Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, people's rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension. Happy Holidays to you and yours. ―Buster7 ☎

The Barnstar of Diligence

I award this barnstar to the stupendously committed "Victuallers, the Goal Setter" who wrote on the WiR talkpage on 20 Dec 2023: "So today's the day. This time last year I thought I wonder if I could write a new women's biog every day for a year. I'd tried before and messed it up at #360. So I started in December last year so I could officially start a full year this January. Well its complete and Wikipedia even records the names and dates here. During the year, I completed my 8 year run of notable ODNB women and ran out of missing ODNB Women in Red. I had to turn to Aussie women on the ADB. All of the 365 articles have fed into one of the WIR editathons." For this, you inspire me and countless others. So with appreciation and thanks, this barnstar is for you. Rosiestep (talk) 20:09, 3 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks Rosie, I will warm my tootsies on your kind greeting. Ive been thrilled to see WIR Tee shirts in Ghana - not sure whos idea but I'm feeling quite smug. Victuallers (talk) 23:03, 3 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

WikiProject Unreferenced articles | February 2024 Backlog Drive
There is a substantial backlog of unsourced articles on Wikipedia, and we need your help! The purpose of this drive is to add sources to these unsourced articles and make a meaningful impact. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles cited. Remember to tag your edit summary with [[WP:FEB24]], both to advertise the event and tally the points later using Edit Summary Search. Interested in taking part? Sign up here.

Hello, Victuallers. Would you please see the discussion at Talk:Wiltshire County Council, in particular my last post there, and give us some thoughts from the point of view of an Admin? Kind regards, Moonraker (talk)

I had a look. I can see that it appears to have got into a tricky place but everyone seems to have an entrenched position. I don't think anyone intended to create this but now its there. Is it impossible to create a compromise? I'm not sure that discussing what would be ideal will help as surely it may be necessary to target a new position which is not optimal. Victuallers (talk) 23:05, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I'm guessing you stumbled across that article somehow? I was working through the list of Cat A buildings in Moray, trying to tick off any that didn't have articles (a job I've yet to finish, but I made some headway), and I came across her while researching Aberlour House. I was intrigued, and started digging, and just kept getting more intrigued. I still can't believe her story isn't more widely known. Girth Summit _(blether) 16:00, 27 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Victuallers, I'm working on updating Amplify (company), a curriculum and assessment company.

Hi there, I just noticed you'd been using WP:FEB24 in some edit summaries; you know that drive hasn't started yet? It's good work adding sources nonetheless though! -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:31, 29 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Its something I do all the time to keep down the unreferenced women. I saw an advert for the drive and thought I may as well add the tag - (why would I wait?). I think Ive done abt 60.. I'm not too fussed about points - but keen to inspire others to rid us of unreferenced articles. Oh and thank for all your corrections and enhancements to "my?" articles. Victuallers (talk) 11:05, 30 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I'm sure the tag will help advertise it and get others involved. I'm happy to help - I'm very much a WP:GNOME at times. :-) -Kj cheetham (talk) 18:44, 30 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
