Translation?

I was directed here from another user for English to Arabic script translating. I'm not sure if you're still active - but it would be 2021 Nasarawa massacre. Cheers, -- • Apollo468•  21:36, 5 January 2022 (UTC)

WP:AFC Helper News

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

  • AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
  • The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future. Cheers, Primefac, via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:59, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Women in Red

Hi there, Elias Ziade, and welcome to Women in Red. It's always good to have an experienced editor keen to help us improve the coverage of women, in this case Lebanese women. If you have not already done so, you might find it useful to look through our Primer for creating women's biographies. You no doubt have lots of names in mind; if not you can always use our Redlist index. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 07:22, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your welcoming note @Ipigott. I was looking for the documentation, and you made it much easier for me to work within the Women in Red initiative framework. I'm looking forward to contributing, not only during this month, but also in the long run. el.ziade (talkallam) 13:07, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Promotion of Royal necropolis of Byblos

Congratulations, Elias Ziade! The article you nominated, Royal necropolis of Byblos, has been promoted to featured status, recognizing it as one of the best articles on Wikipedia. The nomination discussion has been archived.
This is a rare accomplishment and you should be proud. If you would like, you may nominate it to appear on the Main page as Today's featured article. Keep up the great work! Cheers, Gog the Mild (talk) via FACBot (talk) 00:06, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
August songs

Thank you today for the article, "bout a group of shaft and chamber tombs that housed the remains of Bronze Age Gebalite Kings. A chance landslide in the early 1920s uncovered the first of the underground tombs. Some of the burial chambers that escaped looting contained a great number of funerary goods; among these were ornate royal Egyptian gifts bearing the names of Twelfth Dynasty pharaohs. Inscriptions found in the tombs allowed the identification of some of the buried Kings. The most important of these finds was the famed Ahiram sarcophagus. The story of the re-emergence of the ancient city of Byblos/Gebal, and the subsequent discovery of the royal tombs, is reminiscent of Indiana Jones movies."! - I have a FAC open, in case of interest. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:00, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Congratulations! Very happy that I reviewed it at GA—learnt a lot—and equally happy it's received a star and the place on the main page. I hope to join you soon, but unfortunately real life keeps getting in the way. Nearly there, though. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:41, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
@AirshipJungleman29 I feel you! I have the same problem. I edit sporadically, but stay focused on one subject at a time. It helps a great deal! Come back slowly habibi, and make it a fun activity, not another chore. el.ziade (talkallam) 08:24, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your usual objective support and kindness @Gerda Arendt! This was a great day for me, I am so proud of this article which took me a lot of research and time. Your words of encouragement mean a lot to me. I will be preparing another FA submission in the near future because this motivated me a lot. el.ziade (talkallam) 08:21, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

September music

September songs

Thank you! - This rose pic was taken on 11 Sep 2021, and that day in 2022 was full of music, Tag des offenen Denkmals, not only singing in church and rehearsals for Verdi's Requiem, but two concerts at special places pictured, one a synagogue (pictured on its wall). Today three DYK: a piece we'll perform on Sunday, a violinist we heard in June playing the Berg Concerto (my brother played in the orchestra), and a Youth Orchestra shaped by a conductor who recently died. Almost too much of a good thing. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:33, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
