BBC 100 Women editathon and article creation

Hi Mike. Would you be able to help with completing this list (the 160+ articles created on the day of the BBC 100 Women editathon). I included one of the articles you created, though it was a day before hand (it is at the top). Thanks. Carcharoth (talk) 23:10, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

I'll see what I can do tomorrow, but no promises. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 23:39, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

Template:Infobox civilian attack

Hi, your latest edits to Template:Infobox civilian attack appear to have created some odd side affects on Wounded Knee Massacre with multiple image file names. It also created multiple cordinates in the top-right but I could fix that one by just removing the other instance. Not sure how the multiple images should be fixed, hopefully you can? Cheers KylieTastic (talk) 22:04, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

@KylieTastic: Thanks for the heads-up, and for fixing the coordinates. I've now fixed the image problem in the article. There were two problems: first, the image in the infobox hadn't been included correctly (it was a thumb showing in a different parameter in the infobox); and second, there were multiple images on the Wikidata entry with equal rank. I've fixed the first by removing the image from the article, and the second by giving 'preferred rank' to one image. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 10:02, 22 December 2016 (UTC)

Best wishes for the holidays...

 Season's Greetings
Wishing you and yours a Happy Holiday Season, and all best wishes for the New Year! Adoration of the Kings (Gerard David, London) is my Wiki-Christmas card to all for this year. Johnbod (talk) 09:08, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
@Johnbod: Happy holidays! Mike Peel (talk) 07:00, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
BTW, the painting's entry on Wikidata is now a bit tidier. ;-) It turned out that searching for "david gerard adoration" was a good way to find duplicates! (@David Gerard!) Although, I'm not sure if d:Q18685744, d:Q19912072 and d:Q27058485 are actually three different paintings held in three different museums, or one painting with two copies... Thanks.
