Blackbeard

Hey Parrot of Doom, I took this out as being speculation from a source I didn't see as very reliable (despite the publisher). That said, you definitely know more about Blackbeard than I do, so please feel free to revert me if you disagree. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 19:28, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

I don't have the book but it may be useful to add it to the further reading section, or to initiate a discussion on the article talk page. Parrot of Doom 11:36, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Morgan

Hi PoD, I hope all is well. Just a brief note to see if you had finished your excellent review of the Henry Morgan article, or whether there was still more to come? No rush if there is more - I just don't want to end the PR if you still have comments to make. Many thanks once again for all your work on the article so far. All the best, The Bounder (talk) 11:21, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

Sorry, I still have comments to make but I'm busy with work. If you don't hear anything by tomorrow midnight then I won't be able to get around to it. Parrot of Doom 12:35, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

That's great, many thanks. You have been hugely helpful so far, and you have my thanks. All the best, The Bounder (talk) 13:23, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

Sorry, I just haven't had time. I hope you're successful, the article needs quite a bit more work (in my opinion) but you're heading in the right direction for a very good article. Parrot of Doom 22:55, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Thanks again for all your help. Hopefully the FA process will wrinkle out any further problems in the article. All the best, The Bounder (talk) 06:51, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Happy Saturnalia!

John Bingham, 7th Earl of Lucan for TFA

• Hi Parrot. This is just a friendly note to let you know that the John Bingham, 7th Earl of Lucan article has been scheduled as today's featured article for December 18, 2016. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 18, 2016. Thanks! — Chris Woodrich (talk) 02:06, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
  • Parrot, you're welcome to do this one if you like. I see below you're busy; no rush. - Dank (push to talk) 18:35, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
    • Thanks, I did the best I could for now, I'm not sure if it's short enough. Parrot of Doom 23:28, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
      • Looks great, but it's 1259 so far; anything between 1000 and 1200 works for me. - Dank (push to talk) 18:26, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
        • I condensed one part; if that works for you, we're now at 1146 and good to go. - Dank (push to talk) 15:17, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
          • Sigh. I probably have an obligation to mention that there's been an objection to some of your wording in tomorrow's TFA text at WP:ERRORS ... but that doesn't mean you're under any obligation. It might be best for us to wait and see if anyone else chimes in with an opinion. OTOH, if you agree with some of what's said there, or if you just want to make changes, you're welcome to edit the TFA text. - Dank (push to talk) 22:24, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
            • Sorry, I thought you were an admin. Let me know if you want me to change any of the TFA text. - Dank (push to talk) 16:21, 18 December 2016 (UTC)
