02:5602:56, 14 December 2024 diff hist −3,906 Blue Man Group Reverted addition of Influences section by 98.235.152.243: the same as the section removed in 2020, fails verification (1 source, repeated in 3 refs). See User:Robert lavery in Talk:Blue Man Group/Archive 1#Fictional "Influences" section. As noted at the unnameable site, amusing but a hoax.

And objecting to the dualistic argument. You are free to disagree as vehemently as you wish, though I do think that at this point, as an ally, you risk displacing others in the discussion who have direct experience.

03:1703:17, 3 December 2024 diff hist +2,937 Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sumarr and Vetr Keep and improve. Noting a useful source.

09:2309:23, 26 November 2024 diff hist +271 Swimbridge →Jack Russell Terrier: Ref'd the pub and sign, Telegraph ref (acc. to which the sign pic is based on a painting of Trump).

03:3903:39, 26 November 2024 diff hist +4,198 Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard →New seemingly-related group of good-faith but deleterious West African copyeditors: Responding to the request to highlight specific errors, building on Fram's diff; the preceding edit by another participant was worse. Kudos for the long, specific edit summaries, but they confirm that the project is ill-conceived and should be stopped at once. (BTW: changes were made to intro, not short description.) This edit is not an endorsement of the WMF.

23:5223:52, 25 November 2024 diff hist −1,742 I Go Dye Extensive copyediting and tweaks, starting with the agreement error in the intro.

11:0811:08, 25 November 2024 diff hist +1,687 Bank of Italy Building (San Jose, California) Updated w/ AI incubator, wound up extensively rewriting, moving history into body section out of intro, linking to historic district & History Park. Residential refit has started; replaced Twitter ref w/ better. Nightclub history seems gone, Metro Silicon Valley has bad archiving. No linkable city list of hist. sites. Commonscat inline; archived version NPS pic tho' poor; removed NRHP, Historic District cats. This edit intended to improve the encyclopedia is not an endorsement of the WMF.

04:1104:11, 25 November 2024 diff hist +1,127 Isabella Frankau Moved para on prescribing heroin to chron order at end, added the point to intro, added continuation by John Petro after her death. Used Guardian book review from Ext. links as a ref on that point, added further refs, fuller ID of Speare book. (Don't have access to Marek Kohn (1987) 'Narcomania: On Heroin). Article needs more on the underlying drugs policy struggle to offset claim she addicted many; maybe covered elsewhere on-wiki? This edit is not an endorsement of the WMF. current

11:2011:20, 21 November 2024 diff hist +52 Gust of Wind Inserted the obvious confusable, The Gust of Wind (Renoir), ahead of the aircraft whose name means "gust of wind" in French in the hatnote. This edit is not an endorsement of the WMF.
11:1111:11, 21 November 2024 diff hist +1,440 The Gust of Wind (Renoir) Replaced Wikidata infobox w/ locally hosted infobox: more info (incl. artist name!), enables monitoring for vandalism.

03:5203:52, 16 November 2024 diff hist +2,291 Oliver Stritzel Added short account of his career based on de:Oliver Stritzel, using sources cited there (not translation; found inaccuracy and a ref that failed verification). Able to ref DOB. Unsourced BLP tag -> BLP sources. Roles list omitted Polizeiruf 110, so changed header to Selected roles (and removed Vortex, seems to be spurious). Used Synchronkartei as footnote, replaced in Ext. links w/ agency listing. Italics. This edit after an alert at the unnameable site is not an endorsement of the WMF.
