Pancala

Pancala - it's a very interesting concept. Substitute "pancala" for "dukkha"in the four truths, and they become much clearer. Add dustha, 'standing unstable', and it's natural: wgen you're caught in endless mind-activities 0 a puppet-theater in which the dead puppets come to life, you's standing unstable, easily knocked down. But when you realise that 'the world' and cravings are contibuously recreated - samsara - then you (can) realize the 'empty mind' an sich.

Please stop removing other editors' comments

It's obvious that you disagree with the comments made at Talk:Suicide methods. But you need to stop removing other editors' comments even though you dislike them. WhatamIdoing (talk) 03:22, 4 November 2025 (UTC)

WhatamIdoing (talk · contribs), it is standard procedure to remove or strike comments from indef'd users, doubly so for gaudy, bolded WP:DISCLAIMERs. wound theology 04:08, 4 November 2025 (UTC)
It is a violation of the Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines to remove others' comments about the article content in an active discussion. TPG offers us the option (not a requirement) of Removing or striking through comments made by blocked sock puppets of users editing in violation of a block or ban, but If comments are part of an active discussion, they should be struck instead of removed. Ergo, you could <s>strike</s> the comments, but you shouldn't remove them.
I recommend that you just leave it alone, and let the discussion disappear into the archives. WhatamIdoing (talk) 06:11, 4 November 2025 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Zoroastrianism, a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rise of Islam was added. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ  Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

WP:LLM

Just as an fyi following on Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Larry Sanger/WikiProject Intellectual Diversity/PolicyScanner, LLMs are not permitted to write articles, but using them to classify and summarize discussions like this is not against any policy. In solidarity, asilvering (talk) 01:06, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

Interesting. To be honest, I didn't follow the new policy that closely when it was being discussed... wound theology 06:23, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

Association of All-Wikipedia-Cofounders-Should-Be-INDEF'd-ist Editors

Not actually a cofounder. As this editorial in Medium says: "Sanger was an employee. Sanger has tried to build a bunch of replacements to Wikipedia and failed every time. Sanger has been bitterly criticizing Wikipedia since at least 2004. He is the online information equivalent of Patrick Moore, who uses his false claim of being a co-founder of Greenpeace to get money to spout climate change denial." --Guy Macon (talk) 03:16, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) In the Larry Sanger article, it says he was a cofounder, and I think people can be co-founders and employees... (sorry for intruding on this without knowing the context.) 🫀 Crash // Organhaver ( it / he|talk to me, maybe? ) 04:47, 20 June 2026 (UTC)
Indeed you can. Founders "hire" themselves all of the time. Sometimes a founder leaves or is kicked out and later they hire him back as an employee (Steve Jobs). But if an organization already exists and then hires you to do a specific job, you aren't a founder. Here is a direct quote from Larry Sanger:
"I was more or less offered the job of editing Nupedia when I was, as an ABD philosophy graduate student, soliciting Jimbo's (and other friends') advice on a website I was thinking of starting. It was the first I had heard of Jimbo's idea of an open content encyclopedia, and I was delighted to take the job." Source:
You may be wondering where Wikipedia comes in. Wikipedia didn't start as an online encyclopedia. Wikipedia started as a Nupedia side-project to allow collaboration on articles using the then-new wiki software before entering the peer review process. As Nupedia's salaried editor-in-chief, Larry Sanger led the side project. In 2001 Jimmy Wales decided to discontinue funding for a salaried editor-in-chief, and Sanger resigned from both projects shortly thereafter. Nupedia never really took off but Wikipedia did, and grew into what you see today.
It is crystal clear that Wales was the boss and Sanger the employee. Founders don't use phrases like "I was offered the job" or "I was delighted to take the job". Founders don't have someone else decide how much or if they will be paid. --Guy Macon (talk) 05:57, 20 June 2026 (UTC)
