US first ladies

I saw Epicgenius's ping on the Signpost about your work on Ida Saxton McKinley. A while back I put together this page to organize the US first ladies articles. You might be interested in the list of sources that I've compiled at the bottom. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 18:13, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks! I've been out of town and I really appreciate all the work you've been doing. I had a userpage that did something similar, albeit it was a bit inaccurate as I cobbled it together at 10PM after seeing the wikiproject us presidents page.❤HistoryTheorist❤ 23:34, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

DYK for Nelson Santana

On 27 January 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Nelson Santana, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Nelson Santana supposedly predicted the date of his death? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Nelson Santana. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Nelson Santana), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Extraordinary Writ (talk) 05:59, 28 January 2024 (UTC)== Days of the year pages ==

Hello there. Please do not accept unsourced entries to days of the year pages, as you did here on June 3. See WP:DOYCITE for further information. Thank you. CycloneYoris talk! 01:50, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

I've stopped accepting them as I can't keep up with adding the citations myself (as I was a bit busy) and the user is starting to accrue warnings. However, I looked at the revision you mentioned, and while I wrongfully accepted other entries, I found a citation from es wiki and added a citation to support the edition. ❤HistoryTheorist❤ 02:51, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
No worries. I did notice you added a citation, and that's why I immediately restored the entry that was cited. Thanks again! CycloneYoris talk! 10:31, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
