Q4

[edit]

I wonder what we're trying to get at with question 4: "Why has this article been tagged?" Does this mean tagged for deletion? J-ſtan!TalkContribs 02:14, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, tagged with a maintenance tag. I often get asked that by newbies, so I wanted to add a brief explanation of what they signify and how we use them (eg, many newbies think that someone else has to review and remove the tag once the issue has been fixed).

I have created some content for the copyright advice, but I would appreciate some input from you all about its accuracy, given the importance of getting it right. I think I've got it fairly correct, but I'm not all that experienced with image license stuff. Adrian M. H. 15:34, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Clarify wording for 'I need help improving an article. What help is available?'

[edit]

The section 'I need help improving an article. What help is available?' has this sentence: "GA reviews are carried out by one editor per article, while FA reviews employ consensus". What do you think about changing the word 'editor' to 'reviewer'?

It seems like we are simply referring to a general Wikipedia editor. But in the context of GA reviews, the person is specifically acting as a reviewer. Using 'reviewer' seems more clear. We also say this in the previous sentence: "if the editor believes the article is of high quality". There we use 'editor' to refer to the person asking for feedback. It seems it would be more clear to avoid using 'editor' to also refer to the GA reviewer in the very next sentence. Thoughts? --Culix (talk) 07:12, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
