DYK for Benjamin Rathbun

[edit]

On 13 July 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Benjamin Rathbun, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Benjamin Rathbun constructed more than one hundred buildings in Buffalo, New York in the 19th century, and was later jailed for forged endorsements? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Benjamin Rathbun. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Benjamin Rathbun), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. 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.

Thanks for your edit on the Madison Cawthorn article. It looks much better now. I just wanted to extend special thanks for not making your edit summary read "One weird trick to rm ugly visible underscores". Cheers. signed, Willondon (talk) 00:40, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Coal merchant

[edit]

Hi, fair enough on removing the link. I'm not dogmatic about limiting the coal merchant article to the UK, it focuses on the UK because it's what I know and what I was able to find sourcing on.

For what was once a major class of business it's really surprising how little there is I can find that discusses the history of the job, almost all mentions are "her dad was a coal merchant" or stuff like that. I think people have seen the job as pretty self-explanatory and not worth writing about. Adele Emm's article on what the job did and meant is really the only really excellent modern outline of it I know. Blythwood (talk) 23:26, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Russell Simmons, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 06:58, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Binksternet - My apologies. I had only meant to delete the extra period at the end of the hatnote. I am not sure why the previously reverted vandalistic edits were reinstated. -- Andre Carrotflower (talk) 07:34, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It happens. Thanks for the note. Binksternet (talk) 12:23, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Walk the Moon, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Moonwalk. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 07:54, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What you should have done here [1] is improve the hatnote, not revert to bad syntax (see WP:HATNOTE). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:19, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
