It looks like Para Clark is slogging through Queen, improving the 1980s bits. I've got up to 1975 primarily fact checking against two book sources; at some point I'll go back and cite a few more for variety. It's a long old slog, but I think it's had about 6 failed goes at getting up to GA, so maybe the final push for attempt number 7 will be it. Well it worked for The Who and Genesis.

List of Fatal Dog Attacks - there was strong consensus in the 16 iVotes vs the weak arguments in the 10 keeps, one of which has a little over 400 contributions. Eddie891 presented a very strong case, as did other delete supporters. The ID laws in that list are inaccurate in many cases and detrimental to the lives of innocent dogs who are being put to death because they are being wrongly identified as "pit-bull types", and now WP is contributing to that fatal mistake by validating inaccurate lists like this one.

Hi Ritchie. I noticed you just closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fatal dog attacks in the United States. As you voted keep in the last AfD, which suggests to me that you might not be the correct closer for that AfD especially given that delete had, as a head count, 60%+ support. Given that the last AfD, which also closed as No Consensus, was relatively recent I had, as I considered my own close, given all participants, including you, full weight if the only participated at one but not both AfDs.

Why did you request a speedy deletion for Sarah Meeker Jensen?

Has anyone taken over the script for identifying BLPs with neither external links nor footnotes? I still think the grimly urgent task is to identify and retag those BLPs that are tagged "no references" but actually have either a footnote or an external link, before they get wrongly deleted and in order to clear the unreferenced BLP category so the genuinely unreferenced ones can be seen and dealt with, and to get those who are using that tag instead of a refimprove tag to stop. And I admit I've been finding the redlinks that appear in the list you posted at User:Ritchie333/Unreferenced and unlinked BLPs to be useful: I got one back via REFUND after seeing in Google cache that someone had added references after it was PRODded, they turned out to have been present in an earlier version, and the editor has since improved it from more sources; and Carlos Chandia turns out to be properly Chandía, a Chilean referee with a lot of mentions in the Spanish-language press, although except for an award they mostly seem to be quoting him, so I don't think I'll ask for that one back. But on balance, I think it's time for me to request an updated list (or a link to where the output now lives) so I and maybe others can ref up (or speedy) a few more. Otherwise I may spend the rest of the month on dead academics, after finding the prof whose inaugural lecture I attended died at 94, I clearly am old as dirt and stuck in the past.

Dear Ritchie333,
If possible, I would like your advice on something. I will try to formulate it in a as neutral way as possible.
There is a content dispute. Party X says there are reliable sources to state something. Party Y says there are not.
Party X is composed of two people that are actively participating in the discussion. Four people have given single paragraph statements supporting this party, but do not care to discuss ad infinitum.
Party Y is composed of one person that is actively participating in the discussion.
The discussion is up since September 20, and no consensus has been achieved yet.
The article history is filled with reverts from both parties.
Do you think there is room to impose sanctions against someone in party X (in this case, myself), under the argument of editing prior to achieving consensus?
Hope I can receive your feedback.

On 15 October 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Myra Kathleen Hughes, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that Myra Kathleen Hughes's Vanishing London series captured several landmarks before they were demolished? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Myra Kathleen Hughes. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

Dear Ritchie333,
If possible, I would like your advice on something. I will try to formulate it in a as neutral way as possible.
There is a content dispute. Party X says there are reliable sources to state something. Party Y says there are not.
Party X is composed of two people that are actively participating in the discussion. Four people have given single paragraph statements supporting this party, but do not care to discuss ad infinitum.
Party Y is composed of one person that is actively participating in the discussion.
The discussion is up since September 20, and no consensus has been achieved yet.
The article history is filled with reverts from both parties.
Do you think there is room to impose sanctions against someone in party X (in this case, myself), under the argument of editing prior to achieving consensus?
Hope I can receive your feedback.
