Discussion

Can Ajmint or other active editor confirm that they remain interested in going through the GA process? Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 00:31, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Closing as failed due to lack of interested editor response. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 20:51, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reopening nomination

Allowing anything less than seven days, when an article was waiting for over eight months to find a reviewer, is too harsh; better two weeks or more. This isn't a race, and there's no harm in extra time. Barkeep49, I have reverted your close; if you're not interested in giving this nomination time, then I'll be happy to put the nomination back into the pool of articles awaiting a nominator. Eight months is a very long time for a nominator to wait, and circumstances change, or the review ultimately comes at a bad moment. Ajmint last edited a month ago; perhaps you could inquire at the various WikiProjects to see whether someone would be willing to take on the task of making edits to address your concerns during the review process.

@BlueMoonset: As indicated on you talk page I erred in closing this now. Assuming there is an editor willing to make changes I remain interested in doing the review. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 21:59, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
