[edit] Inprovements

I'm not sure that both a "definitions" and "acronyms" sections is needed. Couldn't they just be under one heading named "Lexicon" or "Appendix"? --WildKard 22:10, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Suggestions for expansion: explanations of TSC culture such as Judy Patch, "I want my dollar and my taco", burkiss, and the like. 72.141.221.112 20:53, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:72.141.221.112's suggestions

Those are good ideas, but I'll probably leave the Judy Patch and "Dollar and my taco" stuff to someone else. Judy, because I don't think I could handle adding that while maintaining a neutral point of view. The "Dollar and my taco", because I still don't quite understand the origins of that quote. I am however, planning to add a "Well-known members" category, including burrkiss. I will probably just put brief reasons why they are so "famous", and leave more detailed biographies for them to add themselves. I will likely link their usernames to their TSC profile page.
On another note, I think that this article is expanding very rapidly (MUCH THANKS to everyone who has contributed), and I feel it no longer is a stub, and would like to remove the stub classification. However, I'm kinda new to wikipedia, and so I want some other peoples opinions on that.

I don't think it's a stub anymore; I would recommend unstubbing it as well. As for adding Judy Patch and such, if we do that, we'll probably want to make a new category for the 'memes'; IWANM (I wanna new mouse) would probably go there.Veinor (ヴエノル) 01:26, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps to be adding something concerning the regular exchange of karma between members? IProcrastrinate ThereforeISlobOut 01:50, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] LART

Wikipedia already has a definition of LART; should this article not have the link to it in its explanation?

[edit] Fancruft

Personally, I think the article needs to be trimmed. A lot of the stuff seems to be unnecessary detail to me (in particular the section about definitions and notable users). I also don't think the 'Murphy's Law' section is necessary; I just can't see what it adds. Veinor (talk to me) 21:46, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

I tend to agree. The wikipedia article should not act as a FAQ for TSC, but as an overview of what the site is. The level of detail that previously existed would be better of hosted on TSC itself. Resolute 21:59, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
