Greetings, is there any chance you could take a look at Misti and see whether the things noted in its failed FAC can be resolved? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:49, 2 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Jo-Jo Eumerus, I sporadically have only small blocks of free time, often interrupted making concentration difficult, and I see issues there beyond those raised in the FAC -- it will take some time to get through and write up queries ... I will try my best, but no promises as to how long it may take. I could use article talk, but I was wondering if you would rather open a peer review to engage Femke and ImaginesTigers as well, or if you prefer to work on article talk as we usually do. In either case, it will take a while, but I will try to find time to pick away at it. I'm sorry I've not been able to be of much use to anyone lately.

PS, maybe Hawkeye7 knows why the FAC hasn't been closed yet by FACbot. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:25, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@FAC coordinators: The nomination has not been closed. That requires a {{FACClosed}} template. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 18:06, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have had another attempt. Let us see if that one sticks. Gog the Mild (talk) 20:21, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The nomination has been processed. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 00:30, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Femke said on their talk page they'll be too busy, hence why I asked here. Didn't think to ask ImaginesTigers though, thanks for that advice. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 07:10, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jo-Jo. Let me post some thoughts on the article Talk! Shame about Femke not having time but their review was pretty detailed. – ImaginesTigers 08:59, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I guess going by the comments that Femke and ChatGPT gave to me, I guess the problem is in part that many of the suggested changes either make reviewing more difficult, lose comprehensiveness or break the flow. So unlike other pre-FAC writeups, here it's as much about resolving disagreements, e.g comprehensiveness vs clarity, as noting issues. I tend to think that comprehensiveness is Wikipedia's most important strength, so I tend to value it more. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:03, 29 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Jo-Jo I keep intending to get back there and continue ... SandyGeorgia (Talk) 10:29, 29 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Gentle poke. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:30, 5 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Last poke, in case you have time. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 11:10, 6 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Coeliac disease

Hey, I noticed you making some edits to the Celiac page, and partially cleaning up after me after I added some newer citations. I found some really good sources that I plan to use to update and consolidate some of the older and random sources (this should also hopefully make further updates easier). However I use citer to generate my citations and they don’t have the vancouver style for citations. Is there an easy way to generate vanc citations so you don’t have to go back and change the ones I’m adding? As far as keeping the article at a FA status, I think the main thing that needs to be done is updating the sources (which will also help get rid of the unsourced areas as well). This is obviously a time consuming task, but I’m fairly confident that I could get a good start on it. If there’s anything else that jumps out at you as far as things that need to be done, let me know and I’ll add it to my list. Always nice to see your username pop up in my watchlist and I hope things are going well for you out there in the real world. IntentionallyDense ^(Contribs) 21:09, 17 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, ID ... thank you for taking that on. I'm not sure if you know that Jfdwolff was a founder of WP:MED, and his work warrants preserving. Don't worry about whatever cite script you use; I don't mind cleaning up. My life right now is not going well at all, and such that I can't do work that requires sustained concentration, but mindless citation cleanup work helps distract me when I am nervous and staring at the walls at home, and I don't mind doing it. But at this point, I'll probably wait 'til you're further along so I don't get in your way. (I think there's also some setting somewhere in the article that converts most authors to vauthors anyway, so I was mostly working on page ranges.)

I started listing things on the FAR, but then realized there's still enough work to be done that using the article talk page may serve better. There's some pretty dense language that could be well cleaned up by Colin, but he too might want to hold off 'til more of the updating is done. Thank you for taking it on! How about if you ping all of us (Colin, Ajpolino, Graham Beards and WAID) to talk when you're ready for the next steps? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:18, 17 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I didn’t know he was a founder, but I saw the page and thought it was in great shape for such an old medical FA and immediately wanted to help clean it up. I appreciate the help with the citation cleanup as a lot of the Wikipedia editing I do now is late at night as my days are pretty busy (I to have a sick family member just not sick in the conventional way). Right now I’m going to focus on sources however I may have some questions about WP:WEIGHT as that’s an area I never got the hang of but I do know Colin and WAID excel in that area.

On Venezuela-related contributions

Hi SandyGeorgia,

I wanted to sincerely thank you for your recent contributions to 2025 United States strike on Venezuelan boat and Proposed United States invasion of Venezuela. Your edits have strengthened the reliability and overall quality of these articles, and it’s clear how much care you put into ensuring accuracy and neutrality.

I also wanted to share with you a draft I first created about five years ago but left unfinished: User:Cyfraw/Indictment of Nicolás Maduro. With renewed tensions between the United States and Venezuela, I’ve decided to revive the draft and work on improving it. Given your experience and contributions to Venezuela-related articles, your input—whether through editing, sourcing, or even just providing feedback—would be especially valuable.

My hope is to develop this into a well-sourced, balanced article that complements the broader set of Venezuela-related pages currently under construction.

Once again, thank you for your hard work. I am awarding you a barnstar afterwards in recognition of your continued efforts. Best regards,

cyrfaw (talk) 17:56, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Once the article draft is finalized and ready to publish, the new title of it will be United States of America v. Nicolás Maduro Moros. Thanks --cyrfaw (talk) 17:58, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WP:MED News

Asthma, HIV/AIDS and Meningitis are all in need of some tender love and care, with a median source date between 2008 and 2011. Many clinical guidelines note changes from earlier versions, so updating diagnosis and management sections may be doable even if you have less time on your hand.
