Harold Scott MacDonald Coxeter
He's most famous for reviving geometry in the 20th century, so shouldn't the description say "geometer", not "mathematician"? AnonMoos (talk) 16:16, 6 March 2021 (UTC)


 * I've went ahead and changed it. Darylgolden(talk) Ping when replying 23:11, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Discussion on Singapore images at Commons
Hi Darylgolden, I hope you are well. There is an important discussion at Wikimedia Commons about the position to take on images from Singapore here: c:Commons:Deletion requests/File:Gan Siow Huang 1.jpg. It has significant implications for photos from Singapore being accepted on Commons, and I think the discussion should have broad participation. I thought it might interest you, and I think your view would benefit the discussion. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 03:46, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi Kohlrabi, thanks for the notice. Unfortunately, IANAL and so I don't think I should comment. Darylgolden(talk) Ping when replying 03:59, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

WP:AFC Helper News
Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest. Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future. Cheers, Primefac, via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:59, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
 * The template db-afc-move has been created - this template is similar to db-move when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve
You removed this as a copyvio. Do you know from where and when it was added. Thanks. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 07:24, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
 * It seems to have been copied from here, in this diff. I've not explored the rest of the old website and it seems like there could be more content that was copied. Darylgolden(talk) Ping when replying 07:33, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

History of the MRT
You removed a load of text from History of the MRT as a copyvio but I can't identify when it was added to deal with the revdel requets. Nthep (talk) 21:51, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Oops, I forgot to add the revs. Added now. Darylgolden(<b style="color:#F00">talk</b>) Ping when replying 23:30, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I also noticed some of the requests you said were completed, such as the one in MacRitchie Reservoir, didn't actually have any revisions revdel'ed. Not sure if you meant to decline or forgot to revdel. <b style="color:#FA0">Darylgolden</b>(<b style="color:#F00">talk</b>) Ping when replying 23:32, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
 * All sorted. Not sure what happened on MacRitchie Reservoir, perhaps the age and number of revs made it fail first time round. Nthep (talk) 06:59, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Doesn’t seem like it was done on Helix Bridge either? <b style="color:#FA0">Darylgolden</b>(<b style="color:#F00">talk</b>) Ping when replying 12:37, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Grr, thanks for the heads-up. Dealt with it. Nthep (talk) 13:00, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
