"articles of users who are not wanted here". What does that mean? GamerPro64 23:28, 6 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@GamerPro64: Given Gerda's history, I assume she is referring to Jack Merridrew/Br'er Rabbit (etc.) and Rlevse/PumpkinSky, among others. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 23:57, 6 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:Gerda Arendt is one of a very small minority of editors who has the guts to stand up and defend some editors who have been (hush)blocked or banned. This is a rare trait around here and announcing that one not part of The Community, is very courageous indeed. Just my $.02. XOttawahitech (talk) 19:35, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I like the illustrations for this report. --Pine^✉ 07:12, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerda Arendt: Interesting information about the history of Franz Kafka - I had no idea that user:PumpkinSky, whose nationality remains unknown to me, was the major contributor (1068 edits) to the article about one of the best known authors of the twentieth century. Now where else on Wikipedia can once find such interesting wiki-tidbts about the creation of an article about an author from Prague (which is definitely not in Germany)?
