Vladimír Kalina (fl. 1981–)

Hello Andy! May I enquire from where you got the year(s) of floruit for Vladimír Kalina (Q113115933): entomologist, fl. 1981-
I'm thinking of adding the information to Wikispecies, but hesitate to do so without a verifiable source. Also, do you happen to know his nationality and/or affiliation? Kind regards, Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 03:51, 31 January 2024 (UTC).

The earliest publication listed in Wikispecies. I have no other info Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:17, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

New property for deletion

Hello, I wanted to inform you that I've just nominated for deletion the property:P2086 that you created. Horcrux (talk) 16:52, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

legal citation not an identifier

I noticed today that legal citation of this text (P1031) was not considered to be an identifier. It appears that it used to be an instance of Wikidata property for a multi-source identifier (Q21264328), but you removed it. Could you please explain why you felt that claim was inappropriate, and whether you intended to make this property not an identifier. Cheers, Bovlb (talk) 01:00, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

After four years, I do not recall the edit concerned. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:19, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello

We keep "brushing past each other in the corridor" (virtually speaking) in various wikidata pages/projects/discussion so thought I'd say hello, I think I've have even heard Bill Thomson mention you and your work on his radio show. Anyway, I'm Neil and just wanted to say "keep up the good work". Back ache (talk) 07:44, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

@Back ache: Thank you; and the same to you. Bill has indeed done so. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:20, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

You can't get a higher tech' compliment than that :-) Back ache (talk) 13:34, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
