Hello, I'm
Gologmine. I noticed that you recently
removed content from
Khorgo without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate
edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use
your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on
my talk page. Would you stop removing my contents? next time giving you more severe warning

hi i wanted to ask please recreate my page. i am editing it and making it encyclopedic. please I have already done a lot of work on it and why did you delete it? kindly do guide me whats wrong in it so that I can correct — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amyhere ( talk • contribs) 20:40, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
Hello, please take a look at the vandalism taking place in the article Chucky (character). A bunch of IP addresses keep vandalizing it and it seems like I’m the only user trying to revert the edits back to the sourced version, although you did help and edit but the page needs to be protected. Thanks. Editsvi ( talk) 02:42, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
Hello. A request to take another look and hopefully pass Spiggotr6's article on this artwork which hangs in the United States Capitol as its official portrait of Abraham Lincoln. The painting is sourced to the House of Representatives and Capitol collection and also has a Smithsonian source. One gallery or museum source is usually enough to pass a visual artwork, and this page has several. This has become a major painting of Lincoln due to its prominence of being displayed in the Capitol and as part of the Capitol collection (as Lincoln's official portrait). Thanks.

I am sorry about modifications without prior announcement at the talk page, I should have put this to discussion page, I have listed the proposal here: Wikipedia_talk:Good_article_nominations#Request for comments on clarifying the process of retracting the reviewer and returning the nominated article to backlog Maxim Masiutin ( talk) 13:03, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
If you are in a situation where you absolutely cannot continue to review the article, please contact the nominator. Consider helping them find a new reviewer. If necessary, leave a note on the GA nominations discussion page.and thought "I think not. The language is not clear. It may not apply in my case. I'll invent a completely new process instead." Why would I forget that you proposed it, knowing that it comes from someone who did not read the page properly in the first place? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 ( talk) 13:24, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
I just wanted to encourage you to consider expanding our coverage at Mongolian State Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet. While this New York Times piece may have been wrong about the first Mongolian Opera, it probably does have some quality reporting on other Mongolian operas and the activities of this important theatre that could be used to expand that article and could be used in your article on Mongolian theatre. Best. 4meter4 ( talk) 14:07, 18 November 2023 (UTC)

"the following are usually not linked: ... The names of subjects with which most readers will be at least somewhat familiar
Colonies Chris ( talk) 20:05, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
And a similar consideration applies to linking the publisher - is the link helpful to the reader? The default is always to not link. We add links when - and only when - they are likely to help a reader understand the article or, in the case of a citation, to help them locate the source. This is a discussion that was settled more thah a decade ago. Colonies Chris ( talk) 21:43, 6 December 2023 (UTC)A good question to ask yourself is whether reading the article you're about to link to would help someone understand the article you are linking from.

Hello, the Chinese Legalism article is under construction (previously I had it constituted of the figures, but the idea was to leave the larger figure articles to their figure articles). I will try to streamline the writing, since you left the tag, let me know if you otherwise have a particular critique. Keeping in mind that it is of course under construction. FourLights ( talk) 07:14, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
Given that the page needs more work regardless, I hope you might find time to consider the section Creel's branches of the Fajia, which I have assembled into an introduction, if you find time to comment whether you find it contextual, or otherwise too detailed. Or if the section "the morality of Han Fei" should be left to the Han Feizi page or not at all; I intend to create a Shang Yang related section, whose figure is a stand in (they are intended to be general sections, not figure sections). Thanks. I do appreciate your having visited to provide an updated critique in the form of the tag if nothing else, the previous tag calling for an "expert" would have suggested that I simply have no idea what I am talking about. Suffice to say, while others assist with minor edits, I am it's responsible writer. FourLights ( talk) 17:31, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
Hey there, wanted to reach out to ask if you'd be interested in taking a look at the Israeli citizenship law currently at FAC?

A long time ago, you said the Mars Society article is not up to FAC standards yet. I've made several attempts to polish the prose and ensure text-source integrity, but, unfortunately, the article is still pretty short as it is hard to find additional sources on the topic.

You made claims on the Milan Tepić talk page without reading the sources, so can you point out to me where those six of them are in the article?

Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, people's rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension.

Hello gain AirshipJungleman29, I am not a fan of turning articles into one paragraph stubs with an interpretation of WP:OVERSECTION. I prefer that unrelated ideas and paragraphs are in appropriate sections. They make the separate ideas easier to find. Bruxton ( talk) 03:35, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
too short and incomplete to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject. A stub also does not qualify for DYK. But I do not think Hanging Stone is incomplete and I think sections are helpful for our readers. I can see that you often invoke oversection like on this other DYK article: Phyllis Boyens but the sections were restored by an admin. I helped with the Boyens article so I saw this. We all have different styles so I thank you for considering and I hope that we can always discuss changes in the future. Bruxton ( talk) 14:59, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

As you know, the 2023 picture is from the Abel Fest in Köthen, celebrating the tercentenary of Carl Friedrich Abel, a viol virtuoso, composer and concert organiser in London (together with Bach's youngest son), born on 22 December 1723 in Köthen, where the new catalogue of his works was introduced, - my story today. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 21:25, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
I have a DYK on the Main page as you better than anybody else, but my story would be different, about Figaro, - this Figaro. The conductor described it as entertaining, - please check, singer and conductor can be seen commenting and in action. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 17:04, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
Soprano Tamara Milashkina is on the Main page, and I summarised in today's story. The RD appearance will get her a 5-digit viewcount over the days, I guess. I have to decide if I'll put more effort into it (length or GA) to make it DYK also. I would if I knew that any from the story would be acceptable, but not if in the end we say that she was a librarian before she became a singer, - not fair to her very specific achievements, and a waste of my lifetime.

Hi AirshipJungleman, in line with Hog Farm's comment in Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations/Archive 30#GAR notifications, I believe it would be appropriate to leave Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/Great Salt Lake/1 open until a week after my notifications.

Countering your point of "main page is based on article quality not relevance": yes, I mentioned that. The article for the Battle of Stalingrad is pretty well written. Countering your point of "we need diversity in article topic": There isn't a single battle listed on the February 2nd OTD, I fail to see how that would be a problem.

Hello, I am afraid I only just noticed your comment in a peer review done on the Chinese Legalism page. While I've retracted some work to the sandbox, and I would not suggest more work is not needed in general to streamline and simplify, you mentioned the encyclopedia britannica, which contains a basic three elements view. I have put together a basic three elements view myself, which I admit is not basic but instead a completely comprehensive overview including it's broader academic history. It is only presently lacking in that it does not include every example of it to ever occur. If you would like to provide feedback, then thanks.
I could certainly streamline it more later but will require significant work and sources seeing as it's broader examples merely crib the Oxford with it's past references. FourLights ( talk) 17:36, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Our current leader is newcomer
Generalissima (
submissions), who has one FA on
John Littlejohn (preacher) and 10 GAs and 12 DYKs mostly on New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures. Here are some more noteworthy scorers:
As a reminder, competitors may submit work for the first round until 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February, and the second round starts 1 March. Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round; currently, competitors need at least 15 points to progress. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges ( Cwmhiraeth ( talk · contribs), Epicgenius ( talk · contribs), and Frostly ( talk · contribs)) are reachable on their talk pages.

Hello. A request to take another look and hopefully pass Spiggotr6's article on this artwork which hangs in the United States Capitol as its official portrait of Abraham Lincoln. The painting is sourced to the House of Representatives and Capitol collection and also has a Smithsonian source. One gallery or museum source is usually enough to pass a visual artwork, and this page has several. This has become a major painting of Lincoln due to its prominence of being displayed in the Capitol and as part of the Capitol collection (as Lincoln's official portrait). Thanks.

And a similar consideration applies to linking the publisher - is the link helpful to the reader? The default is always to not link.

Hello, the Chinese Legalism article is under construction (previously I had it constituted of the figures, but the idea was to leave the larger figure articles to their figure articles). I will try to streamline the writing, since you left the tag, let me know if you otherwise have a particular critique. Keeping in mind that it is of course under construction. FourLights ( talk) 07:14, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
Given that the page needs more work regardless, I hope you might find time to consider the section Creel's branches of the Fajia, which I have assembled into an introduction, if you find time to comment whether you find it contextual, or otherwise too detailed. Or if the section "the morality of Han Fei" should be left to the Han Feizi page or not at all; I intend to create a Shang Yang related section, whose figure is a stand in (they are intended to be general sections, not figure sections). Thanks. I do appreciate your having visited to provide an updated critique in the form of the tag if nothing else, the previous tag calling for an "expert" would have suggested that I simply have no idea what I am talking about. Suffice to say, while others assist with minor edits, I am it's responsible writer. FourLights ( talk) 17:31, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, people's rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension. Happy Holidays to you and yours. Always a pleasure to see your work. ― Buster7 ☎

Today's story is about Maria Callas, on her centenary, - she had no DYK of her own, so I combined two that mentioned her ;) - It would anyway be impossible to write something to the point in one sentence. - Aaron Copland died OTD, and Jerome Kohl (mentioned in November) said something wise on Copland's talk. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 18:09, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello gain AirshipJungleman29, I am not a fan of turning articles into one paragraph stubs with an interpretation of WP:OVERSECTION. I prefer that unrelated ideas and paragraphs are in appropriate sections. They make the separate ideas easier to find. Bruxton ( talk) 03:35, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
too short and incomplete to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject. A stub also does not qualify for DYK. But I do not think Hanging Stone is incomplete and I think sections are helpful for our readers. I can see that you often invoke oversection like on this other DYK article: Phyllis Boyens but the sections were restored by an admin. I helped with the Boyens article so I saw this. We all have different styles so I thank you for considering and I hope that we can always discuss changes in the future. Bruxton ( talk) 14:59, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

I have a DYK on the Main page as you better than anybody else, but my story would be different, about Figaro, - this Figaro. The conductor described it as entertaining, - please check, singer and conductor can be seen commenting and in action. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 17:04, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
Soprano Tamara Milashkina is on the Main page, and I summarised in today's story. The RD appearance will get her a 5-digit viewcount over the days, I guess. I have to decide if I'll put more effort into it (length or GA) to make it DYK also. I would if I knew that any from the story would be acceptable, but not if in the end we say that she was a librarian before she became a singer, - not fair to her very specific achievements, and a waste of my lifetime.

Countering your point of "main page is based on article quality not relevance": yes, I mentioned that. The article for the Battle of Stalingrad is pretty well written.

Hello, I am afraid I only just noticed your comment in a peer review done on the Chinese Legalism page. While I've retracted some work to the sandbox, and I would not suggest more work is not needed in general to streamline and simplify, you mentioned the encyclopedia britannica, which contains a basic three elements view. I have put together a basic three elements view myself, which I admit is not basic but instead a completely comprehensive overview including it's broader academic history. It is only presently lacking in that it does not include every example of it to ever occur. If you would like to provide feedback, then thanks.
I could certainly streamline it more later but will require significant work and sources seeing as it's broader examples merely crib the Oxford with it's past references. FourLights ( talk) 17:36, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Our current leader is newcomer
Generalissima (
submissions), who has one FA on
John Littlejohn (preacher) and 10 GAs and 12 DYKs mostly on New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures. Here are some more noteworthy scorers:
As a reminder, competitors may submit work for the first round until 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February, and the second round starts 1 March. Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round; currently, competitors need at least 15 points to progress. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup.
