Commas
I saw a reference in another review to User:Sammi Brie/Commas in sentences and it made me wonder: have you run into any AmEng/BrEng differences when suggesting these commas? I think British writing might be more lenient about omitting commas than your essay. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 19:07, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
- I think that's more about serial commas and prepositional phrases. Mostly, my concern is with when you have multiple standalone sentences (subject and verb) linked together. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 19:58, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
- See this page -- this corresponds with my intuition that it's optional, at least in British English, though I agree with it when it says that a long initial clause does start to demand the comma. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 22:32, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Mike Christie You make a good point, and I should probably mention that. I spent so much time in sixth grade diagramming sentences, and it positively stuck with me. And I see this error a lot at GAN. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 22:43, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah, I wouldn't want you to stop correcting it -- most of the time when I see this it's not because they are a determined prose-stylist with a considered position on commas, but because they're not very good writers. But perhaps add a caveat at the top of the essay saying that it applies to American English? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 22:47, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Thank you so much!
I really cannot thank you enough for your assistance in getting Rico Rodriguez to GA status. I haven't had the time lately to be as active as I once was, so what you did was extremely helpful. Again, thank you. An anonymous username, not my real name 00:36, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
The article KTNV-TV you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:KTNV-TV for comments about the article, and Talk:KTNV-TV/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK.

Updating
Dear Sammi Brie,
I know that you have been active in positively contributing to Wikipedia footballing pages – and so, I was pondering if you might help me update the Jack Grealish article to make it a good article and include past seasons. If you’re interested, please do tell me as I would very much like to see this page updated to good standards :D
Thank you,
From Scientelensia (talk) 13:26, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Scientelensia, I appreciate it, but most of my work on that side has been cleaning up short descriptions. I don't think I'm the right fit to carry out the expansion, but I'd love to provide guidance and possibly a GA review once it is done. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 19:47, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi - just a good faith comment from a sometime NAC-er to another: given the withdrawal, complete lack of opposes and early time frame, this is a speedy keep rather than a keep. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 22:24, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Goldsztajn I was trying to replace the "quick close" text from XfDCloser but it wasn't showing up when I went to edit the source. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 22:27, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
- Hi - "quick close" is only for a keep or delete close. For any other type of close (including speedy keep) one needs to use the "close" option. That then gives you the option for a speedy keep close. You can self-revert and reclose if you wish. It might seem pendantic, but there are editors who track long term results from the AfD discussions and to some extent a speedy keep precendent is somewhat of a stronger indicator of community assessment of notability. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 06:35, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi. I'd quite like to get Piri up to WP:FA - I'm probably miles off, but that's my aim. I've just read Angeline Quinto, a featured article passed less than three months ago, and I've noticed that her article whizzes through her music career, with each album getting less than a paragraph each. I go into way more detail than that on Piri's article and all her notable singles and albums have articles, so doubly don't need them. Should I trim her article accordingly?

The Mel Robbins Show and Nick Cannon (talk show)
Could you or contact someone how can help make those articles although Mel Robbins articles has the show, Nick Cannon doesn't. OWaunTon (talk) 14:28, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
- @OWaunTon: It might be better to have a redirect anchor in Nick Cannon. There really isn't a lot to say about it. At least Karamo is headed for multiple seasons. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 03:55, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
- What about The Mel Robbins Show? OWaunTon (talk) 04:20, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
- @OWaunTon Similar case. One season, probably better covered in the host's article. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 08:27, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
- One more question, could you look into iCrime with Elizabeth Vargas and Pictionary (2022 game show) (articles I created, and see if you can help add on to them. OWaunTon (talk) 10:07, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

Invitation
Hello Sammi Brie!
- The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
- We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
- Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
- Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
- If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.
Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

DYK for Store of Knowledge
On 24 July 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Store of Knowledge, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that weeks after its CEO said the chain had no plans to open or close stores, Store of Knowledge filed for bankruptcy and initiated a liquidation? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Store of Knowledge. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Store of Knowledge), 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.
