Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

I am aware that you have created more than 700 DYK. In my opinion, a problem arose from this one because it crossed a line from history to medicine. I recommended that the DYK for Bald's eyesalve be rejected and that the article itself be radically revised, because none of the evidence of function meets WP:MEDRS. In my opinon, an article can exist with references to the history of this medevial treatment, but any mention of science supporting functionality be deleted.

Given that you helped with the work at Wikipedia:Featured article review/Battle of Blenheim/archive1, would you be willing to take a look at Schellenberg, which was in the same war? It's another very old FA promotion that the URFA group isn't quite sure what to do with, and is looking for someone who is at least familiar with the topic matter to judge what kind of shape it is in.

Hello! I am currently new to Wikipedia editing, having taken up a university course where we are encouraged to work on a stub article and turn it into a B- or C-class article. I have noticed that you are relatively active on here, and are an admin for the Biography WikiProject with a particular focus on civil engineers. I have chosen Peter Nicol Russell who was a Scottish/Australian engineer and philanthropist in the 1800's. If you had the chance, would you mind assisting me with providing some advice on the article via its talk page? I'm also looking for someone to review and grade the article per the Biography WikiProject guidelines if you (/you know anyone who) can help Many thanks!! Chasseur99 (talk) 07:37, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

Have some difficulties re Hannyngton. His command seems to have changed through the East African campaign, from variously numbered East African brigades to the eponymous Hanforce. Also, some sources describe him as a temporary brig-gen, but this medal card apparently has him as a major-gen. Thoughts? Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 16:43, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
I think you had an extraneous "|" in the link, this link works (for me at least). Very strange, the medal card preview certainly has "Indian Army Maj Gen" written on it. There's a second medal card for him here that also says "Maj Gen (T)", presumably indicating it was a temporary rank. Will see if I can dig anything out from elsewhere - Dumelow (talk) 17:40, 16 December 2022 (UTC)

Marescaux is an interesting story, is it not? Query here. Per this he died of cerebral hemorrhage brought about by the constant bombing of Dunkirk while he was Colonel COmmandant, Dunkirk. Does this count as illness or wounds received? Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 15:22, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
