Hi, I recently organized a conversation series on the role of women in the Wikimedia movement. A lot of the feedback I received suggested these conversations should take place in multiple languages. This is why I recently documented the conversation series and created an Organizer's guide. If you could help me with translations, that would be great. Thank you! María Cruz.

Your help is greatly appreciated. Translators like you help Meta to function as a truly multilingual community.

You can change your notification preferences.

Thank you!

Marriage
Hi. Notice you adjusted the entry for Rodney Dangerfield info box showing the years of his marriage to Joan Child. I agree with you wholeheartedly, that the instructions in Template:Marriage say to leave the end date empty if the article's subject was still married at the time of their death. Makes sense to me - the person never "stopped" being married, they just stopped being alive. I used to go in and change these entries, as you have here, in accordance with the Marriage template. I have since noticed an inconsistency in the guidance supplied by Template:Infobox person, which states that the death date of the article's subject should be shown. I gave up, and generally (but not always) leave it alone if someone else has used the Template:Infobox_person#Parameters criteria rather than the Template:Marriage criteria. I just wanted to acknowledge the change you made on Dangerfield page, given we are of a similar mind on the issue. Nothing worth fighting with the community over to try and get consistency between the two templates, but I did want to say "Thanks". Jmg38 (talk) 01:22, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

Live Action.
Live action is used to define film, video games or similar visual media. According to the Cambridge English Dictionary, live action "involves real people or animals, not models, or images that are drawn, or produced by computer". The makers of SVU have just randomly applied themselves the no1 spot. I would imagine in an effort to create headlines. But SVU is far from the longest running in the Live Action caterogory. Not even close. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.146.250.63 (talk) 23:14, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Alan Rickman
Hi there, your recent revision on Alan Rickman cites that per the Template:Marriage, it instructs not to use an end parameter but I don't see that at all on the page. It looks as though he's still currently married but that's obviously not the case so there should be an end date. LADY LOTUS • TALK 15:58, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
