Of course the same editors who swamped athlete AfDs with "Keep meets NFOOTY" have pivoted toward insisting trivial routine coverage is GNG. This clearly should have been relisted given the last !vote had no basis in guidelines and KKL literally just learned he should say "meets GNG" instead of "played professionally".

Also, I would have thought that the part of sources that cover how a subject "felt" would obviously be WP:PRIMARY.You'd think! But editors felt differently here, about this source.... JoelleJay ( talk) 18:11, 18 March 2023 (UTC)
Hi Alvaldi; I'm a Wikipedian from Switzerland quite interested in all things Icelandic, of which you seem to be knowledgeable judging by your edits. I'm going to update the German Wikipedia article about Fréttablaðið now that it has ceased publication, and in this context, I have a question: Do you know any sources about the status of DV as a printed newspaper, resp. when exactly (if at all) it ceased to be printed and went online-only? Though User:Dagvidur edited the article in May 2022 to say "Today it [sic] online only", they gave no source, and Icelandic Wikipedia (I have some basic understanding of Icelandic) still describes it as a weekly newspaper in is:DV. If I look it up in timarit.is, the last issue available there is from May 15, 2021, but that might also be a moving wall for access, so was that really the last printed issue? I could ask Dagvidur directly, of course, but as they don't seem to be very active, I thought of asking you. What I find quite striking is that the last issue at timarit.is that looks like a regular newspaper with various news etc. is the one dated April 1, 2021 - the other issues until May 15 seem to consist largely of a single main article each portraying an Icelandic celebrity. So this all seems to be rather indicative that it wasn't printed anymore afterwards, but I don't find a clear statement, press release or something to that effect. Can you help?

I've just done 10 hours to Japan to Dubai, 7 hours to London, my head is still bouncing like it is still on an airplane! Anyway, it does bug me out that there probably are offline sources on historic footballers, they are just bloody hard to find that is all. I want to have faith! Anyway, I am going back to bed! Peace.

Snævar ( talk) 12:26, 22 June 2023 (UTC)Thank you for adding sources there. I started that page 12 years ago, but never went back to try to turn it into an article. I'm ashamed to say that I can't understand Icelandic at all, even if I recognise a few words from other Nordic languages, but it looks as if you don't have that problem. So, may I ask you two questions: is Asgeir Jónsson the author of the Alþýðublaðið piece (I see that name at the foot of the first column); and is there an article on this topic in Icelandic Wikipedia? – because if there is it would be good to link them together.

Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from
Women's Professional Basketball League into
1978–79 WBL season. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere,
Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an
edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and
linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{
copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at
Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. —
