  • Please do not template me using a level 1 warning - I don't appreciate being welcomed when I have, under various aliases, been editing here since 22 May 2008 (and using this one since 7 March 2013). You may trout me instead. Any other templates are fine to use.
  • Most discussion boards - AfD, ANI etc. - requires that you notify me of any discussion I should be aware of - DON'T bother. Tag me with {{u|Launchballer}} on the page instead. I am aware that with some noticeboards it is considered bad practice to not do so, however please take this as me opting out. (Update January 2023; it appears we now have bots to do this instead so doubly don't bother.)

    DYK for Houdini (Eminem song)

    [edit]

    On5 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Houdini (Eminem song), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Eminem promoted "Houdini" with a video in which David Blaine eats a wine glass? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Houdini (Eminem song). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Houdini (Eminem song)), 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.

    piri images

    [edit]

    hey @Launchballer have just added an image of piri to wikimedia commons that you might want to use, here is the direct link if you want to put it in the article somewhere, will leave it up to you though! Image George (talk) 20:31, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    You don't need to ping me on my talk page as I'll get the message anyway. I plan on making that image the lead, except I'm still deciding what alt text to use (for that and the other new one) and I think both could use a crop. Plus I genuinely can't think of what those things on her arms are called, I've got as far as "A young blonde woman in a pink low-cut dress and fibula-length white fluffy boots holding with a microphone to her mouth." (Incidentally, I also went to the EartH gig; if you saw a tall, very fat guy in a black coat with a receding hairline and glasses at the back, that was almost certainly me.)--Launchballer 10:17, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    All good! Also I'd probably go with some variation of 'fluffy wrist cuffs' or something like that as similar things appear on google when you type that in. Don't think I spotted you at the gig either but funny knowing we were both there haha, I was barricade and she handed me the mic for for the song vote on what she played in the set!

    A well deserved barnstar for you, Launchballer!

    [edit]
    The YouTube Barnstar
    Thought you should definitely be awarded this after all your help with getting the James Marriott article to GA, it looks amazing and he still goes on about the fact that he has a wikipedia page in his videos to this day!

    DYK for Sydnie Christmas

    [edit]

    On16 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Sydnie Christmas, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the winnerofthe seventeenth seriesofBritain's Got Talent was the first individual woman to win the show without a dog? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Sydnie Christmas. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Sydnie Christmas), 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.

    A request, pease

    [edit]

    Mindful of the banner at the head of your page, please may I ask you for two things:

    1. Please do not remove AFC review history. It is important for future reviewers to know what has gone before
    2. Please improve the accuracy of your edit summaries

    I hope you are on the way back to health 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 11:23, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I don't plan on hanging around for a reviewer as I've already proved notability. (I was about to move it to mainspace before having to drop what I was doing to head out.) Your comment regarding my edit summaries is a fairer cop, and I will endeavour to be more careful.--Launchballer 13:01, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Your GA nomination of Tasha Ghouri

    [edit]

    Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Tasha Ghouri you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period.

    Your GA nomination of Tasha Ghouri

    [edit]

    The article Tasha Ghouri you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Tasha Ghouri and Talk:Tasha Ghouri/GA1 for issues which need to be addressed.
