Tornado records infographic.

Hi. I noticed that you recently added an infographic the articles Tornado and Tornado records. This graphic, which was created in 2010, is somewhat outdated as it does not contain the records that were set in 2011 and 2013. Do you know of any more up-to-date versions that would make a suitable replacement? TornadoLGS (talk) 20:23, 13 January 2019 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't know some records on the graph are outdated. No, unfortunately I don't know of a more updated version of it. PJ Geest (talk) 08:51, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Effects of economic inequality into Economic inequality. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:15, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

New page - Polymateria

Hi PJ Geest,

My name is Sophie and I am very new to being a Wikipedia user - editing and writing articles. I am contacting you because I saw that you had made changes to the plastic pollution Wikipedia page. I was hoping I could get your help to create a new page for the company I work for, we are developing technology for biodegradable plastic solutions (not oxo-degradation) to help combat plastic pollution and fugitive plastics. As I am currently working at Polymateria, I am unable to create the company Wikipedia page and was hoping you could help me.

If you are happy to help me I can send you the text that I would like to have on the page, external sources included.

Again, as said I am very new to this side of Wikipedia so please do let me know if there is another way I should be trying to make these changes.

Thank you and hope to speak soon, Sophie SophieStromback (talk) 17:29, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

Updated map in Energy subsidy

I noticed that you added some Our World in Data maps to Energy subsidy last year. I think Our World in Data has released updated ones. I don't have the skill to edit images on Wikipedia, so I thought I'd see if you'd be interested in updating the maps: https://ourworldindata.org/fossil-fuel-subsidies Snooganssnoogans (talk) 01:12, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

Propoganda Edit

Hi PJ Geest, I recently noticed your edit on Propoganda regarding an external video link. I struggle to understand why this video should be included in the article as although it is social-sciences communication it addresses a specific question and does not appear to be relevant to the actual encyclopedic entry. On questions relating to quantum physics or most natural/proper science topics, you don't find video links at the top showing the user Brian Cox videos that attempt to communicate the principle of the idea, rather you get (expect) a clear and rigorous explanation with perhaps some links to science communicators in the bibliography section. I think the same standards should apply in this instance. Could you please justify this inclusion? PS: I apologise if this comes across as terse or lacking tact, I realise you're an experienced editor while I am a novice so if there is something I've missed or overlooked then I'd be glad to learn. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sadke4 (talk • contribs) 04:00, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

How does propaganda change our beliefs? Lecture by Etienne Augé (Erasmus University Rotterdam)

Hi Sadke4, thanks for your remarks. I added already hundreds of video's like that and almost nobody complained. Mainly in Dutch ([1]), but also in English ([2]). There are also many videos in German [3] which are used on the German wiki. Off course every video should be evaluated individually. Some videos are better suited for a certain article then others. What part of the propaganda video is not relevant to the entry, do yo think? You can also set an endtime for a video (and/or a start time). Would only showing a certain part of the video be more suitable do you think? For example, ending it at time 8:13, like is done in this example on the right and moving the video to Propaganda#Techniques. --PJ Geest (talk) 09:23, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi PJ Geest, thanks for your reply. I rewatched the lecture and now agree it is a relevant and informative inclusion on the Propoganda page. My central concern at the time was prioritisation of the video over other sources/lectures that cover similar ground. However, I found the Video in question was better presented and far more succinct than comparable sources. Again, appreciate the time you took to get back to me. Met vriendelijke groet Sadke4 (talk) 07:13, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
