Summer holiday
I go away tomorrow (to Mainz, Germany) and won't be editing for over a fortnight. I'm doing my best to stock up on scheduled TFAs before I go. In the unlikely event of any emergencies, the keys to the secret cabinet are here and I'm sure common sense can be applied as required. BencherliteTalk 08:42, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
Halloween:
Is it too early to think about which articles to run on Halloween?
My idea was to run Resurrectionists in the United Kingdom. It's both historical, fits the theme and is very interesting.
Does anyone have any other ideas for pages that could run?
--Harizotoh9 (talk) 20:54, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- Somewhere in the past (possibly in previous similar discussions) Witchfinder Generall has been mentioned - it's an old FA but its principal author, Hal Raglan, is still active. The Resurrectionists article was taken through FAC by Parrot of Doom. There's also Supernatural (season 1), and 4 episodes from the series, taken through FAC by Ophois. These three editors may have views (for or against) so I'm pinging them. Nothing else immediately springs to mind - but we could, y'know, not mark Halloween for a change...

- I'd support Witchfinder General - either one, really. Why wouldn't we want to mark it? (Too Eurocentric?) Tezero (talk) 02:10, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
- I'd love it if one of the Supernatural articles is on the main page. Thanks for the mention. Ωphois 04:51, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
