Thank you for improving articles in November! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:40, 20 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I uploaded pics of a trip that was a 10-day celebration of a 16 November event, but the day was also when a dear friend died. We sang Hevenu shalom aleichem at his funeral yesterday, and it was good. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:52, 30 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Cremastra, I saw this and wondered why you think it isn't a copyright violation. Nobody (talk) 07:58, 3 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

@1AmNobody24 Because although it claims it's 98% match, the match is just a rather long book title that's cited in the references section. I may be missing something here, but I don't think there's any copyvio. Cheers, Cremastra ‹ u — c › 13:29, 3 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

I think you got that wrong. The book title is "Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe, 1500-1700" not the whole section. Nobody (talk) 13:33, 3 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

I'm sorry, I don't understand this comment – which section? Copypatrol [1] shows five matches: the first four are the phrase "Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe, 1500-1700", which appears once in the article and four times in the source; the fifth match is the generic short phrase "on the Black Sea steppe". An earwig check returns nothing over 10%. Cremastra ‹ u — c › 13:36, 3 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

This shows better what i mean. Nobody (talk) 14:08, 3 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

@1AmNobody24 Yes, that's my bad. I didn't see the "iThenticate report" link and was going only off the comparison in copypatrol. I guess the text is somewhere in the book we don't have access to. I'll take the necessary steps to remove the copyvio.

Sorry for the confusion,

You are a remarkable editor in many ways. You would be a good administrator, in my opinion, and appear to be well qualified. You personify an administrator without tools and have gained my support already!

Well, thank you. :) I'm not looking for the mop just yet, but I will bear your support in mind if I decide to go that way next year. Happy editing, Cremastra ‹ u — c › 22:27, 9 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Best of luck! Maliner (talk) 22:28, 9 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello Cremastra, you closed the RfD as Keep, but did not remove the RfD tags from the redirect. Jay 💬 22:20, 11 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Fixed thank you very much for telling me. Cremastra ‹ u — c › 22:31, 11 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks! I had the idea a little while ago but didn't act on it until now.

Hopefully it gets used. :) Cremastra ‹ u — c › 21:39, 14 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your assistance! Because I recently brought up copyvio issues on the article page, I brusquely removed my talk page message when you were clearly referring to a different thing. Silly me. Thanks again for looking out!Plasticwonder (talk) 00:47, 15 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

No worries, and thanks for the brownie. Cremastra ‹ u — c › 01:40, 15 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

How did this happen? Can't see it on your edit history. Beshogur (talk) 13:23, 28 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Try this search instead – it's just above dwarf lizard. And it looks like ref has since been improved. Cremastra 🎄 u — c 🎄 15:41, 28 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Oh, I see know. The website is down, and turned into a illegal betting website. I was confused. Beshogur (talk) 16:23, 28 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
