As promised yesterday (through the wine fumes!), an invite to the latest SchroCat peer review, looking at the tragic life and times of John Barrymore.

Hi Brian, thanks for the email. I think I have fixed the problem and the PR backlog now shows up on my browser in its proper place. This edit removed a </noinclude> tag, which caused the problem. I also need to finish the monthly archive chores for PR and will do that next. All the best and thanks again, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 17:29, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
Brainy Brian, I know you can't do anything without sysop tools (by the way, why not go to RFA ??), but I just wanted to make you aware of Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/December 9, 2014. I do need to get re-involved at FAC, at least for medical articles anyway, because too much is slipping by. Best, SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 15:36, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
I noticed you took out a stray single quote, which appeared like so:
with the double quote being closed later on. The first single quote is before 'beyond' in this sentence, so the single quote is in fact correct, as Slaton is quoting the law in which he justified reducing Frank's sentence to life imprisonment instead of the death penalty. Also, I'm going through and adding citations as needed, since there are still some places where facts are either uncited or in an obscure place (like trial testimony) instead of a secondary book source. I'll try to keep working on that and make sure your edits remain. Thanks for your help and time, and good luck with FA for A Handful of Dust. Tonystewart14 ( talk) 16:25, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
Brian, four years back, you did a peer review of the Robert Cade article. I nominated it two months ago for GA review, but the GA queue has barely moved in the nine or ten weeks since. Could I talk you into taking on the GA review of it? I think it's pretty clean and needs only minimal editing. Dirtlawyer1 ( talk) 21:58, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for arranging this, Brian. Tim has already jumped on it and effectively completed his review. I hope to have occasion to work with you on something else in the near future. Cheers. Dirtlawyer1 ( talk) 23:35, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi. You requested access to a British Newspaper Archive account via The Wikipedia Library a long time ago. I took over responsibilities as the account coordinator and I approved you for an account about a month ago. I still need you to follow the steps indicated on the e-mail I sent you, including submitting your information on the Google doc that e-mail indicates. If I don't have that information by 15 December, I'm going to archive your application with no further action.
If there's been any confusion or crossed-wires about this process, I apologize. I understand your request waited for some time before I e-mailed you. I'm eager to catch-up with the backlog of requests and other editors are waiting for accounts. Chris Troutman ( talk) 22:16, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
Four emails sent to you laden with juicy news reports. They cover the story from the initial disappearance until it was found: it's from the first 10 pages of results (28 more pages to trawl (sorry) though) to cover the court case/ramifications etc. - 1,750 or so results in all. If there are any specific aspects of the journey etc you need more work done on, let me know and I can fine tune the searches. Cheers - SchroCat ( talk) 10:46, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
Hello, Brian
I am looking for a book that is probably not written yet, (but maybe it is):
Its name is: "Huntford's Hirngespinste oder wie man es nicht schafft, seine persönlichen Aversionen in Zaum zu halten"
It is a German book and I don't know whether a decent chap like you does actually know it, but you should do, all the best, let me know if you find out something about the book and keep up a "stiff upper lip"!
Until then and with the kindest regards

Looking in to keep an eye on the progress of your FAC for A Handful of Dust I notice this exchange: "FN1 should italicize ODNB"/"I don't think it should – this is the online ODNB, not the printed edition." Your view chimes with my own intuitive feelings. I have so far meekly complied with similar requests to italicise the online ODNB, OED etc, and am encouraged by your stout resistance. But on what specific grounds do you (and I on your coat-tails) defend the absence of itals from online titles of well-known publications? Ever thine, Innocent of Islington, also known on the charge-sheet as Tim riley talk 20:20, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
Later today I hope to be parking some MacMillan comments on that article's talkpage. Brianboulton ( talk) 10:20, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
Never ceases to amaze me the quality of your reviews Brian and the effort you put into reviewing on here aside from your own work. Thankyou for all the time you put into them.♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:50, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
Let's take Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/1924 Rose Bowl as an example, and that you have decided to schedule it for 1st January 2015 and that the blurb and image are fine. To schedule this, you need to do the following:
1. Open the nomination and make the following changes:
{{TFARsubpage
|monthyear=December 2014
|passed=<!-- When closing discussion, enter yes or no -->
|date=<!-- If successful, add the date in "month day, year" format -->
becomes
{{subst:TFARsubpage
|monthyear=December 2014
|passed=<!-- When closing discussion, enter yes or no -->yes
|date=<!-- If successful, add the date in "month day, year" format -->January 1, 2015
2. Copy the blurb (including the {{
TFAIMAGE}} and save the nomination page.
3. Remove
Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/1924 Rose Bowl from the TFAR page (and the summary chart).
4. Go to
Wikipedia:Today's featured article/January 2015.
5. Click on "create".
6. Paste the blurb that you have copied from the nomination page.
7. Go to the previous day's TFA blurb (in this case,
Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 31, 2014) and open it.
8. In the "Recently featured" line of the 1st January page, add the previous day's TFA with italics as necessary i.e.
Fijación Oral, Vol. 1, followed by the previous two TFAs (which will be the first two listed in the previous day's blurb, i.e.
Thief II: The Metal Age –
Three Beauties of the Present Day).
{{TFAfooter|Month={{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}}|Year={{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}}}
{{TFAfooter|Month=January|Year=2015}}
9. Save the page.
10. Go to
Talk:1924 Rose Bowl and open it.
11. In the {{
article history}}, add |maindate=1 January 2015
and save with an appropriate edit summary. This bit used to be done by a bot but until FACBot adds it to its list of tasks I've been doing it manually.
12. Notify the principal author(s) of the forthcoming appearance (which also used to be done by a bot, and which you've been doing).
13. If you're using
user:Bencherlite/TFA notepad, update that.
14. Update
WP:TFAREC - as it's the start of the month you need to start a new monthly subpage, which I've done for you at
Wikipedia:Today's featured article/recent TFAs/January 2015, and I've done the Rose Bowl to show how it's done. (I kept the last six complete months plus the month for which scheduling was in progress; older months get archived to
Wikipedia:Today's featured article/TFAs in 2014.)
1. Choose the article you want to schedule.
2. Go to e.g
Wikipedia:Today's featured article/January 2015.
3. Click on "create" for the day you want to schedule.
4. Write the blurb and add the image.
5. Steps 7 to 13 as above.
Once it spots that a new article has been scheduled, a bot will apply move protection to the article, so you don't need to worry about that (you only need to worry about move protection if you're rescheduling as the bot won't spot changes within a block of scheduled TFAs, as it only spots new ones added. Does this make some sort of sense? Give it a go and see what it looks like! Bencherlite Talk 18:50, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
{{TFAfooter|Month={{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}}|Year={{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}}}
{{TFAfooter|Month=January|Year=2015}}
Sorry...
15. Remove the TFA from
WP:FADC or
WP:FANDC.
On the plus side, I've set up WP:TFAREC so that it always shows the current month's TFAs, the TFAs in the previous 5 months and (if the pages exist) the TFAs in the following 2 months. I've also finished Wikipedia:Today's featured article/TFAs in 2014 and started Wikipedia:Today's featured article/TFAs in 2015 in a way that should mean that nobody has to touch it for a year, as it will just add new months when they are created. Bencherlite Talk 12:13, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi Brian, I just wanted to reassure you that I am going very carefully through the Mark Satin bio looking for dead links and other imperfections, as you suggested.

Attached is a small snack which I hope will give you the energy to continue being an amazing person and editor in the coming year.

A minor matter, but your thoughts, as one who knows a font from a West front, would be welcome here (the first of my two additions). Tim riley talk 23:23, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

... for 4-11 January are a very pleasant surprise. I figured Bencherlite was going to be leaving us mostly mushroom and battleship articles (not that there's anything wrong with those), but you've really picked out some gems. - Dank ( push to talk) 21:31, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

Wishing you and yours a Happy Holiday Season, from the horse and bishop person. May the year ahead be productive and troll-free. - Ealdgyth - Talk 14:59, 25 December 2014 (UTC) |
Hi Brian. No problem, they are different enough that they don't really repeat a topic, and I'm old enough to have the time to pre-review both. Happy New Year Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:44, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi Brian, I just wanted to reassure you that I am going very carefully through the Mark Satin bio looking for dead links and other imperfections, as you suggested. It is taking a while but I hope to finish by the end of the year. Also, Dank wanted me to send him any suggestions I had for the excellent 1200-characvter summary he drafted for the Wikipedia home page, and I have just sent four small suggested edits to him at his talk page. All best, - Babel41 ( talk) 08:12, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi Brian, I noticed the current TFA mentions being part of a Featured Topic. If you think it's worth my adding, No. 1 Squadron is also part of an FT -- no problem if you'd prefer to leave it out though. Cheers, Ian Rose ( talk) 11:51, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
