WaWa
Appreciate the message Xanzzibar! As a Philly native, when I came across WaWa's wikipedia page, I was shocked to see nothing that reflected the almost cult like following the store has. I find this mindset fascinating, especially with regards to a convenience store. I see a similar mentality with customers and Trader Joe's, but even in this case, Trader Joe's is nation wide. There is something so fundamentally 'Pennsylvanian' about WaWa that I am trying to reflect in my posts. It's hard to put into words, but in the same way that Philadelphia sports fans are rabid about the Eagles, and there is an intense pride in the team, WaWa has developed a similar mentality. WaWa is Philly's convenience store, like the Eagles are Philly's team.
I would happily bring this to the WaWa talk page. Again, appreciate the message! InhumanScarab (talk) 17:25, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
Which/that
Hi! This is of no great importance, but might save you some time. Your edit summary here read in part "which/that fix". That "fix" was not really necessary, as which and that are equally appropriate relative pronouns for defining relative clauses relating to an inanimate antecedent. There's useful guidance here.

SS "Atlantus"
Hello Xanzzibar, just letting you know, the starboard side of a ship is the left side. This is the proper term when referring to a ship.
