 * With regard to "Please return the favor", I heartily support encouraging all of us to return the favor. Well said. // A fine point: The Teahouse has "hosts" who answer questions from editors. My understanding is that if one is not a host, one should not answer editors' questions on Teahouse. As I understand it, this policy serves a quality assurance function, e.g., in my experience, hosts' answers are almost always accurate, encouraging, and helpful. If everyone offered answers, Teahouse quality, readability, and usability would likely suffer. // Note: "Please return the favor" is technically correct on this point because Wikipedia Teahouse is not a "Desk". At the same time, that distinction might not be evident to all readers. Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) [he/him] 20:58, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
