Inaccurate caption
The updated graphs of gun sales (rather dramatically) do not show "steadily rising", having spiked up dramatically during covid - and then back down. Probably better to just elide that characterization ("steadily"). cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 23:22, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you, You are correct. I will update the caption to reflect the updated chart. — RCraig09 (talk) 23:24, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

COVID chart in Trump false statements article
, I see your chart there is sourced to the NYT, but is not in the COVID misinformation article. also, did you use actual data from the NYT sources or eyeball it? soibangla (talk) 06:21, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I have placed the graphic in two misinformation articles. If you think it it proper in other articles, you are of course free to add. I "traced" the NYTimes graphic in Inkscape, so it's not merely "eyeballed" and it's about as accurate as the eye can see, though the height-vs-width of the charts is different so it's hard to compare. — RCraig09 (talk) 06:26, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
 * ah, I didn't see the text you added in the COVID article, only the chart. my bad, carry on soibangla (talk) 06:30, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
 * thanks for mentioning Inkscape, btw. I might find that handy sometimes. soibangla (talk) 07:04, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Adapting TS.17
Hi Craig!

I was wondering why you never adapted this: https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1/figures/technical-summary/figure-ts-17/

It seems like the best summary of feedbacks. I would just include charts (a) and (c), since b is a minor effect and already rolled up in (a). Seems like it would have been up your alley and you were super focused on feedbacks for a while. Maybe I'll do it if you think it's a good idea? Efbrazil (talk) 17:44, 20 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Hola. Thanks for the feedback ;-) I wasn't avoiding these charts; I just wasn't focused on them. I can adapt them to chart(s) within a few days. I agree that (a) and (c) are most meaningful, and I'm assuming you were suggesting two separate charts. — RCraig09 (talk) 20:48, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Nice! Certainly happy to have you do the heavy lift there of composing the chart, thanks! I'll open a discussion on the climate change feedbacks talk page, as I think that's best form when discussing content... Efbrazil (talk) 22:59, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Great work on Social class in the United States article with your graphs
I saw that you made 3 new graphs for recent Census Bureau data on wealth based on specific factors. Would you be interested in collaborating on the editing the article in the future? I'm considering adding a new section on wealth to complement the extensive content on income, based in part on your graphs.

The Social class in the United States is one of my favorite articles to edit, and was in need of more recent photos like the ones you added. JohnAdams1800 (talk) 23:20, 6 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Inequality is only one of several topic areas I'm interested in, so I can't commit to ongoing collaboration as such. A main approach I have is to create grahics, on the principle that many people "only look at the pictures", and on the maxim that a picture is worth a thousand words. Along this vein, you may want to look at some topical graphics I've created, in a section of my Wikimedia Commons user page: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:RCraig09#Inequality,_social_issues (expand the collapsible text). Good luck! — RCraig09 (talk) 06:30, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for providing the link to your media files, which can likely be used to make the articles better. I understand that you have other priorities (WP:VOLUNTEER). JohnAdams1800 (talk) 12:37, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
