Hey, you've been a lot of help when it's come to FLC reviews for me in the recent months, so I was wondering if you had some time, if you could have a look at my first FAC. If you're busy or not interested, no problem. -- ZooBlazer 01:14, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I will try and take a look in the next few days! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:35, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

		The Reviewer Barnstar
		You are one of the pillars and driving forces in the FAC and FLC review processes. Your contributions and quality of work have been recognized numerous times, and I am one of the many who have greatly benefited and learned from your expertise and tireless reviews in the FA and FL, as well as FT spaces in Wikipedia. It is truly an honor to have a chance to collaborate, interact and receive feedback from one of the greats! May you continue to inspire many more editors with the wealth and diversity of your work!

@Pseud 14: - gosh, thank you for your very kind words! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:49, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, if I had known it was your topic then I would've asked you about it before nominating it. I apologise for the inconvenience because I know how tedious WP:FTs can be. Idiosincrático (talk) 11:16, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am reaching out in regards to the wWiki entry from teh sinegr Mabel. Someone keeps reverting her background from "English-Swedish" to "English" siting "no proof of citizenship". I just included this link from The Guarding about Swedish RnB and souls singers. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/dec/01/scandipop-mabel-zhala-seinabo-sey In fact no article linked states her citizenhip as eitehr Swedish nor English, but having a Swedish mother, English father and spent ages 8-18 (ten years) in Swedena nd teh Swedish schol system, I fail to see how she shoudl only be listed as "English". Isn't this sabotage? Can you help out? (I remember when her mom became famous in the late 80's, media always questioned her being Swedish since she was black. Now Mabel seems to have teh same issue on Wikipedia. Frustrating Fantomen73 (talk) 20:12, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
