Unfortunately, this version of Wikipedia is not the place for non-notable fictional countries/governments/political parties. However, there are other websites like Fandom that are open to such topics. I would suggest moving your content there.

I really recommend you familiarize yourself with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines if you wish to continue editing here. On that topic, I recommend responding to the sock puppet investigation on your account.

Again, I would kindly ask that you re-evaluate and improve your editing. Wishing the best for you/your friend. Sincerely, --Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 14:31, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Paid editing

Hi Classicwiki. Your work patrolling for potential undisclosed paid editing is appreciated, but please remember to be exceptionally careful about posting personal information while doing so. – Joe (talk) 15:17, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Joe Roe, absolutely. Is this in response to a NY-based charity/foundation? -- Classicwiki (talk) If you reply to me here, please ping me. 16:46, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah. It's an understandable mistake, but the combination of job title plus company narrowed things down too far. I know you didn't do it on purpose but I'd be remiss if I didn't say something. – Joe (talk) 20:44, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Joe, thanks for noting. I believe I gave three users a COI warning about that page because of their possible connection. Another time, an admin said I was not posting enough info on the talk page to show COI to justify the tag. So, I was trying to be accurate, but I understand how this instance might have been unintentionally too specific. I see that you have already redacted that information, thank you for that. -- Classicwiki (talk) If you reply to me here, please ping me. 20:54, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know the context of that advice but I'd definitely always err on the side of not being specific. You can always email the information to the functionaries if in doubt. – Joe (talk) 20:59, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

July music

I remember today Bach's 1724 cantata for this Sunday which is unusual in many respects. Thank you for pointing me at Liana Isakadze to the Main page, but another woman needs attention for RD, Marina Kondratyeva. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:22, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

She's on the Main page now. My story today is - because of the anniversary of the premiere OTD in 1782 - about Die Entführung aus dem Serail, opera by Mozart, while yesterday's was - because of the TFA - about Les contes d'Hoffmann, opera by Offenbach, - so 3 times Mozart if you click on "music" ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:42, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Today's story is about a photographer who took iconic pictures, especially View from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, on Manhattan, 9/11, yesterday's was a great mezzo, and on Thursday we watched a sublime ballerina. If that's not enough my talk offers the chamber music from two amazing concerts. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:38, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
