DYK for Sidney Hill

edit

On 20 February 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Sidney Hill, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

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.

Gricharduk, Thank you for the article about Jane Ingham. Not only did it hone my review skills, I learned about a fascinating woman biologist and got to work with a responsive and intelligent nominator. You took this article from non-existent to GA this year, which is an amazing feat! Great job, and I hope we get to work together again. Eewilson (talk) 07:27, 13 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi, Eewilson, Thank you very much and what a lovely person you are. None of the above would have been possible without your thorough review, editing, advice, and hard work. I consider you joint author of the article as you improved it so much during the review. It has been a joy to work with you and you have taught me so much over the last week. Wikipedia is very lucky to have you. Have a great day, Gricharduk (talk) 08:41, 13 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Grichard, Thank you! I will take a bit of credit, but you have been the one who took on this project and ran with it. You are now the Tupper-Carey expert. I only know the bare minimum! Eewilson (talk) 08:45, 13 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

"Topicons"

edit

Hi, Gricharduk! Did you know that you can put a topicon on your userpage for each of your good articles, DYKs, and featured articles? Just a nice little way to reward yourself and brag a bit. See Template:GA user topicon, Template:DYK user topicon, and Template:FA user topicon. —Eewilson (talk) 07:39, 13 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi Eewilson Thank you very much. No, I did not know about this template (there is so much I don't know) so I am going to add this to my userpage. Gricharduk (talk) 08:36, 13 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

TFA blurb quick review

edit

Hi, Gricharduk! Symphyotrichum lateriflorum has achieved FA status, and I have nominated it to be on the main page in a Today's Featured Article. A few people need to read the blurb and make suggestions if needed, and Support or Oppose, whichever applies. Would you be willing to take a look at the blurb, make any suggestions, comment if you have any, etc.? It is at this link: Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/Symphyotrichum lateriflorum. Eewilson (talk) 05:27, 15 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Morning Eewilson, of course! I will take a look now (it's a fantastic article). Sorry for my recent lack of communication, my current work project is getting in the way of what I love most - editing here :) I hope you are well, Gricharduk (talk) 05:45, 15 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
Thank you! Internet outages are affecting me. Random cable modem/router reboots that began on Tuesday when Comcast, our ISP, had an outage in various areas across the nation. I suspect they are sending out packets that my "older" modem doesn't like. It's very annoying. :) Eewilson (talk) 07:35, 15 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
