Please see Wikipedia:Today's_featured_article/requests#May_7. I nominated to WP:TFAR an article you had successfully co-nominated at FAC, Albert Ball.
Thank you for your high-level quality improvement contributions to Wikipedia,

Dear Carcharoth, I agree with the ideas you present. It was/is not my intention to break any interaction bans. My primary concern is the continuation of slanderous accusations directed against me. These accusations date back to at least July 2013 (8 months!), and they have been going on non-stop. Arbitrators and administrators have issued various warnings, to several users, to put down the stick and move on with their editing.
Nonetheless, these warnings have done nothing to stop these users from consistently insulting me and/or breaching the interaction bans. I have taken my situation to ArbComm and AN/I (which was suggested by arbitrators), but nothing has come out of it.
Instead, what consistently happens is that these editors resort to WP:TLDR walls of text again arguing a case that has already been closed and archived. Regardless of whether their assessment is right or wrong, arbitrators and administrators have told these users to stop with the slander.
I am tired of the insults and perplexed by the lack of concrete actions against the slander. Please help me.--MarshalN20 Talk 00:16, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
I have just done a topical list, Wikipedia:WikiProject Dictionary of National Biography/Antiquarians. Mixed bunch, but I found some missing FRSs there, among other things. Charles Matthews (talk) 17:54, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
After a long reprieve from the article, I got back into it last night. If you get a moment have a quick loom over. Pretty sure it's up to GA now. But a ce wouldn't hurt-Labattblueboy (talk) 15:47, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.
Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
There is a discussion here about William Penn's 1683 treaty with the Lenape Indians, and specifically whether Voltaire's famous quote ("...a treaty never written, never broken") from his 1764 Dictionnaire philosophique was incorrect. Could you please take a look at it? Thanks! --Guy Macon (talk) 16:51, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
Round 3 of the 2014 WikiCup has just begun; 32 competitors remain. Pool G's Adam Cuerden (submissions) was Round 2's highest scorer, with a large number of featured picture credits. In March/April, he restored star charts from Urania's Mirror, lithographs of various warships (such as SMS Gefion) and assorted other historical media. Second overall was Pool E's Godot13 (submissions), whose featured list Silver certificate (United States) contains dozens of scans of banknotes recently promoted to featured picture status. Third was Pool G's ChrisGualtieri (submissions) who has produced a large number of good articles, many, including Falkner Island, on Connecticut-related topics. Other successful participants included Cliftonian (submissions), who saw three articles (including the top-importance Ian Smith) through featured article candidacies, and Caponer (submissions), who saw three lists (including the beautifully-illustrated list of plantations in West Virginia) through featured list candidacies. High-importance good articles promoted this round include narwhal from Reid,iain james (submissions), tiger from Cwmhiraeth (submissions) and The Lion King from Igordebraga (submissions). We also saw our first featured topic points of the competition, awarded to Czar (submissions) and Red Phoenix (submissions) for their work on the Sega Genesis topic. No points have been claimed so far for good topics or featured portals.
192 was our lowest qualifying score, again showing that this WikiCup is the most competitive ever. In previous years, 123 (2013), 65 (2012), 41 (2011) or 100 (2010) secured a place in Round 3. Pool H was the strongest performer, with all but one of its members advancing, while only the two highest scorers in Pools G and F advanced. At the end of June, 16 users will advance into the semi-finals. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

thoughts
Thank you for giving your precious time to thoughts, and for sharing them, thoughts on a BLP, on paid editing, and "how letting personal animosity and dislikes get in the way of the bigger picture ... destroys trust"- repeating: you are an awesome Wikipedian (30 December 2008)!
