| my story today |
My flowers of resilience. - Great music (in June, I'm behind: three great RMF concerts)! - Last Saturday, a friend played for us at her birthday party, on four instruments including baryton, with family (granddaughters!) and colleagues, from Renaissance to Haydn. - My story today is very personal: the DYK appeared on Wikipedia's 15th birthday, and describes a concert I sang. I was requested to translate the bio into German for a memorial concert ... - see background, and we talked about life and death. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:12, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
On today's Main page, you can find a cantata that Bach first performed 300 years ago, and an iconic saxophonist from East Germany. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:54, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
- That's inspiring Gerda, thanks - I shall listen to it today. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 05:25, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you! - While today's DYK highlights Santiago on his day, I did my modest share with my story today, describing what I just experienced, pictured. I began the article of the woman in green. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:10, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- Today I remember Jahrhundertring (written in defiance in 2013), and I'm listening to Götterdämmerung from the Bayreuth Festival, close to the scene pictured, - the image (of a woman who can't believe what she has to see) features also on the article talk. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:58, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Please! what is the different bitween In the picture and image ?. thank you | ---S-B-R(Message Here!) 09:36, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, there's no difference, I just mean its obviously an image, because we can see it. So we don't need to label it to say it's a picture or an image. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 10:30, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

- Hi. I know nothing about the subject, and don't have any particular interest in Dadvan Yousuf - all I did was make a few cosmetic edits. Sorry I can't be of more help. I suggest you continue with the talk page process, and seek consensus for the changes you want to make. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 10:01, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) Dear IP, you'll have a better chance of being taken seriously if you use your own words and write in a human way. ChatGPT and other chatbots in business letter mode are not welcome here. We only like to talk to actual people. Bishonen | tålk 10:57, 31 July 2023 (UTC).

My story today - a first - isn't about an article by me, but one I reviewed for DYK, see here. I like all: topic, "hook", connected article (a GA on its way towards FA), image and the music "in the background". I just returned from a weekend with two weddings, so also like the spirit ;) - Pics to come, I promise one cake, the other was too large! Good music, and better even in the concert ending the second day, - Goldberg Variations theme for an encore, after Dohnányi Serenade! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:47, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Again not by me: today's story - with the triumph of music over military - is uplifting! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:22, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
Now: picture of heart-shaped cake(s) uploaded! - Today's story is about a tenor, - why his roles are not linked on the Main page remains a mystery to me. Today is also the birthday of the Bayreuth Festival. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:33, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
Today is Debussy's birthday. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:39, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
Today is Gwendolyn Killebrew's birthday, - pictured: a spider and sweet food --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:16, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
NH debate[edit]
Did you mean to remove NH’s unblock text when you moved a !vote to the right section? Asking for information only! :-) — Trey Maturin™ 08:00, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- Eek, no idea what happened there! But it was early, pre-caffeine ;-) Anyway, thanks, I've fixed it up now. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 08:04, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

Our festival's last concert was most moving and inspiring, - also the story of Walter Arlen, - today I'm proud that I survived the decision in WP:ARBINFOBOX for 10 years, standing and singing -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:28, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
Today's story is about a great pianist with an unusual career, taking off when he was 50. It's the wedding anniversary of Clara and Robert Schumann, but I was too late with our gift. Just for fun: when do you think did Mrs. and Mr. Schumann get their infoboxes, and by whom? (The answer can be found here, but please think first.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:35, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
Today I remember Raymond Arritt, who still helps me, five years after he died, per what he said in my darkest time on Wikipedia (placed in my edit-notice as a reminder), and by teh rulez. - Latest pics from a weekend in Berlin (one more day to come). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:18, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
