message: Is Omond House still standing? Has it been preserved as a historical relic? PhilUK (talk) 22:34, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I answer my own question. Yes, the remains are still there and are maintained today by the Argentine government as part of its Orcadas base. See https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-38574003 (includes photo). PhilUK (talk) 19:28, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

message: WP:SEASON deprecates this, and this article is a great example of why. I took out "in early spring" referring to March. But March in the southern hemisphere is autumn! It's a super article all told, but it doesn't need this distracting and ambiguous terminology. --The Huhsz (talk) 23:24, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Whoever came up with this idea of having the seasons reversed down there was nuts! Causes nothing but trouble. See also WP:ASTONISHME#penguin. EEng 23:28, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

message: Greetings fellow editors! I found this funny meme on Facebook, which labels who is Piper Kerr and who is the penguin, but I honestly think it would be best to remove the image (which I will do), since many protections can be added to the page, and it will be constantly vandalized even after the protection expires.https://www.deadlinenews.co.uk/2016/12/14/wikepedia-edit-goes-viral-explaining-whos-man-whos-penguin/ Thanks JayzBox (talk) 01:08, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Article gaining media presence outside Wikipedia does not itself warrant changing the content. The image is small enough that the more precise caption could be useful. Oppose to changing the caption, and strong oppose to removing the image. BlueBanana (talk) 10:11, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  I strongly support changing the caption to align with the meme.  It does no harm.  It's factually correct. It negates the need for protection. It makes people happy.  And happy people might be more willing to give financial support or otherwise become constructive members of this community. -- Bob drobbs (talk) 07:10, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  - And I, as strongly, oppose it. The problem with humour, aside from whether is is encyclopaedic, is that it is very subjective. Some indeed find it riotously funny, others find it puerile. It is also worth bearing in mind that the, greatly respected, main author, now sadly dead, did not see fit to caption the image in this way. The argument about encouraging donations I find deeply unconvincing, and it wouldn’t be a strong argument even were it true. KJP1 (talk) 10:53, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: I came to this article hoping to find the meme caption, and was sad it wasn't there. I'm with Bob Droob - It's factually correct. It negates the need for protection. And it is unquestionably NPOV. Carlo (talk) 19:27, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, we should keep the word "right", I'm with @Bob drobbs Effco (talk) 10:32, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

text: I believe the caption ought to be changed to align with the meme. MiguelX413 (talk) 04:04, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
