- Prayer for Ukraine --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:53, 10 March 2022 (UTC) Your RFA opposeIt is one thing to have your own idiosyncratic rules for how you vote on RFAs, and it is another to bait editors who say stupid things in response to your vote. Please don't make comments such as
I tell people to just let Greg have his say and ignore it, but do people listen to me? *sigh* Now, that out of the way, I'm going to disagree slightly with the "must have 2 GAs" criteria, simply because sometimes that might not actually be sufficient. All GAs are not equal, and on some niche subjects like obscure species of mushrooms or minor hurricanes in Antarctica, it may be possible to meet the "broad in coverage" part of the GA criteria without too much effort. While working on a Million award-worthy subject to GA takes far more time and effort, and is more likely to be the place where you'll encounter disputes, petty MOS wonkery, and all the general things trying to maintain a popular article at GA status will throw at you (especially if it involves living people or ongoing events - in fact, I would avoid taking any BLP to GA if you value your sanity).

Thank you for improving articles in August! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:28, 20 August 2022 (UTC) Such as below! Will you take it to DYK? Should I? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:49, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
Your GA nomination of Haaland v. BrackeenThe article Haaland v. Brackeen you nominated as a good article has passed DYK for Haaland v. BrackeenOn 4 September 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Haaland v. Brackeen, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a pending case at the United States Supreme Court, Haaland v. Brackeen, "could completely erase tribal sovereignty"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Haaland v. Brackeen. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Haaland v. Brackeen), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. — Maile (talk) 00:02, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Joseph ReddingHi GregJackP. I notice you worked on the United States v. Kagama case. I just created an article on the lawyer involved in that case, Joseph Redding. I was more interested in Redding as an opera composer and librettist, and as a person involved in the founding of the San Francisco Symphony. I thought you might like to assist on building out content on his law career. Apparently he was also a polymathic chess expert (see https://www.readex.com/readex-report/issues/volume-7-issue-2/untold-talent-joseph-redding-profiling-polymathic-chess) 4meter4 (talk) 16:27, 4 April 2024 (UTC) Good article reassessment for Berghuis v.
