Anna Akhmatova
You should check out the death date in the Nikolai Gumilyov article. It seems like the old references have been superseded by recent discoveries. Deb (talk) 19:34, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I have amended the article. The exact day is not that big a deal in the Anna A scheme of things. Anna (talk) 19:41, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

Dorothy Sayers
I added a note to the article talk page explaining my use of the quote,. There's a new bio of her with intensive coverage of Cournos.  DGG ( talk ) 03:13, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
 * The plans sound great but please revert your recent addition as it makes no sense as is and is full of spelling errors. Anna (talk) 13:14, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Sorry!
I realized I'm sort of a nuisance and will be dialing back my participation in Wikipedia. Thank you, Thanoscar21talk, contribs 02:00, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Ted Hughes: your proposed revision
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/simon-armitage-appointed-new-uk-poet-laureate. As you will see, the UK Government and HM The Queen refer to the Poet Laureate as having been appointed, not "serving as" so I shall revert your suggested edit.Sevenoaks27 (talk) 08:23, 30 June 2020 (UTC)


 * I say that "serving" is a better word. Many suggested laureates have turned down the post. There has to be full agreement from the poet, usually after long consideration. Anna (talk) 16:36, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
