Persondata, revisited
Hey, RJ. I know that you and your bot were previously active in adding Persondata templates to Wikipedia biography articles, and I'm sure you're aware that Persondata has been subsequently deprecated and the templates are subject to being mass-deleted in the near future. There appears to be a lot of accurate and usable information in the Persondata templates which has not been transferred to Wikidata by prior bot operation. Would you be interested in exploring ways we could transfer more of it before the templates are deleted? Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 12:24, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, aware. I'd expect that those deprecating the template would have plans in place to extract all of the useful data first, otherwise it's cart before horse. Though really anything added under my bot task was from infobox/categories so I'm not sure it's that valuable in itself. Rjwilmsi  20:34, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

‎Requesting guidance
Greeetings

It seems you have been working on culture related some articles too. I am requesting your kind guidance for change of name of one article. When I started working on a new article recently, presently named  Poles in mythology actual article name was some thing different, actually due to some misunderstandings some one changed name of the article to Poles in mythology. Matter of the fact is I wanted to cover cultural aspects and festive celebrations as an umbrella article and wanted to have historical mythological, worships wherever concerned as a small part of the main article.

Poles in mythology is altogether a different subject when I am doing research and writing cultural aspects of festive celebrations are also coming up simultaneously and I am coming to a conclusion that for covering cultural aspects of festive celebrations of 'pole' we need to have a separate umbrella article altogether so we will not have more confusions and misunderstandings. Ither we need to change present article name or split and create a new cultural aspect related article.

Please let me know your openion and if you are positive to my suggessions what should be the new articles name ? In fact you can join in discussion at Talk:Poles_in_mythology

Looking forward to your kind guidance

Thanks and warm regards

News mention
Hi, you were mentioned, along with the rest of the Top 10 Wikipedians by edit count, in this news piece: http://priceonomics.com/the-most-prolific-editor-on-wikipedia/. Thanks, ––Rubbish computer (HALP!: I dropped the bass?) 16:27, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

Baffled
I was most curious to see that an edit I had made to the talk page of your bot had been undone: on looking at the page the bot had been given a notification for a speedy placed on Ruben Correa. Most peculiar, since the bot did not write the paged (as the editor who undid the edit commented, nor did I speedy this article. What's up, doc?TheLongTone (talk) 12:59, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
