Wikipedia is great, and people like you make it that way, thank you :)
- ksec 6y agoYes, I think link [1] is better at showing its history. Personally I was exposed to e10s from Firefox before leaning about the who a11y and all other xNumberx Terms. [1] http://www.i18nguy.com/origini18n.html http://www.i18nguy.com/origini18n.html
- OJFord 6y agoThat was there when I added it, I think I thought it was just a citation for it being referred to as 'k8s'. I left the citation there but added to '(commonly stylized as k8s', ', a [[numeronym]]'. It was removed for being 'distracting trivia': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/945525973 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/945525973 :shrug: I thought it was pretty innocuous, succinctly explaining it and linking to a page with more examples for those curious. I suppose the pace would be too much slower, but I really wish Wikipedia had more of a 'maintainer'-'change request' model (a la GitHub etc. or even mailing lists) sometimes, so edits had to actually be justified and approved. StackExchange has a reasonable compromise I suppose - you're automatically a 'maintainer' with certain (quite low) karma, and until then your changes are proposed and can be (but generally not) justified per se, and approved by someone who does have sufficient points; then you get some points if its approved.
