ITALQUOTE
I can see that 11 years ago when I did a big project to create pages for all the Outlying Fells, and to mention Wainwright in existing articles, I was under the misapprehension that quotes should be italicised. Thanks for cleaning them up now, and your other work on the Outlying Fells (my watchlist is buzzing with your work). But on the position of commonscat ... well, we're discussing it elsewhere.

 * Frankly, at various points I think quotes were italic, or had contents that were italic but the quote marks weren't, or then were, or had curly quotes, or weird Windows codepage curly quotes. We just didn't have standards, and I'm sure I've left any amount of italic quotes around. Yeah, I've been running through a couple of the Wainwright navboxes - please don't feel persecuted - I'm enjoying reading them. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 10:38, 12 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Y'know, we should probably un-pipe Alfred Wainwright in those articles, per MOS:SURNAME ... But you've seen enough twiddling from me, and I have to go to Tescos. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 10:43, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
