In fiction section

[edit]

An editor has seen fit first to delete the "In fiction" section as irrelevant, and then without any sort of discussion (per WP:BRD), again to delete both a paraphrase and the supposedly "overlong" quotation which actually related the fiction to the electric organ of fishes. For the sake of harmony, I've not restored the quotation, despite its obvious relevance and the need for it in the paragraph, and its very modest length; instead, I've paraphrased it so there is now no quotation there. To be clear, the section is certainly relevant, as it situates the electric organs of fishes in literature as well as in biology. I hope this is now sufficient justification and the matter can be considered closed. Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:52, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • New enough GA. QPQ present. I don't see "stacks" in the hook fact source directly, but it does seem to describe such a layout. ALT1 source more easily checks out. No textual issues. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 01:54, 9 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
