== My apologies ==
 
Hi Bryan, sorry if I left you on your own at all at FTGC for a bit. For a while I was really the only active coordinator and had to do a lot of promotions (often with 20+ articles) by hand (before the bot) which was a really tedious and frustrating process—I guess I needed some time away from the project. This being said, I'm planning to resume my involvement and want to thank you again for keeping the project going!

:Haha yes, the promotion bot is a lifesaver; now, if we only had one that could demote 20+ article topics automatically, too!

== Article nominations ==
 
Hi Bryan,
Last month, you told me that to nominate an article to Good Article (GA) standards you have to go through the GA Nomination page. However, do you have to do the same thing if for example, I wanted to change a Start class article to B class or C class etc? [[User:Roads4117|Roads4117]] ([[User talk:Roads4117|talk]]) 06:14, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
:Great question! No, there are only formal nomination and review processes for the two highest content quality levels: "Good" (the green plus-sign) and "Featured" (the bronze star). All the levels below that can be assessed by anyone at any time and really just exist for the benefit of editors trying to decide where to spend their time, which articles are most in need of improvement, and so on. You should feel free to reassess any of the lower quality levels on articles' talk pages. -[[User:Bryanrutherford0|Bryan Rutherford]] ([[User talk:Bryanrutherford0#top|talk]]) 13:55, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

== Texas Triangle preview ==
 
Apparently, the preview of the Texas Triangle page was showing a blank space. I don't know why it was doing that, and I wasn't sure how to fix it. It is most noticeable on the phone, because the infobox is showing on the top instead of the paragraph. See if you can fix it, and then get back to me ASAP. Thanks.

:::I see; I don't use that feature.

The main article will appear as TFA this Nov 26th and this topic could be included to the blurb if promoted. I could def reach out to other delegates but not sure if they are as active too.

== Topic timestamps ==
 
Hi Brian, I was just wondering if there was some way to 'timestamp' featured and good topics to stop quick de-list rot. For example, say ChrisTheDude was to immediately stop contributing to Wikipedia one day and his topic:[[Wikipedia:Featured topics/Billboard number-one country songs]], would eventually be delisted as nobody would FL the following year, it would be a huge shame to have the topic de listed as it is arguably the most impressive on the website. Could we possibly 'timestamp' the topic to be titled say: Billboard number-one country songs '''(1944–2023)''' or Billboard number-one country songs '''(20th century)'''; that way, if its no longer being updated, there is no loss and the work remains recognised. I'm asking this question because [[Wikipedia:Featured topic removal candidates/EFL Championship play-offs/archive1|EFL Championship play-offs]], [[Wikipedia:Featured topic removal candidates/EFL League One play-offs/archive1|EFL League One play-offs]] and [[Wikipedia:Featured topic removal candidates/EFL League Two play-offs/archive1|EFL League Two play-offs]] are all nominated for de-listing because nobody has started the process of improving the 2023 versions, all of which are hugely impressive and would be an absolute injustice to have all the work go unrecognised just because nobody has updated the following year, or maybe the regular contributor has left Wikipedia. If there was someway to have these topics exist through some compromise like a 'timestamp' or some other approach, I think not only could the topic system recognise and maintain a lot of impressive work, but also make people more inclined to collate topics that have rot potential, because all their effort won't just eventually rot away like it might do after they leave Wikipedia.
 
I hope this makes sense, I'm not any good at explaining stuff. It's just an idea that's probably been brought up before, I just can't stand to see topics like these disappear and I hope there'd be someway to save many of them. Kind Regards. [[User:Idiosincrático|Idiosincrático]] ([[User talk:Idiosincrático|talk]]) 12:16, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
 
:That's a very interesting idea! I think for those sorts of open-ended, annual topics something like that could definitely make sense, though I wouldn't support it for something like, say, studio albums by a particular artist or games in a particular series. Propose it at [[Wikipedia talk:Featured and good topic candidates]] or [[Wikipedia talk:Featured topics]] and see if you can build consensus for a policy change! -[[User:Bryanrutherford0|Bryan Rutherford]] ([[User talk:Bryanrutherford0#top|talk]]) 15:40, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

== Replaceable non-free use File:Pacioli summa stamp.jpg ==
[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|32px|left]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Pacioli summa stamp.jpg]]'''. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|non-free use]]. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|first non-free content criterion]]. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
 
# Go to [[:File:Pacioli summa stamp.jpg|the file description page]] and add the text {{Tlx|Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|&lt;your reason>}} '''below''' the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <code>&lt;your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On [[File talk:Pacioli summa stamp.jpg|the file's talk page]], write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
 
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license]], or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
 
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=Bryanrutherford0&namespace=6}} this link]</span>. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|non-free content policy]]. If you have any questions, please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:di-replaceable non-free use-notice --> '''[[User:Vanjagenije|<span style="color:#008B8B;">Vanjagenije</span>]] [[User talk:Vanjagenije|<span style="color: #F4A460;">(talk)</span>]]''' 00:06, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
