Thank you for the review @Viriditas: I will look at the cancer material later. Originally the article was only about the funeral but another editor added to the scope by including death. I appreciate the review, I will see if I can look for articles of yours to review. I enjoyed Pillar Point Bluff. Bruxton (talk) 00:29, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

TFA

story · music · places

Today's TFA, Felix M. Warburg House, was written by Vami_IV and Epicgenius, introduced: "This article is about another of the great houses that once lined Fifth Avenue in New York. Specifically, this is the mansion of Felix M. Warburg, a Jewish financier who ignored fears of anti-Semitic reprisal to his decided to build himself a big Gothic manor in the middle of New York City. Although the Warburgs no longer remain, their legacy does: the museum is now the home of the Jewish Museum (Manhattan) and the building largely survives as they left it. It's a beautiful building and I hope you will all enjoy it."! - in memory -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:42, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Doom (2016 video game) - today's TFA is again by Vami - thank you for adding a ref to the soprano, but more will be needed because her opera company's biography is "promotional", and using it at all (regardless for what) is not ethical - really? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:49, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

today's story has a pic of a woman holding her cat, a DYK of 5 years ago - the recent pics show 2 orange tip butterflies --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:29, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

today's story mentions a concert I loved to hear and a piece I loved to sing in choir, 150 years old OTD. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:17, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

I forgot to thank you for adding a fact and ref to the baritone's colleague! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:34, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
