@Pigsonthewing, @Cygnis insignis: I'm thinking it is a full stop as opposed to a comma after "Lib" in the ref. Yes? no? Otherwise, I have proofread the page and can mark as validated. Thanks. Londonjackbooks (talk) 18:45, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A period (U.S. full stop) is what I expect, and see, I marked it validated on your behalf. — CYGNIS INSIGNIS 19:00, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Cygnis insignis: Thanks. Second time you've written LBJ vice LJB though. Easy mistake :) Londonjackbooks (talk) 19:15, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Stuck in my head, I think because the US political slogan "All the way with …" had a lot of usage in Australia, a reference to the nation's shared history at the time. — CYGNIS INSIGNIS 19:59, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Understandable :) Londonjackbooks (talk) 04:46, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. Full stop—unknown in US unless you edit wikis. I picked it up from you, I think. Londonjackbooks (talk) 19:17, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
P.S.S. @Cygnis insignis: So then, if full stop is to come to an end, is "full slow" related term-wise? I never understood the "full" part. Londonjackbooks (talk) 06:54, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I read it as 'loathe' ;) — CYGNIS INSIGNIS 11:12, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Cygnis insignis: Ah, as in—I would be full slow to change back to your original formatting. :) Londonjackbooks (talk) 11:50, 17 October 2018 (UTC) P.S. You know, there is apparently a difference between loath and loathe. Londonjackbooks (talk) 11:54, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Cheers, the spelling raised a flag, but I didn't check what triggered it; I had forgotten about the difference. — CYGNIS INSIGNIS 14:01, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
