Mason County District Library

Doug - Nice MCDL article - there is an item that needs to be clarified. When the library district was created in 1994 with the merger of the Ludington City Library and the County Library in Scottville - the promise was made to maintain as much as possible 2 fully functioning library - and that neither would be consider a 'branch' of the other. So while we do talk of the Ludington 'branch' or the Scottville 'branch' - they are each fully independent libraries maintaining the same open hours. The Mason County District Library is the formal name of the administration for both libraries but each library continues to be known as either the Ludington Library or the Scottville Library. --Kumatage (talk) 13:40, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

5 article DYK

No problem; thanks for your message, and I'll try to take a look soon. Actually, as for the length, you're in luck because we're generally more lenient about length with multi-article hooks...I don't know a specific number, but we sometimes let people go over 200 if there are a lot of articles (although, of course, under 200 is always nice if it's possible). I've only seen one other five-article hook before, about William Wordsworth and the Lucy poems and stuff like that; I've heard stories of a 7-article hook once sometime in the past, but that was before I was on Wikipedia. —Politizer ^talk/_contribs 14:22, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

5th

On 6 December, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Royal Page Davidson, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Btw, the trick was that the creator was not trying to make a hook with 8 new articles. He was merely writing a series of articles on Egyptian temples, and User:PFHLai and others brillantly put them into one hook. --BorgQueen (talk) 12:57, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for "5th" article. That's great having that many articles in one hook. I'll never be able to do that or even write up more than 5 articles at once. --Doug Coldwell ^talk 13:08, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

9 articles!

RE this: if there were a Holy Shit Barnstar, I would be giving it to you right now! —Politizer ^talk/_contribs 20:38, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

That new hook looks fine, and as Gatoclass said, we generally ignore the 200-character rule with multi-article hooks like that, and use more of a 250- or 300-character rule. Unfortunately, I don't think I should be the one to your nomination, because one of the users who chose to comment on it is a user that I have a history with and might just try to start a fight if I make any more comments there, so for everyone's sake and for the sake of keeping things running smoothly I'm trying to avoid that one right now; someone else will probably take a look at it before long. If it starts getting late and no one has reviewed it, then I can BOLDly jump in and do it. Best, —Politizer ^talk/_contribs 15:16, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Record

How long was your record of an 8-article hook?

It would have been nice to be able to say I held it for a year, but thanks to you, eleven months :/ Gatoclass (talk) 06:06, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Congrats

Congradulations on your 9 article DYK hook. Here's a snappy for your wallet. : ) -- Suntag ☼ 13:41, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Fantastic! —Wknight94 (talk) 14:25, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Nicely Done! Please update your stats at Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of DYKs. I can only count up to a hundred or so. :-) --PFHLai (talk) 15:43, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

My congratulations also :) Gatoclass (talk) 17:02, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Amazing! Well done. - PKM (talk) 17:38, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

• I created DYK hooks with 5 or more DYK articles to keep track of this. If you know of other hooks that had 5 or more DYK articles, please add them to "DYK hooks with 5 or more DYK articles". -- Suntag ☼ 23:02, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

A ref appears to have been deleted during editing. As you created the article maybe you are best suited to try to fix it. Mjroots (talk) 18:53, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Style manual

Please note: per Wikipedia:Manual of Style, Primary Sources with a capital S, is incorrect in a section heading; the correct form is Primary sources. I've taken care of this in several articles you wrote. I also changed some hyphens to ndashes when they're for ranges of pages or years or other numbers, and to mdashes when they're for parenthetical offsets.

Re:Accolades

Appreciate the 9 accolades for today's DYK. However, for what-ever-reason you doubled up on the credits and gave them to me twice. Very busy schedule, I would guess. I believe the 9-article hook is now a record that I broke from the previous 8-article hook done by User:Gatoclass. --Doug Coldwell ^talk 13:17, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

You mean the bot did. Are you aware it is an automated process? Please don't say I doubled them up manually. --BorgQueen (talk) 22:34, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

The 100 DYK Medal

congrats

		The 100 DYK Medal
		Merry Xmas Doug, more varied articles from the keyboard of Mr Coldwell. A library, a trademark and even a Fickle one. To cap it all a hook with numerous articles surrounding the very first automobile which I think breaks two records at least. This one is exactly the right colour. Gold. Thanks from the wiki and myself. Of the 200 is quite a nice colour too and at your rate you should have it be epiphany! Victuallers (talk) 15:21, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
