sustainable energy

Thank you for quality articles about climate change, such as sustainable energy, Earth and Paris Agreement, based on scientific background, for "Once my energy levels allow, I'll post a more radical proposal to talk." - Femke, you are an awesome Wikipedian!

You are recipient no. 2664 of Precious, a prize of QAI. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:46, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nice to meet you on my talk page Gerda :). Thanks for the gem. Femke (talk) 17:58, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know Shock Brigade Harvester Boris? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:40, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And, amazing, sustainable energy is now already on the Main page! Introduced: "Over the past 2.5 years, this article has been completely rewritten from high-quality sources. I believe it’s now global in scope, reflects the most current accepted knowledge on the topic with balanced coverage of its many aspects, and gives the general reader an understandable overview of a complex topic." - Thank you and team! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:31, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I did not know him unfortunately. It seems he passed just a couple of months after I started becoming active on enwiki. A shame we never got to work together. Femke (talk) 10:14, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

His rules live on, and I'm happy to see you covering his topics (which I couldn't). Raymond Arritt, featured in my edit notice. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:19, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Maybe of interest: [1]. In case you can not access the article I can mail a copy. All the best. --VanBuren (talk) 08:20, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Interesting. In the physical climate system, especially in the cryosphere, I'm noticing a different trend. It seems more likely that there are tipping points in for instance the Greenland ice sheet. Femke (talk) 12:06, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Million Award for David Attenborough

	The Million Award
	For your contributions to bring David Attenborough (estimated annual readership: 3,200,000) to Good Article status, I hereby present you the Million Award. Congratulations on this rare accomplishment, and thanks for all you do for Wikipedia's readers! Reidgreg (talk) 18:54, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar

yes - I love this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Femkemilene/crime_against_significant_digits

I don't get why not everyone is irritated when others use a clearly inconsistent number of digits....

being quite new to wikipedia - (how) can I link to this or copy? Allavion (talk) 13:44, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the barnstar and welcome to Wikipedia! Linking to an essay is similar to linking to an article. Just enclose the title in double square brackets, like [[User:Femkemilene/crime against significant digits]], which shows up like User:Femkemilene/crime against significant digits.

A barnstar for you!

The Barnstar of Diligence

It's extremely hard to appreciate your work on Climate change article without talking a difficult article, whether is it because of Eel on Musk's tweets, misinformation, or the popularity of the topic. Congrats on the article's FA, and your work certainly inspire me to chase the impossible dream of making SpaceX Starship among the best as well. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 13:29, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks :). Appreciate it! Having a few other GAs under your belt will probably help you get your FA star. Femke (talk) 17:44, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"long covid "

(A reference to Talk:Antarctica) Well, that sucks. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 16:27, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it sucks. Can't even scream out in frustration with these weak lungs. Femke (talk) 20:01, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I figure that you won't have time or energy to participate, if I am wrong: I have nominated Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Pali-Aike volcanic field/archive1 for a featured article candidacy but so far it's languishing without much input. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:44, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, the energy I've got goes into the project to detect climate denial and see it removed on non-English Wikipedia. I was planning to focus more on reviewing for GA anyway when I'm properly back. Good luck with the nomination! Femke (talk) 17:16, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

(TPW) Jo-Jo Eumerus, would it help if I reviewed it? Clayoquot (talk Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 02:14, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Clayoquot:Yes, it would. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:23, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
