Lady killed on Dec 24 morning was most definitely a 2022 North American Storm casualty

Local police did confirm. And further news articles were released by the local newspaper.

Her name is Golbahar and she is one of the only five people killed in Canada in this storm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wuxingqi (talk • contribs)

@Wuxingqi: Hello. I don't really know why you're asking me about this, but if you have an issue please bring it up on the article's talk page. echidnaLives - talk - edits 09:52, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Brigadier General John Henry Hammond

I am new to Wikipedia, so please forgive me - I just posted this draft today and it was immediately flagged by you for deletion. I thought it was not submitted for review, and that if I simply "published" the article as a draft, I was not subjecting myself to your review. I had worked for quite a long time on a draft that I did not "publish" and Wikipedia suddenly crashed and deleted all of my hours of work. So in my effort to not lose all of my work, I simply hit publish as it was a draft. I never submitted it for review. But since I have your attention - I would want to know why so many other insignificant Brigadier Generals are given Wikipedia articles, but Brevet Brigadier General John Henry Hammond is omitted. I don't know any other Brevet Brigadier Generals who were friends with Sitting Bull and negotiated his surrender after winning the Civil War, then went on to build a great American City, Superior, Wisconsin, and his son and grandson became members of the Vanderbilt family, both transformative figures in law and the recording industry. None of the other Brigadier Generals I see on Wikipedia have done nearly as much as this Hammond family to transform culture in America. I'm frankly shocked that Wikipedia has articles for his son, Ogden Haggerty Hammond, and his daughter in law, Emily Vanderbilt Sloane, and his son's home, John Henry Hammond House, and the house he owned, Joseph Forepaugh house, and the city he built that Was once the second largest city in Wisconsin, Superior, Wisconsin, but there is no article for Brevet Brigadier General John Henry Hammond. I know I am new to this, but it's shocking to be immediately deleted. These are prominent figures who have plenty of newspaper articles and books with chapters related to them, but they aren't considered worthy of a Wikipedia article? It's just too bad. Happy New Year.

Partnershp for Central America Page

Hi EchidnaLives, Thanks so much for your guidance on the Partnership for Central America page. I took a good-faith swing at fully revising it to be sure the language is much more straight down the line and also removed a bunch of content per your suggestion. Thank you for your guidance and please let me know if I should do anything else to improve that page. Happy New Year! Deerepublic (talk) 06:48, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the advice on Felix Leong! Australianblackbelt (talk) 07:59, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

2006 in rock

Hello Echidna. Quick question - is 2006 in rock music really ready to be published? If that editor had started it in the mainspace in its current state, I probably would have sent it to draft space. Its just hardly a coherent overview of the events of an entire year as is. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks. Sergecross73 msg me 15:34, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Ohhh, I am so sorry. I thought I declined it. I think I had just accepted a few other articles and was probably zoned out, and ended up accepting it when I didn’t mean to. I’m going to bed now and don’t have time to do anything about it, but if you would like to re-draftify it or anything similar, I’m completely okay with that. Again, sorry about this, I’ll have to make sure I’m paying more attention when reviewing! echidnaLives - talk - edits 15:42, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

No worries, it happens. I'm just glad I said something. I'll take care of it and send it back to the draft space. Thank you! Sergecross73 msg me 15:58, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

cgit draft

Hi EchidnaLives,

First I would like to thank you for the quick review of the cgit page draft. I am new to Wikipedia article editing, so I am sure that I have to learn a lot to be able to create high-quality articles that meet the standards of Wikipedia.

According to your remarks I updated the article draft about cgit, to make it clear that this article draft is not aiming to advertise cgit, which is a free and open source software tool, and is being of great use for the open-source software community in developing other free and open source softwares for more than a decade. To support the notability I also added references for two relevant books.

I hope that with these improvements you will consider this article is worth being published on Wikipedia. If you think that further improvements are necessary I will be glad to implement them as well.

Best regards and a Happy New Year, Bence Ágg Suopte (talk) 17:30, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
