Interesting life and work, on fine sources, subscription, Danish and French sources accepted AGF. I prefer the ALT hook, to not expect too much plant physiology. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:03, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The nominator is currently indefinitely blocked, but their talk page makes it seem that they will likely be unblocked soon. SL93 (talk) 01:37, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like they're being conditionally unblocked tomorrow? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 05:54, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

theleekycauldron I said likely unblocked because the blocking admin added "(to give time to other CUs to give their tuppence, if they so choose)" The nominator has now been unblocked. SL93 (talk) 20:35, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's my bad, SL93, I thought you said he wasn't gonna be unblocked soon. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 23:46, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
