Concrete and ice

Hi Finnfrog99, I reviewed your Ballymun Concrete News for DYK; enjoyed reading it and glad it got to DYK on that double post. Also enjoyed reading your Slipped on Ice article, but the whole thing was a head-scratcher for me. I’m from Canada and the idea that a guy slipping on ice would attract national attention is, well, sorta surprising to me! 😁 each country has its own quirks, I guess. Best wishes. ❄️❄️❄️ Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 01:44, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

Hello!

I spotted your contributions to Wikipedia:The UK and Ireland 20,000 Challenge and wanted to say hi! I'm also on a bit of a mission to improve the coverage of Dublin's northside. Recently I created some street articles trying to rebalance the bias towards coverage of southside streets. I'm interested in working on getting articles to good as well, inspired in part by looking at the old Irish Monopoly board and the work of User:Ritchie333, which might pique your interest too. Anyway - keep up the great work! Smirkybec (talk) 21:05, 11 July 2026 (UTC)

Hello! This is a nice surprise, I honestly didnt think there was anyone else who was interested in editing northside articles lol, so its nice to meet you!

If you like improving articles on streets, would you be interested in collaborating on an article about the Ballymun Road? Froglord (Finnfrog99) (talk) 22:35, 11 July 2026 (UTC)

Definitely, count me in - I'm happy to create a start article this week, and we can both try to expand as best we can? I added a section on Collins Avenue to the main R103 road (Ireland) which could include the previously named Ballymun Avenue as well. Smirkybec (talk) 20:16, 12 July 2026 (UTC)

Making a start article and then expanding from there sounds like a good idea Draft:Ballymun Road

I have gathered information on it before for a rewrite im doing for the Ballymun Flats at User:Finnfrog99/sandbox3, and think that it is notable enough for its own article

I've also been saving Ballymun related newspaper clippings at User:Finnfrog99/sandbox5, so some of those might be of use Froglord (Finnfrog99) (talk) 20:40, 12 July 2026 (UTC)

July 2026

Hi Finnfrog99, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Sohom (talk) 22:52, 18 July 2026 (UTC)

DYK for Stop The Game

On 19 July 2026, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Stop The Game, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that members of Stop The Game campaigned against a planned UEFA Nations League fixture between Ireland and Israel by throwing tennis balls onto the pitch? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Stop The Game. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (Stop The Game), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to nominate it.

Articles for Creation backlog drive

Hello Finnfrog99:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in August!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than a month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 August 2026 through 31 August 2026.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 5000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:37, 19 July 2026 (UTC)

• If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page.

Re: MissingNo.

There was a previous discussion here regarding using the 'free' image or not, with the general consensus being that the screenshot provides the most context. There's little reason to include the stand-alone sprite as is, and it's questionable if it's really a simple enough shape to not be 'copyrighted' given how hawkish Nintendo is about their media. Kung Fu Man (talk) 21:35, 19 July 2026 (UTC)

Thats not why its free, nintendo didnt design or create it, it was created as a result of a computer bug and thats why its public domain Froglord (Finnfrog99) (talk) 21:37, 19 July 2026 (UTC)

It's still using graphics from the game itself to create, well, itself though. The images of MissingNo. like that are in turn based off its 'design' in-game.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 22:43, 19 July 2026 (UTC)
