:Thanks. I'm sure it will get picked up for TFA at some point now we don't have enough new FAs to fill the slots. All the poignant date connections have just been missed or are much later in the year. [[User:Yomangani|Yomangani]][[User_talk:Yomangani|talk]] 00:35, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

:: It was picked for today. Thank you for the efforts to keep Brian's work appreciated, saying: [[Australasian Antarctic Expedition]] "was Brianboulton's last big almost finished project, so it would be nice to get it to FA as a tribute." - [[User:Aza24|Aza24]] and I work on making [[Monteverdi operas|Monteverdi's operas]] a featured topic, the list is up for FL, - something I never did successfully ;) - help welcome. - Talking about tributes: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Gerda_Arendt&oldid=958946560 yesterday], a composer was pictured on the Main page who wrote a [[Triple Concerto No. 2 (Smirnov)|triple concerto for violin, harp and double bass]], the article on the piece written in honour of the composer who died and my brother who plays double bass. The composer was a Wikipedian and wrote about [[Alexander Vustin|his colleague]], with a picture. --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 06:45, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

:: I missed the dogs drama, sorry. That would have been the perfect DYK today, - what a shame. Could that become a GA, even FA, perhaps? --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 06:49, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

:''I'' understand ''your'' frustration. Yes, ''you'' are right: the [[WP:DYK]] process is bureaucratic and overladen with rules {{ndash}} common sense is not part of it. And it takes too long. Believe me, I have been on the other end of this b.s. ''We'' need to fix the problem, not fix the blame. Finishing up your article and getting it on the main page is what we can do today.

:FWIW, I personally invested a QPQ. And this article (and picture) is a really good addition to Wikipedia. Don't give up. [[User:7&6=thirteen|7&6=thirteen]] ([[User talk:7&6=thirteen|☎]]) 15:41, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Re: [[Special:Diff/976121498|this edit]], absolutely no complaints. But the quote in the edit summary was fascinating.

: C&C, that would typically be a Yoman original. You should see him in Spanish. More importantly ... pass the Serum!! Good to "see" you, Yoman. Best, [[User:SandyGeorgia|'''Sandy'''Georgia]] ([[User talk:SandyGeorgia|Talk]]) 18:08, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
