 * , realistically, I'm not a very experienced editor. You'll get more useful help quicker at the teahouse, and it is typically discouraged to use email for anything other than sensitive, non public information, for which I unlikely have the permissions to act upon.

I’m not looking for the editor in you, I was looking for a good friend. Jay2930 (talk) 16:44, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
