January music

Happy new year 2025! Today, pictured on the Main page, Tosca, in memory of her first appearance on stage OTD in 1900, and of principal author Brian Boulton. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:25, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Perfect! And Happy New Year to you, too, if slightly belated :) - Alison ^talk 18:19, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! - Today I have a composer (trumpeter, conductor) on the main page who worked closely with another who became GA yesterday, - small world! To celebrate: mostly flowers pics from vacation ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:42, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have more vacation pics to offer, and today's story of Werner Bardenhewer. I took the pic, and it was my DYK on his 90th birthday, in both English and German. He spent the day in Africa, and after his return said - chatting after a mass of thanks he celebrated at Mariä Heimsuchung - that we'd have to talk about these articles. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:21, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Feminism and Folklore 2025

Hi, I have noticed that you started Feminism and Folklore 2025. Would you like to be an organizer for English (local) Wikipedia? Warm Regards, ZI Jony ^(Talk) 09:51, 18 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I'd rather not TBH, as I'm more present in my regional language Wikipedia. The only reason I started the stub was because the dates were incorrect and because someone started it on gawiki, which had leaked over into WikiData. IMO, the article content needs to come from a WMF rep, as my understanding is that the 2024 competition is still in progress until maybe March or so - Alison ^talk 18:21, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

Proposed deletion of Maria Vorontsova (disambiguation)

The article Maria Vorontsova (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Disambiguation page not required (WP:ONEOTHER). Primary topic article has a hatnote to the only other use.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
