DYK for Alaskapox virus

On 19 July 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Alaskapox virus, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that public health authorities are still not exactly sure how Alaskapox virus, a recently discovered relative of Monkeypox virus, has spread to humans from animals? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Alaskapox virus. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Alaskapox virus), 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.

Minor correction (?)

Hello!

In a completely random course of events I stumbled upon your user page. I generally like reading about the overall history and philosophy of Wikipedia and on days where I don't have any particular wikiwork to attend to, I enjoy passing some time reading essays and articles that talk about what Wikipedia is and how it came to be. Today I was reading about the changes between policies, guidelines and essays and that got me into WP:VPP and on a quick scroll on it, my eyes caught your username because of the pink (salmon) background. I started reading your user page and there I saw what I believe to be an error:

I do try to be mindful, however, that editing based on a sense of vengeance is not particularly productive, nor truly in the spirit of Wikipedia, and feel free to let me know if you think I am going overboard!

I believe, instead of it, it should probably be so.

I thought I'd tell you.
