Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. -FASTILY (TALK) 17:58, 26 June 2010 (UTC) [reply]

Port of Rijeka

Hi! Thanks for taking time to review the Port of Rijeka GA nomination.

DINA-petrokemija d.d. and DIOKI d.d. are company names (the "d.d." stands for Ltd in Croatian company names).--Tomobe03 (talk) 19:12, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is a similar article - Port of Ploče now at the GAN. Would you consider taking a look at that one as well?--Tomobe03 (talk) 12:50, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mentorship/Advice to improve my English

Drawn to you by your name, I want to ask you for assistance. I do not know if I need a full mentorship or that advice is enough. In September, I applied for autopatrol and was hammered on my use of English. As far as I know (and according to my spellchecker), I do not make (many) mistakes with that. Unfortunately, that person had another opinion and shattered my confidence. To make that clear: I am Dutch and English is only my second language. I had to learn my English again when I moved to Ireland, because no one speak British English there. Formerly working in a hotel with a lot of Indian managers and American guests probably confused my English. Therefore, I ask you advice/mentorship to help me improve my English for my personal benefit but also for the benefit of Wikipedia. An overview of the articles I have written can be found on my userpage. Night of the Big Wind talk 01:13, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reviewing the Demographics of Croatia article. Your comments are very helpful and constructive. I have already edited the article to include proposed economic indices and trimmed the lead a bit.

I also appreciate comments aimed at further improving the article, and I'll try to include some of that as soon as possible.--Tomobe03 (talk) 22:58, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to the December Wikification Drive

GAN of Alkali Metal

I think that I have addressed all the points you pointed out in the GA review, and think that it is ready for its final verdict. StringTheory11 (ei =1) 05:43, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Highgrove House, Eastcote

Thank you for reviewing Highgrove House, I'll get to work on your suggestions. As an aside, when I give reviews I give users a chance to address my concerns first, to see how things progress. I see you are taking part in the backlog drive but would you consider keeping the nomination open for a couple of days to save relisting shortly? Harrison49 (talk)

Thank you for getting back to me. You can reopen the nomination by changing the fail symbols to question marks and replacing the fail talk page template with the original 'review in progress' one. I'll work on the article today and tomorrow and hopefully it will be up to standard shortly. Harrison49 (talk) 16:45, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I've added a fair amount of new information which addresses most of your points. Would you mind taking another look? Harrison49 (talk) 15:43, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Argo Tea/GA1

Please reevaluate Talk:Argo Tea/GA1.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:54, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks...

... for the GA review for Henry DeWolf Smyth! See you around. Lagrange613 05:57, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar
Thanks again for the review of Highgrove House, Eastcote. I appreciate it was a bit cheeky of me to ask you to reopen it, although it avoided having to renominate it so soon after. Harrison49 (talk) 18:11, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

GOCE November 2011 Backlog elimination drive progress graphs

Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors November 2011 Backlog elimination drive! We would like to thank all who participated in this drive. Here is the end-of-drive report.

Participation

There were 48 editors who signed-up for this drive, of which 35 participated. Thank you to everyone who helped reduce the size of the backlog!

Progress report

During the drive, we reduced the backlog by 232 articles, or by about 6%. This is a two percent increase from our September drive, when we copy edited 4% of the backlog. We were successful in our primary goal of clearing the oldest three months—March, April, and May 2010—from the queue. Thanks to all who helped copy edit these difficult articles. Thus far we have reduced the copy edit backlog by 5086 articles, or by about 61%. End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here.

Coordinator election

The term of our second tranche of coordinators has run out, and we will be accepting nominations from December 5, 00:01 UTC to December 15, 23:59 UTC. If you or any other member of the Guild of Copy Editors wishes to be a coordinator, add your name to this page along with a statement describing why you believe you should be a coordinator for the Guild. You must be able to commit to a six month term. Thanks!

Once again, thank you for participating in the Guild's November 2011 Backlog elimination drive! Our next drive will be in January, and we hope to see you there!

Your drive coordinators – Diannaa, Chaosdruid, The Utahraptor, Slon02 and SMasters

Gerald Fischbach Article

Hi Tea with Toast!

Thank you for taking the time to review our article. A group of Boston College students in an Introduction to Neuroscience class worked on the article together and the other authors are Kochmd, Solomojk, and Hortonan. Feel free to contact them as well with any questions you may have. We are currently in final exams, but they should get back to you within a day or so if you send them a message. The goal of the project was to expand Wikipedia neuroscience stubs in conjunction with the ongoing Society for Neuroscience initiative. Our professor presented a list of neuroscience stubs at the beginning of the semester and each group selected one article to work on over the course of the class. Our group selected Gerald Fischbach's article because we believed his article didn't represent the major contributions he has made to the field of neuroscience. Fischbach and his assistant at the Simons Foundation have been extremely helpful throughout this process providing guidance and help whenever we needed it. Overall, I think the final product exceeded even our own expectations and it was a wonderful experience being able to contribute an article to the millions of Wikipedia users worldwide. Thank you again for you time and I hope you have a great holiday!
