semi-protected edit request in Investigations section
please append at the end of the "Investigations" section:
Part of the allegation made by investors and Redditors alike was that GameStop was subject of illegal naked short selling.[1][2][3] While proof for naked shorting in GME was not found by the SEC[4], the agency admitted that the abuse is notoriously difficult to track.[5] Investigations by the HBO Max documentary series Gaming Wall Street yielded the historically first whistleblower statement of naked short selling by former investment bank employee Tobin Mulshine.[6][7] Gentle (talk) 22:41, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

Obscene language
Is it necessary and a good idea to put an obscene username in this article? Is there a way to convey the information necessary without stooping to this level? I don't recall reading another article on this site with such language and am hoping there is a policy or way to avoid offending those of us who strongly dislike the use of the f-word. Thanks for listening. 149.8.13.138 (talk) 20:14, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
- While Wikipedia is WP:NOTCENSORED, gratuitous use of objectionable or offensive language shouldn't be in an encyclopedia. However, the use here seems pertinent as it is in quotes and part of a user name that both add to the understanding of the subject. Richard-of-Earth (talk) 03:31, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Wrong link for Lemmy
