point is people who prefer small screens are unfortunately a vocal minority. the iphone minis were discontinued for low sales

I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others’ words. Weird, isn’t it?

I felt the same preference for large TVs, for which smaller options are def still available. you first think it’s big and then think it should be bigger. and the normal iphone fits in my pocket with lots room to spare
what are essentially tablets
once you get a big screen, you don’t go back, bean

Aatube@kbin.melroy.orgOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Wikipedia is resilient because it is boring5·11 days agoOoh, creating that article’s a lifetime achievement!
Looking at the deletion discussion, I see why you would think everyone only looked at the fame, but none of the article’s citations such as “Leeroy/Mortal Kombat Techno Remix” could’ve shown that it was actually a meme beyond someone’s personal character. One editor mentioned hardly finding any Leeroy Jenkins results from Google back then, let alone reliable sources. I have to admit there were definitely some !votes that didn’t look for sourcing, though It doesn’t help that the article did look like something some random guy created for their OC:
Comically offsetting his ham-handed actions, which led directly to the disgraceful slaughter of his entire group, Leeroy is shown with exhibiting machismo […]
Anyways, just five months later a year-old editor with just over 200 edits made a draft with plenty of good sourcing and took it to WP:DeletionReview, and everyone agreed it was notable enoug.
Aatube@kbin.melroy.orgOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Wikipedia is resilient because it is boring4·11 days agoNotability is sourcing: Articles generally require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the topic. They even made a catchy name for it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:The_answer_to_life,_the_universe,_and_everything (well they borrowed it but you catch my drift). Even if every single claim is Verifiable, it will be deleted if there aren’t enough secondary (independent of the topic) sources because it’s dangerous and likely non-neutral to only hear the subject’s view of themselves. Confusing Notability with something else is a pretty common pitfall for new article creators, so there’s things like “Articles for creation” where you can submit article drafts for review and have conversations with the reviewer on what exactly is wrong with your article, as well as many other guides and forums like Help:Your first article, WP:Teahouse, and WP:Help desk.
It didn’t help that a couple years later somebody else decided it was notable after all and created the article.
The essay https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Too_soon is often cited to say “This might get the needed sourcing in a few years, but right no we can’t tell, so it’s better to create the article again when it has what’s needed to align with our content guidelines rather than rush to make a misleading one right now.” So either that’s exactly what your situation was, or . I’d love to take a look at the article you’re talking about.

It has a really bad name though, that guideline. I was a part of the editors who wanted to change it to “suitability” but there’s the resiliency.

people say this every year and absolutely nothing happens. chrissakes the z flip series has been around since 2020 when their very concept was being endlessly hyped up in the press. well why would anything change now? but then again people said the same thing about Russia invading Ukraine beyond Crimea
