Hallo Girmes2, ich habe einen Artikel über die oben genannte russische Klarinettenlegende entworfen; er steht hier: User:Gisel/Mozgovenko . Da mein Englisch zu wünschen übrig lässt, bitte ich dich, dir einmal den Text anzusehen und, wo notwendig, zu korrigieren, bevor der Artikel dann online geht. Vielen Dank im Voraus! --

Your DYK hook about Arik Brauer and his wide-ranging artistic accomplishments drew 12,337 page views (514 per hour) while on the Main Page. It is one of the most viewed hooks so far during the month of February and has earned a place on the Best of February list. Keep up the great work! Cbl62 (talk) 14:30, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your help with cleaning up the Sandra Mann article! Do you think it is ready to be nominated for a DYK? Today is the 5th day since it’s creation. Thriley (talk) 08:41, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Yes, why not. But it's better to ask @Gerda Arendt:, because she has more experience in DYK. Grimes2 (talk) 11:08, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for asking. Thriley, it would need a ref at the end of each paragraph (but none in the lead unless it's not cited below which it should be). I'd like an infobox but no must. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:22, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for your meticulous and extensive work on this page. Fact is that after 2 or 3 hours spent on an article, I feel an urgent need to switch to another one even if I have to come back to it later. 23,800 ko in a row asks for concentration... For what it's worth, links left in red usually mean I'll translate them some time later otherwise I use the appropriate template. I doubt thousands of Anglophones are waiting impatiently to read this translated articles anyway. Thanks again. After all, is there a possibility this page could qualify as GA ? Better ask Gerda Arendt. LouisAlain (talk) 21:11, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

My concern is, that creation reviewer put the article into draft, or even for deletion. To avoid this, you can use the template "In creation" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:In_creation . Grimes2 (talk) 21:35, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

GA: Gerda: "it would need a ref at the end of each paragraph". You didn't ping @Gerda Arendt: Grimes2 (talk) 16:09, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

The "ref at the end of each paragraph" is for DYK. GA should be harder, see

D 812 - is that a good Good article? I think no, two others think no, but the creator and reviewer think yes. Better don't ask me. I will do nothing about that one. This one, I haven't even looked, and I'm "booked" for the week, mostly by you ;) - Grün, Reitz ... --Gerda Arendt (talk

Hello, Grimes2

I've just created an article about Cyrille Dubois, an opera singer. He's French and has already sung in France but also at Wigmore Hall , at Glyndebourne and in Venice , in Zurich, at La Monnaie in Brussels and so on... I have submitted my draft to review but was amazed to see that it wouln't be published before 4 months. Could you help me please, I'm used to writing on the french wikipedia, and actually I have written an article about Cyrille Dubois in french. Could you kindly have a look ? You'll see it has many good references in English. User:Pimprenel/sandbox

• Guten morgen Grimes2,

wie bereits der deutsche und der frz. Artikel ist jetzt auch der Englische so zu aktualisieren, dass in erster Linie das, was jetzt ist, dargestellt wird, also die Firmen, die Marken und die unter den einzeln Marken angebotenen Instrumente und die Produktionsstätten, in denen welche der über 400 Instrumente und ihrer Varianten hergestellt werden. Der geschichtliche Abriss sollte angemessen, aber nicht ausufernd sein. Und selbstverständlich können auch nicht die 400 Instrumente im einzelnen beschrieben werden.

Ich habe den engl. Artikel zunächst hierhin kopiert: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Gisel/Buffet .

Dann habe ich eine Menge gestrichen und einige Absätze neu geschrieben, d. h. zunächst auf deutsch vorgeschrieben und dann übersetzt, wiederum vermutlich mit Fehlern., weswegen ich dich nochmals um Mithilfe bitte. Am besten, du siehst dir nochmal den ganzen Artikel an. Vielen Dank!--

Hello, Grimes2! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Jenyire2 20:07, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Sorry for all the time and work you dedicated to this one only to be rejected. As always, it all depends on the mood and whims of some who expect perfection at first shot and act counter productively.

I once posted on the main a draft such as it was after having refs. and corrections without any permission from anybody. It worked.

Finally, thank you! Too short for DYK, though, unless you find a bit. Friederike Mayröcker died, sadly: a giant list of awards, and you are the expert. Wishes: could you sift what needs to be mentioned, and source those? Could you make a list of the references for these awards that come again and again, to just pick it by prize name? (Then I'd have to bother you less?) I'm busy with other things right now, so no edit conflict ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:49, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Hi Grimes2, you accepted a request made at the GOCE Requests page to copy-edit the article Allan Pettersson. Your last edit to the article was at 08:54 (UTC) 23 May 2021 and you haven't yet declared the copy-edit done on the Requests page. Please tell us whether the copy-edit is completed—or whether you intend to complete it—so the request can be archived, left alone or returned to the list for someone else to work on. If no update is received and you make no further edits to the article in seven days a GOCE coordinator will strike your acceptance and return the request to the list. Thank you.

Hello:

The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article Allan Pettersson has been completed.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

I did leave several inline tags where I felt a citation or clarification is needed, otherwise my edits were minor. Generally the lede should not contain citations unless the subject matter could be open to debate. So, I moved the citation and his date of birth into the body of the text. I left the remaining citations since the statements they cite could be "debatable".

I disagree with the GA reviewer over the length of the lede. According to the Manual of Style, for an article of this length, its length is appropriate. It adequately sums up his life and work. Regards,

Twofingered Typist (talk) 13:04, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

Looking at this and others, I really don't know what came first some of these texts or "our" article.

I think much of the small print isn't helpful to readers not knowing German, I also wonder about numbers for these old recordings. We could say "mostly Polydor" and mention labels only if different, for less clutter, no?

Hi! I reverted this edit and the previous one at Rosemarie Trockel because both seemed to me completely pointless – well, adding hyphens to an ISBN seems to be a net negative, and capitalising the name of a template doesn't improve readability either – why SHOUT if you don't need to? But maybe there's some consensus somewhere that I'm not aware of, so I thought I'd better ask you. Personally I can't see any point in those hyphens, and note that the BL, the LoC and WorldCat seem to agree with me (the BnF does not). Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:06, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

I notice that you removed the "where" tag I added to the lede. This sentence: "According to Bachtrack, Widmann was the third most performed contemporary composer in 2018." does not specify where. Is this in the world, Europe, Germany? I checked the pdf link and the page that came up does not mention Widmann. When you clarify this, you'll also need to do the same in the body of the article.

Congratulations on taking the article to GA status.

Regards,

Thank you! Grimes2 (talk) 21:14, 6 August 2021 (UTC)

You apparently used a script to substitute en-dashes for hyphens in date ranges here at White House. However, those date ranges were parts of satellite reference-names; and the script neglected to change the names of the list-defined anchors, leaving the satellites undefined (see the error messages). Please be more careful in the future. Dhtwiki (talk) 22:48, 8 August 2021 (UTC)

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Friedrich Nietzsche Prize, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Volksstimme.

Thank you for the below, and regular help! Could you please check out a new ref Vierhaus for Erich Witte, and the Kutsch/Riemens entry for him that I can't see. Leaving now for hours to come, - he's due to be nominated today, one of 3, sigh (the others done at least). Will I ever get to Peter Fleischmann?? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:27, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

Don't have access to Kutsch/Riemens anymore, I don't know what is wrong. Grimes2 (talk) 14:11, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

I've now access to Kutsch again. Grimes2 (talk) 10:21, 19 August 2021 (UTC)

There are absolutly no references for Witte (exception: Kutsch). Is he really notable and justifies a nomination? Vierhaus cites Kutsch. Grimes2 (talk) 14:47, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

Mistake on my part. Witte is notable (plenty of sources). Grimes2 (talk) 08:14, 17 August 2021 (UTC)

Guten Tag Grimes2, ich habe den o. g. Artikel wesentlich erweitert. Den Entwurf dazu kannst hier sehen:

Sad that Teresa Żylis-Gara. I'm determined to bring her to GA some day, but what she needs today is refs for the recordings. KR is good for some but not all. Could you perhaps move the general ref to only those covered by it? - RL for me now. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:22, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the work and time you put on this one ! As far as I understand, you stayed more than one hour in the wee hour of the day adding 2,300 KO.s and at least 5 new references. How you do that is beyond me (and also ziemlich discouraging...). Yet, I'm not sure the situation can perdure like that.

• -1 I feel a tad guilty to add to your daily load of work.
• -2 The primary issue was about the lack of references in my translations (which I substituted with "fake" ones as they said). Now this point is moot since I translate only articles with as many as possible references from the beginning. When some will want to get me out, they can't be able to use that pretence (although...). Another one will do the trick anyway.
• -3 You're volontarily doing the work that not one single rewiever does and to me, there's something wrong here in this Wiki way of running some management issues.
• -4 @Gerda Arendt: rightfully raised the issue of the attribution and as is often the case, it took me some minutes to understand what she meant (yes, I'm slow at the uptake) and also that by proceeding the way I did the history of new articles and your additions were lost, which is quite unfair since the articles wouldn't be what they are now weren't it for you. Maybe can someone show me how to switch from the sandbox to the main without losing the history and I'll know how not to deprive you from your due. Gebt dem Caesar, was dem Caesar gehört. I'll take care of the usual task regarding categories, "Content in this edit is translated from the existing German Wikipedia article at [[de:Nicolas Mahler]]; see its history for attribution.", what links to this article etc.

I'm currently working on de:Lorenz Cantador which has 27 references which of course, I'll check like I usually do, and I can't reasonnably expect you to spend another hour and more on the rewiev part. When I've finished the job (that is today), I intend to put it on the main and let the article benefit the corrections of other users as is the received habit, if the so-called "collaborative" encyclopedia motto has still a shred of meaning.

I notice you added refs from the AustriaWiki im Austria-Forum site which I was told sometimes ago wasn't to be used for whatever reason. Since then, I've never linked to this site, following the advice I received. It often happens that some user contradicts another one and do or undo what the former did. Duhh ! What do I do ? @Gerda Arendt: also informed me that Operabase wasn't a reliable reference but when I can't find one single ref. I do with available ressources. This Sacrificial lamb does what he believes is the right thing to do. But since I've decided to translate articles with firm references only, this shouldn't be any longer an issue.

What a drag it is getting older. LouisAlain (talk) 09:44, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

Rolling Stones top. Yes the references are time-consuming. In the last time your are doing a good job in references. You can check the references for dead ones, and overtake that part of work. Grimes2 (talk) 09:58, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

Cwmhiraeth (talk) 00:02, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for your input on that one. As regards Infoboxes, I used to add them at the beginning (May 2016) and within days Silverxxx told me not to. Being a newbie here, I learned the lesson and have never added any infobox to my translations (like I don't have enough problems here).

Hallo Grimes2, vielen Dank für deine Mitarbeit. Wie du ja schon bemerkt hast, wurde der Artikel unter dem Lemma Contra-alto clarinet veröffentlicht. Aber es war eine Schwergeburt. Da alle denkbaren Lemmata schon vorhanden waren und als Umleitung auf Contrabass clarinet dienten, habe ich Schnelllöschung des Lemmas Contralto clarinet beantragt. Diese hat ein Admin abgelehnt. Dann habe ich bei dem Lemma Contra-Alto clarinet erneut um Löschung gebeten, mit einer ausführlicheren Begründung. Daraufhin erschien dort plötzlich anstelle der Umleitung ein kurzer Artikel über das Instrument. Der User schrieb dazu, der früher schon einmal an dieser Stelle vorhandene Artikel hätte nicht gelöscht werden dürfen. Das Lemma müsse aber nicht gelöscht werden, um den wiedereingestellten Artikel zu verbessern. Also habe ich diesen mit unserem Artikel überschrieben. Nur: als Pagecreator ist weiterhin der aufgeführt, der 2004 den Artikel aufgesetzt hat. ---  Gisbert ツ (talk)  Illustrate Wikipedia !   15:41, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

Today: see yourself, read about a hymn praying to not be on earth in vain, about a comics artist whose characters have character (another collaboration of the "perennial gang", broken by one of us banned, thank you for staying!), and in memory of the last prima donna assoluta, Edita Gruberová. I had to go to two grave sites last week, one who died now, one who died 10 years ago, so standing upright and in black seems appropriate.
