Invitation to join the Ten Year Society
Dear ,

I'd like to extend a cordial invitation to you to join the Ten Year Society, an informal group for editors who've been participating in the Wikipedia project for ten years or more.

Best regards, —  Scott  •  talk  18:42, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Death
If any administrators come across this page and think about deleting it. Please reconsider. The talk page is for my dear friend Steve Gustafson, who passed away on December 19th, 2021. All of his notes, comments, and writings on this page are a living testament to his unparalelled intellect, and eclectic interests.

Please allow it to stand for posterity, as long as you can.

 * I, unfortunately, was never given the privilege of being able to work with you. I believe we may have spoken a little bit in passing, but nonetheless, I wanted to share my condolences, and to tell you that (just based on what I'm seeing here by other editors who did know you) you'll be missed here. Your time spent volunteering for this project... Thank you. Thank you very much. :-)  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   23:09, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Help with Philosophical pessimism and Antinatalism
Hello there! I see you've been quite active in some things related to the above mentioned pages. I'm pinging you directly to ask for some help. I've started 3 initiatives for these pages. If you could spare some time in the near future, could you please take a look at the proposal and voice your opinion? Of course, if you have interest, time, and energy to participate that would be amazing!

Here are the projects:

1. Talk:Philosophical_pessimism — this initiative is already in progress. The idea is to raise the quality of the page by switching it from a mere historical account to a more encyclopedic format.

2. Talk:Philosophical_pessimism — related to the one above. The historical account is overly detailed. It would be much better to have a dedicated page for the history of philosophical pessimism and leave only a brief history in the main page.

3. Talk:Antinatalism — here, the idea is to extract the axiological asymmetry argument into a dedicated page. This way, a more detailed presentation could be given. In addition, we could expand on the various responses others philosophers made and counters from Benatar. Other pages could have a brief description and link to the details page.

I hope at least some of this will spark your interest! Fantastiera (talk) 14:02, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
