Congratulations to these great achievements! - Today I remember a singer who impressed me on stage. - You are invited to the peer review after FAC, - in a poll, you could simply mark yes or no for the four open questions. It's an experiment. The piece has its 300th anniversary on Christmas Day, and should be as good as possible by then. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:02, 6 November 2025 (UTC)
I have three biographies on the main page today, miss a fourth one, nominated a fifth, that means little time for other matters. Verdi three times in music. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:19, 18 November 2025 (UTC)
Thank you today for Chagatai Khan, about "the second son of Genghis Khan and Börte (and the third to be brought to FAC). He lived a fairly good life—probably better than any of his brothers—and was the only one to get a state named after him personally; not even Genghis managed that."! - Look, today's image, - she "portrayed" herself with her husband at the end of the table, - would have been good for Thanksgiving ;) - I have a FAC open again, in case of interest. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:32, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
Minor technical question
[edit]Would you be so kind as to tell me how you find the precise number range to do this (i.e., link/highlight a specific text)? I've used {{oldid}} to do something similar, but the way you do it is much better. Cheers, Cl3phact0 (talk) 13:13, 18 November 2025 (UTC)
- Sorry Cl3phact0, missed this; if you mean linking to a specific comment, you click on the timestamp after the signature, and the link is automatically copied to your clipboard. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:44, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you! I was doing it sort of half-manually and couldn't figure out how you were doing it so cleanly. Sometimes the most obvious things are the hardest to see. Cheers, Cl3phact0 (talk) 13:59, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
- PS: I also came across this script while I was trying to solve the riddle. Very handy tool. Might be to your liking. -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 14:01, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
A brownie for you
[edit]| This brownie is for your work on getting Tanguturi Prakasam a DYK! After I had promoted it to GA status, I had thought about working on one myself but couldn't think of any DYK statements, as the one I had originally thought of (his whole Andhra Kesari thing) had already been a DYK quite a few years back. Thanks for working on this! I appreciate it :) — EarthDude (Talk) 06:14, 23 November 2025 (UTC) |
Question from J. David Davis
[edit]Hello.
At the beginning of the page "Grokipedia," the following is written: "[...t]he rest of the entries have been forked from Wikipedia, with some copied nearly verbatim." Shortly thereafter, the article states: "[...s]hortly after launch, several sources described articles as promoting right-wing perspectives, conspiracy theories, and Musk's personal views."
These sound like serious claims, and yet they don't provide any source or citation to verify them. Should these comments be removed if no source or citation can be provided?
And what is the general rule for making statements without providing a source or citation?
Thank you in advance. --J. David Davis (talk) 22:10, 27 November 2025 (UTC)
- Hi J. David Davis! You are looking at the lead section, which per WP:LEAD should be a summary of the contents of the article body. Because of that nature, there is no requirement that the lead section itself have citations, so long as the relevant parts of the body have citations (as explained at WP:LEADCITE). In this case, you may find such citations in the "Content" and "Reliability" sections. Hope that helps! ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 22:14, 27 November 2025 (UTC)
Page on the Beast from the East now completely inaccessible
[edit]Hi. An edit you made a few days ago has left the article for the 2018 United Kingdom cold wave completely inaccessible. It redirects to a page about an unrelated metal album. Please correct this at your earliest convenience. Editor510 drop us a line, mate 19:21, 28 November 2025 (UTC)
DYK Prep 3 hook
[edit]Hello, and I'm sorry if you're the wrong person to ask. @Dclemens1971 started a discussion noting an issue I needed to address in the Deer Creek Fire article (and now is away, unfortunately), so they moved the hook to Prep Area 3. It appears I have addressed the issue, and that you were the main editor promoting hooks into Prep 3. Would it be appropriate for you to remove the "Under discussion" template? I apologize again if I have asked the wrong person or if I have bothered you. Thank you, 🌀Hurricane Wind and Fire (talk) (contribs)🔥 02:07, 2 December 2025 (UTC)
- No worries Hurricane Wind and Fire, the template will be removed (if there are no other issues) by the admin who moves the set from the preparation area to the queue. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 02:34, 2 December 2025 (UTC)
Hi AirshipJungleman29. You tagged this article with {{Close paraphrasing}} but didn't provide an URL. Do you happen to remember what this article is paraphrasing from? — Tenshi! (Talk page) 00:20, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
About Draft:Kazakh-Oirat wars
[edit]Hi AirshipJungleman29, I fixed my grammar and some language mistakes as you have said on my talk page, and i fixed my citation using source and visual editing to fix any error to make it readable. As well, i have added pages that covers the conflict and i could send my proof on discord (username: cynicalschizo) with screenshots and such. So i think it's ready to be moved out of the Draft and into an Arcticle. - Khan of the Universe, and the hoofed animals. HorseBro the hemionus (talk) 10:13, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, it would be best if you send those screenshots. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:47, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
- What is your discord username? uhh i lowk got banned on the server for too much shit posting. HorseBro the hemionus (talk) 08:43, 5 December 2025 (UTC)
- Then you can email me or provide the quotes on Wikipedia HorseBro the hemionus. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 01:33, 8 December 2025 (UTC)

DYK for Ring of Nestor
[edit]On 7 December 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Ring of Nestor, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that scholar Martin P. Nilsson called the Ring of Nestor "a most amazing find", but later doubted its authenticity? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Ring of Nestor. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Ring of Nestor), 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 nominate it.
