Precious

Victorian era good articles

Thank you for quality articles for the front page around history of Wales and beyond, such as Victorian era, Charles Edward, Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha and Curriculum for Wales (2022–present), for reviewing good articles, for a clear user page (with an infobox present from the start in 2017 and the present one a delight!) - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

You are recipient no. 2903 of Precious, a prize of QAI. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:42, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you Gerda Arendt :)--Llewee (talk) 13:08, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
You are welcome ;) - reading the article, where would you like comments, - here or on the article talk? Should I make changes, such as adding a comma, and you revert if you don't like, or should I just propose? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:08, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
@Gerda Arendt (a) I think the article talk would be the best place to keep a record. (b) Whichever you would prefer. Llewee (talk) 16:25, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

Your reversal here really surprises me. How important is it to you personally to leave that question open and unclear for the reader? On the talk page you only wrote that you consider the matter trivial. Yet you continue to act to have it your own way. Have you done so much (good) work on that article now that you need a break before you can be accused of ownership there? Or at least I suggest you let the well-motivated little "trivial" input of another editor or two slip through while you are so very heavily involved there. It is not our purpose at Wikipedia to randomly go through articles and zap relevant wording at will. SergeWoodzing (talk) 09:10, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Please don't be personally unpleasant about me. I have work do now. I'll talk to you about this issue later.--Llewee (talk) 09:57, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

FA!

story · music · places

Congratulations to your FA! - When should he appear for TFA? On his birthday? Or another day important in his life? Or just soon? Should I help with the nomination or do you want to do it yourself? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:56, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Thank you @Gerda Arendt, at the start of the year I was naively hoping that the article would be ready to appear on the 70th anniversary of his death in March this year or the 140th anniversary of his birth in July. Obviously it's now to late for that, I would be happy for it to appear as soon as possible. I doubt much benefit would be gotten from waiting till his next birthday. Although, isn't there a requirement that nothing similar has appeared there for a while beforehand? Llewee (talk) 20:54, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
Thank you! - Yes, there's this requirement, but that is included in "as possible" ;) - I'll try that. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:08, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
