Thanks. Also, I was wondering about your source for these articles. Did you manually read the names off the map or pull data from an uncited database? You started an article about Verde River (Bolivia), which is now a redirect: Verde River (Bolivia) to Verde River (Mato Grasso). There is an open proposal to merge this with Rio Verde (Guaporé River tributary). I am unable to easily determine whether these are the same river, or two different rivers. It's possible the river in Mato Grosso crossed the Rondônia border and the Bolivia border – why the "(Bolivia)" disambiguation in the title of the original version? wbm1058 (talk) 00:04, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-01-05T00:04:00.000Z","author":"Wbm1058","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Wbm1058-2021-01-05T00:04:00.000Z-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2021-01-04T21:00:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I saw that. That was fast! Impressed with your proficiency with AWB. I figured it out. Your source was List of rivers of Mato Grosso, which was created by Kmusser, another editor from the DC area, at 14:56, 13 July 2009‎ . Perhaps you know him. You created the stub based on the red link in his list just over a day later, at 02:34, 15 July 2009. Earlier, List of rivers of Rondônia was created at 18:36, 22 June 2009‎ and Rio Verde (Guaporé River tributary) was created by you off that red link at 04:33, 6 July 2009‎.

@Wbm1058: My proficiency with AWB is born of long practice - thanks very much. :-) I don't know Kmusser (though thinking it over a bit, I believe we have had the odd discussion now and again), and honestly don't recall realizing that the redlink list was as new as it was when I created the articles; I was simply on a spree stubbing rivers from countries all over the world.

Also to answer the question, there are two separate rivers named Rio Verde that are tributaries of the Guaporé, at least according to those Ministry maps, one is entirely in Rondônia (currently at Rio Verde (Guaporé River tributary)) and the second and probably more significant one forms part of the Bolivia - Brazil border (currently at Verde River (Mato Grasso)) and does not enter Rondônia, so no those shouldn't be merged, but there might need to be some renaming to clarify.Kmusser (talk) 04:03, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-01-06T04:03:00.000Z","author":"Kmusser","type":"comment","level":8,"id":"c-Kmusser-2021-01-06T04:03:00.000Z-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2021-01-05T15:28:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hello Ser Amantio di Nicolao. You recently added, with Cat-a-lot, the category "Women state legislators in Georgia (U.S. state)" to the pages Amanda Gourgue and Deanna Jurius. These are clearly not applicable categories, as these state legislators are in New Hampshire, and nothing on their pages mentions Georgia. I have no understanding how these Wikipedia gadgets work, but I just wanted to warn you that it seems that this one is doing some clearly incorrect things. – RoundSquare (talk) 23:34, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-01-12T23:34:00.000Z","author":"RoundSquare","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-RoundSquare-2021-01-12T23:34:00.000Z-Potential_problem_involving_gadget","replies":["c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2021-01-13T00:23:00.000Z-RoundSquare-2021-01-12T23:34:00.000Z"]}}-->

Death Breathing might not be the most auspicious title, but at least the billionth edit was made in mainspace (and not at, say, WP:3RR) and by a well-known(!) editor. Be prepared for the news media getting all over your story again. Speaking of which, could you write a paragraph or 3 for The Signpost. We'll likely put something in News and notes. If you're at a loss for what to write, pretend I asked these questions: "How does it feel making the billionth edit on enWiki using Wikipedia's current software? What meaning does this have for you, or for the project as a whole? What were you thinking when you started editing "Death Breathing"? How soon after making the edit did you find out it was the billionth? How are you going to celebrate? Is there anybody you'd like to thank? How does this milestone compare to (any of your previous milestones)?

Thank you for sharing.

Yeah, it's been running at about 200,000 edits a day for a while now, though I think there was a small uptick earlier this week as the milestone drew near.

Dear Ser Amantio di Nicolao,

Would you be able to advise on the following situation? I would like to know if there are any ground rules for ANI cases, the way they are handled. I've just been blocked over a content issue by an editor who is not knowledgeable about the subject and has misunderstood a Talk page discussion. And subsequently they ignored my explanation. This reflects the whole procedure. Everybody here is very judgmental but not interested in checking the facts of the accusations, nor the counter evidence which has been completely ignored. I'll spare you the details for now because the background of the case is a dispute over fringe theories with a couple of believers, but it seems that rational thinking doesn't enter the equasion at any level. Nor do Wikipedia policies and guidelines for that matter. Are there no rules at all? Thank you.Saflieni (talk) 03:53, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-01-16T03:53:00.000Z","author":"Saflieni","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Saflieni-2021-01-16T03:53:00.000Z-ANI_procedure","replies":["c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2021-01-16T06:52:00.000Z-Saflieni-2021-01-16T03:53:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Saflieni: I'm not sure what you want of me, exactly? ANI has rules - but one of them is that sometimes it's just best to back away, instead of continuing to fight an issue.

Thanks, and I'm sure that would make sense under normal circumstances. But if regular people back away each time bullies and/or advocates make life difficult it becomes a process of natural selection favouring those attitudes and ideologies. It's already fifty shades of dishonesty in my experience. The negative impact on Wikipedia content is clearly visible, which is why I decided to stick it out in this specific case concerning fringe theories about genocide. That's a potentially dangerous issue to let slide, along with health and safety topics. Wikipedia was not created to end up as another source of misinformation on the internet, I believe.

Thank you Redrose64. It's a ban, you are right. Cleared that up. Now the rest of it: I'm banned over a content dispute, which I explain here. The block was for using the word lies in the context explained in WP:IUC under 2d, but I agreed that my choice of language was too confrontational. I didn't use such words afterwards as far as I know so I guess they had to invent something else. In both cases (again: the first one deserved, the second not) it was an admin who had previously inserted themselves as parties in the discussion who blocked/banned me, which I find a questionable use of privileges.

User:Saflieni - Either appeal the ban to WP:AN, or don't appeal the ban. I tried to caution you that editors who complain about how unfair or unfriendly Wikipedia is usually find it to be an unfriendly place. You said that I was depersonalizing you. It appears that you are making it impossible to address your conduct, because you either deflect any criticism as depersonalizing, or counterattack that you are being personally attacked. You were topic-banned for your conduct in a content dispute. Content disputes complicated by user conduct are a common problem in Wikipedia, and sometimes can be dealt with by content resolution, and sometimes require a conduct remedy. You made it impossible to deal with the content, because of your conduct. (In my opinion, you got off easy. You were not blocked.) Either appeal the ban to WP:AN, or don't appeal the ban, and stop discussing it.

Who's fighting? I've respectfully asked you a sincere question and have explained why. You were listed as an experienced editor available for advice. But here's one of the problems I'm facing. A few editors hound me all over Wikipedia to leave false accusations and the most horrible insults to paint me into a corner. Yet they never respond to my invitations to have a normal dialogue.[3] It's the trolling behaviour you find everywhere where people interact from behind a computerscreen. They don't realize that the person on the other side is a flesh and blood human being. Robert McClenon's information is not true btw.

@Saflieni: I'm not accusing you of fighting with me. But this issue has been raised, and dealt with, at ANI...yet you're asking for more assistance from other editors after its resolution. Hence my advice. It's been dealt with at ANI. Leave it be.

If you want to overcome the topic block, look at Wikipedia:Banning policy. In the meantime I would recommend lying low and doing the best, most non-controversial editing you can in other subject areas. After at least six months - preferably a few more - you can appeal for the block to be revised. But don't continue pushing the issue now - it will only aggravate matters further. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 17:31, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-01-16T17:31:00.000Z","author":"Ser Amantio di Nicolao","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2021-01-16T17:31:00.000Z-Saflieni-2021-01-16T17:03:00.000Z","replies":["c-Saflieni-2021-01-16T19:29:00.000Z-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2021-01-16T17:31:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thank you, but I specifically asked about rules and regulations, not for your assistance in continuing the ANI case. The topic block isn't even my main concern either. My edits kept disappearing anyway - deleted, reverted, hashed up by the fringe theory advocates who managed to claim ownership of the page. I'm more concerned about the fifty shades I mentioned. There was no evidence, just allegations. Nobody bothered to read my defence nor check anything. In the end they massaged a minor content issue into something suggestive of ... well, still nothing worth mentioning. Yet everybody got really worked up, like a pelting mob. That can't be right. But anyway. Not your problem I guess.

No need to become unpleasant. The explanation of the editor who issued the ban shows me right (and then some): [4]. No evidence, rebuttals ignored, allegations taken at face value, and a difference of opinions about content as reason for the ban. Isn't this the opposite of what ANI was intended for? So much for "all Wikipedians are equal". For anyone with a sense of fairness: The accusing party just explained to me last night that their polarizing language was not directed at genocide scholars as I thought, but at me personally.[5] Combine that attitude with their shopping for blocks and bans at the Noticeboards where evidence is ignored and what do you get?

@Possibly: Thanks very much - glad you enjoyed. I've always enjoyed miniature painting, and did a little run of articles like that a few years ago. My own particular favorite is Clarissa Peters Russell - the original source I had for her (the catalog of the inaugural exhibition at the National Museum of Women in the Arts) says something to the effect that "not much is known about her". Thirty years later, and...well, you can see the result of additional scholarship. :-)

Thank you for looking. We are not looking to own the page, only to be able to edit and put protection if possible. I have seen that you added authority control to a few school pages that have had similar issues and maybe it helped? The page is Bulloch Academy. While we would love to have the content removed from the page altogether, we would be most grateful to have the harmful content pushed down so that this description does not show up in the sidebar when the school is searched on Google. At this point, all truthful information about the school has been removed from the page and we are blocked out of editing. We have gone through all of the suggested Wikipedia resolutions and have been met with many roadblocks. I’ll spare you of all of the heartache and phone calls that we have had from our minority students and parents who are upset and hurt by this action. Thank you for any help that you can offer.

@Donoharm2021: There's really only one way to push the content you describe down the page, and that would be to expand the article to provide a fuller picture of the entirety of the school's history and curriculum. But the information to which you refer is sourced, and should not be removed. It would be better to contextualize it.

As the article is protected, you can request edits on the talk page. That is what I would do - ask people to add sections about curriculum, athletics, etc. (making sure to provide sources as necessary).

The list lacks references for many of the writers in the 1980-present section, including Iain Banks. I have been unable to find any reliable sources that cite Iain Banks as being a writer of Weird Fiction (the genre, as opposed to fiction that is a bit weird), and that is why I ended up reverting your edit on his page and also removing him from the list on the Weird Fiction writers page.

In an odd way, I'd like to thank you for drawing my attention to it, as trying to reference the 1980-present section properly will give me a nice little project to keep me occupied on an evening. :)

Hello! I'm writing to ask for your help expanding the new article on the Napoleonic looting of art. I recently translated most of it from the Italian Wikipedia, and I'm hoping to improve it up to GA quality. One of the problems that the page has is that it is mostly written, currently, from an Italian perspective—it seems like the French Wikipedia article entry might be able to help with that, but I, alas, don't know the language. I saw your name on the French WP: WikiProject Intertranswiki page and thought I'd ask. Would you be interested/available to help?

Question: I am not sure how to handle this, and I would love your help, please, Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.}, if you are willing. I was reading the page for Journey's Arrival album here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrival_(Journey_album) and I notice that there is a full paragraph that seems to be plagiarized, but I do not know how to handle it, so I thought I would ask you. Namely, the Wikipedia page says:

(BLOCK QUOTE:) The album was first released in Japan in late 2000 but, due to Internet leakage, the band decided to delay its release in the United States. Based on feedback from fans who heard the leaked version, the band decided to record two harder rocking songs, "World Gone Wild" and "Nothin' Comes Close," which were included on the American version of the album, which now did not retain "I'm Not That Way" from the Japanese release.

but (for comparison) Journey's official homepage says:

(BLOCK QUOTE:) The album was originally first released in Japan in late 2000, but due to its leakage onto the Internet, the band decided to delay its release in the United States. Due to feedback from fans who heard the leaked version of Arrival, the band decided to record two harder rocking songs, which were included on the American version of the album. Arrival produced a minor adult contemporary hit with the ballad "All the Way", while rock fans were more satisfied with songs like "Higher Place" and the two new tracks on the American release, "World Gone Wild" and "Nothin' Comes Close".

I am not sure who made these edits on the page of Journey's album Arrival, but I thought you would probably be able to tell (more easily than I can tell) from the page edits, and I thought you might want to (please) take the appropriate action. It is blatant plagiarism, and I do not know how to report it, or even who posted this. Thank you very much for considering! I would (please) welcome your help with this.

Hi. I write to you with great respect. I have no intention of fighting or winning a fight. I just want you to answer questions about the article about Elon Musk. Why are very few users able to edit this article? Why are edits reverted to many users and a few users can edit without their edits being reversed? HAL333 Why can this user remove content without having to explain anything on the talk page? Many well-intentioned users are unable to edit this article because this user reverts most users' edits. The user can modify the article at will and other users must always use the talk page. Why does this user have privileges over the other Wikipedia users?. The user has removed a lot of content from the main article without having to use the talk page. I just want you to answer me. I think it is good that experienced people like you can answer users who have many questions. All my esteem and appreciation towards you. --JShark (talk) 03:14, 1 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-02-01T03:14:00.000Z","author":"JShark","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-JShark-2021-02-01T03:14:00.000Z-I_think_it_is_good_that_experienced_people_like_you_can_answer_users_who_have_ma","replies":["c-JShark-2021-02-01T05:16:00.000Z-JShark-2021-02-01T03:14:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hello!

On 16 February 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Dorothee Manski, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Dorothee Manski, a soprano of the Berlin Court Opera, gave 335 performances at the Metropolitan Opera after being invited to appear there as the Witch in Humperdinck's Hänsel und Gretel in 1927? You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Dorothee Manski), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (ie, 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Thank you for explaining. Would that apply to all directors from Rome or any other city in Italy, that as soon as they'd appear in a list of their city, they would be removed from the list of Italian directors? I think if one only created enough lists for all the Italian cities, the list of Italian directors would then be empty. I am sorry if I make my point badly, but this still appears strange to me.

Hello Mr. Pruitt,
I really admire your work here on Wikipedia. I would like to first of all thank you for all your millions of contributions on the wiki.
I come here to you today because I need a bit of help from a fellow editor. Since I know you have edited Wikipedia a lot, I assume you must know many things about it, including potentially in other languages (?) - your username is from a character in an Italian play, correct?
Anyways, I would need your help to seek an Italian-English editor who can help me translate the page Fabrizio Romano into Italian. I personally do not know Italian, but I have a motivation to translate it into Italian and therefore I will work to achieve this goal. If you can help me find an editor who would helpfully translate this article, it would make my week. Thank you so much, Mr. Pruitt. I thank you again.

He made a Talk page associated with the file.

A notification said, "The Wikipedia page File talk:Crest of Phi Alpha fraternity.jpg has been created on 2 March 2021 by Ser Amantio di Nicolao, see..." (just a talk page)

A tag has been placed on Category:Films directed by Alan Lindsay requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

In all my years here I've never understood why any editor would bother add a blank Philately WikiProject assessment to stamp images on the enwiki. It serves no purpose to the project overall and really provides nothing useful. The project does not specifically rate images considering there are so few on the enwiki anyway: some non-free and a few that are not PD outside the US. The place for most stamps images is on the commons and we don't rate them there. The NA quality class mainly contains templates, redirects and some images. ww2censor (talk) 17:40, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-03-07T17:40:00.000Z","author":"Ww2censor","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ww2censor-2021-03-07T17:40:00.000Z-Stamp_assessments","replies":["c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2021-03-07T18:05:00.000Z-Ww2censor-2021-03-07T17:40:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Ww2censor: This is something that, in my experience, has varied depending on the WikiProject. Personally, I tend to think that templates can be as useful for tracking images as for rating them. Different strokes, and all, I suppose - I don't know that there's a broader, overarching rule about it. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 18:05, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-03-07T18:05:00.000Z","author":"Ser Amantio di Nicolao","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2021-03-07T18:05:00.000Z-Ww2censor-2021-03-07T17:40:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi, thanks for your article on East Camp and St Athan in general. I live in this area, I must say, these houses are not 1958 prefabs, nor are they the ones used as accommodation for the 1958 games. The mostly wooden camp accommodation on the base was used, photos are available online. The lego land houses were mostly built from poured concrete main structures, with built-on cavity wall porches, utility rooms and bathrooms. Pre-fabs are pre fabricated and then assembled or even delivered whole. The deeds for my street show 1968/69 as the build for the houses. I have a downloaded image of the entrance to the competitors village from one of the news paper archives, showing the layout, quite primitive! Regards, Jezzaboy.

Eunice Pinney (1770–1849) was an American folk artist active in the towns of Windsor and Simsbury, Connecticut. According to art historian Jean Lipman, a specialist in American folk painting, Pinney and her contemporary Mary Ann Willson are considered two of the earliest American painters to work in the medium of watercolor. This painting, entitled Lolotte et Werther, depicts a scene from Goethe's popular novel The Sorrows of Young Werther, and is in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.

Even weirder, I just noticed that you made an edit right before that that removed the very category you then added back in? So I guess it was already on there probably from early in the article and didn't get removed once the year was put in.

Good morning! I see you have added the category 20th-century English male writers to the Edward Knoblock article. There are other categories there already that also label him "English". I wonder if this is right? He was undoubtedly a naturalised British citizen, but can one become English (or Welsh or Scottish for that matter)?

@Walter Görlitz: So, they should be in both categories, Category:20th-century American singers and Category:20th-century American women singers - the latter is a non-diffusing child of the former.

Good morning - Not sure if you can assist with this, but I saw you were the last person to edit the entry. I'm sorry I've only dabbled with Wikipedia and don't have the expertise to make the change or I would be happy to.

In this entry: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bustin%27_Loose_(Chuck_Brown_album) reference number 1 leads to an incorrect page on Allmusic.com. Currently it links to this page: https://www.allmusic.com/album/in-effect-mode-mw0000199948 which is incorrect and a completely irrelevant page on Allmusic.com

It should actually link to this page on Allmusic.com: https://www.allmusic.com/album/bustin-loose-mw0000117455 this is the relevant album page for the entry on Wikipedia.

I really apologize if you're not the correct person to make the change. Hopefully in the near future I can learn to make corrections to simple things such as this.

Thank you in advance and for all you do to keep the site running and accurate!

Cheers!

Hi there (and sorry this is so long!)
Checking in about the Dictionary of Women Worldwide since I know you’ve been busy and may not have seen latest, but wanted to give you a chance to weigh in if you’re still interested!
Current status: editor Antiqueight has a great Excel-based method for turning the index into a list of wiki links, but we just don’t have the volunteer power to check and remove all the blue links in 25,000 names. In 10 days of doing almost nothing else on wiki, I hardly made a dent. Meanwhile Gamaliel has a semi-automated way to put the redlinks into Wikidata, but needs the blue links removed first.
You and I had discussed the utility of finding and listing stubs among the blue links, and of course one finds some (<5%) misdirects, although often the corrected version is still a blue link, so finding a red link among the blue links is quite rare, I estimate <1% of all the names. I still think these would be valuable in an ideal world, but our present mechanisms and volunteer capacity just don’t make it possible to process them. I am thinking to ask Antiqueight only to give us red links—unless you have the interest and/or innovation for a good way to process the blue links more quickly, which it occurs to me you might!
Currently they are saved to User:Innisfree987/Dictionary_of_Women_Worldwide_blue_links, if you want to test any methods there. At the main redlist page we are just removing all the blue links without checking and unfortunately even doing that manually is very slow, which is why I’m thinking to ask Antiqueight not to give them to us at all, if that’s possible on their end.
Ok let me know if anything here is unclear (probably!) and what you’re thinking, if you’re still interested.

• Redux—Greetings! I imagine you have moved on to other projects at this point but just in case the 25,000 women still interest, we never ended up finding a way to automate the separation of red and blue links, and so kept a copy of all: they can be found A-D, E-M, and N-R, so far. Once finish doing the red links, I am going to be pretty tapped out but one certainly could make valuable use of the blue links especially if there were a way to go through them quickly. Many stubs could really use the addition of this reference to solidify their case for being in the ‘pedia! Anyway, just to let you know what’s out there. Maybe let me know if you might want to use them (and you’d be free to do so any way you wished!); I just might not keep them indefinitely if no one has plans for them. Cheers!

@Innisfree987: It's the same old story, isn't it? I have all kinds of ideas and plans coursing through my head throughout the day. I finish up work and sit down after dinner, and all I want to do is watch something mindless on YouTube, or maybe perform a few background edits that don't require a whole lot of thought.

@Possibly: So I had a look in McMahan - she's not in there, but that's not surprising given that his cutoff was a birthdate of 1900. (He planned on a second volume, I suppose for artists born after 1900, but he died before that could come to fruition.) I did some more digging online, and found a few more dribs and drabs that might be of some use: she was friends with Anne Truitt, who took a job teaching at the Madeira School on Rankine's suggestion (see this PDF); she also went by Elvine Magruder for a time (according to this); she had a piece in the collection of the Corcoran Gallery that is now, after that museum's disbursal, in the collection of the American University Museum (see this list). You'll have to Ctrl+V "Rankine" in any of those to find the reference.

Personally, between these and the Black Mountain College museum information, I think there's just enough to squeak by with an article. I have a feeling that more can be found in print archives that haven't yet been digitized.

I'd only heard of him for the Boston City Hall Annex figures.[7]

There were cast-concrete figures by Stirling Calder and Samuel Murray (Eakins's protegee) on a tall building here in Phila. They were removed in the 1950s. The Calder figures were placed in the garden of a religious library, and survive in great shape. The Murray figures were placed in a suburban cemetery, and were destroyed by vandalism.

I don't expect the irrational exuberance of the 1920s, but a modest boom followed by a recession. The Spanish Flu hit mostly children and young adults, and viruses weren't identified until after WW2. My grandfather lost a younger sister (for whom my cousin was named), and my grandmother lost a younger brother (for whom my father was named). Philadelphia was the epicenter for the 2nd (and worst) wave of the epidemic. I re-read a journal kept by a local artist. October 1918 was the worst month, with the city's streets empty during the day, save the occasional Model T with a coffin sticking out of the back.

@BoringHistoryGuy: I'm no economist, so take this with a grain of salt, but I suspect the boom is going to be quite a bit bigger than modest. I think we've seen so many people cooped up indoors for so long that there's going to be an explosion of spending, at least for the first couple of weeks, when they get back into the world - on things like restaurant visits, shopping trips for luxuries, that sort of thing. Add in the summer travel season and the fact that there are a lot of people who've been building up savings, and I think the odds for a rocket of a boom are going to be pretty decent. That will spend itself out, though, and there'll be some kind of stagnation, if not a full recession, after.
