Proposed deletion of File:Bounty Hunter from Kalgoolie.jpg[edit]
The file File:Bounty Hunter from Kalgoolie.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Seems to be a user-edited image created as part of an obscure joke in 2009. The underlying photograph is on Commons, by now in a better version.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((proposed deletion/dated files)) notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing ((proposed deletion/dated files)) will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Early glassmaking in the United States[edit]
@Amandajm: I noticed you are the creator of Early glassmaking in the United States. Thank you for your work on glassmaking. I would like to upgrade this article with the goal of Good Article. I would add something about the Germans in New England during the 1700s, the impact of tariffs in the early 1800s, Deming Jarves (red lead and New England Glass Company), Benjamin Bakewell (Bakewell Glass, Pittsburgh as a glassmaking center, and pressed glass), and William Leighton Sr. (J. H. Hobbs, Brockunier and Company and the discovery of the long-lost soda-lime formula for glass). The first section would be about Jamestown, but it would be smaller. I would also add a paragraph about general glassmaking procedures (some of which is in your Production section). (Michael Owens is the one American glassmaking great that would not be discussed, since his contributions to the industry are somewhat beyond "early".) This would mean "messing" with a lot of your hard work. If this offends you, I will leave things alone—I don't want to make anyone unhappy or even uncomfortable. If I can add this to my list of projects, I would not start immediately because I am working on other things. Your thoughts? TwoScars (talk) 15:48, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
Hi there, I'm just letting you know that the above Good Article (promoted between 2006 and 2009) is very far away from the the current good article criteria (specifically criterion 2b); I was going to nominate it at WP:GAR before I noticed that you, the original nominator, are still semi-active. If you would like to work on it to try and retain the rating, or if you feel that you can't bring it to current standards, please ping me and let me know. Best wishes, ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 10:14, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

I just had the pleasure of reading a section of Italian Renaissance painting—so informative and it brought me back to the pleasurable year in school that I first everstudied that subject. Your contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated! best, jengod (talk) 14:32, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
