Hi, Bolyen, after looking at the message you left on MCE89's talkpage, I glanced at your most recently created article (I find looking at somebody's content is the best way to get to "know" them), and I had a few questions about John Braham (MP). Could you tell me how you made this article? GreenLipstickLesbian💌🧸 10:57, 1 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@GreenLipstickLesbian (talk page watcher) Out of curiosity I looked at this page, which has two print sources, and found that the online History of Parliament has now caught up with this chap and given him a death date and an alternative spelling. I've tweaked the article and will make a redirect from Brame. PamD 14:08, 1 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @PamD, thanks for updating the article, but could you let Boleyn answer this one? To the best of my knowledge, The History of Parliament source you and I both found is an unmodified excerpt of the first print source. [1] GreenLipstickLesbian💌🧸 18:51, 1 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@GreenLipstickLesbian I was expecting them to reply, but just chipping in. As the online source gives him a definite death date, I assume Boleyn's source was less complete. PamD 19:16, 1 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I would probably have used Google Books, I usually use that and/or HoP. Boleyn (talk) 19:05, 3 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, well I can't find that book on Google books. Can you check your search history from around that time? GreenLipstickLesbian💌🧸 19:08, 3 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If it helps, there was nothing wrong with your articles before. If the answer to my question "Could you tell me how you made this article?" is "I messed up and told ChatGPT to make one for me, I won't do it again", that's completely okay and we can drop this matter right here, right now.
