July thanks

On today's Main page, you can find a cantata that Bach first performed 300 years ago, and an iconic saxophonist from East Germany. Also: a bit about the history of QAI on my talk. Thank you for being part of it! A new member designed a user box that I adopted. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:45, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nice to hear from you again Gerda. I've been busy nominating more articles for GA and have recently become a new page reviewer to help out with the backlog. Hope to be submitting some articles during the summer: I've had a couple of projects hanging around for a while. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 19:54, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. The project of those who recently died keeps me quite busy these days, - the saxophonist was nominated only yesterday, and was not through when I went to bed. Now I have a bishop in the same position ;) - The line-up of nominations is at WP:ITNN, and they expect 3 supports. Can you perhaps check, under 11 July, just look for my name. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:07, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know much about ITN, and wonder whether my commenting would cause more harm than good. I hope for the best, though. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 20:13, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Understand, and they all made it ;) - While today's DYK highlights Santiago on his day, I did my modest share with my story today, describing what I just experienced, pictured. I began the article of the woman in green. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:16, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Today Jahrhundertring, and I just listened to Götterdämmerung from the Bayreuth Festival (pictured), - the image (of a woman who can't believe what she has to see) features also on the article talk. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:28, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Saberyoda (05:31, 31 July 2023)

Hi! Is it possible for you to review my last two changes? I don't know if I'm overediting, just for the sake of it.

Thanks --Saberyoda (talk) 05:31, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They look generally fine, but be sure to check that your grammatical changes confirm with the tense of the sentence. We do have a manual of style, which is worth checking out. Thanks, Schminnte (talk • contribs) 10:38, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of Blood on the Floor (Turnage)

The article Blood on the Floor (Turnage) you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed.

DYK for Solo Per Due

On 5 August 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Solo Per Due, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Solo Per Due claims to be the smallest restaurant in the world and only serves meals for two? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Solo Per Due. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Solo Per Due), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Your GA nomination of Blood on the Floor (Turnage)

The article Blood on the Floor (Turnage) you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Blood on the Floor (Turnage) for comments about the article, and Talk:Blood on the Floor (Turnage)/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Thank you for all your work on this @Aza24. I'll have a look at the comments you left before attempting FA. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 10:22, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you aren't too busy

Hello. Greetings. Do review this page Vince Dao. It has already been proof read by an admin. I'll appreciate your input and review. Cheers. Wallclockticking (talk) 08:09, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I don't currently review new pages on request. I assure you that our new page patrol team will review the article in time. Thank you for your contributions and sorry I can't help. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 10:21, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help with Draft:Lillian (book)

I've added a reference and sources to the British Library and WorldCat info. I would very much appreciate if the review could be done soon because the recent death of the author is an opportunity to get information about him into the public domain.
