Thank you for your note! My first Christmas story is about Gelobet seist du, Jesu Christ, BWV 91, 300 years today, and its song, 500 years old. Enjoy the season! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:28, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for notifying me @Gerda Arendt. Regards. MSincccc (talk) 18:51, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

FAC/PR comments

MS, while I appreciate the support at my FAC, I have some concerns about the depth of your engagement at these processes, and it makes me concerned about your level of understanding of them. Often you make suggestions or comments where the rationale isn't clear and nominators must ask for it. Conversely, when nominators explain their reasoning for things, sometimes you don't respond, but continue to make similar suggestions. In a productive review, reviewers and nominators discuss and clarify themselves when needed.

I see that you've reached out to some experienced users like Tim_O'Doherty in light of Tim riley's suggestions to you at Wikipedia:Peer_review/Kenneth_Clark/archive1, but some of your recent FA comments seem to suggest you're still focusing more on light aesthetic suggestions and not really engaging with the substance of each article.

Your comments at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/What a Merry-Go-Round/archive1 seem to indicate that you didn't read much of what I wrote. For example, after I explained about my preference for false titles, you didn't respond to the substance of what I said, but went on to suggest making the same change in two more places. At one point you suggested inserting several unnecessary articles into a pair of short sentences and wrote that you had "broken up the sentence for clarity." I asked what you meant and you didn't reply. You identified that some paragraphs are only one sentence, but didn't actually make any suggestion nor reply to my comment, so it's difficult to understand what you were looking for.

Your responses at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Battle of Köse Dağ/archive1 feel similarly disconnected. Three minor prose suggestions, two pings to the nominator in under 24 hours, then swapping to support before the nom even responds to you.

I think your feedback would be more helpful to nominators if you tried to ensure that your suggestions are grounded in the MOS and are more fully explained to begin with, rather than waiting for nominators to ask why you want these suggestions made. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 20:51, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

PMC, I entirely share your irritation with MSincccc's well meant but not conspicuously useful contributions at peer review and FAC, but we should bear in mind that he is still a schoolboy, and has – as we all had when schoolchildren – a lot to learn. (I cannot say, looking back at the 1960s, that the young Tim Riley was any less opinionated, ignorant and annoying.) I think, to misquote Churchill, that this is something up with which we must put. And (cliché alert) at the end of the day it is good that Wikipedia is attracting young editors, however much they exasperate the older ones. – Tim riley talk 21:25, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Image manipulation that fueled speculation about Catherine E Middleton

Hi there, I found the archived discussions about the image manipulation incident that fueled the speculations about her health. I couldn't help but notice your significant involvement in shaping the article's current coverage. From reading your comments in other discussions, it's clear you're deeply invested in determining what constitutes encyclopedic value regarding the british royals, and I respect this dedication and your time it must takes to curate this content.

Your GA nomination of Premiership of Liz Truss

The article Premiership of Liz Truss you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Premiership of Liz Truss for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article.

Cultural Charities

Hi, I understand the main page discussion has been closed for a second time now. But I was wondering what you think of the fact of even just mentioning the film premieres he attended in combination with BAFTA that would count as charitable events as a separate section based on this: Royal Film Performance I didn't even realize until today that some premieres were for charity or I would have included that information earlier. Obviously I won't add it myself, but I think it is something to think about it addition to having a sports section (that includes sports events like "a bandy event in Stockholm in January 2018.") Four film premieres for charity (if that's the right number) seems just about as relevant as something like that. newsjunkie (talk) 12:25, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

To be clear I am not talking about any Hobbit information at this point beyond the widely known/reported on attendance. Just noting the film premieres done for charity and the attendance at BAFTA. newsjunkie (talk) 12:53, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi @MSincccc I was wondering what your thoughts would be on adding something like this as a "Culture" section:

In support of the The Film and Television Charity, William has attended Royal Film Performance premieres of Top Gun: Maverick,Spectre (2015 film),, Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom, and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

As president of BAFTA, William has regularly attended the British Academy Film Awards where he has in some years presented the BAFTA Fellowship. to recipients such as Kathleen Kennedy (producer) and Helen Mirren. At the 2024 BAFTA Awards, he told BBC executive Charlotte Moore that he was a "big fan of Christopher Nolan", who ended up winning that year for Oppenheimer (film). newsjunkie (talk) 21:24, 26 January 2025 (UTC)
