Pl help confirm 'First Muslim Woman Who Cycled The World'
I find this news "Story Of First Muslim Woman Who Cycled The World" on Iranian media ifpnews and only other ref on google is https://www.ibna.ir/en/report/175118/mahdavi-nader-my-book-is-a-souvenir-of-peace

Pl help in fact checking there is no other publicly known Muslim woman to make similar claim. If we do not find any other then I plan to include the claim in the article. &#32;Bookku   (talk) 10:05, 13 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks to you, Bookku, I have been reading about women who have cycled around the world and they are amazing. None identified as Muslim, but I am only able to search in certain European languages. Have you thought about asking at the Language desk for native speakers who might be able to help you search in Arabic, Indonesian, Persian, Kazakh, Urdu, etc? 70.67.193.176 (talk) 14:49, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Many thanks, That seems to be a good idea. &#32;Bookku   (talk) 15:56, 15 February 2023 (UTC)

Putin's and other rogues' Twitter accounts
Seeing with some surprise that Putin's official Twitter account has still not been blocked so far, and reading this, I wonder how these inconsistencies in Twitter's blocking policy with regard to foreign leaders come about. Hildeoc (talk) 22:58, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Hildeoc -- Search Google for newsworthiness exemption twitter for some ideas. Twitter has never enforced consistent standards  (and has taken a right-turn under Musk), but it has lacked the special sanctimonious hypocrisy of Facebook in the face of repeated scandals, and so maybe has received a little less criticism than it should...

 * There is a saying originating from something Napoleon Bonaparte said at the Battle of Austerlitz: "Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 51.198.141.181 (talk) 20:46, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
