The history of manufactured gas article seems like a very interesting topic. I look forward to reading the whole thing.

GA review of Friedrich Accum

I've reviewed the article and left notes on the talk page. I've put the nomination on hold for seven days to allow the issues to be addressed. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, here, or on the article talk page with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on.

Duh. Sorry. Got distracted. I'll check it over in a few. Ealdgyth - Talk 21:15, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Pending changes/Straw poll on interim usage

Hi. As you recently commented in the straw poll regarding the ongoing usage and trial of Pending changes, this is to notify you that there is an interim straw poll with regard to keeping the tool switched on or switching it off while improvements are worked on and due for release on November 9, 2010. This new poll is only in regard to this issue and sets no precedent for any future usage. Your input on this issue is greatly appreciated. Off2riorob (talk) 23:29, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

erroneous Summary, incomplete Licensing

File:Jethro Tull seed drill (1752).png by Bwwm (talk| contribs)
refers to Horse-hoeing husbandry; 4th edition; 1762; Tull, Jethro, 1674-1741; Adams, John, 1735-1826, former owner; (Boston Public Library) or similar copy, yet the Summary is erroneous and Licensing is incomplete. If the image is from the 4th edition then the file name is incorrect. Any suggestions ? (cc: McZusatz's talk) Xb2u7Zjzc32 (talk) 10:19, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Miserere

Hi there,

You probably have more Latin than I (who am confused by en:Wiktionary) but this seems to confirm one's intuition that imperative is correct, or? Sparafucil (talk) 09:42, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

I think you're correct. That was my original thought. But then I look in the English Wiktionary which lists "miserare" as the imperative and the "miserere" as the subjucntive. So something is confused in Wikiland. This and this lists it as imperative, so I think we should go with that. How to fix Wiktionary? --Bwwm (talk) 16:23, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

I think the English Wiktionary is simply missing the proper entry for "misereor". It thinks it's the passive form (which it is), but it's also a deponent verb. --Bwwm (talk) 16:34, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
