Hovak Johnston[edit]

Hi, my friend. I remembered our last conversation after it was archived. How are you doing? I was going to ask whether you've made any movement on writing about Hovak Johnston. Like I said, I don't know much about Canadian Inuit history or people (my interest is more in women of Greenland and the American plains), but if you haven't started yet and we are both in the mood for writing about Johnston some time, let me know and I'll try to help. And please keep in touch with whatever new things you are up to; I learn so much reading your engaging, careful, and thoughtful prose. For me, two new things: Gozel Shagulyeva, a Turkmen woman poet, and User:Urve/Poetry in judicial opinions, an exercise in novelty. Maybe we can learn a bit from the latter? Urve (talk) 06:49, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Of course I say this, and only afterwards notice with excitement your writing about North Calotte People. Not Sámi herself, but an important figure in Sámi political representation is Astri Aasen - a biography you may find interesting, and which I wrote and had promoted to GA. Urve (talk) 06:52, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Urve! Finals season hit me like a brick, so I've been occcupied these past two weeks. I haven't really worked on it because of that, with intermittent moments when I got distracted from what I've been supposed to do (my bad). I would love to work together with you sometime, been working on all sorts of things as of late and I've never collaborated with anyone on an article before but that sounds like a lot of fun. That means a lot coming from you, and I can say for sure that I have learned quite a lot from your writing! Great work and congratulations on getting Aasen's article to GA status! Please let me know when you're able to, I just finished my exams last night! Ornithoptera (talk) 00:24, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Kvng:, apologies but please do not move it back at this point. I have just been quite busy with my current affairs, in addition to just some lingering exhaustion with the process surrounding the page. I would appreciate some patience on the matter while I try and finish the page when the time is right. There are still some concerns regarding the layout I would like to address regardless, including how the current intro paragraph wasn't meant to be an intro in the first place, but was repurposed by another user.

It's also written like a news report rather than an encyclopedia article. Much of the text is bound to the current timeframe and will not read well in 6 months time.

New article Esther Tailfeathers[edit]

Hey, Ornithoptera! I've just created Esther Tailfeathers, how would you feel about inserting it into the hook about Bjarne Store-Jakobsen? It's possible we could see if someone would be willing to review fast for a double-target hook, too. Maybe something like

Val

  • Hi @Valereee:! This is outstanding news! It's always great to see more articles on folks who definitely needed them and Tailfeathers was definitely an individual who I would have made an article for if I had the time, so I'm more than delighted to see you have taken up the mantle. I would be more than happy to do a joint nomination but since the hook has been approved I'm a bit unsure as to how to go about that. If you have any idea to that would save us some time. Maybe re-inserting "mythical love story" could be my two cents on adjusting the hook, if you have ever seen Bihttoš for yourself, it is a very fairytale-esque story. Ornithoptera (talk) 19:02, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Happy to reinstate that. I'll nom to DYK and do a QPQ, and I think it might be okay if you'd review it, if you're willing -- you aren't involved with the article but are familiar with the sources/content -- which would get it reviewed quickly. Then we can post to WT:DYK to see if we can get the hook adjusted. Valereee (talk) 19:45, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You seem to be quite familiar with the WT:DYK process so if you would be able to handle that, that would be much appreciated! I would be more than happy to review the Esther Tailfeathers nomination of course.
I am concerned if it may raise some eyebrows to any admin who sees the article and assume it is me reviewing an article that goes in our DYK contribution, but if you are familiar with the procedure around it and see no issue I wouldn't mind doing so. I am familiar with Tailfeathers' contributions so this should be perfectly fine, as long as there is no problems that may arise. Ornithoptera (talk) 19:51, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll explain it transparently, and if anyone objects we can ask for another reviewer. Valereee (talk) 19:55, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good to me, feel free to give me a heads up when you have completed the nomination.
Again I cannot express my delight and I cannot express my gratitude enough that you have taken up the initiative to create Tailfeathers' article. You've done great work with it and I'm more than happy to have done this joint-nomination with you. Ornithoptera (talk) 19:58, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm so glad! Sometimes I am a little reticent to suggest a dual-target because it inevitably means there'll be some effect on the initial target, but I figure if Bjarne is the first link, it probably won't matter much, and the hook is so much stronger that it might even help. :) Thanks for your kind words. I've completed the nom at Template:Did you know nominations/Esther Tailfeathers and asked a question at WT:DYK I pinged you to. Valereee (talk) 20:56, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hey, Ornithoptera! A reviewer at the nom has a question about how the film is described at the three articles. As it is apparently not available for me to screen, could you take a look at those three sections and see if you can make any needed corrections? Valereee (talk) 13:19, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi Valereee! I've tried my best to respond to the questions accordingly, seems like quite a bit has been discussed so I've done my best to address CMD's questions but if I've missed anything I have left it open to address any outstanding questions.
    If you need a good summary from an academic source just in case, there is Elsewheres of Healing, which has been a bit of a hassle to link for some weird reason. You are welcome to adjust the sources to include it if needed. Ornithoptera (talk) 17:02, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Oh, thank you! I had tried to get to that before and couldn't figure out why it seemed to be some sort of dead link! Very interesting! Valereee (talk) 14:47, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It was really weird honestly. I accessed the article through google scholar and the link to the article is a link to the pdf on the site, but for some reason using the link results in a 404 error no matter where you access it from. I have no idea the mechanics behind such an error like that but it's been pretty consistent. Regardless the HTML link seems to be more stable but I wish there was a more accessible PDF version that we could use instead. Ornithoptera (talk) 19:09, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2024 SA election forks[edit]

Hello, I see you have created two new articles 2024 South African provincial elections and Results of the 2024 South African general election. Could you please adequately explain your exact reasoning for doing this? We have had the results for the SA election articles just under a section for all the past election articles, so I don't see why this would be any different. Please reply to my comment on the talk page of the Results of the 2024 South African general election article. Thank you. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 20:11, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, 2024 South African provincial elections. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Results of the 2024 South African general election. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Results of the 2024 South African general election. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 14:55, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
