Hello John, Here's the citation: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svea_Welander Bliv kvar hos mig, text: Henry Lyte. Stockholm: Svensk Musik. translation: Stay with me, text: Henry Lyte. Stockholm: Swedish Music

Thanks. I've cited the Swedish web page (rather than Swedish Wikipedia) as the citation for that information and moved it down into the "Abide with me" section of the Lyte article. John Foxe (talk) 22:04, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I changed the Svea Welander article mention from "Stay with Me" to "Abide with Me" - glad you pointed this out. I should have realized it myself! T. E. Meeks (talk) 11:32, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Gerda. John Foxe (talk) 16:13, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I came across this article in the new pages queue and found it interesting so I was scrolling through it. I took a look at the sources; Ref. 1 which is a link to the National Register of Historic Places website shows the building name as "Earle Town House" and not Wyche Pavilion. Is it an alternate name for the building? --Ashleyyoursmile! 18:05, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yikes. I'll have to change that. Thanks for catching it. John Foxe (talk) 18:13, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi John Foxe, thanks for correcting the reference. I've reviewed the article. Since it is new enough and interesting, would you like to nominate it at the WP:DYK? I have a hook in mind, in case you are interested. Ashleyyoursmile! 18:32, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'd be glad to nominate it, but if you have the hook--and more experience along those lines--maybe you should nominate it. John Foxe (talk) 22:41, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have nominated the article at the DYK. You can find the entry here. Thank you for your work on the article. Ashleyyoursmile! 05:55, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much! John Foxe (talk) 15:26, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No problem! The nomination has been reviewed btw. :) Ashleyyoursmile! 19:00, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

On 17 April 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Wyche Pavilion, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Wyche Pavilion, a two-story historic building in Greenville, South Carolina, was originally intended to serve as a paint shop for the Greenville Coach Factory? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Wyche Pavilion. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Wyche Pavilion), 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.

Thanks for taking time to spread good cheer on Wikipedia, Gerda. John Foxe (talk) 03:43, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No matter what we think about article subjects, summaries like the one used here are not appropriate. Please keep a more dispassionate tone. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:55, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No, not about Charles R. Pellegrino, who's a liar and a literary fraud. His misdeeds ought to be exposed on Wikipedia, and we shouldn't be reluctant to say why. John Foxe (talk) 16:44, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, about every living or recently dead person, whether or not they have an article, anywhere on Wikipedia. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:22, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I make no apologies; but you should be ashamed of yourself for abetting the perpetuation of lies and literary fraud. John Foxe (talk) 01:05, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there. Thanks for the critique on Ken Ham, I’m looking for sources. On another note; I am looking at arguing the opposite of what I am arguing for Ken Ham for Stephen Meyer, because I think that, unlike Ham, he has been wrongly labeled without citing any source. I have tried to reason with people on the talk page, probably too much so, but it has been to no avail.

Would you be willing to take a look? Warning in advance, the latest comments are a long read 😳

Thanks in advance. Chrisallen87 (talk) 23:45, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me that the use of the term "pseudoscience" on the Stephen C. Meyer page is properly cited to named sources, as in "Cook also criticizes Meyer's proposal that if something cannot be fully explained by today's science, it must be the work of a supreme deity. Calling it a 'masterwork of pseudoscience....'" Of course, there's irony in the fact that Meyer has a PhD in the philosophy of science. I assume he's being labeled a pseudo-scientist because mainstream scientists perceive his writings as a more significant challenge than those of Ham, written for a popular audience.
