01:37, 15 July 2024 (UTC)Logger67. Hey there! Hope you are well. I published my first biography, but it made me submit it for review? Does it always do that as I looked it up and it said no? I also thought there was an option to request edits from others on it, but because I did it in "my first article wizard" I am not sure if it is a different process? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Henry_Beach_Needham is the page. Thank you. 01:37, 15 July 2024 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Logger67 (talkcontribs)

Elements at B

edit

I know that you were working on a few elements trying to get them to GA-level recently. I have similar goals but don't want to take over anything you were working on. Noted overlap was on Cerium. Anywhere else you want to reserve for your own projects, just let me know. I've got a lot of resources lined up for the Rare Earths and can probably improve the sourcing on neodymium since that was its main problem last time - many rare earths have issues in regards to health and safety to with relation to new literature.

I haven't worked on those elements in the past few weeks, so you can probably take over all of them. I might want to work on other elements in a few months, but probably not cerium or neodymium in the near future. Good luck on potential GANs! 141Pr -\contribs/- 14:54, 6 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
