—Kusma (talk) 00:02, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
The article Archievenblad has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Annales des Maladies de la Peau et de la Syphilis
Hi ... I thought it a good to idea to dyk this.. Annales des Maladies de la Peau et de la Syphilis... but I can't expand it any further. I think it published on something called syphilization. Any ideas please or should I leave it? Hoping you might sort it.. see this [1]. Whispyhistory (talk) 19:34, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- I would have thought you knew more than me, but syphilization is either getting syphilis or the act of inoculating against it (sometimes noted as an obsolete usage), which the article you linked seems to debunk. You are on the right track with the publication history and notable papers published in the journal being the main content of such an article. What about that a paper (by Bouley) published in the journal proved that syphilis can't be innoculated against? (If I understand what they are saying correctly) Philafrenzy (talk) 20:49, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you... I was trying figure Bouley out... will look again. Whispyhistory (talk) 04:24, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

The article Mohammad Ghadami has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
The "legal dispute" sources no longer exist, and archives reveal that they report someone with a similar but not the same name, over a single news cycle; the tax and company stuff is primary sourced; the damages source is primarily about someone else; there's little to no evidence that these are all the same one person; and the one person whom I can find only gets mentioned as someone else's parent. This "biography" is a composite from incidental mentions that don't connect the dots.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Brighton meetup
Hi Phil, as you organised the first one a few years ago, I thought you might be interested in a meetup in Brighton on 3 February 2024. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 11:42, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks. I recall the credibility of the first one was damaged by a prankster who wished to bring a goat. I hope the second one with have only those with two legs. Philafrenzy (talk) 11:53, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
- So I see. I very much doubt Wetherspoons allow four-legged visitors in their pubs. If we decamp and go for a walk and somebody wants to bring their goat I don't think it should be too much of a problem! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:08, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
- They can tie their goat up outside as cowboys did at saloons in the old west. Philafrenzy (talk) 15:45, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
- Wetherspoon Pubs FAQs says
We do not permit dogs or other animals in our pubs, hotels or in external areas which belong to, or are managed by, us. This includes beer gardens, car parks and outside pavement areas.
and goats fall within "other animals". As regards the "outside pavement areas" bit: at an Oxford meetup earlier this year, Maproom was asked to take their dog outside, and there was no complaint when we used an outside table. Wetherspoons managers vary: maybe one of you remembers an Oxford meetup when we were joined by a WMUK staff member with a guide dog (black Lab), and the whole group of us was asked to leave because of the dog, despite our protestations that it was a guide dog. Anyway, we went to the other Wetherspoons in Oxford, who didn't mind. --Redrose64 🦌 (talk) 22:47, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

| Venu Chitale received >100,000 page views yesterday... article inspired by your activities and suggestions. Whispyhistory (talk) 21:16, 29 December 2023 (UTC) |
- Thank you kindly but the edit history suggests that you did most of the work. Very gratifying either way. (I have some articles that get on average 1/2 a visit per day. Perhaps people view them with one eye shut? They need a Google doodle too.)
- Modest... If I recall, it began with a London conference on WWII Indian women, or something similar ... Whispyhistory (talk) 21:41, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

The article Charles Peterson (philatelist) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-notable per WP:GNG or WP:ANYBIO. Who cares about this guy? Is there any significant, independent coverage? Merely signing a document is no evidence of independent notability.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --Animalparty!
