I love how quickly discussions shoot off, like elementary particles, into crazy spirals in unexpected directions.

I actually only watched a few episodes of Elementary[^] . After that the guy started to annoy me.

But seriously, yes there should be / could be a list of approvers shown when a moderator views an article. It might just help.
Except for the people who approved my articles, they'll just get hunted down and shot like vermicelli.

Why do you shoot vermicelli?
Seriously: has anyone, when you've had them over for dinner, commented on the buckshot in their Sukhi Sevaiyan?
You may want to rethink your approach.

My cookin' is top drawer. Except last night. That was erm, well I :thought: I had some cooked chicken but it turned out to be
Tonight is definitely chicken. I think.

How very dare you!
Moroccan Lamb with Minted Couscous not good enough for you?
{Admittedly, I thought it was a chicken stew I was defrosting. This is why I believe in labelling left-overs before putting them in the freezer. I believe in it, I just don't do it.]

No, it is not. I want
White and green asparagus with creamed morels
Maine lobster creamed with leeks and tapioca topped with osetra caviar
Almond crusted Soft shell crabs in a coconut citrus glaze
Roasted Alaskan Halibut with lobster water cooked red lentils with a fricassee of shiitakes and salsify and an apple glaze
Oh, and Twinkie for dessert!

Perhaps make the votes on that survey public aswell?

Let's have a vote on that!

I've just noticed your survery text:
I'd still have voted yes - I normally comment unless spam or plagiarised.
My idea was to see who'd approved an article post approval, in an attempt to deter people approving guff and allow a certain amount of self-policing. The other worry is, if the current approvals are to be visible during the approval process it might sway people, e.g. if OG has approved, I respect his opinion, so I'll approve type mentality.

Ah, I missed this, sorry.
But...not sure it'll do what you think it'll do. As soon as an article is approved it is no longer available for moderation: a refresh or new load of the article will no longer show the approval widget.

I can imagine that they mean something similar to when something was reported / nuked: Message closed because "XXX", "YYY", "ZZZ" reported it due to blah blah blah"
But more like: Article approved by: XXX, YYY, ZZZ...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Ah.
Hadn't thought of that...so no pressure then, eh?

It's all right. I'll balance him out. I don't respect your opinion at all.

Phew! I was getting worried there...
