Ten of the eleven posts were placeholder Latin — Lorem Ipsum Foo through Fred —
spread across four pages of /news/. The front page now sends people there.

What is left is the one post that says something.

What went with them

  • the .remarkignore entry naming collections/_posts/*lorem-ipsum*.md, which
    existed to keep the natural-language rules off Latin
  • five words from project-terms.txt that were there to spell those posts:
    Corge, Garply, Grault, Quux, metasyntactic. Nothing else in the
    repository uses any of them, and cspell would have failed the build if that
    were wrong

The archive is a single page now, so the pagination has nothing left to number
and stops rendering on its own.

Checks

nps test passes, all 17 verifiers. vnu clean on / and /news/.
Confirmed in the built output that /news/ lists the one real post, that
/news/2/ through /news/4/ are gone, and that the front page's card still
resolves to it.

Still filler

collections/_pages/docs.html is five paragraphs of Latin, and the front page
links to it. That is the last of it, and it wants real writing rather than a
deletion.

cspell.json keeps its lorem dictionary and @cspell/dict-lorem-ipsum stays a
dependency for now. cspell only lints Markdown, so neither is reachable from
that page today, but removing them before the page is written would be tidying
ahead of the fact.

Ten of the eleven posts were placeholder Latin, spread over four pages
of the archive, and the front page now sends people to it. What is left
is the one post that says something.

The ignore entry naming those files goes with them, and so do the five
dictionary words that existed to spell them: nothing else in the
repository uses Corge, Garply, Grault, Quux or metasyntactic.

The archive is one page now, so the pagination has nothing to number.
