Bedsitcom

Hello there A Thousand Doors.

Firstly, I must apologise because I am not at all familiar with the formal conventions of Wikipedia, and so am not sure whether this is the appropriate place to ask this question. Anyway, I have discovered that you are largely responsible for the Wikipedia page for Bedsitcom, a show that I have been unable to track down and watch despite persistent efforts over the past couple of years (indeed ever since I read the page I've been fascinated by this elusive programme). However, since you have been able to write and maintain such a thorough Wikipedia entry, I am (dearly) hoping that you have some way of watching the show. If this is the case, could you please reach out to me at atrophyh@gmail.com? I would be eternally grateful for anything you could do to point me in the direction of a place where I could watch Bedsitcom. Thanks in advance, and once again I apologise profusely if this question violates any of the talk page guidelines.

All best (Atrophy husband (talk) 20:33, 16 December 2020 (UTC))[reply]

Hi there Atrophy husband, thank you for your message. I wish that I had some better news for you, but unfortunately I haven't had access to the episodes of Bedsitcom for several years now, and, like you, I haven't been able to find them anywhere online either. I'm sorry that I can't be more help to you. The only thing that I can suggest is to contact either the production company that made the show (Objective Productions) or maybe one of the writers (Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong are both on Twitter, for example), and ask them if Bedsitcom was released on DVD or is available to stream anywhere. I wouldn't get your hopes up, but best of luck! A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 12:26, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for February 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited AQA Anthology, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Michele Roberts. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:17, 27 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Diet Coke Break

Having my edit reverted set off my inner pedant, so I had a look at the references on the page :). I was aware of the policy on leads when I made the edit, I should have taken longer to verify that there was unsourced material.

I'm not sure that there's a reference on the page that supports the claim that the Canadian government pulled it, I tried to find one, but there is certainly no inline citation after that sentence
BBC iPlayer references (25 and 27) are not the most verifiable, but they're not used for content in the lead and probably don't need "better citation needed" templates
The plot of "Lift" was supported, but not by the nearest inline references, so I re-used a reference from elsewhere after that sentence. I don't think any of the references mention that the ladies "return to their desks" so that could be cut, though references do discuss that it is likely a recurring incident, which is perhaps more interesting.

DYK for Pro-EU leaflet

On 6 January 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Pro-EU leaflet, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a 2016 leaflet published by the British government warned that Brexit would increase the cost of living and lead to a decade or more of uncertainty? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/EU leaflet. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Pro-EU leaflet), 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.

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Pro-EU leaflet you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Hoary -- Hoary (talk) 04:42, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've finished reviewing the article, and that I did so by plonking a plus mark on it. Well done, and I hope that the GA process wasn't so arduous or otherwise horrible that you'll give up on it. (I'm amazed/amused to realize that, as far as I recall, I gave up on it for seventeen years.) -- Hoary (talk) 02:29, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your diligent review, Hoary! Your advice and feedback have certainly improved the article. Thanks again! A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 10:25, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Great Reality TV Swindle

I note that you created Great Reality TV Swindle (12 years ago, I know, but I see that you've edited it as recently as last year, so maybe you're still interested?). I've opened a discussion on the talk page that I'd invite you to weigh in on -- I believe that the basic premise of the article, and the article's title, are wrong. The con that Nik Russian came up with was a thing called Project MS-2; later Channel 4 aired a documentary titled The Great Reality TV Swindle about the con. Since the actual documentary is barely mentioned in passing in the "Media reactions" section, I believe the article would be better titled Project MS-2. Let me know your thoughts.

Peer review request

Hello A Thousand Doors, it's been a while. You might recall reviewing my list of List of best-selling Latin albums in the United States.
