I'm not expecting you to recall an edit from ten years ago in detail, but is there any reason that you removed Alex Higgins from the list in your edit to Snooker world rankings 1990/1991 in the Revision as of 16:10, 24 June 2013? As far as I can tell, from sources, he should be listed at 14th. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 13:27, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

:{{ping|BennyOnTheLoose}} I don’t know, but according to two of the sources in the article he wasn’t ranked 14th. Regards, Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 13:55, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

::*Interesting. Snooker Scene lists him at 14th at the start of the season - perhaps he got fined points later. I'll have a look. Thanks! Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 14:08, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

::*:Ah yes, I should have remembered, [https://www-newspapers-com.wikipedialibrary.idm.oclc.org/article/the-daily-telegraph-10-month-ban-for-hig/124738051/ a ban, and 25 points deducted]. This was after the initial ranking list was published. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 14:14, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello. Back in 2012 you created a template called Template:Snooker ranking title winners. As far as I can ascertain, the only place this is used is in the List of snooker players by number of ranking titles. Now this is very clever and it works really well. I have recently been going through various snooker related lists changing {{flagicon|}} to the preferred {{flagathlete|}}. I would like to make this change to the List of snooker players by number of ranking titles but noticed that the template specifies using {{flagicon|}}{{sortname||}} for the players' names. Is there a specific reason for this? If not, I will go ahead with the change. I've copied the list into my sandbox and changed the flags etc. and it all seems to work OK. Take a look at it in my sandbox. Please post your answer to this message in the WT:SNOOKER/Snooker lists forum. Thank you.  Alan  (talk) 20:37, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

:{{ping|AlH42}} I think that’s just a remnant of a [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_snooker_players_by_number_of_ranking_titles&oldid=452399582 time when the table was sortable]. Feel free to make the appropriate changes. Regards, Armbrust ^{The Homunculus}

Hey, is the FPC script still working for you? I can't make it work in my system. — The Herald (Benison) (talk) 17:39, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Armbrust, I removed my name [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Featured_pictures/People/Political&diff=prev&oldid=1217990660 Here]. I didn't do much in the restoration and I prefer not to be included. I hope that's Ok. Thanks for your contributions. Bammesk (talk) 03:13, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

:{{ping|Bammesk}} No problem. I just didn't wanna assume how significant your contribution to the restoration was. Regards, Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 16:17, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Bro, it had two nominators. Me and Ahecht. — The Herald (Benison) (talk) 13:07, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for updating some of the GT names. Haven't had much time recently, but I've been meaning to check through them—not sure if I ever asked Novem to update the bot in this regard (and possibly {{tl|Article history}} needs to be updated as well?).

Not sure if I've ever thanked you in general for all your help at FGTC, but it is noticed and much appreciated. Aza24 (talk) 19:35, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi Armbrust, about [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Featured_pictures/People/Science_and_engineering&diff=prev&oldid=1252259319 this diff], it should say "restored by", not "edited by". There was lots of restoration there, far more than just edits. I normally mark it on the file page (under author) whether it's a "restoration" or an "edit". Cheers.

I'm not sure how you want to handle this, it's a little unusual of a situation. If I get a vote, it's at 5 supports, but I'm not sure we need rush it to promotion - it's going to be a fairly quick end-of-restoration-to-promotion time whatever we do. On the other hand, it's buried at the bottom of the page, so how many people will see it, I don't know. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.8% of all FPs.} 11:49, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I wonder why this file didn't get enough support. I expected to pass here easily due to its notable status, and may be to get opposition on Commons due to the average quality. Instead it passed without any opposition on Commons, and didn't get much support here. Any idea? Yann (talk) 19:45, 10 May 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Yann}} I have no idea. Although it probably didn't help that when listing the articles in which the image appears you listed 1980 Pulitzer Prize. (The first listed article should be the article where the picture has the most EV.) Regards, Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 07:08, 11 May 2025 (UTC)

::Thanks for your answer. Isn't this the most relevant article? Which one would list first? Yann (talk) 10:18, 11 May 2025 (UTC)

:::{{ping|Yann}} Probabaly 1979 Kurdish rebellion in Iran or Execution by firing squad. Regards, Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 02:54, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
