Numbering rules?

Hi! I was wondering if it'd be funnier if right after saying (in no particular order) the bullet points were numbered. Thoughts? — Ixtal ⁂ (talk) 16:12, 22 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

This is actually a real problem

The page is humour, but it is addressing what is actually a real problem. Do readers really want to read all the maintenance templates? In general, no, they do not. They just scroll straight past them – basically, they are just an annoyance. They are of interest to editors, but not the general reader. We should find somewhere less obtrusive to put them other than screaming banner headings. SpinningSpark 09:09, 25 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
