Thanks for the edit - was the ping simply meant to clue me in (as you were kindly fixing up something I'd missed?) UndercoverClassicist ( talk) 20:38, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
User:TSventon Since the source cited is not online, I can't read it. I would be very interested to know, if you can tell me, who exactly it was that tried and fined the King? Even today, the King cannot be tried in his own courts, so who had that power in 1290? Textorus ( talk) 02:40, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

I so appreciate that you hung in with me to sort out the Vermeer paintings for the
Maria de Knuijt article. It's come so far!
P.S. I will wait to move the table over to the article until you've had a chance to check it out and make any changes you see fit. – CaroleHenson ( talk) 20:54, 7 May 2023 (UTC) |
CaroleHenson, I had not got around to saying that I saw the article because I watch out for interesting DYK articles, including Dutch subjects. Thank you for your kind words and especially for doing a lot of extra work on the article in response to my comments. TSventon ( talk) 22:52, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the revert and links! I saw the red link, saw that I had "Minnesota" in the sources, and assumed the red link must have been wrong. Not my finest hour.-- Jerome Frank Disciple 23:25, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
Hi there @ TSventon,
My section on the Help Desk was archived so I figured I would ask here. I'm not sure if you can help me with this, but does starting/publishing a translation of an already existing Wikipedia page create a duplicate one if there's already an existing article? For example, the article Egor Kreed exists here, but there's a lot more content over on the Russian Wikipedia. I was planning to work on it with the Content Translation tool, but did not do anything because I feared it would make a duplicate and it would get deleted. Do you know, by any chance, a workaround to this other than having separate browser tabs open side by side? Or could the Content Translation tool help me with this? I read the Translation page you posted in response to my question, but now I'm kinda stuck.
If not you, do you know of another user that can provide better guidance? I was going to post another question on the Help Desk but I figured to reach out to you first with this. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. Losipov ( talk) 23:11, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

Should we try to get her to GA? -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 15:33, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
The article Berit Lindholm you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Berit Lindholm for comments about the article, and Talk:Berit Lindholm/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has never appeared on the Main Page as a "Did you know" item, and has not appeared within the last year either as "Today's featured article", or as a bold link under "In the news" or in the "On this day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear at DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On this day" column do not affect DYK eligibility. -- MyCatIsAChonk ( talk) 14:42, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for your share to quality articles such as Berit Lindholm, Deutsches Romantik-Museum, Palucca University of Dance Dresden and Echte Wagner Margarine, for service to DYK, for diligent improvements of articles with good edit summaries, for de-orphaning, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

On 30 August 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Berit Lindholm, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that dramatic soprano Berit Lindholm (pictured) was said to have been called "that damn primary school teacher" by the director of the Royal Swedish Opera, and used it in the title of her memoir? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Berit Lindholm. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Berit Lindholm), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Hi there, TSventon. As you have been pretty active trying to help us along on WIR talk, I thought you might like to take a look at our Technical support page and see if there's anything important that should be included. I am thinking of providing a link to it in our next invitation. If you are tied up with other things, no worries.-- Ipigott ( talk) 11:11, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi TSventon :) I'm looking for people to interview here. Feel free to pass if you're not interested. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 17:17, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
Hi, you appear to be very knowledgeable about categories. Earlier you had a discussion with TheBishopAndHolyPrince (then removed by TBAHP). I came across TBAHP blanking two categories, and, coupled with a history of problems, I indeffed them for disruptive editing. Now I'm wondering if I was hasty. I believe what they've done is to create new categories and then blank the existing categories, essentially merging a bunch of articles from one or two older cats to one new one. I would've thought something like this needs to be discussed first. I also don't think they should have removed the discussion you were having. However, I'm not sure enough of my ground and wondered if you could give me your input. Thanks.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 18:34, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello, you were the one discussing this topic of moving pages at the help desk, so I'm coming to you for some help. I'm having trouble moving in particular the Fishing in Turkey article to Fishing industry in Turkey due to some disputes with other editors. They believe that it should stay as-is, even after I gave viable and practical evidence as to why it should be moved. I didn't necessarily consider what I would do if someone disputed, so what do you think I should do?
They already looked for a third opinion, who is siding with them, stating that fishing industry in Turkey would confuse readers, in terms of recreational fishing, despite that not making sense since you can always make "fishing in Turkey" a redirect, as well as the fact that wikipedia's search function allows you to find the closest topic to what you search, meaning that there shouldn't be much trouble looking for such a topic.
