Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of acts who appeared on American Bandstand, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bob Welch. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

While it's true that some media outlets jumped the gun in describing last night's show as the band's last concert performance ever, the problem is that they were making their own presumptions and not sticking to the facts. The facts of the situation are that the band has not declared that they're ending, or that they'll never record or perform again; what they have said is that they may very well continue to do both things in the future depending on how long and how well Downie's health holds out. Last night certainly may someday turn out to have been the band's last live concert ever, and certainly that possibility is why the tour and last night's show in particular became such a Monster of a Thing — but as of right now it's a WP:CRYSTAL violation for us to declare it their last show ever just because some media outlets ignored the nuances of the situation.

As you might have noticed, I have been removing Secondcity, Jax Jones and Nico & Vinz from the One Hit Wonders list. This is because they aren't true one hit wonders. The one hit wonder page SHOULD be a list of artists who have achieved one number-one hit on the UK Singles Chart and no other entry whatsoever on the chart Full Stop. Not a list of artists who have achieved one number-one hit on the UK Singles Top 75. Someone this year has changed the criterion for what a one hit wonder is. Plus, if this was just on the top 75, then there would be more artists who feature on the list who have tracks released before 2014. Secondcity, Jax Jones and Nico & Vinz have had more than one top 100 hit, so therefore, I believe that they are not true on hit wonders. Therefore, I kindly ask you to remove them from the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.40.213.236 ( talk) 18:32, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

While I agree with you in general that the sources you switched to are better sources, in this particular case I think it may be a problem. There is some debate on the talk page regarding the criteria for being included in the MeToo article. The sources I used were directly discussing MeToo, as well as Lauer, thus justifying his inclusion even under the more restrictive criteria being proposed. The sources you swapped for do not, which would set him up to be deleted. ResultingConstant ( talk) 16:08, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
Just wondering why the whole band was listed, when in the article [1], individual band members were actually named. Also since it's a denial of predatory behavior/sexual abuse, does that meet the criteria to be included in this list in the first place?

The quote was sourced at the end of the background section by the Billboard ref. Multiple editors, when copyediting in the past, have stated that we don't need multiple ref names if and when all the content of the section is sourced by the ref placed at the end of that section. If that's not your opinion or the way you've done it, great. It still looks like a failure on your part to check. Ss 112 04:09, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

US Banknote Contest | ||
---|---|---|
November-December 2019 | ||
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here |

Thanks for all your work on The Cure's page. I added a few citations myself just now. I also added one more tag.

Hi you’ve reverted an edit I made and I’m not sure why. I recently created the article Le Concert d’Astrée and then wordsearched to find instances of it in other articles so I could blue link them. 54th Annual Grammy Awards already included a mention of Le Concert d’Astrée, so I bluelinked it. You’ve reverted my linking with the summary ‘not listed in nominations’. If the orchestra isn’t mentioned in the nomination I understand the reason for removing it altogether, but I don’t understand removing the blue link but leaving the plain text. Have I misunderstood what you meant? All the best Mccapra ( talk) 22:51, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
Hi Doc Strange. I made a minor edit to Terrence McNally which inadvertently removed the changes that were made in between the time I started and completed my edit.

You reverted my addition for no reason
The article says the song references
The lyrics reference the yellow idol in J. Milton Hayes' poem The Green Eye of the Yellow God. The first stanza of the poem runs: "There's a one-eyed yellow idol to the north of Kathmandu.
However the line used in the song is "There's a little yellow idol to the north of Katmandu"
In the Goon Show episode the character Bloodnok says Well, it's a long, long story, er, I mean, I... Well, ah... There's a little yellow idol to the north of Kathmandu - http://www.thegoonshow.net/scripts_show.asp?title=s06e25_the_fear_of_wages
So, the line in the song is a direct quote from the Goon Show so what I wrote is a more accurate account for the article because whilst it is a 'reference' to the poem it is a direct quote from the Goon Show - a radio show that John Lennon loved as a teenager.

Thank you for not removing all material, but it's written: "Individual members of the group have continued to appear with Phish, and Grippo and Remington have become integral parts of Trey’s solo band, so a return of the GCH at some future junction is, like all things Phishy, not impossible." [1] Aren't they worth mentioning? I think still that there shouldn't be 1983-2000;2002-2004; 2008-present. The band became inactive in 2004. There was merely hiatus. I'm explaining myself.
