The Top 3 most-popular articles about People in WikiProject Christianity were:
A Song for Simeon, is a 37-line poem written in 1928 by American-English poet
T. S. Eliot (1888–1965). It is
one of five poems that Eliot contributed to the
Ariel poems series of 38 pamphlets by several authors published by
Faber and Gwyer. "A Song for Simeon" was the sixteenth in the series and included an illustration by
avant garde artist
Edward McKnight Kauffer. The poem's narrative echoes the text of the
Nunc dimittis, a liturgical prayer for
Compline from the Gospel passage. Eliot introduces literary allusions to earlier writers
Lancelot Andrewes,
Dante Alighieri and
St. John of the Cross. Critics have debated whether Eliot's depiction of Simeon is a negative portrayal of a Jewish figure and evidence of
anti-Semitism on Eliot's part.

Thank you so much for reviewing my article on Śāriputra. The review seems to be complete but the bot that usually updates the page with the icon hasn't made the update. Would you happen to know why? I'm somewhat new to good articles and don't understand why the bot hasn't updated the page with the icon yet. Thanks. Wikiman5676 ( talk) 04:32, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi Vami IV,
I noticed that the "Featured content" subpage of WikiProject Austria is instead displaying the featured content of WikiProject Germany. When I looked in the page history to determine the reason why, I found that in this edit you told the bot that's been updating that page to do this. Considering articles within WikiProject Germany's scope may not be within WikiProject Austria's scope, why did you do this?

Hello Vami, do you think you could help me with a DYK nomination that got stuck? The thing is that I don't just want to abandon it, because I might have been too strict. You know how I am. Perhaps you'd care to take another look?

L'ancienne église abbatiale a repris le vocable de l'ancienne église paroissiale, et est maintenant dédiée à saint Denis, qui a toujours été le saint patron de la paroisse de Morienval. — Irrégulièrement orientée nord-est - sud-ouest, l'église Saint-Denis est bâtie selon un plan symétrique et globalement cruciforme, qui malgré les différents remaniements le reste toujours à l'exception de la chapelle gothique primitive qui prolonge le croisillon nord vers le nord.
fr:Abbaye Notre-Dame de Morienval uses some vocabulary specific to historical religious buildings, even I had to look up two words 🙄
The old abbey church kept the name of the previous parish church, and is now dedicated to Saint-Denis, who had always been the patron saint of the Morienval parish. Unusually orientated northeast—southwest, the Saint-Denis church is built according to a symmetrical and globally cruciform plan, which remains as such despite the various reshuffles, with the exception of the primitive gothic chapel which extends the north transept northwards.
Hope this helps!! 😄 (I did end up learning what a croisillon/transept was 😅) Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 12:09, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Why is it important to you that this publisher's name be Wikilinked in articles? It looks like you've done several hundred of these in the past few days. Why?

Vami IV, you have three open reviews from April 17/18 which are turning 100 days old at the moment. Talk:Solovetsky Stone (Saint Petersburg)/GA1, which is progressing, Talk:Lake Ptolemy/GA1, which last listed a few points over two months ago and hasn't been posted to since, and Talk:Accessibility of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority/GA1, which has still not begun. I made a post querying the status of the latter before I realized that you had three of the same vintage open at the moment; when I did, it made more sense to post here.
What are your plans for the two where you have not been active of late? If you'd like, I can look for new reviewers for the two that have been inactive, or the one that hasn't yet been started. If you don't think you'll be able to finish either or both of them in the next week or two, it would be appropriate for you to allow someone who can devote time to reviewing to take over for you. Thank you for your consideration. BlueMoonset ( talk) 19:27, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

I know what it's like when a review gets stuck or goes stale. I've glanced at the article and it needs a fair amount of work to tidy it up to GA standard, so my suggestion is that, to be fair to the nominator, that a few pointers are given as to how to improve the article, and then the review is closed down. I can do this quite quickly as I am fresh to it, and it would take a little burden off your back so you can enjoy Wikipedia a little more. SilkTork ( talk) 10:43, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Thank you so much for reviewing my article on Śāriputra. The review seems to be complete but the bot that usually updates the page with the icon hasn't made the update. Would you happen to know why? I'm somewhat new to good articles and don't understand why the bot hasn't updated the page with the icon yet. Thanks. Wikiman5676 ( talk) 04:32, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi Vami IV,
I noticed that the "Featured content" subpage of WikiProject Austria is instead displaying the featured content of WikiProject Germany. When I looked in the page history to determine the reason why, I found that in this edit you told the bot that's been updating that page to do this. Considering articles within WikiProject Germany's scope may not be within WikiProject Austria's scope, why did you do this?
Thanks, DraconicDark ( talk) 18:13, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello Vami, do you think you could help me with a DYK nomination that got stuck? The thing is that I don't just want to abandon it, because I might have been too strict. You know how I am. Perhaps you'd care to take another look?
Leaving this here to make sure you see it since you've logged out of Discord before ferret pinged me :)
L'ancienne église abbatiale a repris le vocable de l'ancienne église paroissiale, et est maintenant dédiée à saint Denis, qui a toujours été le saint patron de la paroisse de Morienval. — Irrégulièrement orientée nord-est - sud-ouest, l'église Saint-Denis est bâtie selon un plan symétrique et globalement cruciforme, qui malgré les différents remaniements le reste toujours à l'exception de la chapelle gothique primitive qui prolonge le croisillon nord vers le nord.
fr:Abbaye Notre-Dame de Morienval uses some vocabulary specific to historical religious buildings, even I had to look up two words 🙄
The old abbey church kept the name of the previous parish church, and is now dedicated to Saint-Denis, who had always been the patron saint of the Morienval parish. Unusually orientated northeast—southwest, the Saint-Denis church is built according to a symmetrical and globally cruciform plan, which remains as such despite the various reshuffles, with the exception of the primitive gothic chapel which extends the north transept northwards.
Hope this helps!! 😄 (I did end up learning what a croisillon/transept was 😅) Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 12:09, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Why is it important to you that this publisher's name be Wikilinked in articles? It looks like you've done several hundred of these in the past few days. Why? Are you in some way connected with Taschen? Specifically, do you have a conflict of interest in regard to them? Are you an undeclared paid editor employed by Taschen or by a PR firm to promote the company?
What's going on? Please explain. Beyond My Ken ( talk) 05:54, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Kohlhammer Verlag is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Beyond My Ken ( talk) 04:47, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

Vami IV, you have three open reviews from April 17/18 which are turning 100 days old at the moment. Talk:Solovetsky Stone (Saint Petersburg)/GA1, which is progressing, Talk:Lake Ptolemy/GA1, which last listed a few points over two months ago and hasn't been posted to since, and Talk:Accessibility of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority/GA1, which has still not begun. I made a post querying the status of the latter before I realized that you had three of the same vintage open at the moment; when I did, it made more sense to post here.
What are your plans for the two where you have not been active of late? If you'd like, I can look for new reviewers for the two that have been inactive, or the one that hasn't yet been started. If you don't think you'll be able to finish either or both of them in the next week or two, it would be appropriate for you to allow someone who can devote time to reviewing to take over for you. Thank you for your consideration. BlueMoonset ( talk) 19:27, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

On 19 September 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article St. Johannes Evangelist, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that St. Johannes Evangelist, a former abbey church built in Cappenberg in the 12th century, houses the Barbarossa reliquary (pictured)? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/St. Johannes Evangelist. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, St. Johannes Evangelist), 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.

I know what it's like when a review gets stuck or goes stale. I've glanced at the article and it needs a fair amount of work to tidy it up to GA standard, so my suggestion is that, to be fair to the nominator, that a few pointers are given as to how to improve the article, and then the review is closed down. I can do this quite quickly as I am fresh to it, and it would take a little burden off your back so you can enjoy Wikipedia a little more. SilkTork ( talk) 10:43, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
