I think this article could use expansion. It's also at an early stage and covers a simple topic, so it would be easy for editors for all skill levels to edit. Bananasoldier (talk) 00:32, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. We should improve this article because it sounds like our WikiProject. Bananasoldier (talk) 16:15, 19 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Thank you for helping the Dishwashing liquid article. That was the article I always wanted to improve. And yes, Taffy article needs a lot of help. Wouldn't it be fun to edit Taffy article in a TAFI project? Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 02:20, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fish slice (kitchen utensil)

Fish slice (kitchen utensil) – (page view stats • edit • talk • history)

Nominated for its lack of information and lack of everything. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 23:36, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - tip of the day - Spongebob uses a fish-slice (not a spatula) to flip Krabby Patties. A spatula really is that tool with a rubber blade. The spatula seems to be for mixing. Eh? I'm not very sure. Who knows? Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 01:32, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That would make a decent DYK hook. Fivefold expansion would only be 3745 = 749 x 5. Bananasoldier (talk) 03:46, 19 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Close enough. Spongebob uses what he wants to flip patties. He says it's a spatula so it is one. Everyone knows that Spongebob is the smartest creature in Bikini Bottom. :) PointsofNoReturn (talk) 19:03, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This article is primarily of in-universe content. This article is very developed in the in-universe content, but this article has far to go before being a useful article for out-of-universe content.

Ernest M. Skinner – (page view stats • edit • talk • history) - 16 daily hits

This article gets very few hits, although if improved the hits may keep on coming. Multiple issues tag. The section on surviving pipe organs could be placed in a separate, expanded list article beginning with opus 101 in Ludlow, Vermont. Geirfuglasker (talk) 07:49, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - this article is not very well known for most typical people, and not many people will know who Ernest M. Skinner is or about pipe organs. Even I as a musician do not know who that guy is. 219.89.89.157 (talk) 03:38, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - I agree, it is not well-known enough to be useful for many people. Who else is interested in pipe organs? Not me. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 04:09, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - On Google there are 543,000 results. Is this person really significant? Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 04:14, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - In the Talk Page of that article, it says that this person is of low importance. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 04:16, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

User:Neelix has recently more or less retired from editing, and when I contacted him through e-mail suggesting any pages he might be interested in seeing developed as a memorial or "thank you" this article, about when the character Neelix left the series, was the first one that he mentioned. I've found a few sources, as can be found on the article talk page, but know nothing about the rules of developing content in articles like this.

Support A fantastic tribute to great Wikipedia editor. It would be a great way to bring together a bunch of dispaorate people to migrate to one article and collaborate. We could even talk about it in a second Signpost interview, as well as all our progress since the last time which was just after our failure on the main page.--Coin945 (talk) 02:05, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
