On 26 June 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Miracles of Gautama Buddha, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Buddha, to whom many miracles were attributed, considered the "miracle of instruction" to be the greatest because it would not be taken for a mere magic trick? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Miracles of Gautama Buddha. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Miracles of Gautama Buddha), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

I wondered if you had seen this article, for what it's worth.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 23:01, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Neat, thanks! I haven't seen that one yet. I will add it to my list. Wikiman5676 (talk) 02:33, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Found one more.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 23:46, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Last one, this is the one in French, I mentioned.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 12:41, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

One more, to keep it up! Unfortunately, the chapter in the same book about Mahākāśyapa is not online , I'm going to have to ask around.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 21:43, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Great!! Thank you so much for the sources! These will be very valuable for my planned expansions of that page. Wikiman5676 (talk) 21:48, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

looks like the French I learned in HS and college will finally come in handy. Wikiman5676 (talk) 22:01, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to [email protected], so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at [email protected].

Thank you!

Thought you might wanna weigh in here, as you once contributed to the main article. I don't know the person who's proposing deletion.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 13:21, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

thanks. although i dont have much of a case for keeping that page. Wikiman5676 (talk) 03:39, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Previously, I have proposed to you to use this article as our base article to make a Good Series per Wikipedia criteria. Presently, I am still checking whether the topic is notable enough as a separate article. Alternatively, we could just simply make a list article with all disciples that are being discussed in reliable sources.

For now, I have copied the lead of your article about Śāriputra to this article. Perhaps you would like to check whether it is okay like that, and if so, if you would like to add the references.

I finished Mahākāśyapa at 64 kb! Might have to split later. Will check what the GA reviewer says. I might continue with Upāli. Not sure yet.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 16:18, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good! A list article with a good summary of each disciple is a good strategy if there is not enough sources on Ten Principal Disciples itself. Something like what I did for Four Heavenly Kings (Taiwan) Wikiman5676 (talk) 17:20, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. Did do a Google Search on the Ten Disciples, but all the tell-tale signs for non-notability are there. Will try searching a little more.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 21:57, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps the Ten Principal Disciples page is still feasible. I am still keeping it for the moment.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 07:24, 29 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

FYI.--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 08:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe interesting for you?--Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 23:58, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I will definitely be reading and using this. Thank you so much! Wikiman5676 (talk) 02:25, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The article

The article Relics of Sariputta and Moggallana you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Relics of Sariputta and Moggallana for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.
