A barnstar for you!

	The Barnstar of Diligence
	For diligent investigation into the history of the Theban alphabet, culminating in your discovery (at the Library of Congress!) of a black-and-red chart of that alphabet from the earliest known source, the 1518 Polygraphia, and following its changes through subsequent published versions. This helps the first-mentioned article tremendously. – _•Raven ^.talk 11:42, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

RFC on the underlying definition of alphabet at WP:NCWS

There is now an RFC on the WP:NCWS alphabet definition topic. – _•Raven ^.talk 05:04, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Revision notice: I had that link go to WP; it is now corrected to WT. – _•Raven ^.talk 17:25, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The things I come across while working for you...

There's an old coarse joke about Star Trek, that the starship Enterprise wipes out Klingons around... well, you've heard it. Now take a close look at this pic of the planetary symbol of Uranus: How did those ancient symbol-makers know? – .Raven ^.talk 07:31, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@.Raven: LOL, that's amazing. It's also interesting that that graphic is currently in use on exactly 2 articles: Planets in astrology and Kazakhstan Tennis Federation! Nosferattus (talk) 16:22, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BTW...

kwami first *templated* me on my talkpage – for editing an article with an ongoing page move request (is that even a rule?) – then (when I responded on his talkpage) reported me to WP:ANI for "harassment", quotha. I finish responding to that, check my watchlist, and oh joy, he's reverted my edit on N'Ko script, thus deleting an RS citation, with the comment: "rv: this is an ongoing discussion -- wait for the result". But the "ongoing discussion" was the page move request, which doesn't affect the article text at all. – .Raven ^.talk 18:00, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
