- If you want to work on a film biography, then I would also recommend working on a film director's biography, such as Steven Spielberg, Stanley Kubrick, or Francis Ford Coppola. I find directors to be much more interesting characters than film actors; also, a lot of great actors have branched into film directing, like Clint Eastwood, so I would consider them. Actors just aren't as interesting to me. Gary King (talk) 18:36, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Goofy question
Hi I noticed you are doing the GA review for Robert F. Kennedy assassination - it is also at Peer Review, so do you think you would be able to make some comments there too? If not I understand, but figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:46, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- I can do a PR on it that is mostly MOS and grammar and "this sentence does not make sense" things - I will try to do that in the next several hours. I am not an expert on the subject, so my PR comments won't be much on content. I have not yet read the article, thanks Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:53, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- I just read the article and can make some suggestions. Will do so next, then feel free, thanks Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:30, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks - I put up the {{doing}} template to avoid edit conflicts on PR. I have been very busy with PR lately, but I do GA reviews on occasion - I think I have done 7 to date, mostly Geography and a few on comic books. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:35, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- The PR on RFK is done. I am not quite sure what you mean by the question on Mr. Freeze - do you want me to do a GA review on it or to help with a GA review or not sure... I think I can help in almost any case, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 02:21, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- I will be glad to look at it when it gets to peer review - thanks for clarifying and sorry to be so dense before. It may take me several days after it is listed, as I try to help out with otherwise unreviewed articles. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:14, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- I think there are twenty-two bullet points in the Other versions section - four in the first and 18 in the second part. It may be there are places where bullet lists are OK, but this seems excessive. I would try to make it regular text. For the alternate versions, perhaps similar ones could be grouped together - if there are three or four Superman Jokers, for example, I would try to combine those in one paragraph, and lump other similar ones together. Does this seem clearer? As always, feel free to ignore my advice, but I think 22 bullets would be a deal breaker at FAC Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:45, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

(unindent) The pertinent section of MOS is Wikipedia:MOS#Bulleted_and_numbered_lists. I recently learned WP:LOCE is not really functional. There are copyediting volunteers at WP:PRV who might be able to help, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:59, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- I have no idea how long a copy edit will take - LOCE is taking months. I owuld go ahead and ask now Ruhrfisch ><>°° 02:10, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Sounds like a plan - good luck and I will watch for Mr. Freeze - feel free to remind me if I forget ;-) Ruhrfisch ><>°° 02:55, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- I would go with whatever the comics use most - if they spell it out, use "Mister", if they mostly use "Mr.", I would yse that. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 20:52, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

No Joke!!!
Sorry if I caused any harm or inconvenience to you, but the link I added is a genuine link to a genuine album. Once again, I am truly sorry for any inconvenience. Tool-apc (talk) 02:03, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
No Biggie :)
It's okay, you couldn't have known what I was editing about, not many people have heard of the band or the album. Sorry tho. Tool-apc (talk) 02:08, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Re:Question
What, do you mean the edit summary of "Going back?" If so, I don't know, it just seemed like a good filler edit summary. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 03:50, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Byzantine
I think I fixed the Byzantine (band). The only problem is that I always kind of have no idea what to write to the lead section..-- LYKANTROP 12:59, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- It is ready. I think that the lenght of the lead section is adequate to the artcle now (compared with Godsmack).-- LYKANTROP 09:41, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
RE: Hey
Nothing much, just working on PPVs. What have you been doing? –LAX 01:42, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, well that's cool. Yeah, I am probably going to nominate it on Monday. I currently have five PPVs up at WP:GAN. I know, I know, that's alot. But, they should all pass with no problems. (If only people would review PW articles) ;) Anyway, why are you distancing yourself away from PW articles? –LAX 01:56, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, sure. Why not? But this time, let's work on it in a sandbox. That way, we're not "rushed" to get it done. –LAX 02:07, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- That's not what I was referring to, but yeah, we should finish it. –LAX 02:26, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Randy Orton passed for GA
Just letting you know I reviewed it (something I haven't done in a long time, but since I just got one accepted and have another in the queue I feel it's important to give something back) and all it needed was an extra cite in the intro. So i put it there and it's now a GA. Daniel Case (talk) 02:47, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Re:APA
Thanks. Just feel not that proud of its passing though..--SRX 20:46, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Thanks a ton! That's three of "my" articles getting reviewed today. –LAX 23:34, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Unfortunately not right now. Until I completely familiarize myself with the criteria, I wouldn't feel comfortable reviewing a topic I do not know about. King iMatthew 2008 01:15, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hey in your opinion, do you think that Over the Edge (1999) has improved since it failed its GAN? during its GAN and after it's GAN, and do you think that the Hart tragedy is covered well? (more than what it was before)?SRX 02:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Umm, no. (Are you serious?)--SRX 02:19, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

I know that you've decided to review my Howmet TX article for GA, so I figure I should give you a bit of a heads up. I will be leaving this Thursday for a week long vacation, meaning I wont be back until the 28th. If it is at all possible, I'd like to be able to make corrections and try and get the Howmet TX article through GA before I leave.
However, if you think it might take some time, that is certainly understandable and I do not wish to rush you. I simply just want to make you aware that there will be a week break where I cannot make improvements to the article. Thank you for choosing to review. The359 (talk) 01:57, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- I'm back from my vacation, so feel free to rip into my article. Or you can move it to someone else, since I've seen that there has been other interest. The359 (talk) 15:39, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- Are you planning on performing this review? It's been a little while, so I just wanted to remind you in case you had forgotten. Best wishes, GaryColemanFan (talk) 19:44, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- No worries, I hadn't thought much about the article since then either. No rush. The359 (talk) 20:37, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

- Like WWE SmackDown! (video game series) needs to be renamed to List of WWE SmackDown titles, and another article needs to replace the above article. The series should only tell about the series itself, and the "list" should only have the list of the titles.SRX 20:28, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Guys that was all an edit conflict. When I get into an edit conflict, I generally copy my work, go back, and paste it. I didn't realized that the edit conflict was caused by your guy's comments on the talk page. It was all completely my mistake, so if you will, please go back to the page and take credit for what you did. I did/answered those comments in the article as well, but again, the edit conflict, and I didn't realize we both did things. Please take your credit! Sorry! King iMatthew 2008 01:39, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

- Can you find third party sources (i.e Online World of Wrestling, etc.) for the tables, while I reword the history, is that cool? Do you mean, like more than one Peer Review at a time?--SRX 03:00, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- I find nothing at WP:PR about it, and I used to have more than two PR's for my PPV's, and I never got in trouble ;), so it's okay.--SRX 03:10, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

- List of WCW World Tag Team Champions?SRX 03:26, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, Im done with the lead, what you can do is, wikilink every stable/wrestlers name, under "wrestlers", per the FLC of List of WCW Hardcore Champions, then spell out and wiklink every location (i.e Raleigh, NC → Raleigh, North Carolina). Cool? Then I will start sourcing, and they you can help source afterwards. ;)SRX 16:53, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- List of WCW World Tag Team Champions?SRX 03:26, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- Change of plans, Matt already changed the locations, however, you can still wikilink the wrestlers, and now, you can add a sort template to the "reign#" and possibly the date column, because when you click the sortable button a few times, it messes up.SRX 21:06, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, it will probably violate MoS. But continue wikilinking all of them,SRX 01:50, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Pau Gasol GA Review
I've changed everything from the peer review, review away! Gamloverks (talk) 21:05, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for taking a look around! I have fixed the second-half of your prose quality section and will let you know when I have completely finished it. I believe I have handled everything under your MoS compliance section, but feel free to look again if I need to fix anything else in reference to it. Citations are a work in progress, I'll let you know when I finish that as well. I've also fixed what you have asked for Fair Representation without Bias. Overall, I have fixed and reworded some things, but I'll let you know when I finish working on the Citations and Prose Quality problems. Once again, thanks for taking a look! Gamloverks (talk) 23:24, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

You really deserve this. Woohoo 855 00:22, 27 May 2008 (UTC) |
- Great to see you're back, now that you have removed the bold, can you wikilink the names of the tag teams, and wrestlers, (all of them, even if they appear more than once). Then, did you get the part where I said about sorting the dates, by adding the sort template?--SRX--LatinoHeat 01:56, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm, I dont think you did. IDK if it's my PC, or what, but when you click the sortable button on the reign and date columns, it redirects you to the top of the page, do see that, or is it just me?SRX--LatinoHeat 02:03, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

- Ok, how about click the sortable button twice (for the reigns) and for the dates, it redirects to the top of the page for me.SRX--LatinoHeat 02:13, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- For the reigns add the Sort template for the reigns and dates, for the reigns do it like this, {{sort|03|3}}

So for reigns that are 1-9, you have to put a 0 in front of it in the second column, and then the third column is how it will appear, is that clear enough? ;)
Im not sure about the dates, but I think for the second column you write the dates in WIKI form, like 2008-05-06, and then you write how it appears, I know that may take awhile to do, but after I finish sourcing the list, I will help you out, cool?SRX--LatinoHeat 02:27, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
Oh, yeah, now I know why the list is acting up, its because of the long rows, (i.e the ones that say how the title was renamed), I reformatted it, however, it will still require the template because the numbers go over the number "9", its really easy, I don't have time, as this is my week of finals, buy I can show you here.
{{sort|01|1}} {{sort|02|2}} {{sort|03|3}} {{sort|04|4}} {{sort|05|5}} {{sort|06|6}} {{sort|07|7}} {{sort|08|8}} {{sort|09|9}} <!-- THEN STOP HERE, Because after that, 10-infinity sort themselves -->
so just add those templates from 00-09 (0-9)
before you do that though, what do you use? {Firefox or IE?)--SRX--LatinoHeat 02:23, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Me 2, so it will be easier, so lets say for {{sort|01|1}}, just press Ctrl + F, and type |1, that should find all the 1's in the first column, and then copy the template and just replace the number with the template and so on, did i say that clear enough?..lol--SRX--LatinoHeat 02:28, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Perfect for me, because I have to work on it to. When do you get out of school? Also, we will also have to add the dts template (the template that sorts out the dates), but we can get to that this weekend.

I don't want to sound like a dick, but you need to do the rest of the work, because I've done my share of the work. Things to do
- Wikilink every wrestler name and stable name (do not concern about about repetitive wikilinks, it needs to satisfy the FLC of List of WCW World Tag Team Champions
- Add the sort template to reigns
- Then we shall be done.

Meshuggah
Hi. That is me again. I just wanted to ask if you are interested in making a GA-review for Meshuggah: Wikipedia:Good article nominations#Music-- LYKANTROP 00:27, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
- I can wait if it will be for days/week(s). It is not urgent.-- LYKANTROP 07:08, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Fish market GA review
Hi! I replied at Talk:Pike Place Fish Market/GA1 and also mailed you the text of the source in question. :) rootology (T) 23:49, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Question?
- Hi!, I noticed that you placed Vengeance (2006) on WP:PW under the feed back section. This might be a dumb question but am I allowed to place Lockdown (2008) under there? I would like to get some feed back on it and I think that is the right place to put it but I'm not sure if only established users are allowed to edit the article. I've been here for a while now but I still don't know all the rules. I would like to know if I am allowed to place it there because I really hope one day I can get it to GA status.--WillC 21:20, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
- Okay. I just thought to ask you first, so I can make sure if I'm allowed to. Hey do you mind to read it and tell me how I did?--WillC 02:57, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- Okay. No problem.--WillC 23:15, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
Randy Orton
This was part of my discussion on Randy orton before it was deleted. I thought it a bit too long to repost this as a response to your reply in the discussion. ~~majinsnake~~
Randy orton did injure himself from being suplexed/dropped on his upper neck/head. Since you (whoever edited it) didn't bother to say something in this talk page, then it must be allowed. This page allowed the mentioning of john cena returning from his injury. majinsnake

Is there a source provided? Zenlax T C S 19:38, 7 May 2008 (UTC) It was like watching when StoneCold Steve Austin got a bad piledriver and him trying to stand barely. Heres the link http://www.pwheadlines.com/wrestling-news/randy_orton_injured_on_raw_new_wwe_talent_lots_more.shtml. majinsnake —Preceding comment was added at 09:11, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, but that is not a reliable source. –LAX 09:40, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
than try this site, http://www.randy-orton.com/index.php?subaction=showfull&id=1208231060&archive=&start_from=&ucat=4& http://www.wrestling-edge.com/wwenews.php?subaction=showfull&id=1208266974&archive=&start_from=&ucat=1 You will probably say that these aren't good sites either. It speaks of him holding his neck after the match and the fact that he gave his signature move to William Regal out of nowhere. It was out of nowhere since he was hurt and they were ending the match quickly. Orton was probably already set to win the match, but had to cut it short. Stating he seemed in character, more then likely whoever wrote that wasnt paying much attention. You really had to watch closely on tv to know. Scroll down to orton vs regal match on 2nd site. majinsnake 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Fernando Torres
Cheers for the review. I think I've dealt with your comments now. Mattythewhite (talk) 13:17, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
Hello, ThinkBlue. You do great work on Wikipedia, and I very much appreciate that. I'm stopping by your talk page, though, to state that your revision of Brad Pitt's Personal life section about Angelina Jolie left out child Pax. Would you mind adding back in a little bit about him? Right now, that section makes it look as though Pitt and Jolie currently only have three children or that Pax just is not as important to mention as the others. Flyer22 (talk) 15:52, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
- As I stated on my talk page, thanks for reinserting that information. I'll see you around. Flyer22 (talk) 19:00, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
Hi. I noticed you're replacing refs on HBK's article with more reliable references. I have one problem with it though. Take for instance, the below:
Old Version:
At Survivor Series, Michaels won the World Heavyweight Championship from Triple H in the first-ever Elimination Chamber match, which also involved Rob Van Dam, Kane, Chris Jericho, and Booker T. Michaels eliminated both Jericho and Triple H to win the match.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hoffco-inc.com/wwe/ppv/ppv/sur02.html|title=WWE Survivor Series 2002|accessdate=2008-03-30|publisher=Hoffco</ref>
New Version:
At Survivor Series, Michaels won the World Heavyweight Championship from Triple H in the first-ever Elimination Chamber match, which also involved Rob Van Dam, Kane, Chris Jericho, and Booker T. Michaels eliminated both Jericho and Triple H to win the match.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.wwe.com/shows/survivorseries/history/2002/results/|title=Survivor Series 2002 results|accessdate=2008-06-13|publisher=WWE}}</ref>
So I notice you've replaced the ref on most statements. However, with this statement, and I'm guessing with several others, the references you've inserted in place of less-reliable ref, the new refs doesn't contain information needed. The WWE.com ref you've inserted does not say Michaels eliminated Y2J and HHH and so on and so forth. I was tempted to tag it with {{Cn}} as the new ref does no longer back up the new statement. Please check that new references back up the statement that is already in the article. Regards, D.M.N. (talk) 19:25, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Archives
Please stop vandalising talk page archives. --Captain Infinity (talk) 23:52, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Threads are archived for a reason; you just can't go around deleting the archives for no reason. That's blatant vandalism. --Captain Infinity (talk) 00:03, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you, I see what you are saying, sorry for the confusion. However, what you say about the link being in the talk header is not the case for Kenny McCormick's talk page, where the sole link to the archive was deleted. --Captain Infinity (talk) 20:15, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, I see, and I apologize. I think part of the confusion may stem from your Edit summaries: "Removing archive". It is not immediately apparent that the link is being moved to the talk page header, it looks at first glance to just be complete removal. I will be reversing my reverts of your previous edits, and I apologize again for the accusation of vandalism. --Captain Infinity (talk) 21:37, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

I see your signature EVERYWHERE on wrestler pages. I finally clicked on one. I was surprised to see we have lots in common. It'd be great if you'd stop by my page if you ever get the chance. --WWEluvr (talk) 01:07, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Hope you don't mind
I nominated SummerSlam (2004) for GAC, but I listed you and Blue as the main contributors. However, I will not take credit for it if it passes. I nominated it because there is a backlog on our waiting list (which I find redundant that we even have one). Is it ok?--SRX--LatinoHeat 19:59, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, just making sure. Just try to keep track of the logs at WP:PW, to see how many article have been nominated if there are only a few, and it's SS04's turn, then nominate.--SRX--LatinoHeat 22:56, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Jumper
I have addressed the concerns raised on the talk page of Jumper (film). Let me know if you need further clarification on anything. Thanks for reviewing the article and for also working on improving Matt Damon, another GA I worked on. Keep up the good work and happy editing! --Nehrams2020 (talk) 03:58, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for passing the article. I would like to see Matt Damon get to FA status, but my time is currently caught up in GA sweeps, Coordinator issues with WP:FILMS, and I'm about to start another GA for my university. Once you take it to FAC, I'll be happy to help you address some issues raised if I have the time. Happy editing! --Nehrams2020 (talk) 18:45, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
I've done my best to address your one issue. Please see Talk:Sibling Rivalry (Family Guy episode)/GA1. Best wishes, Qst (talk) 00:12, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
- I thought you might also be interested in providing an unbiased review of Airport '07, another Family Guy GAC nominated by myself. Its up to you, just as you have reviewed a couple of 'my' episodes in the past, and I thought you might be interested in this. Qst (talk) 20:30, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
GAB '06
Hey, do you mind if I help you expand The Great American Bash (2006)? I was actually thinking about creating this article sometime soon, but I can see you have beat me to it. :P Anyway, if you do not want my help, it's cool with me; nothing personal. Regards, –LAX 22:54, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

I probably won't have time to get on, so I will do as much as I can tomorrow. BTW, do you want to finish what we never really started once we're done? –LAX 02:34, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

I've done my best to address your comments. Cheers, Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 18:55, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but I nominated it for GA, it has been on the waiting list for over 3 weeks, and I was told by Nikki that if I helped with the concerns raised, I could nominate all articles that have been on the waiting list for over one week. There were about 4, which included SS'04. I'm Sorry ;(, like I said above, I won't take any credit.--SRX--LatinoHeat 23:08, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Though, I have too nominations, can you take over it, since it is your work, just replace my sig with yours, if they say anything, just show them this conversation. Are you mad about it?--SRX--LatinoHeat 02:25, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Blue, I see you are mad about me nominating Survivor Series, so I want you to take over it's nomination. If you don't I am going to remove it and put it back on the waiting list.--SRX--LatinoHeat 21:42, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
It doesn't make a difference who nominated it, who gets credit, blah blah blah. This has become a really obnoxious issue. To have people complain about wrong users nominating article, or not getting credit because one doesn't think the other did enough, is plain dumb, IMHO. -- iMatthew T.C. 22:29, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Update
Yes, I kept trying to tell you and discuss it with you but you never replied, so I thought you were mad at me for nominating it, so I told you I was going to put it back on the waiting list so you can nominate it.SRX--LatinoHeat 16:48, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Noble gas at GAN
Hey, I don't know how interested you are in chemistry, but I listd Noble gas at GAN and perhaps you could take a look. Gary King (talk) 07:21, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Sweet! Thanks! The article is almost FA-level in my opinion, so I don't think there should be too many problems for a GAN review :) Gary King (talk) 19:42, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Sure – what have you got? Gary King (talk) 19:45, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Ah – I thought you had one of your own you wanted me to review. If you do, then feel free to let me know which one you'd like me to take a look at; otherwise, if you want me to grab one from the GAN backlogs, then I'd prefer to pick one myself (and I'm not really a big fan of wrestling :p). I'll look for one now. Also, there appears to be some "On Holds" that have been up for weeks. What is usually done with those, especially when they are On Hold for 3 or more weeks? Gary King (talk) 19:50, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Sure – what have you got? Gary King (talk) 19:45, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah; I will close the PR now. I opened it after the GAN was sitting there for weeks without any activity. Gary King (talk) 20:17, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Um. Crap! I was never aware of that. I guess that means a pass? What do you think? Gary King (talk) 20:22, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- That's seriously the first time I've actually seen consensus build around passing an article for GA. I feel kind of honored to have three different people pass the same article for GA :p Gary King (talk) 20:27, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- I think Discovery is a subset of History, so History should be fine. Gary King (talk) 20:35, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Sure, although I should warn you that it isn't as well done as Noble gas, which was originally intentioned to go straight to FAC in the first place. Gary King (talk) 20:38, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- I'm sure it can :p Feel free to tag a "Review" template to it; if you want, you can review it now, or perhaps give it 24 hours and it should improve a bit. Gary King (talk) 20:44, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
→ If an article was nominated on WP:GAN but has no {{GAN}} template on the talk page, then do you think I should add the template and continue with the review? Or perhaps the editor removed the template because they wish to withdraw the nomination? Or maybe they just didn't complete the procedure. Suggestion on what to do? Juno (film) is the article in question. Gary King (talk) 21:36, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

- Okay, I've replied to your review. Also, there is really no need to post on my talk page about Good Article reviews because I always watch them, especially now that they are a separate page. :) Gary King (talk) 00:22, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
I tried to help out some as it appears the nominator has been inactive for a bit, so I think the issues are addressed. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 16:28, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
2008 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship
TB - I have updated the article per your review at Talk:2008 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship/GA1. If you have any further comments or suggestions, please let me know. Thanks for the review! --Mitico (talk) 21:09, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Questions
Had some questions I wanted to ask, how would you get an article to A rank, like, for Pau Gasol, what would be needed to improve it to that standard? And how do you the GA thing on your user page? I'd like to do that for mine too ^_^ Gamloverks (talk) 02:16, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
- If you could put it on my page, I'd be much appreciated, I want to update the playoff stats before I do a request for A-Rank though, cause that can be held against the article. I've just been really busy as of late, so haven't had anytime whatsoever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gamloverks (talk • contribs) 05:43, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
GAN nominations with nominator issues
If a GAN nomination is made, and the nominator has never edited the article, or the nominator, let's say, hasn't edited in months and their only edit is the nomination, then do you typically remove the nomination or do you continue on with it? Gary King (talk) 03:21, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
GAN:Radon
I think the referencing issues you listed in the GA review have been solved. Nergaal (talk) 10:48, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
Edge and Christian
You said you own a copy of Edge's book, correct? Could you do me a favor when you have time and try to find a citation for the Southern States Tag Team Championship. The only online ref I foudn for such a title says that they didn't win them. - http://www.100megsfree4.com/wiawrestling/pages/other/sswtit.htm Thanks, Gavyn Sykes (talk) 20:17, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
- Alright then, thanks Blue. Appreciate it. :) Gavyn Sykes (talk) 16:07, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
Greenzo GA
I've completed the requests over on Talk:Greenzo/GA1. -- Jamie jca (talk) 19:50, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
I've fixed all the problems except the one regarding the third reference. Is that the only thing preventing Initiation from reaching GA status? --Mr.crabby (Talk) 01:31, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- The problem wasn't with the Tv.com reference, i replaced that with one from NBC.com a few days ago. The problem was that for the third reference, which is from Jenna Fischer's MySpace blog, is blocked by the spam filter. I've requested that it be unblocked, but so far there has been no response. --Mr.crabby (Talk) 02:35, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ref 3 has been fixed --Mr.crabby (Talk) 17:46, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
Hulk
I've done as you've requested on your GAR. Alientraveller (talk) 11:46, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Re: Cyclone Bola review
Thanks for the review. I took care of the two concerns. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:13, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
Re: Drew Barrymore
I don't know, it seems pretty short, so comprehensive might come into question. It looks pretty good though beyond that, I suppose. I've never done an actor FA, let alone seen an actor FAC, so I'm not too sure on this. Gary King (talk) 02:45, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- Those articles are significantly longer; comprehensive? Perhaps, perhaps not. But longer, for sure :) Also, regarding entertainment articles, I have set my sights on The Dark Knight (film). Everyone I know knows that that's the only film that I care about this entire year—I've seen several others, including WALL-E which I think is a masterpiece, but still not as exciting as The Dark Knight! So, hopefully I'll have time to work on The Dark Knight (film), Christian Bale, and Heath Ledger. I'm currently working on Theodore Kaczynski, which I got kind of sidetracked to after reading Joker (comics) for some reason; so when I'm done this, hopefully I can actually begin my work on those entertainment articles :) Gary King (talk) 02:58, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- Haha, just work on an actor's article where you admire their work then :) If I get to work on an actor's article, then yeah, Bale will definitely be the first. I didn't notice Ledger's article was protected, so yeah, I won't be able to work on it either. Kaczynski aka Unabomber is a bit difficult to work on, mentally speaking, but it's nevertheless interesting. It's like figuring out why crazy people turn out the way they do. Joker's is also a crazy person, and I can imagine his article is difficult because of the many backstories and such. It's harder to piece together a fictional biography than a non-fictional one :) Gary King (talk) 03:17, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- Not to mention that finding references for criminals is easier because the US government often releases them into the public domain :) Gary King (talk) 03:39, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- If I put Unabomber at WP:GAN, would you be willing to review it? Or will it be too depressing? :( Gary King (talk) 23:24, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- Okay, I was curious. I'll probably put it up in a few minutes. Gary King (talk) 23:30, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- It's up now. Gary King (talk) 23:35, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- I linked a few terms in the lead now. Overall, I am trying to keep the number of links in the article down to a minimum. Gary King (talk) 23:51, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- I feel that the article may be a bit too long. There might be some spots I could trim? Thoughts? Gary King (talk) 23:58, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- Hah, not sure, that's why I'm asking you! :p It all seems relevant to me anyways. To be honest, "Life imprisonment" seems a bit short but I can't find anything else. Gary King (talk) 00:05, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
← I think it's an important section. The first example you gave is really short, and the second one has never been caught ;) Gary King (talk) 00:14, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Those articles do interest me, actually; I already read them. Except for the first, short one you mentioned. Perhaps I will work on them someday. Zodiac is especially interesting, and I've seen the film (Zodiac (film)), too. Gary King (talk) 00:18, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Perhaps... unsolved mysteries are very intriguing. Just like DB Cooper. Gary King (talk) 00:25, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Not at the moment. I gotta limit the number of articles that I work on otherwise I spread myself too thin :) Gary King (talk) 00:37, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- GA done :) Gary King (talk) 00:40, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Break? Hardly! I will just be working on a single article at a time and bringing it to FA. I just finished Noble gas to FA so that's why I'm on Unabomber now :) Gary King (talk) 00:42, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- I will be AFK for about a week or two in early August, so I gotta work now while I'm still at the computer! Gary King (talk) 00:47, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Im done. Thanks for the review. Cheers. --Efe (talk) 10:54, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- Im also happy that you find "happiness" in reviewing my GANs. Thank you. BTW, I'll be addressing your additional concerns later. Im really busy. --Efe (talk) 05:41, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
- Done. Please check. Thank you. --Efe (talk) 08:44, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you for passing the article. --Efe (talk) 07:06, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Oh my, I'm not interested to them. Why? --Efe (talk) 01:01, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ah. Its actually fine for me to bring a music-related article to GA status as long as there are lots of online sources, or offline sources if someone can provide me. =) --Efe (talk) 08:52, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
- I'll go with "Clocks". =) --Efe (talk) 09:58, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
- Seems we are having a good start. --Efe (talk) 06:49, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- It would be helpful if we can find news or interviews about the song, especially those accounting its background, production, lyrics, music, etc. --Efe (talk) 08:34, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Problems fixed. JKBrooks85 (talk) 23:40, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the pass! JKBrooks85 (talk) 07:10, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
I'm creating a new section because the last one was getting a bit long and off topic :) Anyways, what do you think of the table at Theodore_Kaczynski#Victims? I prefer everything in prose when possible, but the table is pretty useful... also, the Injuries section might be a bit subjective, so perhaps it should be removed? Gary King (talk) 01:11, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- I've got a few television episode GANs if you're up for it ;) Gary King (talk) 18:07, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ah yes doing that now. Gary King (talk) 19:32, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
My reference in the Operations section my reference comes from the Operation Slipper page. See here. I will try to find a citable reference. -- Cheers mate! CYCLONICWHIRLWIND talk 02:00, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Give me five minutes and there will be a cite written in there. Okay? -- Cheers mate! CYCLONICWHIRLWIND talk 02:08, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- I have done as asked and added two referecnces for the previously mentioned section. -- Cheers mate! CYCLONICWHIRLWIND talk 02:17, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

From the Editors
As I'm sure you noticed above, this is the 20th edition of the WikiProject Professional wrestling newsletter! It has come a long way since the first issue, and I'm sure it will only improve from here. I'd like to thank everyone reading this for continuing to read the newsletter, biweekly. I'd like to especially thank those who have helped to get the newsletter to it's 20th edition; The Hybrid, The Chronic, TJ Spyke, Alex Roggio, LAX, ThinkBlue, Nikki311, GaryColemanFan, Gavyn Sykes, D.M.N., Naha, NiciVampireHeart, SRX, Zenlax and, RkOrton. Also, lastly I'd like to thank Misza13, for sending the newsletter out for us, though his bot. His bot has to be the most important part of the process, because without it, the newsletter would not get sent to project members. I know that's a long list, but they all deserve recognition for their hard work towards the newsletter. So again, thank you to that list of people, and thank you to all of the newsletter's biweekly readers. If you have an questions, comments, or feedback about the newsletter, remember those links below. Contributors to this Issue: |
Talk:42nd Military Police Brigade (United States)/GA1
both problems fixed. -Ed!(talk)(Hall of Fame) 21:14, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
GAs
Hello. I don't know if you did this already, but for that GA you just passed, it needs to be added to the Wikipedia:Good articles page, and the Template:GA number is supposed to be updated to reflect that it was passed. I don't know of you know about that already, but I saw that the last GA of mine you passed wasn't on that list (174th Infantry Brigade (United States)) and just thought I'd let you know. -Ed!(talk)(Hall of Fame) 21:56, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- There is a category reserved specifically for units. Find the "History" section on the GA page, it has five subsections, the "War and Military" subsection is the last one of them. The article belongs in the "Armies and Military Units" group, which is the first group you would see there. There are a lot of other military units there, they should be easy to spot. -Ed!(talk)(Hall of Fame) 22:12, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Concerns for There's No Place Like Home have been addressed. Thanks, –thedemonhog talk • edits 22:24, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
GAN Reviewer of the Month

Congratulations, I have chosen you as one of two GAN Reviewers of the Month for the month of June 2008! Dr. Cash (talk) 03:38, 8 July 2008 (UTC) |
- Well done! I find it a good thing that both were WP:PW members - the other was Nikki311 (talk · contribs). Again - well done! =D D.M.N. (talk) 18:30, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks! You too! Nikki311 18:54, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- I think so. Maybe someone from the project will want to help out. Nikki311 19:00, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- Why would I remove your comment? I wouldn't do that, would I? Anyway, what are you working on at the moment, anything in particular? D.M.N. (talk) 19:02, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- I've removed that (due to a comment in my ongoing RFA). It's for the best anyway. I'm mainly just doing cleanup work, making things consistent here and there, I haven't done much article development lately, but hope to do some next week if I get some spare time. D.M.N. (talk) 19:23, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- No, I'm in the middle of an RFA. Oh, dunno really about article development, maybe some new stuff. :) D.M.N. (talk) 21:10, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, thanks. Unfortunately most of the "Oppose" comments represents things that happened over a year ago, not recent stuff. Anyway, yeah, I'm doing something new as such, still concerns wrestling. ;) D.M.N. (talk) 21:29, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I will. ;) D.M.N. (talk) 21:43, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Hey
Hey are you busy with anything?--SRX--LatinoHeat 18:59, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
- You want to help me with a "list" outside of WP:PW?--SRX--LatinoHeat 01:58, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
- This list is already completed, but in order to go to FLC, it cant have red links. So the list is List of tallest buildings in Washington, D.C., which I expanded with Remember (talk · contribs), now I need to created the red linked articles. They can be stubs, see Capitol View (Washington, D.C.) as an example of a stub I created.--SRX--LatinoHeat 03:09, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Guitar Hero Aerosmith
I fixed the small problems with the article. As for ref 3, I think it does cover the whole section but for my answers see Mansem. King Rock (Gears of War) 23:54, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
- I have added italics to the word newsletter. King Rock (Gears of War) 00:11, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
You've certainly been busy
You've certainly been busy reviewing GANs recently! My computer stopped working for the past 24 hours so I have only been online lately when I could access another computer. I just fixed it, though, phew. Gary King (talk) 00:24, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, taking two full days off from Wikipedia did me some good. I will probably be back to full strength tomorrow. I know I edited a bit during the past two days, but I didn't do much heavy lifting (like reviews) so it was pretty nice and relaxing. Whoops, looks like I've got a few messages on my talk page already. Gotta go! :) Gary King (talk) 05:51, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- If you've got time, Devil May Cry 4 is at GAN ;) Gary King (talk) 04:23, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
- Alright thanks, that's good enough... I guess :p Gary King (talk) 17:27, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ah okay; you haven't edited in over 24 hours so I was getting worried! I managed to get 2 more GANs and working on one FAC since yesterday :) Gary King (talk) 19:44, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- Nope, the important thing is that all dates are either linked or unlinked. Gary King (talk) 20:44, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- Beep beep. Talk:Devil May Cry 4/GA1. Gary King (talk) 21:16, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- Haha, I'm glad you noticed! I <3 Batman Begins / The Dark Knight. I think it may be a bit premature, but I'd say that The Dark Knight will be my favorite film of all time! Gary King (talk) 21:38, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- Nah sorry, not interested in the game. I heard it wasn't very good. TDK is good because of its cast and story, not because just because it's Batman! :p Gary King (talk) 21:52, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- I respectfully disagree :) Like for Batman Begins, the enemy was the Scarecrow and Ra's al Ghul, two enemies that were not very popular. I've never heard of them before the film, but it was still a great movie :D Gary King (talk) 22:03, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
← I did say that they were not popular :) Anyways, yes, TDK will top BB for sure! Gary King (talk) 22:09, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- Also, since we're on the subject of Batman, I'm really disappointed that Batman Begins didn't make more than I think it should have. It made roughly US$200 million domestically compared to, say, Spider-Man's $400 million. Gary King (talk) 17:01, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the review. I have made the requested changes to the article as stated on the talk page. Cheers. Trance addict - Armin van Buuren - Oceanlab 19:20, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for passing Crater Glacier as a GA! When you have the time, do you think you could look over One Rincon Hill and make some comments about the article? I nominated the article for GA twice, but it failed both times. The first GA-reviewer left some helpful comments that I have addressed, but second reviewer just failed the article without justifying. Cheers. Trance addict - Armin van Buuren - Oceanlab 16:32, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- No, but I am going to nominate it again after some cleanup of the intro. Cheers. Trance addict - Armin van Buuren - Oceanlab 16:45, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, please. Cheers. Trance addict - Armin van Buuren - Oceanlab 17:53, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- What about the intro? I still think it needs some more work. From the first peer review, the reviewer stated that the intro needs to be a summary of the main body of the article. Cheers. Trance addict - Armin van Buuren - Oceanlab 19:02, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
Done, rewrote intro. Please come take a look. Thanks! Cheers. Trance addict - Armin van Buuren - Oceanlab 21:51, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- I have also renominated the article for GA. Cheers. Trance addict - Armin van Buuren - Oceanlab 04:29, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
