Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information. For more information about the columns and categories, please consult the documentation and please get in touch on SuggestBot's talk page with any questions you might have.

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 12:39, 8 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi Pollstart! The thread you created at the Wikipedia:Teahouse, Do I always need third-party sources, has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days (usually at least two days, and sometimes four or more). You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to create a new thread.

Re:New Zealand Comment

edit

Here I manually reverted one of your edits and I used the word "ignorant". I realise that comes across rude and so I apologise. I think I appreciate what you are trying to do, which is avoid constant repetition of Abel Tasman throughout the article. He is a notable figure and should given mention. The MOS states that the lead should summarise the main body, so I have reinserted the mention of Tasman to the first section, New Zealand § Etymology, but left out the repetition in the History section. I hope you're agreeable with this. --Hazhk (talk) 19:16, 21 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

A beer for you!

edit
  Thank you for starting Bruce Boynton. I heard about him on the news and was shocked to find he didn't have an article sooner. Thank you! Missvain (talk) 03:12, 26 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Missvain: Thanks for the beer. That's exactly how I felt, too. After I heard he had died on the news and then looked him up, I couldn't believe Boynton did not have a Wiki article before. I am really thankful I had the honor to create it. Pollstart (talk) 07:24, 26 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
