Comparable numbers

Please see MOS:NUMNOTES, in particular, "Comparable values nearby one another should be all spelled out or all in figures, even if one of the numbers would normally be written differently: patients' ages were five, seven, and thirty-two or ages were 5, 7, and 32, but not ages were five, seven, and 32." Thanks, WWGB (talk) 12:37, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Some of these were a lot greater in distance... like 88 and 6, for example Dreameditsbrooklyn (talk) 12:39, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Difference does not matter. It must be either 88 and 6, or eighty-eight and six. Regards, WWGB (talk) 12:43, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

those are less comparable, so it depends. i'll do it on a case-by-case basis since there's no set range as defined by MOS Dreameditsbrooklyn (talk) 12:47, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:DESCRIPTOR

Not that I'm looking for a response after you offered to drop the stick, but it needs to be pointed out that WP:DESCRIPTOR also says "In aviation, the terms "accident" and "incident" are defined in the Convention on International Civil Aviation Annex 13, and these standards should be followed in naming aviation related events." Once again, aviation-related topics are explicitly excluded from the notion that "accident" is a non-neutral word. - ZLEA _T\^C 16:29, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand. I maintain that this standard contradicts common sense (and increasingly, most RS, which should take precedent) and should be done away with. It strikes me as a blind adherence to WP:Jargon and does a disservice to readers. But yes, I'm happy to drop the stick. Dreameditsbrooklyn (talk) 16:46, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:NUMERAL

"Integers greater than nine expressible in one or two words may be expressed either in numerals or in words". I have chosen to express these numbers - which are greater than nine - in words. This is the state in which this article passed the harsh scrutiny of FAC. There is no reason to change it except to accord with your personal preference, so I am politely asking you to leave it be. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 23:24, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is not my preference, this is MOS, and inconsistent with how most articles adhere to the MOS. If you insist on adhering to it for some reason and leaving the entry inconsistent with most others, by all means. Dreameditsbrooklyn (talk) 23:30, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bosnia 2024 floods

Please do not remove the International Response we keep returning. Aizeelx (talk) 18:09, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We don't need a flag because "Jakov Milatović sent his condolences and offered to provide assistance." This clutters the page and is useless to readers. Dreameditsbrooklyn (talk) 18:14, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
