Reckon that we could modify that to be a long term block on a page. Think that a longer block that is narrower in scope, might serve us better than a broad block for a short period. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:21, 30 January 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2022-06
The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article! Bucking is the process of cutting a felled and delimbed tree into logs. Significant value can be lost by sub-optimal bucking because logs destined for plywood, lumber, and pulp each have their own value and specifications for length, diameter, and defects. Cutting from the top down is overbucking and from the bottom up is underbucking.
