London medical students at Belsen
Hi...Are you able to check the maths here...or maybe @Redrose64: might have an idea. I worked out 93 student names, 9 medical schools, potentially 97 or 98 students...I don't know where Brierly fits in...therefore missing 4 or 5 students. The tercentenary article from Westminster says 4 students died. Also...should it be presented differently ie in a table. Also need a serious dyk for this.

Green Men
Green Man (disambiguation)#Public houses is now a thing. I wonder if there are any other similarly named pubs we could write about? I'm sure we can do something about the Green Man, Leytonstone (wasn't that an early haunt of Iron Maiden?), which is now a major road junction on travel reports. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:55, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- There are too many Greene Kings. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 13:37, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- Here's another Green Man for you. Can anyone find a reliable source confirming Paul Simon's appearances there? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 16:34, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- My book on Blackheath, which is probably the source for the others in the article, states that Madame Tussaud took her wax works show there in 1833. All the listed London pubs have at least a stub courtesy of @Edwardx: but there must be many notable non-listed or demolished pubs like this one. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:03, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks, but probably not all listed London pubs, as I may have missed a few and perhaps some have been more recently listed. And where are all these little green men coming from? Edwardx (talk) 21:27, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- They don't bother to list them if you haven't been. That's one of the criteria they insist on. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:34, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- I started in the index of the London Encyclopedia and worked backwards from there. There's another Green Man in Essex Road but the road didn't even have its own article so I went off and did that instead. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 21:32, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- Funny how many art deco cinemas end up as churches. It's a thing. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:38, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- I thought many of them ended up as bingo halls. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 21:42, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- That's a transitional phase before they become churches. It's all about sitting in rows. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:55, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- It's all better than them being demolished for yet more "luxury" flats. Edwardx (talk) 22:04, 9 October 2019 (UTC)

- @Ritchie333: I've been trying to make some sense of the Green Man in Blackheath by searching for photos, e.g. from the pre-1970 closure but there don't seem to be many. This one here, from around 1900, shows some sort of green with a fence and a lamp-post. Is that the green that is still there on the other side of Blackheath Hill? — Amakuru (talk) 21:52, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Amakuru: The modern view from about the same position is here. The old photos show a four way junction with (clockwise) Blackheath Hill, Point Hill, Shooter's Hill Road and Dartmouth Row. Dartmouth Row has had access from the A2 closed, while the end of Point Hill has been converted to a footpath. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 09:49, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

- I don't understand why the control group are drinking beer in this study? Shouldn't it be de-caf? Philafrenzy (talk) 08:07, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) apparently Wetherspoons do a range of non-alcoholic beers now, so the control can drink copious quantities of that, and make frequent trips to the coffee machine for the decaf. — Amakuru (talk) 08:17, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

Watchlist?
When you create an article like East Grinstead Museum, I hope you keep it on your watchlist. I've just rescued it from this vandalised state: I only knew because for some reason I'd helpfully added its logo, which the vandals had removed, so I got notified that I'd uploaded a file which was heading for deletion because it was a non-free image not used in an article. I've reverted the vandalism. But with an average 1 view/day (last 90 days), there aren't many eyes on this article and possibly on many others you've contributed, so please watch them yourself to avoid the encyclopedia being filled with childish vandalism or worse. Thanks. PamD 12:31, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Please don’t touch the cucumber sandwiches. They are ordered specially for Aunt Augusta. [Takes one and eats it.]

Speedy deletion nomination of Chicago Medical Society
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Chicago Medical Society requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

- I think it is a chapter from a thesis from here about Madhukar Krishna Naik, author of A History of Indian English Literature. Philafrenzy (talk) 11:13, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
- Interesting....The story of Peter Freyer and the Nawab of Rampur are on that site somewhere, and I think Juliana of Agra. Can we use it as a reference? Whispyhistory (talk) 11:28, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
- Find the relevant thesis and if it looks reliable then yes. Note that standards vary according to university and level of study. At the least it may tip you off to where you can find a reliable source if you don't trust the thesis. Philafrenzy (talk) 11:30, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

- You need around 6,600 characters and have around 2,600. Philafrenzy (talk) 08:31, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- Tried...can't do it. Whispyhistory (talk) 21:40, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- 5x only works if the topic is large or the original article was just a few lines. Otherwise very difficult. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:52, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- P.S. Cule got 8,000 views and Batman got over 7,000. It normally gets about 100 per day. But Batman got only 1 edit and that made it smaller! So 7,000 visited and only one of them could be bothered to improve it. Philafrenzy (talk) 22:20, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

ArbCom 2019 election voter message
Your article Alcides Sakala Simões
Welcome, and thank you for contributing the page Alcides Sakala Simões to Wikipedia. While you have added the page to the English version of Wikipedia, the article is not in English. We invite you to translate it into English. It has been listed at Pages Needing Translation, but if it is not translated within two weeks, the article will be listed for deletion. Thank you. Rogermx (talk) 21:43, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
- It is the expansion added by someone else that is not in English. Philafrenzy (talk) 22:01, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) @Rogermx: That was a bad-faith notice. If you examine the page history, you will see that the content concerned was not added by Philafrenzy, whose last edit to the page left it like this. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 23:59, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Bertram Park.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Bertram Park.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. AlbanGeller (talk) 21:11, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
The article Quebec Studies has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Randykitty (talk) 09:47, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
