Question

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=WinMX&oldid=1249940571 this edit gets rid of of simple fixes because of coi but its an improvement over the archives •Cyberwolf•talk? 16:56, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyberwolf Apparently I didn't look closely enough. I've reverted myself. Thanks. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:00, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mhm, your very welcome •Cyberwolf•talk? 18:00, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sigh

Please put back the correct title for 'Muslim grooming gangs in the UK' from Grooming gang moral panic in the UK which you incorrectly changed it too Khillpps (talk) 16:17, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Promenade de Verdun War Memorial

Not heard of this one before. Do any of your books have anything on it? Oddly, Pevsner doesn't mention it, though it does cover Woodcote. KJP1 (talk) 07:31, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@KJP1 Pevsner can be hit and miss on memorials that aren't by famous architects/sculptors. Leave it with me for a few days and I'll see if I can find anything. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 11:37, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mells War Memorial

Hi Harry, you have listed this for TFA at pending for November. I have tentatively reserved a date for it, but if you would still like it be considered you will need to nominate it at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests, which is now open. Cheers.

@Gog the Mild I don't remember doing that. I usually just let you tell me when my FAs are getting their day in the sun but it's always nice if we can run something topical on Armistice Day or Remembrance Sunday. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:22, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thoughts

Hi! About 11 months ago you very kindly gave me rollback rights, saying that you thought I'd make good use of them. You also said you thought I'd potentially make a good admin someday, but that it was obviously a bit early at that point to consider it. Having received the pop-up about the trial admin election process I am toying with the idea of throwing my hat in; as someone with significant tenure who's seen my contributions over a significant length of time, I was wondering if you had any thoughts (whether it's still too early etc).

Any feedback, however brief and/or blunt, would be appreciated. Thanks! AntiDionysius (talk) 22:37, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) I can say that I generally find your AIV reports to be reliably good, which is a good sign for an anti-vandal admin. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:00, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's good to hear, thank you! AntiDionysius (talk) 23:02, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
