Hi, per [1], I'm well aware there are differing style approaches for number ranges external to Wikipedia (and is documented in the article you linked), but as I'm sure you know, for the English Wikipedia, we have a manual of style that governs these things here. The change I made was done according to that. The source's title may well show a hyphen in a number range, but nevertheless we style it to an en dash per MOS:RANGE, MOS:DATERANGE ("For ranges between numbers, dates, or times, use an en dash") and MOS:CONFORM, MOS:TITLECONFORM ("Formatting and other purely typographical elements of quoted text [also applies to titles of works] should be adapted to English Wikipedia's conventions without comment, provided that doing so will not change or obscure meaning or intent of the text"). There is no other consideration I can see for the titles of works to let them keep their hyphens in cases like these (i.e. "Do not change hyphens to dashes" in MOS:RANGE doesn't mention titles of works). If you can find any guideline that backs up keeping the hyphen, I will be happy to consider it. Stefen Towers among the rest! Gab • Gruntwerk 05:24, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Happy First Edit Day! Hi Shearonink! On behalf of the Birthday Committee, I'd like to wish you a very happy anniversary of the day you made your first edit and became a Wikipedian! The Herald (Benison) ( talk) 02:40, 12 March 2024 (UTC) |
Thanks to you and the Birthday Committee!!! Shearonink ( talk) 02:46, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
I replied to you on my Talk page. I'm not sure whether you are sent an email informing you of that, but I think that you will be sent an email informing you of this comment. Maurice Magnus ( talk) 20:39, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
I replied on my Talk page again. Are you alerted to that? I just want to get straight how this works. Thanks.
Regarding your comment here, I've been working down the list from the oldest and those that don't really need to be reviewed by a Clerk, and am currently on NickJr Fanon2021. Yours is only about 5 cases past that, so I should be able to get to it this afternoon. Don't give up on us yet :)-- Ponyo bons mots 16:25, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
