Good work

[edit]

@JML1148: first off, good work on your first article! I made a few minor fixes-WN:TIME is not something I ever dealt with before, but it's worth reading, apparently.

Are all the sources really used here? An excess of sources slows down the reviewer, who has to verify everything, and with the current reviewer situation, it's best to make the article as easy to review as possible. Heavy Water (talk) 00:11, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

And always remember to add categories. Heavy Water (talk) 00:34, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Heavy Water: Hello, thank you and happy new year! All of the sources are needed, as they each source something that the others don't. JML1148 (talk) 01:00, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
OK, great. Heavy Water (talk) 01:02, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Reviewing

A little late for 'breaking', but I will review it anyway. Bddpaux (talk) 22:20, 2 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

{{flag}} Warranting a {{correction}}: Ratzinger was his birth name, not his name at time of death. He retained his papal name, see [1]. Correction would say 'Benedict XVI was born Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger, and kept his papal name after resigning.' JJLiu112 (talk) 07:55, 8 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Done @JJLiu112:, please check if the correction I issued is in line with facts and expectations of this request. Cheers, --SVTCobra 13:13, 8 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Benedict resigned in 2013, not in 2015, as the article claims. JohnSon12a (talk) 01:15, 15 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

You're correct. We have an article about it, which is even linked from the Related news section of this article. Heavy Water (talk) 19:33, 15 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
