I tend to ramble a lot to the point I get incoherent in content debates sometimes. If I say anything totally confusing or even mean-sounding, I probably didn't mean it that way, so just let me know and we'll work it out.

I usually am open to help with Peer reviews, specific FAC areas, and GAN second opinions, but I am a little busy with the FAC of Eternal Blue (album) and the GAR of Bleeding Through at the moment. If I am urgently needed, my Discord handle is @american_horse. I am on Wikipedia's official server where I am nicknamed the same as my username here, but I usually am not active there (unless pinged).

Upgrading MOS:ALBUMS to status as an official guideline

[edit]

I started a discussion about upgrading MOS:ALBUM to be an official MOS guideline. If you're interested, feel free to give your input.-- 3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 17:29, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've been keeping tabs on the discussion. I have nothing of value to add to that discussion, and broadly agree with what changes are being worked on. I've always treated MOS:ALBUMS as official myself, and think it's probably good for the project to make it official. mftp dan oops 17:57, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Just wanted to make sure you knew about it.-- 3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 18:11, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, no need to even nominate!? Amazing. I think I've peaked. mftp dan oops 16:10, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hah, I figured I would just get it done and save you the work :) ♠PMC(talk) 18:16, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Request for help?

[edit]

Hi Dan, if you have some time, do you think you could help me out with my (desperate) attempts to fix/fixing Spit ? I would like help/feedback on its content, prose and formatting and things that I should do. This was GA'd in 2017, and since March 2023 I have made many many messy edits to this page which I feel have hurt its quality and misrepresented things (see here for an explaination of what I think I have done wrong in Spit). I tried a peer review in September 2024 but it did not get a response after two months so I abandoned it, but as the person who made these edits, I feel a sense of responsibility in correcting/fixing them.

Your GA feedback really helped when reviewing Until the End and I would really, really appreciate if you could help out, but I also understand if you can't. Thanks. // 15:55, 23 February 2025 (UTC) Chchcheckit (talk) 15:55, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't recall Spit being much of a problem, I've actually previously been involved with the article - in its original GA era. I'll try to look at it in the next few days, but it might be okay. I actually used to edit alongside Statik N a lot, but they're semi-retired now and come out every once in a while. Statik usually tried very hard to keep it that way, and I think it's possible you're overthinking it. mftp dan oops 01:21, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
