I don't see how 'considered grey haired' can be described as encyclopedic. Valetude (talk) 00:57, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Valetude! It's interesting that this has just come up - it relates to a subject I was discussing yesterday elsewhere (diff). I think Wikipedia writing can be dull, so small details like the one in question help to capture and hold the reader's attention. Simply put, I don't see what's unencyclopedic about it. It's reliably sourced and keeps the article flowing. Ganesha811 (talk) 01:27, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
- Either he was grey-haired or he wasn't. It's not a value judgment. Valetude (talk) 08:41, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
- Valetude, I agree, it was weirdly phrased. I've rephrased it in the article so it reads "grey-haired and considered handsome". That way the value judgement only applies to the subjective quality of "handsome." Ganesha811 (talk) 12:24, 27 June 2021 (UTC)

Gabby Thomas
Hello,
Thanks for updating the information for Gabby Thomas-very useful for those of us who just saw her and were curious about her background.
Can you also add her ethnicity? According to one of her Instagram posts, according to Ancestry she is Cameroonian, Nigerian and German. She is Jamaican from her dad’s side.
Here is her username: gabbythomas And the related post is “10 things about me” (Edited 18 weeks ago) Clearfemme (talk) 14:34, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
- Clearfemme, hello! Welcome to Wikipedia! That should be ok to add according to our policy WP:BLPSELFPUB. I'll add a sentence to the article. Ganesha811 (talk) 14:52, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for your help

Question re GAN for Biden subarticle
Hi. I'm intending to put Early life and career of Joe Biden up for GAN. Would you be interested in being a co-nominator? Also, is there anything more you are currently intending to add to the article? I think I have added/clarified the items that I had in mind. Fwiw I am the editor who originally brought the Joe Biden main article to GA status in 2008. Subsequently I retired from working on active contentious political articles, so I did not attempt to save the main article's GA status last year when it was removed. But I would like to at least see this subarticle get back part of that GA. Let me know. Thanks ... Wasted Time R (talk) 22:12, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- Wasted Time R, sure, I’d be happy to. I may be fairly busy, but I’ll help out with improvements and fixes where I can. There are no major expansions I have planned. I think we should be able to get this one to GA, but I agree that the main Joe Biden article is probably impossible to pass - it would never reach the stability required, regardless of quality. Thanks for your work on the article! Ganesha811 (talk) 22:28, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks. The article is now nominated, with you listed as co-nominator. Wasted Time R (talk) 12:12, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
