Raffaele Contigiani
Good evening Philafrenzy Edwardx, and Whispyhistory and SounderBruce - hope you're all well (and happy precious day to Phil per the above). Unfortunately an issue has been raised at WP:TRM concerning this hook. We're highlighting the rumour that the shape of the building inspired the Star Wars vehicle, but the article itself and the source basically confirm that the rumour is false. Seems like a valid point, so interested in any feedback you guys may have. It's due to run in two days, on the 30th, but we can postpone if there is a need to think about the matter further. Thanks — Amakuru (talk) 21:13, 28 May 2019 (UTC)
- AmakuruEdwardxWhispyhistorySounderBruce A valid objection I think. It was originally lined up for Star Wars Day in which context that might have been OK. The new hook will be "that Raffaele Contigiani's brutalist Hotel du Lac has been seen as symbolic of the modernisation of Tunisia in the 1970s". Philafrenzy (talk) 21:52, 28 May 2019 (UTC)
- OK, I have replaced the text with that, but also pushed it out to Prep 2 (to run in around a week) just in case there are objections to what's happened. Thanks — Amakuru (talk) 08:11, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Raymond Mould
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Raymond Mould requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Ericwg (talk) 03:12, 2 June 2019 (UTC)

- Sound advice always. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:27, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
The article The Cloisters, Salisbury has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No evidence provided that this is a notable building
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Henry Rawlins Pipon Schooles moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Henry Rawlins Pipon Schooles, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia).

When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

- When the word used for the name of a subspecies is the same as the word used for the name of the species it normally indicates that it was the first to be described. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 18:47, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Bibliography
- Hi...Is this any good? Whispyhistory (talk) 18:29, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
- Some of the papers possibly, not the web links. Why don't you add the significant ones, assuming you know which they are, I don't. Other than that I am going to leave it for a while and see if anyone else contributes. TB should definitely have one but I won't start it now. Can you add anything to John Talbot White? Philafrenzy (talk) 20:45, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
- ok...I will look at more tomorrow...well done...TB is a good idea...Whispyhistory (talk) 20:52, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi, this has been in your userspace since 2014. I suggest that you either show that it is notable and move it to article space, or have it deleted. --Randykitty (talk) 12:39, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- I had another look at this and saw that the journal is now included in Scopus, so that it meets NJournals. I have added that to the article, did some cleanup, and moved it to article space. --Randykitty (talk) 09:32, 19 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi..are you able to see if this is suitable/worth a dyk? Last day maybe today> Whispyhistory (talk) 06:52, 24 July 2019 (UTC)

Beard
A colonial John Beard wrote a book which apparently was one of the original sources to the legend of Gabriel Boughton. I can't find his book, A brief account of the rice (rise) and tenor of the Honourable English East India Companies Privileges, together with their losses and their present case ...can you? [2]. Whispyhistory (talk) 21:27, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
- It's described as a "document" and not in the listed sources so I infer that it is an unpublished manuscript. It would certainly be found by Google if it had ever been published under that title. Pity the sources don't say where it is located. Odd since they say it is important. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:40, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
- yes...odd...not mentioned anywhere else. Whispyhistory (talk) 21:58, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
