Anna is taking a long wikibreak and will be back on Misplaced Pages some time later.
        I'm not on WP much these days.

Anna Akhmatova

You should check out the death date in the Nikolai Gumilyov article. It seems like the old references have been superseded by recent discoveries. Deb (talk) 19:34, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

I have amended the article. The exact day is not that big a deal in the Anna A scheme of things. Anna (talk) 19:41, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

Dorothy Sayers

I added a note to the article talk page explaining my use of the quote,. There's a new bio of her with intensive coverage of Cournos. DGG ( talk ) 03:13, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

The plans sound great but please revert your recent addition as it makes no sense as is and is full of spelling errors. Anna (talk) 13:14, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Sorry!

I realized I'm sort of a nuisance and will be dialing back my participation in Misplaced Pages. Thank you, Thanoscar21talk, contribs 02:00, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Ted Hughes: your proposed revision

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/simon-armitage-appointed-new-uk-poet-laureate. As you will see, the UK Government and HM The Queen refer to the Poet Laureate as having been appointed, not "serving as" so I shall revert your suggested edit.Sevenoaks27 (talk) 08:23, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

I say that "serving" is a better word. Many suggested laureates have turned down the post. There has to be full agreement from the poet, usually after long consideration. Anna (talk) 16:36, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
