Nominator posts to user talk pages
[edit]Nominator has posted to ten (10) user talk pages. Not sure if any of them were previously involved with prior review of this article, but wanted to note this here. I notify prior users only if they were involved in prior stages of review of an article, like peer review. Not sure if that's what's going on here, or not? — Cirt (talk) 01:21, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- I notified users that actively contribute to basketball-related articles and users that have previously reviewed FA candidates. I was not sure if this was against the rules, but let me know if it is. TempleM (talk) 11:15, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- "users that have previously reviewed FA candidates" that is a much too wide scope. Presumably you could be notifying hundreds of people with that definition of scope. Best to keep it to: Prior WP:GA reviewer, prior peer review contributors, and prior WP:GOCE copy editors. — Cirt (talk) 16:47, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Cirt: Sorry if I was too vague, but what I meant was that those users were involved in a previous FA that I nominated about a basketball player a few months ago. TempleM (talk) 20:22, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
- Was I involved in that? What was the link to the previous FA, please? — Cirt (talk) 20:23, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Cirt: You can find the nomination here. You said that you stumbled upon it, but you did provide some good feedback, so I thought you might be interested in this one. Most of the users I contacted for this nomination participated in that one, but I also posted on the talk pages of some users active in basketball-related articles.

- @TempleM: My apologies, I had not recalled that prior history. Perhaps in the future I just suggestion you mention to those people why the connection to the review process going forwards. Good luck, — Cirt (talk) 23:05, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
