2022[edit]
Hello! Looking ahead to next year, what is your opinion of using simple cites in the deaths list? Also, should we start the year with deaths separate from the main article to prevent it from becoming too large? Lastly, I think a listing of the Supreme Court set up much like the governors and lieutenant governors is important and informative, but it would be something new, as it currently doesn't exist and it's not in previous years. I'd like to achieve a consensus on these items. Looking forward to your input. Thanks! PhillyHarold (talk) 15:57, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

Previewing edits[edit]
Hi. Thanks for contributing a cited award to this article. I see from its recent edit history that you had some trouble making chances to the table, which can happen to anyone. Tables can be tricky to manage with all the formatting. You can preview your edits to check whether they're correct before publishing them, that way you don't have to make multiple edits changing and reverting the same thing. The "Show preview" button is right next to the "Publish changes" button, as shown here: H:PREVIEW. Lapadite (talk) 23:33, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
ITN recognition for 77th British Academy Film Awards[edit]

If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. Stephen 05:03, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
Invitation to join New pages patrol[edit]
Hello Matt Campbell!
- The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
- We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
- Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
- Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
- If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.
Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

Hello[edit]
What's the point in having duplicate images in the article? I see no point in it, in very limited circumstances do you have repeated images if their are, already pre-existing pictures which fit the bill. CtasACT (talk) 03:46, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
Why did you revert all of my edits in 1987 deaths???[edit]
All of my edits were valid. Leave them alone. Braintic (talk) 01:42, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- They were not valid and we don't include the cause of death on those articles! Matt Campbell (talk) 02:14, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- How about looking at the description at the top of the page:
- Name, age, country of citizenship at birth, subsequent country of citizenship (if applicable), reason for notability, CAUSE OF DEATH (if known), and reference. You don't get to make up your own rules. I am formatting these pages in preparation for incorporating them into the 1990+ set. You are a vandal and will be reported.
- Braintic (talk) 02:18, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- I didn't see that part, but removing the date of birth wasn't really necessary. Matt Campbell (talk) 02:23, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- If you did not see it, on what did you base that comment? Did you just invent it, and who is "we"?
- As I said, I am converting these to the format of post 1989 pages for incorporation into the main list. Those pages show AGES, not death dates. I am not just removing death dates, I AM ADDING AGES AT DEATH.
- Leave these alone. Silence will not be sufficient. Reply to say you understand if you don't wish to be reported. Braintic (talk) 02:28, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- I understand! Matt Campbell (talk) 02:31, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
