Thank you today for Gu Yanwu, "about a noted historian who lived at a time of great upheaval in early modern China. Gu was a Ming loyalist who, rather than fighting to the end for the cause, took to wandering around the country and writing. He remained influential to future generations, and even got a temple in his honor in Beijing by the 1800s."! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:02, 10 July 2026 (UTC)

Congratulations on this well-deserved message. I believe it was very hard to get this to GA status. I wish you luck if you plan to get it to FAC status. I'd be happy to look at the article at PR and/or FAC stage, therefore a ping would be welcomed if I do not notice it myself. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 17:44, 18 August 2026 (UTC)

New pages patrol September 2026 Backlog drive

September 2026 Backlog Drive | New pages patrol
On 1 September 2026, a one-month backlog drive for new pages patrol will begin at a particularly important time for NPP. The backlog has now passed 30,000 unreviewed articles, a level that has been described in current NPP discussions as exceptionally high and potentially difficult to overcome through normal reviewing alone. Backlog drives are one of the few measures that have historically produced a noticeable reduction in the backlog, so the participation of as many active patrollers as possible will matter this month. If you can review during September, please make articles your priority. Every article that is reviewed is a meaningful reduction in the backlog. With the queue at its current size, even a relatively small increase in the number of articles each patroller reviews can add up to a substantial difference over the course of the month. This is a hybrid drive, so redirect reviewing is still included. Redirects can be a useful way for newer patrollers to get comfortable with NPP and can help people build up to reviewing articles. However, the main goal of this drive is to tackle the article backlog, and experienced patrollers are particularly encouraged to spend as much of their available reviewing time on articles as they can. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Each article review will earn 1 point, while each redirect review will earn 0.2 points. Streak awards will be given out based on consistently hitting point thresholds for each week of the drive. Barnstars will also be granted for re-reviewing articles previously reviewed by other patrollers during the drive. If you have been thinking about doing more NPP, this is an especially good month to jump in. Whether you can review a few pages or hundreds, every review helps. And if you are already an active patroller, please consider whether you can put in some additional time during September to help bring the backlog back under control. Interested in taking part? Sign up here.
You're receiving this message because you are a new page patroller. To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

I'm finally done

Hi Generalissima, remember me? Yeah, I only just completed my African buffalo project after 2 and a half months. I didn't expect it to take this long but then again life got in the way, like that time my impacted teeth tried to force their through. Took me out for some time but I'm back. So I apologize for the long wait. But yeah, would like to hear your thoughts before I think of taking it to GA. Wolverine X-eye (talk) 19:47, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

@Wolverine X-eye: This article is in pretty good shape! If I were to do a GAN review, there's a couple things I'd change

• MOS:NOTES advises against naming the sources section "bibliography". It's also in a bit of a strange location above the citations; I'd place it as a subsection of "References" and rename it to "Works cited" or similar. I'd also convert your journal cites to SFNs- stuff like Prins 1989 has a 24-page range, and that can be very difficult for a reviewer to verify. Since you had some reviewers take issue with source verifiability in the past with your nominations, it'd be a good idea to make sure everything is cited as closely as possible - to play it safe, use SFNs for everything with multiple pages.
• Some inconsistencies with citation formatting - not a problem at GAN level, but would come up if you take this to FAC.
• I'd discuss the distinguishing features of different subspecies if that information is avaliable. If this is possible, it may be good to specify the subspecies of the pictures where this is not stated.
• Prose is generally of quite high quality.
• Sourcing quality is however very good. Everything seems to be cited to reputable academic sources.

All in all, converting more cites to SFNs for verifiability reasons is the only real change I'd make before nominating. I can do a preliminary spot-check after that. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 20:21, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

I am done with the sfn thing and if I may ask, do you mind going more into detail about what citation inconsistencies you observe? Also, regarding the subspecies matter, where would you recommend I write such information? Wolverine X-eye (talk) 00:40, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Hi, I'm sending you another notification just in case my previous one got buried. If you find the time, could you look into my above message? Best, Wolverine X-eye (talk) 06:23, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

@Wolverine X-eye: Apologies for the delay; has been a busy week. I've checked through parts of Caron et al. and I'm not seeing any source-text integrity issues. Only minor issue is that the cite to p. 356 should be pp. 356-357. I'm impressed with how you've managed to summarize quite a bit of information into a fairly small prose size; this takes a lot of effort.

As for inconsistencies, they seem to have been resolved. You use different formats of ISBN (compare Prins to Kingdon for instance). I personally would promote this to GA now, so I think it's good to nominate it. Again, apologies for the delay, and great work with this article. You're a dedicated editor and I think the encyclopedia rather benefits from having you back around! Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 22:34, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Recursive islands and lakes

I have been thanked by another editor for reverting your apparently unjustified edit on Recursive islands and lakes with edit summary "removed small lake islands - way too many to list here" with my own edit summary comment "arbitrary blanking and removal sourced content. Discuss such edits in talk first" and you have come back and reverted and this time with just edit summary "This is not sourced". Are you able to explain your actions in more detail as you have a long history of excellent contributions to the community ? ChaseKiwi (talk) 01:31, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

The content I removed was both unsourced (except for Crater Lake), and of very unclear inclusion criteria to the broader list. If the nearly 1,000 islands in lakes on islands in Finland alone claim in the "Islands in lakes on islands" section is to be believed, there must surely be hundreds of thousands of lake islands out there; we can surely not list all of them, and there are not any sources provided that the ones I removed are especially noteworthy in one way or another. You would need a source about lake islands as a general concept for that, not just an article about any specific lake island. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 02:13, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

So you admit removing sourced content but you removed more sources than this. You are mistaken on the notability issue and I hope you will accept a trout. You also admit to your potential subjectivity which is an issue for the articles talk page not for arbitrary action. Specifically:

1. You removed the source for location and size of Mercer Island.
2. Mercer Island, Washington that has an article on its own which suggests notability , and is connected by the Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge which has notability.
3. Wizard Island has an article so is notable

I invite you to revert. ChaseKiwi (talk) 03:11, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

The notability of the islands are not in question. Their notability on a list of recursive islands in lakes is. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 03:51, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

So you have shifted the focus, with distraction from the core point of an initial inaccurate edit summary when challenged. I have restored the sourced notable content and removed the unsourced content. Please move further debate on subjective issues outside Wikipedia guidelines to the talk page of the article.

Apropos of Nothing in Particular...

Kudos on writing User:Generalissima/Erosion, which echo my thoughts. Since I became an admin in 2007 I have been a huge proponent of generous use of semi-protection (especially over the headache that is/was Pending Changes when that came in). Highlights the biggest value of GA/FA by far, which is a consensus version to refer back to after article erosion. Most of my FAs were pretty esoteric so not subject to erosion as much as others.

Historic places in Kāpiti

Hi! First I wanted to say thank you for all the work you've done so far on lists of historic places in New Zealand. I recently noticed that the List of historic places in the Kāpiti Coast District wasn't up to the FL-level of quality that the lists you've made (e.g. Kaikōura) are, so I have tried to emulate your formatting (with some tweaks) to bring it up to that level. If you have any time, I was wondering if you could help me get it to Featured List? I've never done any kind of WP process like that before; I'm happy to ask elsewhere for peer review but thought you might be keen since I saw its a project you're working on :) GeorgmentO (talk) 08:18, 5 October 2026 (UTC)

Quickfailing of 1866 Liechtenstein general election

Hi, I see that you failed my GA nom of 1866 Liechtenstein general election for failing to meet criteria 3. I have to completely disagree with this assesment — "broad in its coverage" does not require a fixed length for articles, it stipulates that the article covers all the main points of the topic in sufficient detail while staying on topic. I am confident to say from my research that the content is exhaustive of the available sources. Furthermore, the article is long enough in prose to be (theoretically) eligible for DYK. This is also the same for the 1890 elections.

I would expect you to be able to prove a negative that there is missed or insufficient coverage to quickfail the review. I will likely renominate the articles or take it to WT:GAN to get further input. Thanks. TheBritinator (talk) 15:02, 5 October 2026 (UTC)

November music

story · music · places

Congratulations to your Wikicup successes! November begins with a Bach cantata that ends with a love duet (see story) in which he invites to the wedding and she quotes a bridal song. - Judith Blegen was on the same page until recently, and I hope to see Marisa Manchado there soon. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:44, 3 November 2026 (UTC)

Herbert Blomstedt, remembered here. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:29, 10 November 2026 (UTC)
