How is it that 2/3 authors have their photographs on the page? It seems appropriate to have all three or none. 209.161.228.135 (talk) 01:40, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Just look at the Google output when you google for "emacs" or "vi" -- in both cases, they suggest you meant the opposite, almost correcting you. Obviously, intentionally. I find this really funny, and maybe we may include this joke here as well, for the sake of The Editor War and increasing reader's mood 95.165.149.179 (talk) 21:28, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The section is large, and it has multiple cites. There are multiple problems, however:
I would propose just removing the entire section. Lest there be any misunderstanding, I use emacs every day, and have done so since the 1980's. It's my editor of choice. I have suffered emacs pinky at times. But it's not such an enormous issue that we need a nearly entirely anecdotal section dedicated to it. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 20:49, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
