Your GA nomination of Jewellery of the Berber cultures
Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Jewellery of the Berber cultures you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Chiswick Chap -- Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:01, 4 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks,, looking forward to your comments and hope you will also enjoy this complex topic. User:Munfarid1 (talk) 09:07, 4 February 2022 (UTC)


 * GA reviewers handle things variously; I'd be glad if you could write a short note under each of my comments when you feel you've addressed it, even if as short as "* Done" or whatever. If I'm content I'll just leave the item, if not I'll reply further. It makes keeping track easier. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 10:43, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
 * With pleasure, and first of all thanks for your comments. I have started to make changes according to your suggestions, but will need a couple of days to finish. You will find my answers under each comment soon. &#91;&#91;User:Munfarid1&#124;Munfarid1&#93;&#93; (&#91;&#91;User talk:Munfarid1&#124;talk&#93;&#93;) (talk) 10:46, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

Cwmhiraeth (talk) 00:02, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

lovely pictured DYK, thank you! - would have been a good companion for my joy - more on my talk --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:40, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks as always, Gerda, especially as this has been promoted to GA today. Sometime I will use this information for the original German text that was full of misconceptions, as I learned on the go...Munfarid1 (talk) 15:02, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Valentine's Day edition, with spring flowers and plenty of music --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:00, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Danke, dear Gerda, for your always thoughtful messages and pictures. Enjoy the coming of spring or of the carnival season, which also celebrates the end of winter. As a schoolboy in Bad Waldsee, I used to enjoy the Swabian carnival and accompanying revelry! Munfarid1 (talk) 08:14, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
 * thank you - stand and sing --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:27, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I took a pic in 2009, and it was on the German MP yesterday, with the song from 1885, in English Prayer for Ukraine. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:51, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Translation into French

 * Hello, I wanted to let you know that I have translated this article in French, thanks for covering this interesting topic! Moumou82 (talk) 21:38, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello, Moumou82 (talk) thanks for your message and the interest you have shown for this article. I am very glad that it is now available in French for anybody in the Francophone world, and especially for North Africans! I also see that you have had access to the original French sources and you have quoted them correctly. :) - And have you thought of nominating your version for the section "Le saviez-vous ?" - Yesterday, I also added a sentence and bluelink about Amina Agueznay in the section "Modern changes", which you might like to include.
 * BTW, I currently live in Paris, and often work at the excellent library of the Musée du quai Branly, where I found most of the books. Maybe you are also interested in my article on Jean Besancenot, which you could consult to enlarge the existing one in French, too. - If you would like to exchange any information, sources etc on these topics, I would be happy to get in touch again. And BTW, the book by Gargouri-Sethom about Tunisian jewellery is very good. - Best regards, Munfarid1 (talk) 22:37, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your reply, I have updated the translated article with your latest updates. I am interested with Tunisian topics specifically, or broader North African topics such as this one, so feel free to ping me in the future if you have one that might be good to translate to French. Moumou82 (talk) 20:00, 18 February 2022 (UTC)


 * @Moumou82 Merci, it's great to know a fellow Wikipedian with your kind of interests and skills. I write mostly in English and German, using my reading knowledge of French to spread information from the French speaking world to English readers. - An article that might be suitable is my Report on the restitution of African cultural heritage. Thanks for the offer and let's stay in touch! Munfarid1 (talk) 20:11, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Precious anniversary
--Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:38, 12 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your continued support and appreciation! Munfarid1 (talk) 14:42, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I believe that you could bring Roman Bunka to quality ready for the Recent deaths section of the Main page (where I sadly have two right now). Just source awards and recordings, and write a bit more about his life. Perhaps Grimes2 could also help. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:28, 14 June 2022 (UTC)


 * @Gerda Arendt, thanks for your suggestion. Will work on this some more tomorrow, as there was a good article in Süddeutsche Zeitung yesterday. - How would I then suggest it for Recently died? Munfarid1 (talk) 15:46, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you! You go to WP:ITNN, and see if you get the system. Or wait for me doing it ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:51, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Good morning @Gerda Arendt, if you think it is up to quality standards now, I would be happy to leave the nomination for Recent deaths to you. - Thanks for your encouragement that prompted Grimes2 and me to improve this article. Munfarid1 (talk) 07:29, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks all for great improvements, but we still need refs for the awards. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:10, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I thought the 2000 concert would be a good DYK but can't find it in the ref given? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:28, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I found something in BR24 --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:31, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Great, your DYK will make many more people aware of Bunka and Mounir, and maybe also of one of my favourite instruments, the Emir of Instruments for Arabic music lovers. - When I expanded it, I didn't even check for DYK eligibilitiy, so thanks again for your very helpful action.

Good Article Reasssessment
Munfarid1, the Sudan women's national football team article is currently undergoing a GA reassessment, which can be found at Talk:Sudan women's national football team/GA3. It seems likely that, absent someone knowledgeable who is able to work on the issues raised, the article will be delisted from being a Good Article in early August. If you are able to stop by and improve the article per the reassessment, it could retain its GA status. Thank you for your past work on the article. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:46, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Great news, thank you. - I believe the humanitarian and political desaster in Myanmar certainly deserves more international attention. Cheers, Munfarid1 (talk) 07:58, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Thank you, interesting! - today's DYK: two facts from the two concert of this years Rheingau Musik Festival I liked best, both a cappella singing.
