University College Dublin Students' Union

University College Dublin Students' Union has been nominated for deletion - it needs support (and then a re=edit which I will work on but might need help) - can you assist? đŸș Antiqueight chat 12:11, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

Thank you - good luck with the thesis - hopefully I'll manage to do some editing to improve the UCDSU page if it survives - if not I might try it from scratch. It's also not that I have a particular dog in this (I never really got involved in the SU - but it does seem odd to delete it) đŸș Antiqueight chat 14:35, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
No problem, it seems very odd to me too, especially given the links between the UCDSU and USI, and the various officers therein. I hope you can get in there quick to save it! Good luck :) Smirkybec (talk) 15:23, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

Precious anniversary

A year ago ...
 
women's soccer league
...you were recipient
no. 1151 of Precious,
a prize of QAI!

--Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:23, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

Told you we'd met!

Online meeting anyway.... good luck with that Phd and yell when you are around. ☕ Antiqueight haver 10:10, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

Ha! No way :D Ah small world! I'm involved in Wikimedia Community Ireland if you ever want to do anything IRL. Hopefully I'll be back editing more over the summer - she says confidently... Smirkybec (talk) 10:12, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
My main aim is Irish Women -followed by Irish or Women (no order of preference really)...And then anything else which catches my eye or somehow is related to Irish or Women! ☕ Antiqueight haver 13:05, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

You offered

I need the full death date for Emily Winifred Dickson. I can't find it in any of the free online sources I have access to. I thought you might! FOUND IT Ergo, never mind :-) ☕ Antiqueight haver 01:40, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

My word! That was quick :) I finally got around to sprucing up Eileen Barnes last night. First proper editing in a long time! Let me know if you need any more help Smirkybec (talk) 11:11, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
Well, technically I asked before I took another look- I knew I'd had trouble finding the date before so I asked - then I thought I'd try searching again and suddenly there it was. ☕ Antiqueight haver 14:38, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
I love when that happens :) like the information gods smile upon you! Smirkybec (talk) 17:18, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

Veronica Turleigh

I was only looking at "my" (as in created, not a claim of ownership!) James Laver page the other day, wondering whether Veronica Turleigh ought to have an article! Thanks for creating a bio for her! Mabalu (talk) 15:46, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

When I saw the email pop up there, my first thought was "Oh please don't let this be an AfD notice!" So this was a very pleasant surprise :) Ever since I read Laver's autobiography a few years ago, I have had Turleigh on my to do list, so today I finally got around to doing something about it! I hope people with better knowledge of theatre history can fill it out in time. Thanks for the thanks! Smirkybec (talk) 15:57, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

Your solution

Cooney Sisters - Think it works? ☕ Antiqueight haver 01:23, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

That looks good! Well done :) Smirkybec (talk) 13:42, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Oops or something

I seem to have done one of your to do list. (Úna Brennan) Terribly sorry! ☕ Antiqueight haver 01:08, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

Oh dear. I've done it AGAIN! May Gibney. I only realise when I check orphan status and spot your to do list as a link! ☕ Antiqueight haver 13:52, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
No need to apologise! Keep going :) It means that I might be able to add their entries from the Dictionary of Irish Biography though! Keep up the good work! Smirkybec (talk) 20:25, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
That might be excellent. There are issues with not having full dates for birth and death - or knowing what happened to them after a certain point when I can't get more online sources... ☕ Antiqueight haver 22:50, 21 March 2016 (UTC)


And again - looks like I might even get to Rose McNamara soon too...check out User:Antiqueight/Pages#Articles Created and see if you can add anything to any of these any time you like.! ☕ Antiqueight haver 22:56, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
