Long time no see

Hey, it was good to see your name pop up again today. I took a wiki break at the end of last year and I don't think I've seen you around since I returned in January (I think). -- ZooBlazer^talk 04:38, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

@ZooBlazer: Hi again! Essentially, the reason I've been kinda inactive since December (briefly returned in the first 3 days of 2023, but that was mostly for my solo projects, like my mockup of the Spider-Man article for FA) is probably because my interest in the MCU fell apart...but I do plan to be more active starting now.

Congrats on getting MCU Thanos to GA, and best wishes on having your DYK featured on the Main Page someday (I think it'll be the first, since I nominated MCU Spidey and that was put on hold until GA review completed -- you know how that ended up). — SirDot (talk) 10:57, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

I'm glad to finally have Thanos promoted. It was a lot of work, but I got an experienced reviewer. Also one that had only seen a few MCU movies, which I think was good for the article to have that perspective in the review.

I'm working on some non MCU articles while also wanting to get a few more MCU pages eventually to GA, although now my goal is to get Thanos to FA. Let me know if you want to try again with the Spidey GAN. We have Thanos as kind of a template now I guess.

The MCU hasn't been my favorite lately, but my interest is still there overall. I think the delays will be a good thing for quality. I've been looking forward to Secret Invasion since it was announced, so I really hope it's good. -- ZooBlazer^talk 15:05, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

I'm currently working on the Infinity Stones article to prepare for GAN to get Thanos to a good or featured topic (hopefully) along with the Blip article, which I recently nominated. Then I'm going to continue work on the Avengers article to maybe get that to GA and then hopefully a good topic with the 4 movies and their accolades articles.

Then I'll have time to focus on the Spidey article if you still have interest in getting it to a GA or even a FA. -- ZooBlazer^talk 22:27, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

Good plans, Zoo. However, getting Spidey to FA is way too early imo, we should wait until Holland's second trilogy (whenever that begins) and the more information it'll bring. — SirDot (talk) 02:07, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Maybe it's too soon, but I also think getting to FA before that wouldn't hurt. Mostly because it's less work for us to incorporate that new info if the page is already in great shape. But we have to get it to GA first anyway, so we'll see how good of shape it is then before worrying about FA.

I'm gonna nominate Thanos soon for FAC, so I'll gain some experience with it, but I'm waiting for more comments on the peer review first just to make sure it's not gonna get torn up in the FA review. Hoping to get it as the featured article of the day on August 1 since it's the anniversary of Josh Brolin's debut. Otherwise I'll wait until maybe his birthday next year to try. -- ZooBlazer^talk 02:24, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Okay then for Spidey, good luck on Thanos, mind linking the peer review? Anyways, without getting myself derailed on this delayed response, getting an article to FA is a mighty task! It's been long months since I started my "comics Spider-Man for FA" project, still being optimistic for it to be featured on August 10, 2023. — SirDot (talk) 05:36, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Here is the peer review. I think Thanos is in pretty good shape thanks to my GA reviewer. But we'll see once multiple extra eyes have a look in the FA process. Don't forget the refs in your comic Spidey project. Consistent format, italicize titles, and MOS:TITLECAPS. I did a lot of cleaning up a couple weeks ago for Thanos. -- ZooBlazer^talk 05:55, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Maybe we should skip spidey and get Marc Spector ready for GA . It just needs a couple sections expanded and then a thorough c/e -- ZooBlazer^talk 06:03, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

@ZooBlazer: Sure, the Moon Knight article looks good so far (good job!). Ignoring my bias towards Spidey, I can see MK becoming a GA if the aforementioned sections are expanded and its copyedited. Spidey can be worked over the summer. — SirDot (talk) 06:46, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, I think summer is good for Spidey. It got messy since the GAN, so there's exra work to be done, but it'll be in great shape afterwards, and probably close to ready for FAC. -- ZooBlazer^talk 06:55, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Hey, hope all is going well in life for you. If you ever plan to return long term, let me know and we can dive back into the Spidey article to get it ready for that elusive GAN. -- ZooBlazer^talk 21:54, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

@ZooBlazer, yeah I'll let you know, I'm just sporadically editing once in a while. — SirDot (talk) 17:25, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
