Pennatomys nivalis scheduled for TFA[edit]

This is to let you know that the Pennatomys nivalis article has been scheduled as today's featured article for July 15, 2022. Please check the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/July 15, 2022, but note that a coordinator will trim the lead to around 1000 characters anyway, so you aren't obliged to do so.

For Featured Articles promoted recently, there will be an existing blurb linked from the FAC talk page, which is likely to be transferred to the TFA page by a coordinator at some point.

We suggest that you watchlist Wikipedia:Main Page/Errors from the day before this appears on Main Page. Thanks! Jimfbleak - talk to me? 18:55, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WP:URFA/2020[edit]

You are invited to WP:URFA/2020, a working group reviewing featured articles promoted between 2004 and 2015. Specifically, we need your help to review articles that you nominated to determine if they still meet the featured article criteria. If you have any questions, please ask on the working group’s talk page. Hope to see you there! Z1720 (talk) 17:02, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for August 4[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ummulisani, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Prefrontal. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Always precious[edit]

Ten years ago, you were found precious. That's what you are, always. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:10, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you today for Pennatomys, about a "snowy winged mouse... This is one of the victims of a "forgotten mass extinction", which killed off the entire diverse (but mostly undescribed) oryzomyine rodent fauna of the Lesser Antilles"! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:40, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you today for Cryptoprocta spelea, introduced (in 2010): This was the largest carnivore known from Madagascar, large enough to eat some of the giant extinct lemurs. We don't know much about it, except that it was quite big and that it is probably no longer there. I got some help from Visionholder, who also made the map, in finding information and Sasata gave a great GA review."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:04, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you today for Oryzomys antillarum, introduce (in 2010): "This is a good old rice rat, from Jamaica this time. It's one of the many insular animal species that have gone extinct in the last few centuries. We know relatively much about it, but most of that knowledge is buried in the older literature." --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:00, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Duplinks update for change to repeated links[edit]

For years I've found your duplinks tool very useful for identifying overlinking in the form of repeated links. In July 2023, a discussion led to a small but significant change to MOS:REPEATLINK. Now it is permissible to link the first occurrence in each section (at level 2, i.e. ==). Would you be willing and able to update duplinks to not flag such links as repeats? --Worldbruce (talk) 16:26, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would, but a few years ago I already changed my script to import Evad37's version: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Ucucha/duplinks.js&diff=prev&oldid=879913299. So it would be better to just change that version.

I feel that ideally useful scripts like this should be maintained in the WP: namespace so that they're not limited to one person maintaining them. Not sure if there's a process for that though; as you may have seen I'm not very active any more :) Ucucha (talk) 16:30, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
