you should add the theat against stortinget to the article
edit2 bomb threats was posted against stortinget on april 2th. source: nrk. links can not be possted however. i did try. 84.208.108.74 (talk) 11:19, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
/qa/ should be noted
editI feel like the board Questions and Answers should be considered a notable board on the article, the reasons for this is that many memes and iconic images were birthed onto that board, the board was originally used as a meta for 4chan but later ended up being repurposed as a meme board. Jimmybingus (talk) 13:54, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Jimmybingus I agree, but there aren't many papers documenting 4chan culture in general, much less for Hiroyuki's bizarre mess board. If you can find any for us, I would be happy to collaborate with you. Ornov Ganguly TALK 14:54, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
