A barnstar for you!

	The Special Barnstar
	For literally being a special editor and a source of inspiration to me for four solid years and counting. Celestina007 (talk) 19:55, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

• @Celestina007: I'm only grateful for one thing—that whatever happens in the future, I've been lucky enough to have had the chance to watch you grow and develop onto one of our strongest contributors—front and back of house—while not shying away from the sensitive areas needing a nuanced touch. Keep up the (very!) good work! ——Serial 18:47, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

You know when your superiors at work make a remarkable comment about you and you literally can not at that moment articulate a proper response that mirrors your inner feelings, that’s me right now. I literally do not have the right words to use to appreciate this statement. Celestina007 (talk) 19:46, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

		The Teamwork Barnstar
		I would like to thank you and User:Levivich for you help on Fielding L. Wright back in 2020. Sorry for taking so long to give you a barnstar. Jon698 (talk) 17:29, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

Cheers Jon698; it was Levivich who did all the "heavy lifting", actually helping you—I just did a slow burn in the corner. Mind you, did I send you a bunch of books? Anyway, the article's looking dead good. Good work! ——Serial 18:43, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

ITN recognition for Gavin MacLeod

On 4 June 2021, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article Gavin MacLeod, which you updated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page.  — Amakuru (talk) 11:10, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Why do you have to be so infuriatingly diplomatic, Amakuru?! (should that've said "f*****g diplomatic"...?) ——Serial 11:32, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

As the page to which you've linked rightly says, a crack at the right moment can often break the tension. 😀  — Amakuru (talk) 12:04, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Many thanks for seconding the nomination as editor of the week. It was a very pleasant surprise when I got on my computer after getting up here in Melbourne. --Bduke (talk) 00:16, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

Hey

I was just thinking last week that I hadn't seen you around in ages. It's good to see you back! Cabayi (talk) 10:32, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

Thanks, Cabayi! Don't think anyone noticed though :) hope this finds you well! ——Serial 11:08, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

November thanks

November songs

... for Bach background an a good analysis on AN. Today 3 DYK, Brahms depicted + sadly Aga Mikolaj (listen!). May the roads that we travel make us meet again! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:36, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Today we received the annual arbcom message, which made me think. SlimVirgin pictured again, and musing about her wisdom. Will use the Bach more, after updating Volker Lechtenbrink. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:32, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

The memory of SlimVirgin is pictured again, in the context about my dangerous thoughts about arbcom. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:13, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Good to see you around again

I considered commenting on the FAC, but I'm still a bit terrified of the place. Hope you're well. Vaticidalprophet 02:53, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

@Vaticidalprophet: And I thank you. As someone recently pointed out, my activity over the last year does rather look as though my parole keeps getting pulled. But thanks for waving that bone in my face and then taking it away again :p I'm surprised you'd be worried about reviewing at FAC; reviewers, I find, tend to find themselves the ones in the positions of power, usually, unless they make completely unreasonable demands (which in itself can be left to the co-ords to give due weight to...and ignore). FWIW, I'm surprised not to have seen any of your stuff listed there yet (yes, Prehistoric religion, I'm looking at you)—many of your articles are only a spit and polish away from potential FA status, and they're particularly original and eclectic topics. Think on it, perhaps.Thanks for the hello, in any case  :) ——Serial 15:15, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

I did have an article listed there at one point; "it went well for the first two months and then didn't", might be the best way to put it. I suspect I'll come back with a smaller topic next time (medical articles have their own lore). I hope your parole doesn't get pulled again :) Vaticidalprophet 21:42, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

Your e-mail

I've blocked Check-wikifi-here. I would have done it earlier, but I had to get some technical information on how the Thanks button works once a user is blocked. I must say your report is one of the more unusual ones I've received. BTW, I have Thanks turned off in my Preferences. Personally, I think the idea is a bit silly.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:03, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Good result Bbb23, thanks. Yeah, the height of childishness...although one to which I've climbed occasionally if someone says something particularly sardonic and/or crushing. ——Serial 15:53, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Hmm. Late medieval and Tudor. Did you see that job opening in Groningen? The deadline was sometime last week. Are you on the market? Drmies (talk) 17:25, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Apology

I would like to apologise for my behaviour earlier. I make no excuses for it. My reversion of your removal of the user talk CSD as vandalism was definitely against WP:AGF and WP:CIVIL. I also apologise for my rather rude and terse comments here following your warning, which was definitely justified. Mako001 (talk) 04:24, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

DYK for Liverpool Women's Hospital bombing

On 13 January 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Liverpool Women's Hospital bombing, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the taxi driver in the Liverpool Women's Hospital bombing was later commended for "incredible presence of mind and bravery"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Liverpool Women's Hospital bombing. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Liverpool Women's Hospital bombing), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Cwmhiraeth (talk) 00:03, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

• Hey, cool. But I basically just wrote the original article; many moons ago I realised that any article put forward for ITN would be taken over, not so much by gatekeepers, but by trivialistas and this hasn't proved me wrong. Still, collectivism is the name of the day!  :) SN54129 06:05, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

Don't often see you down at SPI. Your spidey senses were right - there were more. Girth Summit _(blether) 19:21, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

Probably what keeps me there too. Girth Summit _(blether) 18:22, 23 January 2022 (UTC)

I did not...

...miss the reference to my oppose in your own rationale. Thanks for noticing the point I was raising. You took an extended break last year, and I've been editing sporadically for many months. It would be remiss of me not to drop by and say hello. Hope you're well, Mr rnddude (talk) 14:32, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

Yeah, long time no virtual interaction. Glad you've come through all *that* crap, I hope not too scathed. Also yeah, there's no fury like a support scorned eh?! SN54129 18:59, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

DYK for Le Livre de Seyntz Medicines

On 1 February 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Le Livre de Seyntz Medicines, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in 1354, the Duke of Lancaster compared his heart to the sea, a fox's hole, and a market-place? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Le Livre de Seyntz Medicines. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Le Livre de Seyntz Medicines), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page.

A barnstar for you!

		The Epic Barnstar
		I'm giving you this barnstar in recognition of your impressive expansion of Concordat of Worms. I'm glad to see someone share my interest in this very deserving topic. Thank you! Modussiccandi (talk) 21:53, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for this Modussiccandi, and also for kickstarting it in the first place. What I noticed was that the original merge (so-called) discussion comprised one editor's proposal—in which the topic's notability was actually admitted!—a "go ahead" from a <300 edit account, and no notifications to any relevant project pages whatsoever. Slam-dunk merge!I don't want to tread on your toes, but there's a bit more I'd like to add (not much—just a few unused sources). I don't know about you, but I reckon there's an FA in there, eventually; thoughts? SN54129 12:11, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

PS: Congratulations on your upgrade, of course. SN54129 12:11, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks a lot. Please feel free to add as much content as you want! And yes, I agree the topic has lots of potential. It might be at GA level already. Is there there such a thing as a joint GA nomination? I know it exists for FAC, but I'm not sure I've seen it for GA. Best, Modussiccandi (talk) 13:11, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

I'm not sure...but I know a man who might. RX3, know ye of such a beast? SN54129 13:29, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Not Ritchie, but yes -- co-noms at GAN level are very common. I don't believe the bot can handle them well, though (the bot in general is rather on its last legs, although someone I've promised to ping every time it comes up until he's finished >:) is working on a replacement), so they tend to be informally done by adding a " is co-nominator" to the |note= section of the GAN template. The unofficial status also means they don't get registered properly on WP:WBGAN, but that can be manually done if it's any sort of concern. Vaticidalprophet 13:37, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

@Vaticidalprophet: thanks for that. Sounds like you need a nightstick in your line of work  :) SN54129 13:56, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Ealdgyth is your go-to expert editor on mediaeval history. In terms of GA reviews, one person has to start it, and one person has to take responsibility for closing it. Beyond that, in theory, anything goes. For example, Talk:Elham Valley Railway/GA1 was largely undertaken by other people than the reviewer. Ritchie333 13:45, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks Ritchie333; obvs, I'll do the Pepsi challenge with anyone on (late) medieval history—although not denying it might be a bit of a stretch call Worms late med—but it sounds like an "anything goes" GAN could be a goer! Cheers mate  :) SN54129 13:56, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Yeeees I really really need to get that bot going. As I have said before, the initial 80% of the work is done, it's now the latter 80%.... :) firefly ( t · c ) 14:42, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

• @Ritchie333: by the way, check this out. Right up your alley! :D http://liar.co.uk/ SN54129 14:49, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

As I mentioned them in a recent DYK, go to Queen's first album, track 5 - or side 2 track 1 if you're old school, about 3:20 in. Ritchie333 15:04, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

@Modussiccandi: Hi again! Re. the joint GA nom, would you like to look over the article and see if you think its about ready? I wanted to leave it a few weeks back then, so that it becomes fresh again. What do you think? Hope all's well. SN54129 19:41, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for notifying me! I have to say that I don't feel a joint GA nomination can be justified at this point: you have contributed much more to this article than I have; all I did really is start it with the most important information. You should do the nomination on your own. Regarding the quality of the article, I think it's in good shape for the GA review: it's comprehensive, well sourced, stable, well illustrated etc. I'm glad you took this article to where it is now. Thanks and best,Modussiccandi (talk) 19:46, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

Promotion of Wonderful Parliament

February songs

in friendship

thank you today for the article, introduced: "A return to FAC after a year away. Where does it go, etc. But here's a thing that was brought to GA by the thorough review of T. Riley, of this parish, and should be ready for the next stage. Another—if slightly later—medieval parliament—the King wanted money, both lords and commons refused until he got rid of a few scroungers, he refused, and all hell burst out. Hey, parliament was nearly invited for dinner and poisoned by the King, how's that for a healthy political relationship?"! - Sorry, I missed the FAC, meant to go ... -- Happy 2022! (I was on vacation.) The image was taken in memory, and I remember your tribute for SlimVirgin. "the land is bright and wide." --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:43, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Lovely message, thanks Gerda! SN54129 11:37, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Good one, ScottishFinnishRadish. Kinda glad there are no fair use pics of Tattaglia though  ;) SN54129 14:13, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

"Over all civilisations hovers the shadow of admonishment"¹

(admonished and restricted by arbcom, and never understood why) thank you for taking up the GA review of Prayer for Ukraine, the work of many. The German translation will go to the German Main page tomorrow (with the image taken by me in better times), so if you find things that need change fast a large audience will profit. DYK that we began expanding it, without knowing of the exposure on U.S. television? I have no access to the NYT report about that, - do you? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:47, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Have you got a link to that report, Gerda? I'll have a look, if so. SN54129 10:28, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Yes, it's in the article, found on de, of all places. There are 2 refs for the same fact that all can see, just that NYT has a higher reputation. A friend uploaded the video for me which is not available in Germany (Europe?), so I can confirm that what the 2 refs describe is fact, especially the detail that until after the last announcement, you do not see that the candles spell Kyiv. - Suppressed by whom one wonders. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:38, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

ps: ... and I now I can see the article, which has a less good description, but refers to the two other occasions when the show began without a sketch: 9-11 and the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:44, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Do you have any idea why the bot didn't add it to the list of GAs? - It's on the German MP today (pictured, by me) and tomorrow. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:34, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

¹ Right, on it now. SN54129 14:42, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

March songs

Not sure on what. Prayer for Ukraine is still not among the Music GA (where I'd expect it). - Listening to the charity concert mentioned here. I created the articles of the composer and the soprano. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:11, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Now, you can also listen on YouTube, and more music, the piece by Anna Korsun begins after about one hour, and the voices call "Freiheit!" (freedom, instead of "Freude", joy). Music every day, pictured in songs. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:30, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Yes Gerda, sorry I didn't reply then. I put it under WP:GA > Music > Songs > Pre-1900 songs, which seemed about right... did you have somewhere else in mind? Feel free to move it, if it should be e.g. under Classical compositions. Nice music, very emotive at this time. SN54129 17:47, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you. It's not the typical song, which made me look in the wrong direction, sorry. Next wish: some notice on my talk, - I'm not eager for bot messages but this one is special. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:36, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Robert de Umfraville scheduled for TFA

This is to let you know that the Robert de Umfraville article has been scheduled as today's featured article for April 10, 2022. Please check the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/April 10, 2022, but note that a coordinator will trim the lead to around 1000 characters anyway, so you aren't obliged to do so.

For Featured Articles promoted recently, there will be an existing blurb linked from the FAC talk page, which is likely to be transferred to the TFA page by a coordinator at some point.

WikiJournal Preprints/Loveday, 1458

Hello, we have tried to reach you a few times through email with no response. We would like to remind you that two reviewers have provided their comments on your submission on the talk page. If you intend to continue with the submission process, please make changes directly to the preprint or inform me when you will have the revisions completed by. If we do not see any edits or hear back from you within a week (i.e. after October 6), we will assume that the submission has been abandoned and declined for further consideration. Thank you. OhanaUnited 19:46, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Since we have not heard from you, we will proceed with a declined submission for this paper. OhanaUnited 19:14, 19 October 2022 (UTC)

@OhanaUnited: Many apologies for the lack of involvement: my stats will indicate a general disengagement from WP, not just WJns (for personal, rather than on-wiki reasons, I'm glad too say!)Ever since I got your recent reminder, I've been working on the piece—my only excuse is that most of Hicks' criticisms of the article were thematic rather than just add/remove this that (e.g, per Hicks, I'm adding a new—small—section on the peripatetic nature of the King's household. But I've been working on the thing most of the week, and could have it on your desk tomorrow evening (UTC), If you could hold off 24 hours?BTW, if you do, could you email me a reminder of how to link an anonymous WP account with the academic database? Much appreciated, if so. All the best! SN54129 20:24, 19 October 2022 (UTC)

Ok, we will hold off for 24 hours. Please edit directly on the WikiJournal preprint article. Ideally, you should also reply on the talk page (underneath each peer reviewer's section) to address and respond to the reviewers' comments. As for academic database, please check The Misplaced Pages Library and see if you are able to access resources that way. I don't know how stringent their "10+ edits in the last month" rule is being applied to access, but give it a try. OhanaUnited 20:33, 19 October 2022 (UTC)

We tried to reach you on Wikiversity for a follow-up question. Please reply back asap so we can finalize the process. Thanks. (An email has also been sent to the email address associated with this wiki account.) OhanaUnited 13:46, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Did you get a chance to see our message? We would like a "yes" or "no" answer to our question. Thanks. OhanaUnited 05:53, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

my story today

Thank you today for John Hastings, 2nd Earl of Pembroke, introduced: "A joint nomination between myself and Gog on one of the many curious individuals populating late-medieval England. This chap starts off as a bit of an arse, frankly—a plutocrat forced to work with men of greater ability though less lineage, and who clearly can't decide whether he prefers fighting the French or cutting off relatives, as he spends his time doing both in almost equal portions. But—but—whose story ends with, really, some poignancy. This started off with me piling in my editorial size nine boots some years ago, throwing in everything I had on him, following which it was reviewed for GA by Iazyges of this parish (shout out!). More recently Gog has shown me how it's done—as usual—with a fantastic copy edit."! - I'm still curious about the question above. I like to see the ice age of the "infobox wars" melting, and wonder if you see the same. - My stories on the Main page today are about Johanna Geisler and Huub Oosterhuis. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:59, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Richard Roose scheduled for TFA

This is to let you know that the above article has been scheduled as today's featured article for 26 May 2023. Please check that the article needs no amendments. Feel free to amend the draft blurb, which can be found at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/May 26, 2023, or to make comments on other matters concerning the scheduling of this article at Misplaced Pages talk:Today's featured article/May 2023. I suggest that you watchlist Misplaced Pages:Main Page/Errors from the day before this appears on Main Page. Thanks and congratulations on your work. Gog the Mild (talk) 18:53, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Thanking you Gog. A shame, in a way because the anniversary of his grisly end is in eight days time. Seems a shame to miss it. SN54129 18:57, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

I had missed that. Given the late notice and that the currently scheduled article is also an anniversary I don't think that it will get in for this April. But I have made a discrete enquiry, just in case. Assuming that doesn't happen, I could pull it from this May and you could "book" 15 April 2024 at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/requests/pending? Gog the Mild (talk) 19:20, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Not your fault Gog, I missed it too until now, and I'm sure Louis H. Bean is equally worthy; its creator is FAR more worthy than me for a 1/365 slot. Thanks anyway! 🙂 SN54129 19:40, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Regrettably I got a polite "Thanks, but no thanks." I'll leave it down for the 26th, but if you decide over the next couple of weeks you'd rather go for 15 April 2024, let me know. Gog the Mild (talk) 14:26, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Cheers Gog the Mild, if you could cancel it this year, I'll book it in for next. Also, while you're here, I've got two more lined up for 12 and 27 April, John Minsterworth and the earl of Pembroke. Seems odd to have two so closely connected characters in such a short space of time. I think Pembroke is a death anniversary, but could we save Minsterworth for another time too? Cheers! SN54129 16:42, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Roose pulled from May.

Re Minsterworth, I didn't schedule April, but let us ask. Jim? Gog the Mild (talk) 18:02, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Minsterworth will be pulled too @Gog the Mild: Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:33, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

Thanks Jim. Gog the Mild (talk) 09:39, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

Archive?

Hi mate, just a note that this talk page is getting fairly massive for an old and doddering computer like mine. Would you consider archiving some of it? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 15:49, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
