On the bicentenary of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, I remember our recent uplifting choral concert in pictures, on my user page and in my concerts (leading to the two at the church's article).--Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:12, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I love that symphony. Playing it was one of the highlights of my time in my college orchestra. DanCherek (talk) 18:18, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Understand. I sang it (alto) in Idstein once. - Today is the Feast of the Ascension for which Bach composed his oratorio, - perhaps watch a bit how the closing movement was performed in Bach's church. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:42, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Magdalena Hinterdobler is on the Main page today, together with an opera that reviewers deemed not interesting and too obscure for our general readers. The soprano thought differently, - listen and see. - Also on the Main page: a TFA by sadly missed Vami_IV. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:14, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I miss him too. He did a lot of great work on that article. DanCherek (talk) 12:48, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Doom (2016 video game) - today's TFA is again by Vami --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:52, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
did you listen and see? - today's story has a pic of a woman holding her cat, a DYK of 5 years ago - the recent pics show 2 orange tip butterflies --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:33, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
yesterday's story remembered an oratorio world premiere I was in, conducted by the composer --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:57, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I heard lovely chamber music today, and the DYK mentions "profoundly human" singing (that you can watch), connected to a place where we'll sing in September --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:03, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I liked seeing Erschallet, ihr Lieder on the Main page today, 310 years after the first performance! We sang it in 2000. Today's program was easier but also spirited. I found a nice video of "I will sing with the spirit", with nature photography, - enjoy. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:27, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Cool! I've been seeing a lot of these around my area too, I didn't know what they were called. DanCherek (talk) 17:38, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nor did I until I looked it up ;) - Requiem (Verdi) tomorrow, - short on music and references - can you help? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:56, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not right now... possibly in June? DanCherek (talk) 01:19, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Though you are doing an excellent job at it already! DanCherek (talk) 01:20, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you have any specific Lilypond-related requests, lmk. DanCherek (talk) 01:20, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the offer, but the coverage of the music is still poor - later perhaps. - Today's story mentions a concert I loved to hear and a piece I loved to sing in choir, 150 years old OTD. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:22, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you can see and tell me why I don't hear the sample in my story today. I see that the box that normally has the time has only an arrow here, and when I click on it (only) the whole page turns pale. Superficially comparing to examples in BWV 1 (with and without text) didn't give me a clou. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:18, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think this is a known bug that occurs when an .ogg sound file is on the same page, mentioned at Help talk:Score § LilyPond player vs .ogg files, also tracked at Phabricator (phab:T363630). DanCherek (talk) 16:24, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll remove the sound file then, and move it to Graupner. It must be something like this, because I tried to copy the same piece from BWV 227 where it worked, and it worked in preview, but not after saving. The second Graupner is terrific! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:28, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yep! The score playback sounds great now too. DanCherek (talk) 01:34, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Help with block evasion[edit]

A vandalism binge by 120.28.65.17 (talk · contribs). Thanks, 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 04:54, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Was just about to apply a block but PhilKnight beat me to it! DanCherek (talk) 04:55, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Terrific. Thanks to you both. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 04:56, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you[edit]

Thank you for the reasons given to remove my edit about the Achuar people. Now I know the rules. Jack Windshield (talk) 11:44, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. DanCherek (talk) 14:10, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Manipuri–Burmese wars of 1717 to 1749- could you check a deleted diff?[edit]

Specifically, this one?, and does it contain the same content you removed from the article 2024-05-11? Different account, but you can see the relevant albeit messy SPI here.

(Also, quick disclaimer- I think I messed up in the article and removed some unattributed pd-copying, believing it to be more modern, but you can ignore that because I'll fix it now that I've reminded myself of it) GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 05:33, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GreenLipstickLesbian: I don't see any overlap between the new edit and the one from a few weeks ago. That said, given the checkuser findings at SPI and the continued copying from that Internet Archive source, it seems like an indefinite block is in order for Khotanese26, right? It looks to me that way, but as you mentioned the SPI is messy so just wanted to get a second opinion. DanCherek (talk) 12:32, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If it had been the exact same, it would have been a really easy block. Given that it's not the same, but that the same pattern of behaviour, + the CU evidence + the overlap in interest, and that this is the second time they've apparently committed a blatant copy-vio, I think an admin would be fully justified in blocking the Kotanese26 account. I'll leave it to you, but that's my opinion. GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 20:19, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks! I've blocked for copyright violations and sockpuppetry. DanCherek (talk) 23:23, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for looking at the issue and dealing with all the administration side of stuff! I'll leave a note at the SPI case so the folks there can do whatever archive stuff they need. 00:37, 28 May 2024 (UTC) GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 00:37, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
