Query

[edit]

Hello, Onceinawhile,

I have a question for you. I was looking into why Andrevan had been blocked and saw comments you posted to User talk:Andrevan that implied that they had responded to a message that you posted. This happened recently even though the editor has been blocked since January so it leaves me a bit confused. Are you communicating via email or has he created a sockpuppet you are interacting with? Thanks for any clarification you can offer. Liz Read! Talk! 01:27, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Liz: Andrevan emailed me in July via wiki - they didn't have my email address so the email came from metawiki. I responded on wiki, and then they emailed back, and then we continued. I didn't ask about the block - in fact I didn't realize until your message now that there had been a block at all. Looking back in the talk page, this might offer some clues. It is a shame as I found Andrevan an impressive editor, even if we disagree on many things. Onceinawhile (talk) 01:56, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Masada myth

[edit]

On 20 September 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Masada myth, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that although Israel honored 27 ancient Masada skeletons with a state funeral in 1969, the story of "freedom fighters' patriotic last stand" is now known to be a myth? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Masada myth. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Masada myth), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
