Maybe you can characterize a sense of humour or say that a sense of humour is exemplified by something but you don't characterize humour in general when referring to things that the vast majority of people would call retarded. Plovis 18:42, 15 June 2007 (UTC) That really isn't the correct use of characterized here. As for your second criticism, one can be responsible for an 'instance,' but one cannot 'submit' one. One would not want the article to overly stress the inside nature of the humor. Not everything in /b/ is an inside joke, but sometimes it is. Woo ty 22:06, 13 June 2007 (UTC) That is a correct use of the word characterized and, while I agree it is somewhat vague, the assertion demands that kind of vagueness. 'residents' to 'users', act -> attempt, and so forth) I don't know if it's really any better than it used to be. '.remove instances of illegal content as soon as possible, as well as ban the individuals responsible for them.' is wordier than '.remove instances of illegal content as soon as possible, as well as ban the individuals who submit it'.

Word choices like 'humor is.frequently characterized' are vague and used in an improper context. I have just made a variety of edits to the article that, hopefully, will lead to improved readability. A comprehensive general description of all the /boards/ in one paragraph should cover it. A list like that isn't even necessary anyways. Leaving it on the talk: page seems like the best plan. Lists for the sake of lists are frowned upon and the article describes the breadth of topics covered on 4chan. Just look at, where it's described in detail. At least the list is on the discussion page, which is better than nowhere. This thing won't let me post lists? That sucks. I came here looking for an explanation of the /whatever/s and instead find only that terms like /b/ are thrown around without definition.- Iritscen 17:38, 7 June 2007 (UTC) I always thought I was tech-savvy, but this 4-chan/2-chan thing is absolutely beyond me. Transfinite ( Talk / Contribs) 03:19, (UTC) I would like to second the request for the explanation of /b/, /t/, etc. Trying to discuss the culture and in-jokes of even the popular boards (/a/, /b/, /v/, etc.) would steer too far into original research. All that could be sourced is the topic of each board, which is in the frame beside front page, and the rules of each board, which is on it's own page. Crowley 09:19, (UTC) A list of the boards is visible when one goes to the website.- Ryūlóng ( 竜龍) 09:22, (UTC) So just because it's on another website is a reason why we shouldn't have it here? Doesn't that invalidate most of the whole Wikipedia.? Crowley 11:25, (UTC) It would be long list that wouldn't really add anything to the article. Would it not be useful to create a list of all the '/something/'s on 4chan and what they mean? That's what I came to the article looking for.
