropriate categories for articles and multimedia; this makes searching Wikipedia much easier.
