Hi Mike

Appreciate your guidance on this.

I hope you are not referring to my response.

I noticed that someone posted a 'fake' quote by satsohi from 2015.  Satoshi
was not with us in 2015, and the post very likely an impostor.

I corrected it to the conversation, to one between jgarzik and satoshi
regarding increasing the block size limit.  I would hope that is on-topic.
And also of (at least historical) interest wrt the current situation we
find ourselves in.

If you could have a process document, code of conduct or etiquette guide, I
would be very happy to comply.  I try to and hope I do! :)

Thanks
