English Wikipedia edit

It seems you're only talking of the English Wikipedia. Please fix the title of the page accordingly. Have you considered studying other languages which have similar templates and/or what systems are used other than the specific template, both in English Wikipedia and other languages? --Nemo 05:07, 30 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Good point, Nemo. Yes, we want to concentrate on English, at least initially. We'll change the title of the page. --Cervisiarius (talk) 22:56, 3 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for pointing this out Nemo. I have moved the page.Srijankedia (talk) 03:15, 4 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
From German WP see this discussion for example: de:Wikipedia:Kurier/Ausgabe 08 2014#Uni Gießen, WDR, NZZ: Zerstören, um zu berichten, de:Wikipedia_Diskussion:Kurier/Archiv/2014/08#Fake-Artikel fake articles: Spätdrossel, Mylia erratum, Hyproxantipe. And de:Benutzer:Gestumblindi/Fakemuseum (oldies). --Atlasowa (talk) 13:17, 30 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
That's a great pointer, vielen Dank! --Cervisiarius (talk) 22:56, 3 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Article about Maurice Foxell is back edit

WP:EN contains an article about Maurice Foxell, seems legit. Is this about the same person? OlafJanssen (talk) 16:55, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
