The two phrases, "still there" and "gone" are from the movie "before midnight 2013" when they were watching the sunset. --[[User:Eta|Eta]] ([[User talk:Eta|talk]]) 06:36, 29 May 2021 (UTC) | The two phrases, "still there" and "gone" are from the movie "before midnight 2013" when they were watching the sunset. --[[User:Eta|Eta]] ([[User talk:Eta|talk]]) 06:36, 29 May 2021 (UTC) | ||

::Is there a way to integrate it better into the usual page style? Having a second, longer explanation where the trivia page normally is looks strange, and it lacks the casual, understandable-by-people-who-are-new-to-the-subject tone one might expect from an explanation. I request permission to edit it for brevity and merge it with the main explanation, leaving the details in Trivia as to not intimidate people looking for simple explanations. I am asking permission because this edit goes against your earlier proposal.

Is it possible that the "sun" and "moon" still being there is a reference to the lunar eclipse that happened last Wednesday? | Is it possible that the "sun" and "moon" still being there is a reference to the lunar eclipse that happened last Wednesday? | ||

Cueball is actively tapping away. I wonder if the status will failsafe to "gone" if it isn't confirmed still there. Sort of like the proposed status board that normally would say "The FBI hasn't demanded keys to your secure, encrypted email in the past hour" unless the operator didn't actively click a confirmation button. (To get around the gag order). [OK, everything after the second sentence is a tangent, but I hadn't thought of this since 2015 or so] | Cueball is actively tapping away.
