Great work; I think it's a really good and informative article now, by the way. I hope you found the process helpful. If you'd like to review one of my articles, they're there in the list of Language and literature GANs awaiting a reviewer ... it'd be much appreciated.

DYK for The Waste Land

On 12 February 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article The Waste Land, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that The Waste Land, considered one of the most important poems of the 20th century, was described as "waste paper" when first published? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/The Waste Land. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, The Waste Land), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed.

Liszt

Nice job cleaning up Liszt so far. What are your plans for it? Aza24 (talk) 06:33, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks! I'm working on a section on his relationships with other composers, and I think the biography section needs more work, but after that I think I'll put it forward for GA review to give myself a sense of closure (if I'm not completely burnt out). The FA process seems too intimidating! Ligaturama (talk) 08:37, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, biography could use some citation clean up, but looks good overall. I think the legacy section is the biggest gap; I like your additions to the teaching section, but we need more on influence and reputation. Check out how this is done at Josquin des Prez#Legacy, Claude Debussy#Influence on later composers or Frédéric Chopin#Reception and influence, for some ideas. Obviously these three are FAs, so the Liszt could have a smaller scale for that section, and since each are suited for the specific composer, Liszt's will have to be as well.

GA is a great goal. Let me know when you nominate it there—I would be happy to review it. Aza24 (talk) 02:12, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Yeah you're right, I did kind of swerve the legacy of his compositions, partly because I felt that it belongs more in Musical works of Franz Liszt, and I haven't come across a huge amount written just on that topic. It does look extremely sparse though, I'm sure I can flesh it out. Thanks a lot for the examples and the offer of a GA review, I'll give you a message after I nominate.

Liszt GAN

Hey, I'm happy to help out with the Liszt GAN while you're away (i.e. do the copy & pasting of notes references asked by CurryTime). I can also try and address some of my own comments. Would that be okay? Aza24 (talk) 16:53, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, that would be really great if you could! Your suggestions were all perfectly valid as far as I'm concerned, I have a small comment on one of them that I'll put in a reply to it so that everything relevant is there on the same page. Ligaturama (talk) 17:58, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Hey, I completely forgot about this (was just reminded via my talk page on the GAN page), my apologies. I fear I'm too busy to commit to helping out much, but I'll see if I can squeeze in some effort these coming days. Aza24 (talk) 18:26, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

No problem! I won't address your comments during the GA process, because that would make it harder to get across the finish line and clearly both CurryTime and I are also busy. But of course I have no objection if you do it yourself, and/or I'll take another look post-GA when I have some more time. Ligaturama (talk) 18:38, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Stravinsky

Hello! Seeing as you worked Liszt up to GA, I thought you'd be interested in a PR I just opened on Igor Stravinsky, with hopes for a future FAC. Any comments would be much appreciated if you find time- thanks! MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 20:33, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello again! Wanted to let you know that Stravinsky is now at FAC. It seems that Tim riley didn't get the ping when I notified him on the PR (probably because I closed it before pinging him) so I wanted to ensure you got the notification- thanks!

Percy Bysshe Shelley

Hello there

Is there a policy or convention regarding the use of maiden names for spouses in the info box? Shelley's first wife is given as Harriet Westbrook so it would be consistent to style his second wife Mary Godwin. She is also referred to as Mary Godwin in the article up to the point of her marriage to Shelley. I think this outweighs any confusion which might be caused to casual readers who only look at the info box and not the article. Aemilius Adolphin (talk) 08:08, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Hiya - existing policy/docs such as MOS:BIRTHNAME and WP:NCP seem to just be around article titles or when the person in question is the article subject, but the guidance on the "spouse" entry in Template:Infobox person says "Use article title (if linking) or common name", both of which are of course Mary Shelley. As infoboxes are meant to impart useful information at a glance, it seems sensible to me to use the name she is known for (her marriage predates any significant work as far as I'm aware), rather than having people click through wondering who Mary Godwin is and being redirected to Mary Shelley.

I see your point about consistency with Westbrook; to me the difference is that she isn't independently notable under either name, so I think it's less important which name she's put under. I disagree that we should prioritise people reading his biography over "casual" infobox readers; if anything I think that's a reason to keep her as Shelley in the infobox, to cater for people wanting a short summary without unnecessary confusion.

If you want to start a conversation on the talk page to see what others think then I can copy this response to there, but I think keeping consistency with the infobox guidelines is the way to go. Ligaturama (talk) 09:54, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the response. I see your reasoning, and we only occasionally have people changing it to Godwin. (They are more likely to confuse her with Mary Wollstonecraft!) Aemilius Adolphin (talk) 21:59, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Why has the Nationality and Date of Birth been removed

Blp this page had the nationality the education and the date of birth which was removed today why? The page hasn't had a problem with date of birth nationality with any other updates. How is the United Nations and International Telecommunications Union poorly sourced or controversial how is the UK Parliament papers controversial or poorly sourced they are governments servers in the United Kingdom. The Book is uploaded into an Australian Library Archives that is the format. why is a United Nations expert considered controversial or poory sourced.Do you have better suggestions other than to remove the information thats been there for many years. David Cameron date of Birth is on his page Theresa May date of birth is on the page many fashion designers have theie date of birth why is this page being vandalised today LuxuryUK72 (talk) 09:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

The date of birth needs to have a reliable source per WP:DOB. Your sentence Harlette commenced a PhD in space telecommunications 2015, King's College London invited to British delegation of International Telecommunications Union 2016-2020 Geneva and awarded title of United Nations Expert through United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs Vienna 2024 published twice UK Parliament Defence Sub Committee space security NASA was impenetrable, but nevertheless the sources clearly didn't support many of its assertions. And anyone can self-publish a book, I think it's misleading to then describe that person as an "author". Ligaturama (talk) 10:01, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Edit reversion

Hello. Regarding the reversion from me adding serial commas, they are found throughout the rest of the article, so I am just curious about why we are not being consistent about their usage. Thank you for your time and be well. Examples from the article: "As a token of respect for Roman religion, however, Elagabalus joined either Astarte, Minerva, Urania, or some combination of the three to Elagabal as consort. A union between Elagabal and a traditional goddess would have served to strengthen ties between the new religion and the imperial cult. There may have been an effort to introduce Elagabal, Urania, and Athena as the new Capitoline Triad of Rome—replacing Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva." "The most sacred relics from the Roman religion were transferred from their respective shrines to the Elagabalium, including the emblem of the Great Mother, the fire of Vesta, the Shields of the Salii, and the Palladium, so that no other god could be worshipped except in association with Elagabal." "Dio says Elagabalus delighted in being called Hierocles's mistress, wife, and queen." "Some historians, including the classicists Mary Beard, Zachary Herz, and Martijn Icks, treat these accounts with caution, as sources for Elagabalus' life were often antagonistic towards him and largely untrustworthy."

Apologies, I didn't properly review that edit in context. I've reverted my revert. Ligaturama (talk) 07:21, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your response. I hope I did not send you the "reversion" message twice, as when I logged into my account the message appeared on-screen as if it had not been sent. I am so sorry if I sent it a second time! Thank you and take care! Lime green k (talk) 23:12, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
