IIRC, Swordmaker mentioned months back when he was looking for volunteers to help refine the Lexicon that when Q asks us to reread older post topics that Q has altered/updated some of the original content.

Can't cite an example and haven't seen a post by Swordy for a while, but perhaps he can confirm or deny that practice. That may be what Q is prepping to do with these placeholder posts.

I can’t speak for Swordmaker, but I can report that I’ve been one of his assistant proofreading editors. I have personally found a few Q posts which I sought to verify with a LexiQon entry, and they were no longer in the Q drops.

I have found several instances where numbering has shifted as much as 3-4 drop number slots, for example (not an actual example - made up for illustration only:) Let’s say an entry references #3..... but #3 is not the subject the LexiQon has referenced. Instead, the content of what used to be #3 is found to be now #6 or #7. AGAIN this is NOT an actual expample, but an illustration of what I have run into on several occasions.
