 | I'm going to log out and take a break for a few months. I have little time available for WP right now, and I'm finding that the time I do have is increasingly frustrating and does not spark joy; I'm logging in out of habit, rather than because I want to. I won't write a screed about why, at least not now. Some of this is probably my fault; real-world stress bleeding into on-wiki stress. But it's also due to the way this project seems to be evolving, and the realization that I can't really try to do anything about it when I have so little time to contribute. I'll leave WP email on, but email notifications are going to be turned off. See you on the other side. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:39, 6 September 2023 (UTC) |

Some pics around the concert with the basses, and good luck finding a performance ;) -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:55, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the flowers, Gerda. Having kind of a shitty day (nothing major, just the usual dozen minor annoyances that I seem incapable of handling gracefully), and seeing a new May music section legit helped. Floquenbeam (talk) 17:53, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! - On the bicentenary of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, I remember our recent uplifting choral concert in pictures, on my user page and in my concerts (leading to the two at the church's article). The closest was in the paper. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:44, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- Today is the Feast of the Ascension for which Bach composed his oratorio, - perhaps watch a bit how the closing movement was performed in Bach's church. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:53, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- Magdalena Hinterdobler is on the Main page today, together with an opera that reviewers deemed not interesting and too obscure for our general readers. The soprano thought differently, - listen and see. - Also on the Main page: a TFA by sadly missed Vami_IV. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:27, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
- did you listen and see? - today's story has a pic of a woman holding her cat, a DYK of 5 years ago - the recent pics show 2 orange tip butterflies --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:50, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- I am at a slight disadvantage in that, when I first see a message that links to music on youtube, I can't access it. By the time I get to my home computer, my deteriorating memory and I have forgotten all about it. I've tried marking notifications about your messages as "unread", but then I forget about that and re-read them thinking they're new when I still can't access youtube. The same happens when I'm in a position to read new messages, but have no time to reply to them right then. I really should see someone about this.... --Floquenbeam (talk) 14:58, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
Admin noticeboards revert[edit]
Hello, why did you revert me and not provide an explanation? I don't think people need to know that yamla needs to go shower... Ssendo (talk) 00:15, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- Go troll elsewhere. Floquenbeam (talk) 00:46, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
Hi. I'm sorry for what i've done but for past week he threaten me in my talk page in Persian Wikipedia to doing this exactly. he just repeat and repeat to me when his ban lifted he will deleted this section and more. for rectification of my work i added 2 more live sources. best regards.

- Aha, this is the information I didn't have. The only info I had available was what I could see on en.wiki. I understand the frustration, and we are all imperfect. Just a reminder that WP:EW says that being right is not a defense for edit warring; thanks for this; if you'd done that initially, it would have suddenly made it crystal clear to everyone that you were being productive and they weren't. I'll go tweak my comment at AN3. Cheers. --Floquenbeam (talk) 17:20, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
