hello again after several years!
editHello, @Kj cheetham! I don't know if this rings a bell, but I'm a college professor and in 2020 ran a class in which students added new scientist biographies to wikipedia! I was a complete wiki novice and you coincidentally found our bios and helped out a ton - thank you again! I'm running the class again and our next round of pages went live yesterday. And I was so delighted to see that you found some of them again! I hope you're well, and thanks for being such a gem! Best, Christine Csoconn (talk) 20:02, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Csoconn, thank you for your message, I do remember you! I'm taking a bit of a break from Wikipedia right now to deal with some things, but I hope to get back to it before too long. Hope all goes well with your class! -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:27, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Rebecca Spindler publications
editI noticed you put an "overly detailed section" tag under Rebecca Spindler#Publications. It was overwhelming and I removed references that were not cited much and/or where she was a middle author. I could probably knock a few more off but this isn't my field and I think I left ones where her notability lies. Ditto for the books. I also added citation templates. Do you feel the tag can be removed now? Nnev66 (talk) 20:31, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Nnev66, thanks for your message and your edits. It looks much better now so I've removed the tag. -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:42, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
Additional NPP Reviews?
editHi there @Kj cheetham,
It's been a while since we chatted; I hope all is well with you. I remember asking you a while ago if you could review some articles I brought over from the Russian Wikipedia (thank you by the way for those reviews). If you are open to it, can you review more of my articles and mark them if they're satisfactory? Here are just some articles I have in NPP that need reviewing: Tenderlybae, Mary Gu, Vacío (rapper), Matrang, Smoky Mo, Thrill Pill, and TNT Music. If you are open to do more, just let me know and I'll send some more articles your way. Thanks in advance for your help!
Disclaimer: you'll see at the top of the pages that there is an expansion tag for other editors to know that not everything was/could be brought over, so don't be alarmed if the articles seem empty. Losipov (talk) 17:03, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
