Total Solar Eclipse |
Thank you for admitting on a talk page that you were wrong. Cosmologists tell us that such happenings are only negligibly more common than total solar eclipses. Firefangledfeathers ( talk) 14:51, 23 August 2021 (UTC) |

You should not delete this page. Before you delete it, please look at similar pages for US Senators, US Representatives, US Presidents, Oldest Senator, NBA players, sports figures and people. Pay special attention to the bottom purple box of List of the oldest living people (Lists of the oldest people by specific groups). See also: Category:Lists of oldest people. This page helps people interested in longevity and in superlatives. In fact, the NBA page gives some examples of other superlatives (e.g. tallest, shortest) people are interested in (see the bottom purple box of the aforementioned page labeled National Basketball Association statistical leaders). These pages provide helpful information that cannot be found easily elsewhere online. Overall, the list of oldest living US governors may need to be modified or merged with other pages, but the information it contains is genuinely insightful and useful to Wikipedia users and information like it is included throughout Wikipedia.

The discussion on the Original Content discussion board just keeps going back and forth, and I don't see any resolution likely. Would it make sense to have a RfC on the European emigration page, to try to get some resolution, one way or the other, on the use of the numbers in the infobox? Mr Serjeant Buzfuz ( talk) 02:55, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
Thanks. I am a complete néophyte to dispute resolution and don’t have a clear understanding of how the different processes work. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz ( talk) 14:58, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
On 19 September 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Devon Powers, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Devon Powers argues in Writing the Record that 1960s counter-culture music journalists Richard Goldstein and Robert Christgau acted as public intellectuals despite working outside of academia? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Devon Powers. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Devon Powers), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of lists of lists, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page List of current NHL team rosters. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot ( talk) 06:01, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
I noticed your revert of my edits on List of lists of lists. List of current NHL team rosters has 2 entries eats and west - if you want it to point to the dab page use [[List of current NHL team rosters (disambiguation)]].— Rod talk 13:23, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi Pburka
This is a bit embarrassing, can you add the link to Women Writers for the Overkill (novel) AfD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Overkill (novel). The NZ one went fine but I can't get the other two (Novel/Women) to work. If not I assume someone will come along and do it as always seems the way. Dushan Jugum ( talk) 20:32, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

For spotting that the topic might be notable and your diligent analysis that followed — in essence, it could be only your work that prevents the article from being deleted. It goes to show just how important each contributor is to this project, and your time and effort has made a difference. Thank you for this. — The Most Comfortable Chair 05:58, 15 December 2021 (UTC) |
Hi there, pburka, and welcome to Women in Red. It's always good to have experienced editors like you in our project, especially as you have recently created quite a few biographies of women. If you haven't already done so, you might find it useful to look through our Primer for creating women's biographies. Please let me know if you run into any problems or need assistance. Happy editing!-- Ipigott ( talk) 07:41, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

I know consensus building can be very difficult, but your comment was helpful. Also, I just perused some of your great photography after seeing your comment. I really like all of what you've done. I thought the "bear habitat taken from chairlift" was interesting as well. You may also wish you voice support (or opposition) to the RfC if you have a moment. Thanks again! ♥ Th78blue ( talk)♥ 15:36, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

The Women in Red Barnstar | |
Hello, I saw you prevented the Caroline Framke article from being deleted. I created that article years ago and I haven't logged in recently so I would have missed it. I am thankful for your assistance in protecting a notable woman from being unnecessarily deleted. When I saw your talk page I was amazed at all you have contributed to Wikipedia. You have made this a better encyclopedia and I feel compelled to thank you personally. Have a great weekend, Lonehexagon ( talk) 16:55, 27 May 2022 (UTC) |

You removed the PROD with the claim that "book reviews are easily found" but I found no such reviews at a level that meets WP:AUTHOR; what reviews are you referring to? - Aoidh ( talk) 00:03, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. That hasn't even been hinted at being true, so even with these reviews you added, the author fails WP:NAUTHOR, even criteria #3. Books get reviewed, this does not indicate notability for its author and if this is the best claim to notability then it needs to go to AfD. - Aoidh ( talk) 00:21, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

The novel "Woolgathering" should likely be under Woolgathering (novel), as it isn't likely to be the thing most people would be looking for under that term. Most readers would be likely looking for "woolgathering" as in daydreaming, or as in gleaning. Sumanuil. 05:57, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
