::@[[user:filelakeshoe|filelakeshoe]] - Thank you for your help, everything in the article is verifiable. From my today's point of view, it would deserve a more professional (musicological) rewrite, as I tried to write not only encyclopedic entry, but also an interesting story of life and work .. and I'm just a fan or admirer of Janáček's work, not musical scientist. Thank you again, it's really nice to hear from you again :) [[User:Vejvančický|Vejvančický]] ([[User_talk:Vejvančický|talk]] / [[Special:Contributions/Vejvančický|contribs]]) 07:47, 4 September 2023 (UTC) |

Hello! Voting in the 2022 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 12 December 2022. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

- I'm off most of time. Family, work etc.. you know. But recently I joined again and I say or write something from time to time. I can't believe that I started 15 years ago :) Your work and attitude is still impressive Gerda. Old encyclopedist school, I'd say (no offense intended, please!).

- thank you, love it ;) - I stepped away from DYK because it's too new school for me. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:41, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
