That took me back, and made my day. ―[[User:TobyBartels|TobyBartels]] ([[User talk:TobyBartels|talk]]) 03:47, 17 July 2025 (UTC) | I just want to express my appreciation for [https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php?title=3115:_Unsolved_Physics_Problems&diff=381349&oldid=381341 citing metallic elements' motivations and intentions] with a link to not only a Usenet post by Alexander Abian, but one responded to by James "Kibo" Parry.

High resolution links[edit]
Please stop adding these links to high-resolution images to the explanation. They are not needed, and they have been there a long time. Those images would take up too much space on the page. And it is not easy to implement anyway. Best --Kynde (talk) 08:59, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
- As links to the original images on xkcd, I'm not seeing why they would take up too much space. (I'm not suggesting that the high-res images themselves should be on this wiki.) Nor why they're not easy to implement. BunsenH (talk) 15:46, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
