quick revision deletion request
hello, A pretty bad edit was made on Bird-of-Paradise, as seen here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bird-of-paradise&diff=prev&oldid=1239026637. I think it's worth a revdel. Gaismagorm (talk) 23:31, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

KlayCax Tban
Hello. I see that you gave KlayCax a topic ban and a warning about infoboxes. I was just wondering if you were going to formally post a notice on their talk page about the topic ban, and a infobox warning notice as well. Prcc27 (talk) 08:11, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reminder, I seem to have let it drop amidst all the logging and closing. Now done. Vanamonde93 (talk) 15:42, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
Adminship
Hi Vanamonde,
I want to request for adminship.
Sincerely,
कङञ@Vanamonde93 कङञ (talk) 14:26, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) @कङञ: You have 79 edits and are still very much a newcomer to the site. I'd suggest gaining more experience before asking people about that path. Successful admins have usually spent years editing and have thousands of edits to their name. I'd just focus on improving articles that interest you which is what we're really about. You don't need adminship for that. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 14:30, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
Featured articles
Hi Vanamonde. I'm still working on Jehovah's Witnesses but it's in much better shape than it was when I first started rewriting it two years ago. [1] I think I'm getting closer to where I could start the FAC process, though? There's still some stuff I'd like to do before I even start that (see my sandbox) and this will probably involve several more hours of work. But when I feel like I've done the best I can, would you be willing to provide advice? I've never tried to write an FA before and I realize this is an ambitious first.

- Hi Clover, it is a little outside my wheelhouse but it would be my pleasure. It's a large undertaking, so thank you for doing that. Vanamonde93 (talk) 18:03, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
- I'll get back to you when I've done everything I can think of to improve the article then. Thank you! Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 18:07, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks. Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 17:21, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
