Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information. For more information about the columns and categories, please consult the documentation and please get in touch on SuggestBot's talk page with any questions you might have.

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly; your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. -- SuggestBot (talk) 11:50, 3 October 2019 (UTC)

Damon Runyon
Thanks for your message and your edits to Damon Runyon. Generally it doesn't make sense to list the individual short works of an author in a biog - all the articles of a journalist, all the poems of a poet, all the essays of an essayist, all the stories of a short story writer - because there are usually too many. There are some authors, like Katherine Mansfield, who died young and didn't write many published stories. There are some list articles that seek to delineate all the stories of a writer, such as Wodehouse. The writers are generally dead and the lists are generally incomplete and unreferenced. I would support a new list article of Runyon's stories, especially if the list is complete and ref'd. I'd appreciate hearing your thoughts on this.

 * I happened to see this discussion. Since he was famous for the stories, I would support including them; a list might be better, but there is no reason why the information should not be here in the meantime. Therefore I restored it, with a discussion on the article talk p.  DGG ( talk ) 23:30, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 30
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of compositions by Ralph Vaughan Williams, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Robert Herrick (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
