@Display name 99: Hi Display name 99, I'm MagicatthemovieS. You might remember me - you passed my nomination of the Gospel of Jesus' Wife as a good article. Since we work well together, I was wondering f you might like to check out two articles which I recently nominated to reach good article status - Gerald Ford assassination attempt in Sacramento and Tawana Brawley rape allegations. Let me know if you are interested in either article or both of them.
Thanks, ~ MagicatthemovieS
Andrew Jackson revisited
Undid your reversion because it appears to have been performed in error—the passage in question concerns Andrew Jackson, not John C. Calhoun.
question re draft
hi. what do you think of this? Draft:Timeline_of_the_Syrian_Civil_War_(September–December_2019). --Sm8900 (talk) 16:01, 24 December 2019 (UTC)
- Sm8900, I think it's mostly okay. But in my view it suffers from the same problem as the timeline article, which is that it is numerous extremely short paragraphs that make for tedious reading. I recommend condensing these. But in general, I think it's fine. I hope you understand that the level of detail that an article on only a few months of the war can have is not going to be the same as a timeline on article on a full 8.5 year war. Display name 99 (talk) 19:14, 24 December 2019 (UTC)
- I appreciate your reply. thanks!!! re condensing the paragraphs, that sounds fine. I will give that a try.
- by the way, re your last point, I totally understand. but I would also assume that, in some ways, an article that focuses on only a few months, could provide more detail about that specific time period itself, than the main article could, wouldn't it? again, I really appreciate your reply above. thanks. --Sm8900 (talk) 19:30, 24 December 2019 (UTC)
- hi. happy holidays!!! I posted a link in the article history of the main timeline for this topic, to let others see and review the draft. I don't know, it just seemed like a good idea. I enjoy getting a little discussion now and then, anyway. I hope all's well with you. thanks!! --Sm8900 (talk) 14:54, 26 December 2019 (UTC)

Coronavirus information
I'm well aware of how Misplaced Pages works, thank you! The problem here is that someone has unilaterally decided to change the source of data from Worldometer to JHU. In my haste, I didn't notice. MattSucci (talk) 05:00, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- MattSucci, I've noticed that the source continues to change back and forth. JHU had been the source until it was switched out. I'm not sure why. It would be easier for everybody if we just use the same source consistently. Anyhow, please consider the matter over. Display name 99 (talk) 14:20, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
