March songs

my story today

Thank you for improving articles in March! - Today we remember the 150th birthday of Max Reger, who saw the horrors of a world war right when it began in 1914, while others were still in high patriotic moods -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:36, 19 March 2023 (UTC)

sharing impressions from vacation on Madeira 20-30 March, pics now at 24 Mar from the peaks --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:07, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello,

I have seen that you have made an edit to the 'Comoros-North Korea Relations' page on Wikipedia, namely reference 1, where you reference North Korea Quarterly. Vol. 10–13. Institute of Asian Affairs. 1977. p. 5.

I am trying to find a copy of this, could you please tell me where you found it?

Thank you CFOD (talk) 21:43, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi, CFOD. I've made two edits to that article (adding and removing stub tags) but I did not add this reference. The reference was already there in the very first edit that created the page. The user you're looking for is Stamboliyski. If it helps, you can see a snippet view of the source on Google Books though (changing the search term sometimes lets you see more): Google Books. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 22:42, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

April songs

my story today

Thank you for improving articles in April! - Today is the 80th birthday of John Eliot Gardiner. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:16, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi, Finn! Long time no see! I know that sometimes you are willing to translate non-English Wikipedia articles and change a red link to blue. I thought I might suggest one to you: Mikael Lybeck, an important poet, novelist, and playwright who at one point was considered the 'sole representative of Swedish literature in Finland' (after the death of K. A. Tavaststjerna [fi]) ... anyway, I'm currently working on Ödlan, which was Lybeck's first play and one to which Sibelius contributed incidental music. Sure the music is obscure and the play only had one production (with a mere six performances), but Lybeck's importance seems to extend far beyond this one work. Thanks for considering! ~ Silence of Järvenpää 18:00, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Dear Silence of Järvenpää, I almost forgot about this but now had it done. The article we now have is a direct translation. I'll try to look at ways to improve it some time later. Yours, – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 09:30, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

May songs

my story today

Thank you for improving articles in May. - I had a good story on coronation day: the Te Deum we sang that day. And the following day we sang it for the composer ;)

I nominated Soňa Červená for GA just to give her a bit more exposure, and I took some pics of bright scenery - click on songs. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:18, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

Pentecost was full of music, and my story today is that 300 years ago today, Bach became Thomaskantor, with BWV 75, writing music history. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:52, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

July songs

On today's Main page, you can find a cantata that Bach first performed 300 years ago (thanks to you!), and an iconic saxophonist from East Germany. Also: a bit about the history of QAI on my talk. Thank you for being part of it! A new member designed a user box that I adopted. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:58, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

While today's DYK highlights Santiago on his day, I did my modest share with my story today, describing what I just experienced, pictured. I began the article of the woman in green. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:44, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Hi, Finn! I hope you've been well. I have been working on article creation for Sibelius's lesser-known concertante works, one of which is the Suite for Violin and String Orchestra in D minor (1929; JS 185, Op. 117). The Suite was never performed in Sibelius's lifetime. It received its world premiere in Lahti, Finland on 8 December 1990, the composer's sesquicentennial; the Finnish conductor Osmo Vänskä conducted the Lahti Symphony Orchestra, with the Finnish violinist John Storgårds as soloist. I was hoping that you could kindly provide me with Helsingin Sanomat's coverage of this premiere ... including perhaps any critical review of this piece. Thanks! Warmly, ~ Silence of Järvenpää 14:27, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

@Silence of Järvenpää I've sent two translations by email. I might look into it further. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 21:28, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:China Zhi Gong Party logo.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
