Happy Holidays

Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, people's rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension. Happy Holidays to you and yours. ―Buster7

A barnstar for you!

The Barnstar of Diligence
I award this barnstar to the stupendously committed "Victuallers, the Goal Setter" who wrote on the WiR talkpage on 20 Dec 2023: "So today's the day. This time last year I thought I wonder if I could write a new women's biog every day for a year. I'd tried before and messed it up at #360. So I started in December last year so I could officially start a full year this January. Well its complete and Wikipedia even records the names and dates here. During the year, I completed my 8 year run of notable ODNB women and ran out of missing ODNB Women in Red. I had to turn to Aussie women on the ADB. All of the 365 articles have fed into one of the WIR editathons." For this, you inspire me and countless others. So with appreciation and thanks, this barnstar is for you. Rosiestep (talk) 20:09, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Rosie, I will warm my tootsies on your kind greeting. Ive been thrilled to see WIR Tee shirts in Ghana - not sure whos idea but I'm feeling quite smug. Victuallers (talk) 23:03, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A difficult situation

Hello, Victuallers. Would you please see the discussion at Talk:Wiltshire County Council, in particular my last post there, and give us some thoughts from the point of view of an Admin? Kind regards, Moonraker (talk)

I had a look. I can see that it appears to have got into a tricky place but everyone seems to have an entrenched position. I don't think anyone intended to create this but now its there. Is it impossible to create a compromise? I'm not sure that discussing what would be ideal will help as surely it may be necessary to target a new position which is not optimal. Victuallers (talk) 23:05, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the thanks

I'm guessing you stumbled across that article somehow? I was working through the list of Cat A buildings in Moray, trying to tick off any that didn't have articles (a job I've yet to finish, but I made some headway), and I came across her while researching Aberlour House. I was intrigued, and started digging, and just kept getting more intrigued. I still can't believe her story isn't more widely known. Girth Summit (blether) 16:00, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Its something I do all the time to keep down the unreferenced women. I saw an advert for the drive and thought I may as well add the tag - (why would I wait?). I think Ive done abt 60.. I'm not too fussed about points - but keen to inspire others to rid us of unreferenced articles. Oh and thank for all your corrections and enhancements to "my?" articles.

@CurryTime7-24: I am sure there are lots of articles that could be referenced. ... and could be included .... it could be made a featured article - feel free. The point is, is it adequately referenced now? Victuallers (talk) 23:44, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are four refs on the ru:wiki. 1 is an interview, 2 is a 404 error, 3 is one that is already cited and the fourth is not in readable text. There are about 6 million articles on the en:wiki that could be improved. I don't understand the purpose or adding a tag that calls this one for special attention. Can you explain please?

Elizabeth Anne Lewis

Hi! Hope you are well. I created an article today on Elizabeth Anne Lewis, British temperance activist. She has an ODNB entry, which I can't access but I linked to it in the ELS.

Your thanks for my edit on ‪Talk:Tredegar Medical Aid Society‬

Thank you Victuallers. I am extremely pleased to learn of your continuing interest in the subject of the article. John Desmond (talk) 16:09, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it should be a top priority maybe. It was this facility that led to the UK being tradegarised. I'm not sure of the accurate figure but isnt about 5-10% of the UK employees are now working for the expanded version (now called the NHS) and another 1% are on the waiting list to use it:) My partner is in Tredegar tonight so that what made me notice it. :) Victuallers (talk) 22:21, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Autopatrol

Hi and hello from Los Angeles! I was surprised to come across an article you wrote in the in the new pages feed. Shouldn't you automatically have autopatrol? Forgive me if I'm missing something -- just leaving a message in case it's some kind of glitch that you are not aware of. (I know, grammar, it's early-ish here.)

Hope you are well! Julie JSFarman (talk) 17:28, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well I agree, but after a bit of stalking/following/TBA there was a debate and it was decided that I needed to allow the community to oversee my new articles. The stalking/following/TBA was fixed and I was left with this minor issue. I'm OK (it doesn't waste my time) and its OK to have corrections and additions. Thanks for your interest Julie.

I should have known -- there is always more to the story around here. But yeah, not a big deal (although I am flabbergasted)! JSFarman (talk) 19:19, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
