I've noticed Wiki addressed the subject via educational processes

This needs to continue, as there are many sub-subjects that are badly in need of citations. When I fatigue on considering citation needed, it'd damned fugly, people. My own opinion be damned, cite it or remove it. I approach articles based upon a "space alien" theory, a space alien lands on Wikipedia and now has to understand an alien subject. Just a suggestion.Wzrd1 (talk) 04:34, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
