Hey BOZ I created a new category page but misspelled the title ("Category:Korean Warboard wargames" should be "Category:Korean War board wargames"), and there is no Move button under Tools to correct this. Suggestions? Guinness323 (talk) 21:40, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there Guinness323! :) I'm sure it's easy enough to get the page mover right, which is for categories and images and such, but I haven't gotten around to asking for this or I would help you. To fix Category:Korean Warboard wargames you can find the instructions at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy. BOZ (talk) 23:41, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Happy First Edit Day, BOZ, from the Wikipedia Birthday Committee! Have a great day! DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 05:12, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks again! :) BOZ (talk) 06:14, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, BOZ. I'd like to wish you a wonderful First Edit Day on behalf of the Wikipedia Birthday Committee! Have a great day! JustSomeoneNo (talk) 16:50, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

And thank you once again. :) I feel so celebrated! BOZ (talk) 00:23, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Boz, for years now I've been meaning to drop you a note saying thanks for adding the Next Generation reviews to all the video game articles. It has saved me quite a bit of work, and of course made Wikipedia more informative. I hope you aren't bothered that I've been occasionally replacing the quotes you used. In 99% of cases I had no problem with the quote; it's just that I like article prose to flow from one statement to the next within each section, and sometimes there's no obvious way to fit a specific quote into that. I always feel presumptuous when I fiddle with another editor's good work, so I thought I'd better say something about that.

Hope you've been enjoying your editing this year so far. It's always good to see you around. Martin IIIa (talk) 23:16, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, that's cool by me, I probably overquote anyway so go ahead and do whatever is best for the article. :) Thank you for your kind words, I truly do appreciate it! My next big project was CGW, and I got through about a decade of that before other projects demanded more of my time. :) Eventually though!

Hi BOZ! :) Was wondering can you help add a gameplay section to Third World (video game)? In exchange I can look for sources for any game you want. Timur9008 (talk) 18:35, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I may not have the time for that, but I will see what I can do maybe tomorrow! BOZ (talk) 19:13, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! :)

Not sure if possible but can you expand the gameplay section for Mario Teaches Typing? Trying to get it that to FA. Timur9008 (talk) 19:22, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I will help with sources again :) Timur9008 (talk) 15:14, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, I am not sure if it is possible to expand that further. What sort of information on gameplay is missing from it now? BOZ (talk) 18:02, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Can you do Gridiron! then? Timur9008 (talk) 05:57, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That seems reasonable, and it's actually one of mine. ;) I'll try to find some time to add a little there. BOZ (talk) 07:01, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I mentioned this in 2 of the AfDs, but the more I think about it, perhaps to start a with a single page might be a good idea List of vehicles in comics, as a companion to List of fictional vehicles/List of fictional cars/List_of_fictional_ships#Comics/List of fictional spacecraft.

I think there are more than we might think, scattered out there in articles. The Avengers Quinjet, the Arrowcar, and so on. What do you think? - jc37 23:19, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I could see that as a possibility. BOZ (talk) 01:14, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
