Talk:Period-143 glider gun

I cannot see how the topic deserves its own LifeWiki page (sure, there is an interesting oscillator and a couple of fixed-period guns at the period, but the other adjustable-period once-record-holding Herschel/glider loops are mundane), and now I am slipping to worry about the future where LifeWiki would be bloated with a large quantity of similar "period-xxx glider gun" pages and patterns where xxx is a period well above repeat times of common adjustable stable conduits and for which no fixed-period gun is known, detering potential new readers from thorough browsing and/or potential editors from general maintaining.

I think it started when I created the period-117 glider gun page last year despite it being my own discovery. When a tiny p126 gun was found by me and others (it's still the smallest), I decided not to create a page because there would be too many of them. However, the p117 page has a difference, and that it's about the period-specific mechanism. HotdogPi (talk) 14:27, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
