It has recently come to our attention that there are too many noticeboards. Before introducing any new noticeboards, we recommend posting a notice here to see whether the community can handle WP:YAN (Yet Another Noticeboard). Example below.
I'd like to propose the Wikipedia: Sarcasm Noticeboard to discuss situations where an editor uses sarcasm when an earnest response would be preferable. Jehochman Talk 20:18, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
I'm almost half serious about this one. How about a "In popular culture" section noticeboard? Anytime someone starts adding an "In popular culture" section to an article, you can immediately notify the community to prevent articles from containing endless lists of songs, movies and TV shows.[1] A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 23:31, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
There are far too many noticeboards. I'm still internalizing Sue Gardner's speech, where she noted (I hope I'm paraphrasing correctly), the impressive capacity of volunteer groups to generate incredibly detailed guidelines, and instructions, but the inability of such groups to work on simplification of procedures. I'm not yet sure whether the driver is being a volunteer, or being a human, but we could use some simplification. So maybe we need a noticeboard to track where procedures are too complicated. In the spirit of not adding to the clutter, maybe this one could be eliminated.--SPhilbrickT 19:10, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
A place where discussions can be... discussed. Not to be confused with Wikipedia talk:Discussions for discussion which discusses those discussions. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 02:28, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
A noticeboard where editors can be made aware of attempts to cite this noticeboard in discussions about noticeboards. Fermiboson (talk) 12:44, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
