Thank you



Just wanted to say thank you for adding Assemblies of Yahweh to the Bethel, Berks County, Pennsylvania ↗ page, although it was a few years back, it still was a pleasant surprise. Keep up the good work. In Citer (talk) 10:29, 25 December 2019 (UTC)

You're welcome - Happy Christmas. BobKilcoyne (talk) 10:41, 25 December 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion ↗ of :Menachem ↗


left|link=|alt=Notice|48px| ↗

The article :Menachem ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗ because of the following concern:
<blockquote>Superfluous article based upon an alternate (and less accurate) transliteration of the Hebrew name Menahem (disambiguation) ↗ {{lang|he|מנחם}}; both are acceptable (and mostly interchangeable) transliterations of the exact same name and should all be listed in one place.</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons ↗.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary ↗ or on the article's talk page ↗.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process ↗, but other deletion process ↗es exist. In particular, the speedy deletion ↗ process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion ↗ allows discussion to reach consensus ↗ for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> StonyBrook (talk) 01:26, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

Just to be clear, I am proposing that Menachem ↗ be eventually redirected to Menahem (disambiguation) ↗ after the entire list is moved. StonyBrook (talk) 01:26, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

Merger discussion for Menachem ↗


50px|frameless|left ↗ An article that you have been involved in editing&mdash;Menachem ↗&mdash;has been '''proposed for merging ↗''' with another article. If you are interested, please participate in the merger discussion ↗. Thank you. StonyBrook (talk) 23:10, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

Daniel mundane



Hi Bob. The word "mundane" was being used in the sense of earthly rather than boring, but since you're not the first to object I'm happy to remove it. Achar Sva (talk) 09:02, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
:Thank you, Achar Sva. Actually, I thought the words "an account of the activities and visions of Daniel" should be retained as they provide a succinct and objective summary of the contents of the book, as well as the message. I agree about the message but I would balance this with the contents. - BobKilcoyne (talk) 04:51, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

List of OMB Circulars



Thank you -- this is an important list.

I had such an adverse experience trying to create the article "Executive_Order_12866 ↗" that I gave up trying to edit. Use this information if it floats your boat.

If I were still editing, I would add OMB Bulletins to the list? From https://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/information-for-agencies/bulletins The ones whose lifetimes extends past a single fiscal year include --

Copying licensed material requires attribution



Hi. I see in a recent addition to :British government response to the COVID-19 pandemic ↗ you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 21:05, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
:Diannaa, thanks for this but do you really think that the attribution needs to be added at the end of every line? This seems to me to be rather excessive. - BobKilcoyne (talk) 05:55, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
::Oh I see it now. You have an attribution template at the beginning of the citation, so one is not actually needed where I added it. Sorry for the mistake.— Diannaa (talk) 14:16, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
::Thanks - so which place would be best for the attribution, at '''the beginning of the citation''', after the fourth bullet point in this section, or somewhere else? - BobKilcoyne (talk) 16:51, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
:::The wording of the template you used indicates it's intended for use at the beginning of the citation. I had not seen this particular template before; that's why I didn't notice it there. The way I do it adds attribution at the end of the citation. Both are okay. — Diannaa (talk) 20:21, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Removal of maintenance template for List of Statutory Instruments of the United Kingdom, 2017



I've removed the wikilinks template that you added to the article List of Statutory Instruments of the United Kingdom, 2017 ↗, since I believe that there are a sufficient number of links to other pages on the article now. Please let me know if you have any objections to this, or still think there should be more links. Nabikunyoi (talk) 23:38, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Contract theory (law) ↗ moved to draftspace



An article you recently created, Contract theory (law) ↗, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable ↗, independent sources ↗. <small>(? ↗)</small> Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability ↗ is of central importance ↗ on Wikipedia). In addition, this article reads like an essay, so please review WP:NOTESSAY ↗. I've moved your draft to draftspace ↗ (with a prefix of "<code>Draft:</code>" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

Removal of the word 'Jesus'


Hello Bob, I noticed you removed the work 'Jesus' ↗ in one of the links for Christ in the Joseph Franklin Rutherford ↗ article. Was just wondering why. My thinking was that the name of Jesus should occur at least once in any article where Christianity is a topic, such that it is for the Rutherford article. Best, -- ''Gwillhickers'' (talk) 17:14, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
:Hi, ''Gwillhickers'', thanks for getting in touch. There are five references to Jesus in the body of the article. The first one refers to him as "Jesus Christ" and this wikilinks to the article Jesus ↗. The link I removed was in the citation for P.S.L. Johnson's ''The Present Truth and Herald of Christ's Epiphany'', where there is no need for a link. Have a good afternoon! BobKilcoyne (talk) 17:48, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
