In The News nomination[edit]

I have nominated this article for inclusion as a recent death on Wikipedia's Main page. This is done at Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates. Articles have be of a good quality to be used there. A look there now will show that some work is needed. Can editors please help? HiLo48 (talk) 07:48, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect nobody has looked here since I wrote the above. @Vikram maingi:, @Lugnuts:, @JennyOz:, @120.88.166.60: - Can you folk help at all please? HiLo48 (talk) 22:37, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@HiLo48: thanks for the ping - I'll try to help with this if I get some time later today. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 07:10, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

HiLo48 Hello HiLo, sorry I haven't been able to get back to this. I was hoping for more obits etc and I'd started gathering a bunch of refs from Trove but then had device failure. I'm now on a spare device but can't access my notes. Thought spare part would have arrived by now. CNs have now been added and I guess I'll start again at Trove tonight or tomorrow and see if I can address any. Pity the nom might be stale by time CNs are dealt with. JennyOz (talk) 05:42, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Jenny. Yes, I was thinking the same about missing the nom, but on the plus side, the article has been greatly improved. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 06:46, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

G'day Lugnuts, Thanks. It did make it to Main Page RDs - not sure though why that appearance wasn't added to this talk page or why HiLo48 didn't get their nom recognition - maybe because it was there for less than 24 hours? Anyway as you say the article is greatly improved. Thanks to all who helped. JennyOz (talk) 07:54, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have learnt to not always expect sensible, rational things to happen at ITN. It's just a good thing this nomination got up. Thanks everyone. HiLo48 (talk) 11:34, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
