October harvest contd.
Speaking of which, here is my October harvest of squash: Philafrenzy (talk) 17:26, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Queensland Blue (left) and Butternut (right) squash 31 October 2020.jpg
 * Just like people...vary in colour, shapes and sizes. They will keep you going for a while. Whispyhistory (talk) 07:17, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I see they remind you of your patients. I have learned that squash is where spaghetti comes from. I always thought it grew on trees. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:27, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

Surprise Attack
As a 1951 crown film this is out of copyright meaning any number of stills can be used in the article down the right or in a gallery, and even the whole film can be uploaded to Commons. Dust off your screen-capture software. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:52, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Can you sort it? I'm doing 101 things at the same time. That article has some really important messages... Whispyhistory (talk) 21:13, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * ...I have captured some stills...Will add one and let you scrutinise it before doing any others. Whispyhistory (talk) 08:10, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * You are on the right track in the article but wrong on Commons. It's not your own work is it? Upload them as "This file is not my own work" and copy the expired crown copyright licence that I used for the titles. Try another. Philafrenzy (talk) 08:30, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * which creative commons attribution box do I tick? Whispyhistory (talk) 08:39, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * None. It's not creative commons because it's not your own work so you can't grant a creative commons licence on it. Click on "Another reason not mentioned above" and paste the licence in the box. Philafrenzy (talk) 08:52, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Tried again...please kindly check. Whispyhistory (talk) 08:53, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Correct. You can also upload a larger screen shot if you have it by maximising your window, and they don't need to be in the British Films category as Surprise Attack already is. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:00, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you... I will have another go. Whispyhistory (talk) 09:02, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * You also have the opportunity to add one of John Le Mesurier to his article which is light on images of the man due to most of his work being in copyright. These out of copyright sources can be mined for images for multiple articles in that way. What else is in the film that you can capture and use elsewhere in articles about vaccination or health etc? Philafrenzy (talk) 09:04, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Great work. That is exactly what I was hoping you would do. You have risen to challenge and succeeded admirably. Philafrenzy (talk) 13:02, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * It appears to have an all star cast...Can you recognise any other actors? Whispyhistory (talk) 13:05, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I only recognised one although I note two of them subsequently played in Dad's Army. I expect they were happy to have the work. I also noticed the black nurse and the modernist ambulance. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:53, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I have converted the video and uploaded it in full to Commons. Philafrenzy (talk) 23:16, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks ...Can you do something here? My head is spinning. Whispyhistory (talk) 10:47, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Your head is spinning? I would see a physician if I were you. Or possibly a priest. I will look. Philafrenzy (talk) 17:51, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I have simplified it. Philafrenzy (talk) 13:28, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks...Seen priest and confessed. I also looked Life in Her Hands. Whispyhistory (talk) 16:57, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
 * That can't have taken long. The film is eligible for a 5x expansion if you can source it. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:58, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Life in Her Hands...... please steer me in the right direction. Whispyhistory (talk) 16:34, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I would expand the synopsis section, commenting on scenes from the film in the way that Screenonline and the other sources do. You haven't mentioned Black Narcissus which you should immediately view if you have not already seen it. Philafrenzy (talk) 00:08, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
 * ...please review my edits. Whispyhistory (talk) 14:49, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * It reads OK. Maybe a bit too much about tea. I know tea is important but I am not sure we need the picture of the surgeon asking for a cuppa or the matron checking the caddy. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:49, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * There is a lot of tea in the film. Take out what you feel. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:46, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * You want me to decaffeinate it? Was it shot in a real hospital as I added to the lead? Philafrenzy (talk) 21:00, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I could only find a source (Hallam) that says it was a reconstruction. The real life bit was there before but I can't verify it. After watching the whole film...reconstruction feels more feasible. As you suggested, I watched Black Narcissus... released a few months before India's independence. Whispyhistory (talk) 21:05, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * And what did you make of it? Philafrenzy (talk) 21:23, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Em... characters are well thought out...a maharaja in Calcutta who looks awfully like a Punjabi ruler with an eagle on his arm... then Kenchi meaning scissors...(sharp edged)... all interesting. Deborah Kerr is beautiful and powerful... every scene is suppose to be erotic without being explicit...I see why Byron was recruited for Life in her hands. The colour is amazing. The timing of the films release needs thought. Whispyhistory (talk) 21:34, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * You could put in a couple more images relating to the plot in the synopsis section now that I removed the tea-related images. Philafrenzy (talk) 10:59, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Will do. Whispyhistory (talk) 12:29, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, if you are going to upload a lot of images to Commons it is a good idea to create the relevant category for them if it doesn't exist. This prevents others from having to manually re-categorise them later. Philafrenzy (talk) 18:10, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
 * ... Thanks for creating the category. Can I assume the same can be done for Black Narcissus? Interestingly, its views have escalated x10 recently. Am I missing something? Whispyhistory (talk) 17:58, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, if it hadn't already been done. Note, there has to be something out of copyright to put in such a category. There is a TV mini-series just out. Philafrenzy (talk) 18:39, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Chicken Madras was invented in Dundee (probably). Philafrenzy (talk) 08:02, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Interesting BBC program ...also couldn't find any scholarly literature on Madras curry but reminded me of korma . Can you find an image of Haxton? Whispyhistory (talk) 18:41, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I already looked but no, which is not to say that none exist. I have been known to buy books by the subject on the off-chance their image appears in the back flap of the dust jacket, but it's very hit and miss. You could enquire of the university, RSE etc. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:16, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Looks like there isn't one. Check out the second image. Book has been eaten by bookworms. Doesn't stop them selling it. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:50, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Good find...I'll keep looking. I don't think many people have heard of him. Looked at my bookshelf which has several surgical textbooks dated 1916-1965, but no mention of Haxton. Whispyhistory (talk) 06:34, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Old medical textbooks are an interesting area and often contain excellent hand-drawn illustrations. Notable authors too but require research to determine who they were as they often just give initials and surname. H. E. Merritt came from a scruffy book I found in a charity shop for £1.50 (article gets one view per day). Philafrenzy (talk) 10:25, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Haxton - it seems to tail off after his 30s. Philafrenzy (talk) 16:58, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
 * There appears nothing more on him.... apparently he is not registered as FRCSE and is not in Plarr's. He has an empty entry at RSE. Whispyhistory (talk) 17:03, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Try splitting the big section and combining the later sections to make it more even. (Did you like my Passer hook?) Philafrenzy (talk) 17:12, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok..will see what I can do. ..ahh...just noticed why the woo..:) Also...came across King Edward VII who once fractured his patella. Any help here is appreciated. The article has a great image. Whispyhistory (talk) 17:44, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

Sister Agnes
I am not convinced by the black and white engraving. The source is a dead link. The colour image of the nurse on the cover of the book by Hough is probably her. Have you bought it? (The image on the cover of the book by Lamont-Brown is Alice Keppel but there may be an image of Keyser inside) Philafrenzy (talk) 10:50, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you... On order. BTW...I'm no longer convinced that the image of Fanny Kepler with the NPG in external links is the sister of Agnes- the DOB looks far off. Will make sure to check out who the photographers are before adding. Please feel free to guide some more on the article. Whispyhistory (talk) 14:38, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Get a copy with a dust jacket if hardback as that is often where the cover picture credit is. Philafrenzy (talk) 16:10, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
 * The image of Fanny (born 1850?) is 1867 so its credible that she is the sister of Agnes (born 1852). The Genealogical Magazine, Vol. 5, p. 471 "The King has been graciously pleased to confer the Decoration of the Royal Red Cross upon Miss Margaret Fanny Keyser and Miss Agnes Keyser in recognition of services rendered to the sick and wounded returned from South Africa" They both look notable and there is a brother (or father) Charles who founded a convalescent home too. Philafrenzy (talk) 18:09, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Is Fanny notable? Which book looks notable? Whispyhistory (talk) 18:43, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Possibly but it needs more research. It may be she had a greater role in founding the hospital than has been recognised. They both got awards. (both not book) Philafrenzy (talk) 19:38, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Thank you ...interesting...who is Broderip? Another important story. I'll help out. Whispyhistory (talk) 16:42, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * You've responded like a true Wikipedian! There's no mention of Messers Broderip on the hospital bible, unfortunately. No Swan So Fine (talk) 16:45, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * ...I have phoned a friend and will see if anyone knows... I remember that famous hospital visit. Whispyhistory (talk) 16:54, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Could it be a Francis Broderip? Whispyhistory (talk) 17:58, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Very likely but it needs a RS to say so. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:09, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't have that yet but that Broderip was noted on 5 August 1871 to have died recently, while the one above died on 17 July 1871. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:28, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * That was a lot of money then. I'll update the Middlesex Hospital page with his donor details. No Swan So Fine (talk) 20:09, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * fyi...The Middlesex Hospital ... I believe the building was to be demolished until the Dickens discovery . Dickens once lived some doors away..."A famous local miser lived nearby, who might have served as a model for Scrooge, in A Christmas Carol. A shoemaker and mender lived opposite who may have inspired the famous cockney character Sam Weller, in Pickwick Papers: his name? Dan Weller. The central plot-line of Oliver Twist—which features a locket stolen from the body of Oliver's mother after she dies in childbirth—seems likely to have been influenced by the real pawnbroker's shop that stood between the workhouse and Dickens's home, and within sight of both. It is also noteworthy that in the novel, little Oliver wears a brown cloth cap—the same colour as the regulation workhouse uniform in real life. And it has even emerged that another shopkeeper in the street carried the same name (though differently spelled) as the murderous villain in Oliver Twist, Bill Sikes, spelt “Sykes”.". Whispyhistory (talk) 07:41, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * , ... Francis Broderip was a solicitor living in Gower Street who in 1866 had given £20,000 anonymously. He died in 1871 and in 1872 his pictures which he had bequeathed to the hospital were sold at Christie's and released another £20,000. It was decided to change the name of Clayton Ward to Broderip and this name was retained in the West Wing of the new building. At the same time two Broderip scholarships were founded and these were the top scholarships awarded each year to senior medical students. Whispyhistory (talk) 16:30, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, I read that in a Wikipedia article somewhere. Note: It was £20K nominal probably - i.e. those Brazilian bonds might have been worth £20K or they might have been worth £2. Philafrenzy (talk) 17:30, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Rolls Royce Battle of Britain Memorial Window
Hi! Just wanted to say what a lovely article that is. I've written a lot of articles on war memorials but it hadn't occurred to me that that one would be notable. With a bit of work, you could easily take that to GA status and possibly even FA if you were willing to put the work and the research in. Best, HJ Mitchell &#124; Penny for your thoughts? 11:26, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you ...The window is a beautiful memorial. I would appreciate if you could check through the article. It's not a topic I have written about before. I'll have a look in investing in some books. If you have any literature on the window...do you know much about Hugh Ray Easton, the memorial's designer? The editor of the Flying Lady says he was a doctor, but I can't verify that anywhere else. He did die in King Edward VII's Hospital, but maybe that was a military connection.

After Us, or the World as it Might Be
Good work. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:36, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks..could be better, but a start... your tags appear to work. Whispyhistory (talk) 09:40, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Apparently (there's no need to state the day or month of publication of a book - only for an article). Philafrenzy (talk) 09:46, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Also, I notice place of publication seems to be missing from all your templates. Why is that? Philafrenzy (talk) 09:47, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry, not always obvious. How should we add an image? I can take one of inside cover. The outside cover is plain blue only? Whispyhistory (talk) 09:50, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * It's still in copyright so there are limits. Cover normally but if plain there is little point. How plain? You could scan the title page (not the half-title) as that is a good substitute and should be free of copyright problems and so eligible for Commons. Did you invest in a scanner? If you have a multi-function printer somewhere they often include a scanning function on the top. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:56, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Leave it...it's totally plain. Yes...I have a scanner. Whispyhistory (talk) 09:58, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Which one? Philafrenzy (talk) 09:59, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Begins with colour laserjet pro...Whispyhistory (talk) 10:02, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * HP - most of them have a flat bed scanner under the lid. You will get better results from that than trying to use your phone as it removes glare etc. Philafrenzy (talk) 10:05, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Sure..there is a flat bed under the lid. Whispyhistory (talk) 10:06, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Worth learning to use it if you don't usually. Philafrenzy (talk) 10:07, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I like the drug photographs you have added to Commons, particularly the AZ vaccine which is nicely composed, however, they don't seem to be in use in Wikipedia. Any reason? Philafrenzy (talk) 17:55, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Also, purely hypothetically, do people (not me) who have a mildly adverse reaction to the vaccine generate more antibodies than those that notice no side-effects? Philafrenzy (talk) 22:19, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia does not give medical advice. You should see your GP: make an appointment in the morning. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 23:21, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I wasn't seeking and don't need medical advice, as I made clear RedRose. Philafrenzy (talk) 23:30, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * There were already images around, but use them if think useful. CDC, FAQs. I found a book by this author on my shelf...looks possible 1721 so might try it in the scanner. In the list of surgeons I have recently been looking at, there are a few in red, who I haven't been able to figure out who they are... if you can, please let me know. Whispyhistory (talk) 03:46, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I will look. (Those links answer a different question) Philafrenzy (talk) 08:01, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Re-read the question... Because vaccines work by triggering your immune system to produce a reaction, you can however have side effects after you receive the vaccine that feel similar to having a real infection.  Things like having a fever, or feeling achey, or getting a headache (often described as “flu-like” symptoms) are common after receiving many vaccines and this is the same for the approved COVID-19 vaccines.  Having these symptoms means that your immune system is working as it should be.  Usually, these symptoms last a much shorter time than a real infection would (most are gone within the first 1-2 days). . and ... "If You Don’t Get Sick After Your COVID-19 Vaccination, Does It Mean Your Immune System Isn’t Working?" ... everyone is different... "you shouldn’t be alarmed if you don’t experience any adverse reactions".  Whispyhistory (talk) 14:31, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * That's still not it. By mimicking the real virus, the vaccine, which is harmless, trains the body to produce antibodies that would fight a real infection. Is the amount of antibodies higher where people have an adverse reaction such as "flu-type" symptoms than where people experience no side-effects because in the former the body is working harder to repel the attack that it thinks it is under and so produces more antibodies? Philafrenzy (talk) 15:23, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * BBC piece answering exactly the question that I asked. Philafrenzy (talk) 10:02, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

John Scadding neurologist is notable. You might like him because he wrote this. Wyndham Lloyd Davies is Reginald Wyndham Lloyd Davies, author of the Color Atlas of Urology, and possibly notable if the book was widely reviewed. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:28, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks..they appear familiar. Any older older ? Can this be dyk'ed? I wasn't sure. Whispyhistory (talk) 19:29, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
 * "older older"? Yes, why not? Philafrenzy (talk) 19:41, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry, ...meant one older not double older. I meant the 1914 list. Also couldn't find any list for 1904, which would be interesting.Whispyhistory (talk) 18:46, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I will look later but if you can't find the 1904 list, I doubt I will be able to. Philafrenzy (talk) 18:54, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Do you have this? Philafrenzy (talk) 20:08, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * And this?Philafrenzy (talk) 20:14, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * No...neither...but the second list is in the book by Richard Hough. Good find. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:20, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Buy the first while you can. It includes the 1904 list. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:24, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * How do you know it has the 1904 list? I've never used eBay..will have a look. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:39, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Interesting find. He must have translated in parts earlier and the whole version published in 1883. I will have a look. Whispyhistory (talk) 12:03, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thursley Hall, Farnham Lane, Haslemere, Waverley, Surrey, GU27 1HA. Probably his family home. (part way down there is a gallery - move the slider to see all the pictures) Philafrenzy (talk) 08:50, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Another interesting find...from Bulandshahr to Surrey. Whispyhistory (talk) 12:03, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * It's not a listed building but it may be possible to establish a definitive link for the article. Somebody in Surrey should photograph it. Philafrenzy (talk) 12:32, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Read the Stamp article. He wanted native craftsmen and materials while the Public Works Department wanted the same sort of utilitarian colonial buildings they had built all over the hot bits of the empire - verandah's white washing etc. At least, that's how I read it. Philafrenzy (talk) 08:07, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * It's related to Gothic and Arts and Crafts architecture where it is all about traditionalism and anti-industrial. Philafrenzy (talk) 08:09, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I think he tries to explain himself a little in the preface of the 1884 book. Whispyhistory (talk) 08:20, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Will look. Still no reliably sourced image of him. Philafrenzy (talk) 08:22, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

Amazing book. ISBN 1405302674 is the edition to buy, should you be so motivated. There are "Very Good" copies on Amazon from £1.39 plus postage thus proving that the price of second hand books relates far more strongly to supply than quality. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:42, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

What's the title as stated on the title page? The cover title is often not the "real" title - it's more like a slogan to entice you to buy. Also search Victoria and Abdul at the British Library catalogue as they have relevant material. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:55, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
