Discussion about your articles at the good articles talk page
There is a discussion on your articles ongoing at Good article nominations#Nominations of RabidTuberculosis ↗. I am surprised no one had given you a courtesy talk page message about this. IAWW (talk) 01:13, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
It would be good for you to make a constructive response to these issues. Watch out for pitchforks and torches......
WhaleFarm (talk) 16:10, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
:@It is a wonderful world Thanks for making me aware! And I greatly appreciate your kind words of support @WhaleFarm RabidTuberculosis (talk) 18:14, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
Kudos
Hi RabidTuberculosis, I wanted to leave a quick note commending you for such a graceful and mature reply at GA talk. Taking that volume of multi-venue feedback in stride is incredibly difficult; even constructively handling a single unsuccessful GAN closure is not always a given. So it's great to see that you were willing to keep working on those articles with WhaleFarm and in the end came away with a better understanding of close paraphrasing and text-source integrity. Wikipedia thrives on editors who are willing to keep learning as they go along. I hope in the future I'll see more of your work at DYK and GA. Best, Zzz plant (talk) 19:31, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
:@Zzz plant That's incredibly kind and sincerely appreciated, thank you. RabidTuberculosis (talk) 20:26, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
:I second this. It's quite inspirational and I hope if I'm ever in the same situation I will do the same. IAWW (talk) 21:56, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
