About the Hartlepool stabbings
Hello, Paul. I'm the one who flagged the article for recentism and notability and I didn't want to move on without talking to you. I didn't mean to be cold about it, it just seems a bit soon to merit an encyclopedia entry. We don't know what the final legal outcome will be. These stabbings are certainly outrageous. Terrorism is a real concern and I hope I haven't been insensitive. Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 22:49, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi I didn't create the article but tried to tidy it up a bit, although I share similar concerns. My main concern was use of the Daily Express to source the article so I found some alternative references. It seemed a bit soon to create it though, particularly when not much is known about the incident. It was reported in the media but largely eclipsed by other events. I'd support an AFD if you wanted to do that. This is Paul (talk) 23:06, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
 * I should have done it first, but after writing you the above message I looked at the user page for the author. Most of his activity is writing articles about recent violent crime anywhere in the world that were subsequently marked for speedy deletion. Seems to be a fetish?

Deletion proposal for Timeline of Greatest Hits Radio
I noticed a message on my talkpage saying that someone has nominated this article for deletion but as of yet, no such discussion has been started and I've deleted it from the article. The justification is "Fails NLIST. No WP:IS WP:RS showing this has been discussed as a group. Unneeded CFORK of main article which already contains a history of the station." Given that you have done a lot of work to keep this up to date, I thought it best to let you know for as and when this appears. Rillington (talk) 11:04, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
 * This article has now formally been nominated for deletion. Rillington (talk) 11:34, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Deletion proposal for Timeline of Greatest Hits Radio
This has nominated for deletion. The justification is "Fails NLIST. No WP:IS WP:RS showing this has been discussed as a group. Unneeded CFORK of main article which already contains a history of the station." Given that you have done a lot of work to keep this up to date, I was wondering if maybe you could please add your support for this to be kept because if this one is deleted, they may go after other UK broadcasting timelines which you and me have put significant amounts of time into.

The current score is 2 keep, 2 merge and one delete. Rillington (talk) 11:36, 7 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your support regarding the AfD of the Greatest Hits Radio timeline.
 * I had received a message on my talkpage from User:Rodney Baggins regarding a major reformatting of our series of broadcasting timelines and I have replied. Given that you have played a major role in creating, compiling and updating timelines in these series I wanted to get your view.
 * You will see the format that he is suggesting on the the snooker timeline.
 * If you could please give your views on my talkpage I'd be most grateful. Rillington (talk) 12:28, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

Edits over the holidays
I'm away for the next few days and using a different device, so I'll need to revisit some of my refill edits when I get home. I'll be back on the 28th so I'll deal with everything then. In the meantime, have a great Christmas and enjoy the good cheer. This is Paul (talk) 00:02, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

Just a heads up
evening. There is currently a vote going on at Talk:Lucy Letby about whether to exclude calling her a serial killer. You have previously edited on similar pages and about similar stuff, so thought you may be interested in voting? 86.187.226.176 (talk) 18:52, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
