'I know, it's the amazing effect of Professor Revlon's Swine Bladder Serum - nullifies the ravages of time, invigorates lackadaisical children, removes entrenched tobacco stains, brings luster to windows, lubricates stuck fixings and adds piquancy to broths'

Actually that sounds like an excellent plan: if we just blanked all DYK noms the checks would be a lot easier. Just let it go. Hold on, I'll do it myself

• 23:4323:43, 10 April 2020 diff hist −56 Dogs of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition That one that would actually benefit from a citation, so putting it in a footnote for an unrelated paragraph may be counterproductive. There's probably something semi-indecipherable out there in somebody's diary that is mouldering away in an Australian library.

Three port holes, an anchor over an eighth of a tonne, left hand down a bit, that sort of thing.

But no! Instead, these bold brutes raised their eyes up unto me and demanded I submit to some petty mortal precepts. Yet even now my article languishes in a kind of grubby purgatory jostled by the profane and banal spew of these craven wretches.

• 16:3116:31, 13 March 2020 diff hist +27 Roar (film) →Pre-production: A bit too much agency for the lions. I love what you are doing with the character of "Togar", darling, but have you considered his backstory? Lion from a broken home, ran away to join the circus, that sort of thing? "I'm approaching it more from the 'likes to chew stuff and chase zebra' angle." Fine, just offering some notes, you're the 'actor', I love what you are coming up with.

It's "Animal Crackers". No? Are you sure? Oh, that was last week's. Listen, I've got this week's written down but it is at home, so why don't you just tell me anyway? Go on, your boss said it would be OK. The other guy always tells me.

• 11:3711:37, 13 March 2020 diff hist +548 Roar (film) More inlines. I'm not sure how realistic this is. Why would you open the door to a lion? Excuse me, the doorbell is ringing....Oh hello, Jeff haven't seen you for a while. How are the kids? No, I'm sorry, I don't have a zebra carcass you can borrow. Wow, I've never noticed what big teeth you have. No, hold on a minute Jeff. Ow, that's my arm. Arghh, get off Jeff. AAAAAAAAHHHHH. [Crunching noises]
