I use the Wikipedia library frequently, especially JSTOR and Project Muse. I recall my pre-Wikipedia library days when I had to go to the local university library to access scholarly articles. On each visit, I would print several dozen pages of relevant articles at ten cents per page, but the library (perhaps because they noticed me printing sizeable amounts of stuff?) put a restriction on printing articles. Oh, the travails of writing articles for Wikipedia! Anyway, Wikipedia library has relieved me of the task of doing research at the university library and for that I am grateful, more efficient, and have a few more dimes in my pocket. <a href="/wiki/User:Smallchief" title="User:Smallchief">Smallchief</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Smallchief" title="User talk:Smallchief">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2023-09-16/Serendipity#c-Smallchief-20230916083100-Ganesha811-20230916061400" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">08:31, 16 September 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Smallchief-20230916083100-Ganesha811-20230916061400"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230916083100","author":"Smallchief","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Smallchief-20230916083100-Ganesha811-20230916061400","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Smallchief-20230916083100-Ganesha811-20230916061400"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Gråbergs_Gråa_Sång-20230916110300-Ganesha811-20230916061400"></span>Great resource, if you can use it, you should. <a href="/wiki/User:Gr%C3%A5bergs_Gr%C3%A5a_S%C3%A5ng" title="User:Gråbergs Gråa Sång">Gråbergs Gråa Sång</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Gr%C3%A5bergs_Gr%C3%A5a_S%C3%A5ng" title="User talk:Gråbergs Gråa Sång">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2023-09-16/Serendipity#c-Gråbergs_Gråa_Sång-20230916110300-Ganesha811-20230916061400" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">11:03, 16 September 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Gråbergs_Gråa_Sång-20230916110300-Ganesha811-20230916061400"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230916110300","author":"Gr\u00e5bergs Gr\u00e5a S\u00e5ng","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Gr\u00e5bergs_Gr\u00e5a_S\u00e5ng-20230916110300-Ganesha811-20230916061400","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Gråbergs_Gråa_Sång-20230916110300-Ganesha811-20230916061400"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-VulcanSphere-20230917000100-Ganesha811-20230916061400"></span>A very useful resource for every Wikipedian editors, a must have!--<span style="background:#202122;font-family:'Lato';padding:4px 3px 3px"><a href="/wiki/User:VulcanSphere" title="User:VulcanSphere"><span style="color:#339966">Vulcan</span></a><span style="color:#EC6208">❯❯❯</span><a href="/wiki/User_talk:VulcanSphere" title="User talk:VulcanSphere"><span style="color:#45B1E8">Sphere!</span></a></span> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2023-09-16/Serendipity#c-VulcanSphere-20230917000100-Ganesha811-20230916061400" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:01, 17 September 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-VulcanSphere-20230917000100-Ganesha811-20230916061400"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230917000100","author":"VulcanSphere","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-VulcanSphere-20230917000100-Ganesha811-20230916061400","replies":[],"displayName":"Vulcan"}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-VulcanSphere-20230917000100-Ganesha811-20230916061400"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Piotrus-20230917041100-Ganesha811-20230916061400"></span>WPL is a great tool we all should know about.
