Debby Kerner & Ernie Rettino

[edit]

Given your look at Debby Kerner & Ernie Rettino, I would also suggest scoping out Hi-Tops (film). I still argue DK&ER are probably notable but I couldn't find much on the film. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 22:28, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for W leju po bombie

[edit]

On 21 March 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article W leju po bombie, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Andrzej Sapkowski, the creator of The Witcher, described his short story W leju po bombie as the only one of his works that can be classified as science fiction? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/W leju po bombie. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, W leju po bombie), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Polish assistance?

[edit]

Hello Piotrus, looking through some old content of mine I found I wrote about A Wizard of Earthsea: "In 1984 it won the Złota Sepulka [pl] or the "Golden Sepulka" in Poland." The citations I had for this are poor, and I can't find better ones. Do you have insight into whether this is worth mentioning in an FA? If so, would you be willing to check for sourcing in Polish, just for that statement? Best, Vanamonde93 (talk) 00:18, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanamonde93 The award is notable, so I think it should be mentioned. A quick search (I am leaving home right now) yielded this seemingly RS: https://cejsh.icm.edu.pl/cejsh/element/bwmeta1.element.ojs-doi-10_24425_kn_2023_146546 , seems to be in English even, and could be useful for something else, perhaps?

Perfect, thanks! The book has so much published analysis that it might be difficult to work in elsewhere but I will have a look. Vanamonde93 (talk) 02:17, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Interestingly, it does post-date my writing of the FA, which would explain why I couldn't find it then. Vanamonde93 (talk) 02:20, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
FYI the Sepulka award is pretty niche. I still lean towards the view that FA on a book should list all awards, but I could see how for some it could be close to trivia. So it's your call. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:31, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Psychiatry Under the Influence

[edit]

Hello! Funnily enough, I was tasked with finding a DOI for an article in one of my classes; which led me to your Psychiatry Under the Influence wiki page. To preface, I have never written or edited a wiki page so I don’t have the skill to edit a page properly. With this, I noticed that there is a small error within the citation referencing

Marecek, Jeanne (November 2016). "Robert Whitaker and Lisa Cosgrove, Psychiatry under the influence: Institutional corruption, social injury, and prescriptions for reform" [. Feminism & Psychology. 26 (4): 511-514. doi:10.1177/0959353516663966 . ISSN 0959-3535 C.

This error being, that the DOI links to a review of the source, not the actual source. And when I looked, it doesn’t appear that the referenced work has a DOI so it may cause some confusion. If you have a better solution than just removing it, feel free to let me know, as I am still learning about proper citation!

Thanks!
