== Tintin (character) ==

Hello Mignightblueowl! Well, I learned today that I need to change the tone of this article to be more encyclopedic. Lesson learned. I may have to resubmit for FA again someday but for now perhaps this current submission can be saved--if I make that correction immediately. I see that you have started your improvements already. Earlier I had asked you for some material from Peeters, and that would be great, but adding new material is no longer a high priority, getting the prose corrected is. Thanks for any thoughts you have. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 22:22, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
:Hey [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]]; yes, I've just seen that you started the FA process (I actually started making additions before I saw it). The tone will have to change &ndash; maybe part of the issue is that you have relied quite heavily on Farr, and his use of language is thoroughly un-encyclopedic, and regularly expresses his own subjective opinions as if they were objective fact. Truth be told, I think that Farr is perhaps the worst Tintinologist to use; he's prolific in writing, but the quality of what he rights is not brilliant (in my opinion). I'm not always the best person to rely on when it comes to changing prose; I will focus on adding information (not just Peeters, but Assouline, and multiple other sources) if I may. Best, [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 22:30, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
::Yes, thank-you for that observation, and you are right. I must excise that tone of Farr's immediately.  Thompson's too. Of course, Farr's ''Tintin & Co.'' is a major source of material as that book's focus is on the characters. Please, do continue editing the article yourself as you are making the kind of improvements it needs. I am anxiously awaiting my chance to edit the article for tone when you are done. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 22:36, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
:::I'm going to sound like a right old biddy here, but I will stress "patience... patience", Phartcom. :p Articles like ''[[The Adventures of Tintin]]'' and [[Tintin (character)]] are very complex to produce to a standard where they will be acceptable for GA or FA. They take '''''a lot of time, and a lot of hard work'''''. And when I say a lot, I mean a lot. I am not going to be able to rush the Tintin character article, because the information that needs to go into it is scattered across a huge range of literature, from papers in academic journals, to biographies of Hergé, to psychoanalytical studies, to the pop-lit of Farr and Thompson. Accessing and then reading through that all takes time, and I have other Wikipedia articles that I like to add to, alongside a huge array of real world stuff to do. Producing an article like ''[[Tintin in the Land of the Soviets]]'' or ''[[Popol Out West]]'' has been (comparatively) simple, because all of the information on that subject is usually contained within a select group of pages, often next to each other, within any given book. With a subject like the character of Tintin, that simply isn't the case, and important information is scattered widely, even within a single given publication. The Tintin that appears in ''Soviets'' is a very different character to that which appears in ''Secret of the Unicorn'', and a fundamentally different one from that appearing in ''Alph-Art'' (part of the problem with Farr is that he has a tendency to ignore this temporal variation, instead constructing a normative view of Tintin); for this reason I have to read through all of Peeters, all of Assouline, or Apostolides, and of a variety of other sources in order to ensure that I have all the information required. So without wanting to sound like a hindrance or be disheartening, I really should stress that if we are going to do this the right way, then this is going to take time. Months, probably. But such is the nature of the Beast. [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 23:04, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
::::I like it when you're a right old biddy. :D  Your advice is wise and sound, Midnightblueowl. As long as the article is improved, I am for it. I am happy to see you have made more improvements to the article (thank-you!) and, even better: I see why they are an improvement.  So maybe there's hope for me, yet. :-)  I love good grammar, correct sourcing, consistency, and crisp, interesting writing.  But I see now that I have been weak at getting the right "encyclopedic tone".  That's okay, I believe my lesson is truly learned.  I will probably get better with practise.  Besides, all of us are occasionally weak at something, right?  ;-)  Please know that I will be forever appreciative of your library and your experience, and for that matter, the experience of every good person I recently met during this FAC.  I feel compelled to mention: I know you have a lot of projects here at Wikipedia going on at once.  You know I am proud of your accomplishments.  But of course you know also that if you are busy I may not wait for you or take any cue from you.  You say it may take awhile, that is fine; but let's not take the rest of our lives.  This project belongs to all of us.  Let's see if you and I and hopefully others can get a lot done on Tintin this year!  I may be busy in real life, but not as busy in other article topics as you, so I feel like I will probably be the one to eventually bring this article to FA, the other nine character articles to GA, and the main article to FA in the end.  I would be very happy to co-nominate any of those with you!  That would be the ideal!  In the meantime, feel free to edit as much Tintin (character) as you can and drop me a line about tasks or a quick status or request or anything at all.  Cheers.

:::::Hello [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]]; I wrote my last comment fairly late last night, and I may well have been a little too pessimistic. It probably won't take months. A months, perhaps.

Hi, quick questions please:
*I have added Assouline and Peeters books to the bibliography, as they were cited but not yet referenced. Now all citations point to bibliography items without error except one: The sentence mentioning Joseph Kessel cites "Farr 2012 p.34". What is that, is it an error?  Is that the source that mentions this new name Joseph Kessel?
*I see some places where your new prose may need copy editing.  Do you mind if I make the corrections myself?  (I have been respectfully avoiding editing any prose until you say you have reached a point of completeness.)
Please feel free to continue editing until you feel that you have improved what is needed, and thanks. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 05:55, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Update: Hello! I have just read the article in its current version and I must say it is looking good.  I particularly like the new "Early history" section; it has the right amount of interesting detail.  And of course, thanks again [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] for your library and your extraordinary prolificacy and the honor to work with you.  I am so glad the article's Bibliography now contains the works of Assouline, Goddin, and Peeters in addition to the Thompson, Lofficier, and websites.  A wonderful completeness is coming together for our Tintin (character).  Looking very good.  [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 16:31, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Update: Please let me know the answers to my two bulleted questions above. Thanks. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 16:10, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

:Hey there [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]], sorry I hadn't seen this before for some reason. By all means edit my prose, I was mostly just trying to get referenced information down. As for the reference to "Farr 2012, p. 34", I can't find it in the article any more, but I suspect it was probably a  mistake on my behalf and should be "Peeters". Sorry about that. I hope to look through Apostolides and a few other sources tonight. [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 17:04, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
::Thank-you; there are no citation errors now; the error had been at "his younger brother Paul, who had a round face and a quiff hairstyle"; please verify that is sourced in Peeters 2012 p=20; correct article if necessary.
::Thank-you [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]], I will copy edit soon; please feel free to continue adding referenced information to Tintin (character) until you feel you have completed doing so. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 21:08, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Since you and I seem to edit the same articles (or at least, the same topics), I would like you to comment at the [[Wikipedia:Peer review/Communist Party of China/archive1|peer review]] for the [[Communist Party of China]] article..

Anyhow, thanks. --[[User:Trust Is All You Need|TIAYN]] ([[User talk:Trust Is All You Need|talk]]) 21:49, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

==Karl Marx==

Hi.  I reverted your recent reversion of Karl Marx.  I did this for two reasons: first, the notion that "prose broken up in an odd way' is sufficient to change does not hold, and secondly, while the prose might be broken up in an 'odd way' it is still clearer and more concise than the previous version.  This is not to say that the new revision cannot, or should not be edited. Indeed it should. This is to say that simply reverting is not editing.  If you want to fix the newer version, please do so.  But going back to the older, less clear and muddled version isn't improvement.   [[User:TreebeardTheEnt|TreebeardTheEnt]] ([[User talk:TreebeardTheEnt|talk]]) 17:30, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

== RE: free use images of Jack Parsons ==

I am delighted with the progression of the article. I was reading Carter's biography the other evening and noticed in the appendix that he attributed a number of photographs featuring Parsons to JPL (which allows non-profit use of any of their material without permission). The one of Parsons standing above the prototype JATO canister would be a much preferable main image for the article than the current copyrighted one. Frustratingly, I cannot find this image in any of NASA/JPL's websites or archives, though there are reproductions of it on other websites. Perhaps I could get a note of permission from someone at NASA/JPL if I sent them a polite enough email? That said, the famous "Rocket Boys" image from 1936 is available: [http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/multimedia/display.cfm?IM_ID=6383] which I will upload to the Commons when I have the time. (Or you can!) [[User:JJARichardson|JJARichardson]] ([[User talk:JJARichardson|talk]]) 22:25, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
:Hello there [[User:JJARichardson|JJARichardson]]; you caught me just as I was about to sign off. Thank you so much for helping out over at the Jack Parsons article. I was thinking that maybe after it gains its GA status, we could put it through to FAC as a joint nomination ? I must admit to not being particularly well versed in all the issues surrounding the copyright statuses of images, but if you're confident that JPL images are indeed free to use, then I think that that would be an excellent idea. The trouble with sending an email to JPL is that it would be difficult to prove that you had genuine permission, and some Wikipedia editors might call you up on it at a later date. Is the image that you would like to use actually in the Carter biography; and there, does it explicitly say that the copyright is from JPL ? If that is the case then we could probably go ahead and upload it from a different source no problem. [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 22:42, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

I would be very happy to nominate the article for featuring with you if the GA nomination is successful. There are, however, some more details I feel need adding. I particularly refer to detail on Parsons' "Oath of the Antichrist" in which he identifies himself as the embodiment of the the entity "Belarion", and the prophecy that Thelema would overtake American society if he lived seven years after it. (Sorry for the delayed response, I've been busy with academic work). [[User:JJARichardson|JJARichardson]] ([[User talk:JJARichardson|talk]]) 18:42, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

:Update: the "Rocket Boys" photo was already on the Commons, and automatic metadata shows that the JATO photo of Parsons is free use. Hurrah! I have also added the details on his "Oath of the Antichrist", which you are welcome to improve the wording of if needed.

Hello [[User:Midnightblueowl]]. I assume you will have noticed my further expansions of Parsons' article, and hope you approve of them. I have also expanded the article's intro slightly; my rationale for this is to follow the example of [[L.

== The quality of your reviewing ==

This: [[Talk:Libertarianism/GA1]] is not an acceptable form of review.  You [[Instructions#Failing|should be indicating]] at least which criteria are obvious at the largest level.  For instance, 5 & 1.  [[User:Fifelfoo|Fifelfoo]] ([[User talk:Fifelfoo|talk]]) 23:02, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
:That's probably a fair criticism of my review, [[User:Fifelfoo|Fifelfoo]], and in hindsight perhaps I should have expanded on my reasoning there. As you can see from [[User:Midnightblueowl/GAR and peer reviews|my other GAR and Peer Reviews]], I am usually a lot more thorough. The reason why I offered such a quick review was that it seemed like a clear open-and-shut case. Not only was the GA nomination placed in the wrong category, but the nominator had ceased to be a Wikipedia editor shortly after nominating the page. Even a cursory scroll through the article shows that it fails to fit GAC on almost every point. But, once again, I do think that you are right, and I should have explained myself better on this particular issue. I applaud your diligence! Kind regards, [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 23:08, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
::No worries at all!  Even for the worst article if often helps to direct editors to improve one thing in particular.  Given my background I always prefer verifiability and lack of OR as a foundational criticism of an article.  Remember, you're not just reviewing for the editor who nominated and ran, but for a community of editors who now might have a new aspiration to improve to GA status.  I agree, though, that with an article with significant and thorough-going problems it may be easy to note that, and then suggest, "While there are many problems, this article would be most improved by focusing on Writing Quality."  I read your review of Wicca, which was a decline, and I wouldn't expect you to even put that level of work into an article like Libertarianism.  Many thanks for your work supporting Good Articles!

== Please Avoid Wholesale Edits ==

Regarding [[Germanic neopaganism]], your help is welcome, but must you make wholesale changes unilaterally?  If you examine the talk page, for example, we discussed the "heathen" pagan issue at length, so why did you insert the "heathen" word dozens of times in the article?  Many British people use "heathen" for the movement, but in American English the word is used as an insult for the "non-religious" or profane.

Also, using Dr. Harvey's work repeatedly is not good style.  Diversify!

--[[User:ThorLives|ThorLives]] ([[User talk:ThorLives|talk]]) 20:21, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
:Thanks for your message, [[User:ThorLives|ThorLives]]. Regarding the issue of "Heathen", I was in the wrong, and I've begun to correct my mistake on the issue (so, sorry about that one!). Regarding the use of Graham Harvey (who is, to be fair, a major academic in the field of religious studies, being current President of the [[British Association for the Study of Religion]]), I was simply adding information from his work prior to moving on to adding information from other academics (i.e. Jenny Blain, Michael Strmiska, Egil Asprem etc). So I apologise if I gave the impression that I was only intending on using Harvey, because my real intention is to go through and fill this article with academically-referenced material from the widest possible range of scholars on this issue. Your input, however, is much appreciated. Best, [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 20:26, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

I see your point about Harvey, but to my knowledge he has only one published chapter on Germanic Religions.  I met him some years ago, and I had the distinct impression that has main focus was "nature religions."

Thanks for being agreeable on the heathen point.  With that generous concession on your part, I think we can work together to strengthen the article.

--[[User:ThorLives|ThorLives]] ([[User talk:ThorLives|talk]]) 23:27, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
:I agree that Dr. Harvey's emphasis is certainly on Nature Spirituality, [[User:ThorLives|ThorLives]]; he made that abundantly clear in a [http://ethandoylewhite.blogspot.co.uk/2014/02/an-interview-with-dr-graham-harvey.html recent interview]. But, as an academic source, I still think that we should use his work as a reference in this article, so long as we accompany that with other academic sources, and of course, some of the better practitioner volumes.

==Germanic Heathenism==
Hello Midnightblueowl! You have done a great work in reconstructing the article! Just a few advices for further improvement:

# As I see, your latest revision has been already modified, leaving an inconsistent terminology throughout the article: "Germanic neopagan" or "Heathen". As I have exhaustively written in the talk page, "Heathen"(-ism/-ry) is the best choice, since it's used both in the academia and by practitioners (both European and American), while "Germanic neopaganism" isn't used.
# The lede should be made clearer in accordance to the point above: at the moment it shows an unorganised list of terms, of which the only comprehensive one is "Heathenism", the other ones being localised varieties. I think [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Germanic_neopaganism&oldid=524845851 this] or [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Germanic_neopaganism&oldid=557966618 this] versions were clearer.
# I think Theodism should be mentioned in the "denominations" chapter. It's not covered in academic material but it has been mentioned by various "important media" due to the political activity of [[Dan Halloran]].
# The "in the media" chapter should be moved to the external links, or removed.

== RE: Jack Parsons ==

Greetings [[User:Midnightblueowl]]. I hope you approve of the work I have done to Parsons' article thus far. I would say that I have addressed most of the issues cited in the FA review. However, [[User:Victoriaearle]]'s concern that more sources should be referenced needs to be dealt with. I have incorporated some of those she kindly provided, but will admit that my skills are not the best in terms of formatting book citations for automatic referencing, as in the referencing structure for the whole of the article you built up. I wonder, when you have the time, if you could look into incorporating the additional book/article citations Victoria provides in the appropriate way? Regards.

Hi Midnight, just letting you know there seems to be some sort of problem with the FAC page, that means that some comments do not appear when one opens it at [[WP:FAC]], but are only visible when one opens [[Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Uncle David/archive3]] itself. Very odd. Anyway, I've left a couple of queries there, in the context of an overall support, and hope you will take a look.

When I'm finished expanding [[D. Djajakusuma]], I will probably end up pinging some of the reviewers who regularly help me to help polish the prose before FAC.

== Tintin in Tibet ==

Hello, well-respected Midnightblueowl! FYI, [[Talk:Tintin_in_Tibet/GA1|this article is in GA review]]. The nominating editor is working to remove text where needed, and I am helping them by adding text where needed, but am running into issues when I do not have access to all the necessary source material. Could you please help? We need to reference Apostolidès, Goddin (2011), McCarthy, and Peeters (2012). I am about to add text from Thompson, Assouline, and Peeters (1989). Regards, and hope you are well. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 17:06, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

Update: I do have access to Apostolidès, Assouline, and Peeters (2012) after all, but still not McCarthy. Anticipating the additional references, I have added "placeholders" for them under the article's References. I have replaced the article's Bibliography and I have nearly finished verifying the article's current references. Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

==Negative 'addition'...==

Not quite sure why the removal of the following cited text was necessary, but if it was, it was odd to call it an addition in the edit summary; the new text that you did add was much shorter, and did not cover most of this material.

" Morris's only surviving painting in oils is of Jane Burden as ''La Belle Iseult''. William and Jane had two daughters, Jane Alice (Jenny), born January 1861, who developed epilepsy in her teens, and [[May Morris|Mary (May)]] (March 1862 – 1938), who became the editor of her father's works, a prominent socialist, and an accomplished designer and craftswoman.<ref name="Daly"/> Although of humble origins and unschooled in her youth,<ref name="WM"/> Jane Morris underwent a remarkable self-education after her marriage. A striking beauty, she mixed freely with the [[Pre-Raphaelites]] and posed many times for [[Dante Gabriel Rossetti]], with whom Jane had a long affair. The Morrises' initial happiness together did not survive the first ten years of their marriage, but divorce was unthinkable, and they remained together until Morris's death.<ref name="Daly" />"
:Hello there [[User:Chiswick Chap|Chiswick Chap]], and thanks for staying vigilent! Yes, I have simply removed the information here because I am reworking the text with the aid of more specialist sources (i.e. more recent biographies of Morris, starting with MacCarthy).

== RE: Jack Parsons (rocket engineer) ==

Hello again [[User:Midnightblueowl]]. As you can see I've been working quite frequently on Parsons' article, which I have enjoyed expanding and am hopeful about our goal for it to be featured on October 2. There are, however, some edits which I would like to happen but I do not possess the references to support them. I have read Parsons' ''Freedom is a Two-Edged Sword'' online, but it is out of print and is otherwise priced extortionately. I gather that you do own a copy, and if so I'd appreciate it if you could expand the political views section of the article, when you have the time, regarding Parsons' opposition to censorship of the arts/media, gun control, and re-distributive taxation. The latter views definitely reflect a right-wing libertarianism breaking from his former Marxism. Thanks!

Hello Midnightblueowl. Today the peer review for this article that you suggested I apply for was closed without being peer reviewed, but with the statement that it was.

Midnightblueowl, re. cited references: I believe the article is very well cited and I feel I have adequately covered the work of all of the authors in the bibliography, with the exception of  Assouline 2009 and Peeters 2012—the two I have not completed reading. If you were to annotate existing text of the article with additional cited references to these works I would be grateful. As I believe the writing and copy editing of the prose must be very nearly done, my next task will be rechecking all of the cited references, which I would be grateful if you were to do also. I understand if real life takes precedent as this is also very much the case with me. Cheers. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 13:34, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

== Conchita Wurst ==

Hi there,

I must say I do love the improvements you have made to Conchita Wurst's article.  The section on [[Conchita Wurst#International response|International response]]'s may benefit from some further expansion.  The part that mentions criticism from Russian politicians could do with the counter-argument that Conchita herself gave on [http://esctoday.com/84049/austria-conchita-wursts-television-appearances/ 2 separate interviews] for British television.  On both ''[[The One Show]]'' and ''[[Newsnight|BBC Newsnight]]'', Conchita responded to what those politicians said with the remark {{tq|i=y|"Well I don’t really focus on negativity at all because there’s nothing which brings me further by thinking about that [...] But actually, I have to say that when politicians, like really famous ones, say that I’m the reason why Europe will crash into pieces, I have to say [that] I’ve never received a bigger honour. Because they think I’m that powerful… thank you. I don’t want to disappoint you but I’m just a drag queen."}}.  Might be a worthwhile addition and maintains [[WP:NPOV]].

=="British Isles"==

I see you've been going around Wikipedia passionately creating articles with the British jingoistic name "British Isles" in them, despite that verifiably imperialist 16th-century English term never having been used at the time. I've chosen one such article and [[Talk:Norse_activity_in_the_British_Isles|commented there]].

== Archaeological theory template ==

Hi Midnightblueowl,

I've been aware of your contribution of [[Template:Archaeological Theory]] for some time, and IMO, it is exactly the sort of thing on wiki that is actually useful for students and other interested parties because it puts an article in full context. On a similar note, I wondered if I could get your opinion on a similar template I've been working on [[User:Brigade Piron/sandbox2#Archaeology|here]] on sub-disciplines of Archaeology? Do you think it's complete enough to actually launch? ''[[User:Brigade Piron|Brigade Piron]]'' ([[User talk:Brigade Piron|talk]]) 10:41, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

:Hello [[User:Brigade Piron|Brigade Piron]]; you know I had completely forgotten that I ever created that template... I don't tend to do much with work with templates here at Wikipedia these days. But I think that the one which you have proposed certainly looks set to go! Best, [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 16:20, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

== Le Monde de Tintin ==

Hello Midnightblueowl; I was not stepping forward, but as it has been open for awhile I will now offer to review ''[[King Ottokar's Sceptre]]'', if you would like. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 19:28, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

::Sure. I may do so this weekend. I like working with you. Please note: The article is missing Goddin's Volume 2 and should not be; I believe that book absolutely should be referenced and no more referencing Volume 1 (the previous ''Tintin'' book should also have referenced Volume 2). I will be happy to do this for the article as well, or perhaps you can. Cheers and have a great week, [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 22:27, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

{{u|Midnightblueowl}}, ''[[The Shooting Star]]'' is not ready for nomination for GA yet, I haven't had a chance to review it for errors (I'm actually still improving your productive effort on ''[[The Crab with the Golden Claws]]''; it's good but it has a lot of passive voice introduced to it, which I am working to improve). You know that you make plenty of errors (all of us do), you know that I can usually spot them, and you know that you can ask me to review your work anytime. Every writer needs an editor. Or if you'd rather not, at least allow those of us who care for the Tintin articles as much as you do a chance to make our improvements to your productive and greatly appreciated work before you submit it for a formal excellence assessment. You know I have the greatest respect for you. Cheers. [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]] ([[User talk:Prhartcom|talk]]) 13:41, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
:Hello [[User:Prhartcom|Prhartcom]]; you make a fair point, and I appreciate your effort with the editing process. I have been rushing a little with Wikipedia stuff lately due to a spell of free time that shall soon be over; hence my desire to get those two articles through GAN (although they are both undoubtedly broadly ready). Before long, I will not have much opportunity to contribute to Wikipedia on a regular basis. I hope that explains things a little. Best, [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 19:27, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
::It does, thank-you. However, I doubt they are "broadly ready"; ''Crab'' wasn't. Just as you told me my writing needed to be copyedited (when I asked you how it looked) you can know it is the same with your writings also. But now, two editors you trust are looking at them (Brigade Piron also), so the articles should be looking good when they go into GA. I have temporarily withdrawn the nomination by removing the GA nominee template from the article talk page. Please do nominate it again if you'd like after giving me a chance to copy edit it (after I finish ''Crab''); shouldn't take me too long.

== Great work on the "New Age" page! ==

Dear Midnightblue, - I want to thank you, so much, for you excellent additions to and edits on the [[New Age]] page.  I've been the primary contributor to its "Social and political movement" section, and I helped New Age maintain its "Good Article" status a few months ago although I was not sure the article as a whole deserved that status.  Now it surely does.  Thanks again. - [[User:Babel41|Babel41]] ([[User talk:Babel41|talk]]) 01:57, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
:Hello [[User:Babel41|Babel41]] and thanks for your message! I am fortunate in that I have access to the academic texts on the New Age movement, and thus am able to take the page in directions that (I assume) previous editors were unable to do. I see it as a work in progress however, and will continue to contribute to it in the hope that one day it can be pulled up to FA status.

== RE: Jack Parsons (rocket engineer) ==

Greetings MBO. I'm pleased with the progression of Parsons' article in the past few months. We have followed all the recommendations of the original FA review, including the expansion of its references and a more detailed description of the scientific aspect. [[User:Chaosdruid]]'s copyedit has also significantly improved the prose. It's a slight regret that we didn't meet the ambition of the article being featured on Parsons' centenary, but of course what truly matters is its quality. I'm now adequately satisfied for us to go for a second FA review. What do you think? [[User:JJARichardson|JJARichardson]] ([[User talk:JJARichardson|talk]]) 21:30, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Let's go for it, [[User:JJARichardson|JJARichardson]]! [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 15:33, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

:Good to hear. Shall set up the review or would you prefer to? [[User:JJARichardson|JJARichardson]] ([[User talk:JJARichardson|talk]]) 15:51, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
::Be my guest; it's probably better that you are the first nominator given that I already have a solo nomination ([[Luo Yixiu]]) open. Best, [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 16:06, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

== 3O needed ==

Good morning, Midnightblueowl, hope you are well! Over at [[Talk:Tintin in Tibet#Sloppy writing]], a gentleman (and administrator) is trying to help ''copy edit'' this thoroughly copy edited article, but is doing so a bit arrogantly (also [[User talk:John#Unnecessary.|here]]). I reverted half of his changes as unnecessary, and that stung, I would think. Could you pop over and lean on my side a bit? I greatly respect your time and I don't think you need to be all involved, but I would appreciate just a few words of your support. Thanks.

== Copyright checks when performing AfC reviews ==

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}. This message is part of a mass mailing to people who appear active in reviewing articles for creation submissions. First of all, thank you for taking part in this important work! I'm sorry this message is a form letter – it really was the only way I could think of to covey the issue economically. Of course, this also means that I have not looked to see whether the matter is applicable to ''you'' in particular.<p>The issue is in rather large numbers of copyright violations ("copyvios") making their way through AfC reviews without being detected (even when easy to check, and even when [[Wikipedia:Spotting possible copyright violations|hallmarks of copyvios]] in the text that should have invited a check, were glaring). A second issue is the correct method of dealing with them when discovered.<p>If you don't do so already, I'd like to ask for your to help with this problem by taking on the practice of performing a copyvio check as the first step in any AfC review. The most basic method is to simply copy a unique but small portion of text from the draft body and run it through a search engine in quotation marks. Trying this from two different paragraphs is recommended. (If you have any question about whether the text was copied ''from the draft'', rather than the other way around (a "backwards copyvio"), the [https://archive.org/web/ Wayback Machine] is very useful for sussing that out.)<p>If you do find a copyright violation, please ''do not'' decline the draft on that basis. Copyright violations need to be dealt with immediately as they may harm those whose content is being used and expose Wikipedia to potential legal liability. If the draft is substantially a copyvio, and there's no non-infringing version to revert to, please mark the page for speedy deletion right away using <nowiki>{{db-g12|url=</nowiki><tt>URL of source</tt>}}. If there is an assertion of permission, please replace the draft article's content with <nowiki>{{subst:copyvio|url=</nowiki><tt>URL of source</tt>}}.<p>Some of the more obvious indicia of a copyvio are use of the first person ("we/our/us..."), phrases like "this site", or apparent artifacts of content written for somewhere else ("top", "go to top", "next page", "click here", use of smartquotes, etc.); inappropriate tone of voice, such as an overly informal tone or a very slanted marketing voice with [[WP:WEASEL|weasel words]]; including intellectual property symbols (™,®); and blocks of text being added all at once in a finished form with no misspellings or other errors.<p> I hope this message finds you well and thanks again you for your efforts in this area. Best regards--[[User:Fuhghettaboutit|Fuhghettaboutit]] ([[User talk:Fuhghettaboutit#top|talk]]) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC).<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sent via--[[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

== Strikes ==

Hey, I know you're acting in good faith, but it's not a good idea to strike other people's comments (as per [[WP:TPO]]).  Some editors would get pissed off about that, and in this particular case one of my comments wasn't actually addressed the way I'd intended (the one about French publication—I wasn't asking idly, I was implying the wording was ambiguous, and that wasn't dealt with). [[User:Curly Turkey|Curly&nbsp;Turkey]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Curly Turkey|''¡gobble!'']] 21:59, 21 November 2014 (UTC)
:Hi [[User:Curly Turkey|Curly]]. Thanks for your message, and apologies for any offence caused. I wasn't actually aware that Wikipedia guidelines officially considered strike-outs to be tantamount to changing an author's original prose, although I have encountered editors who are cagey about strike-outs in general in the past. I'm more that happy for you to "un-strike" any comments that you felt were not sufficiently dealt with, however (as I stated in my edit summary) I find the strike-outs to be of great help in visually assessing which queries have been dealt with, and which have not. Otherwise we end up with very long blocks of text which are very hard to navigate, particularly for those of us with less than ideal vision. So I would certainly prefer it if you retained the strike-outs where you agree with them, and if you were to use them in future; then again, as you have pointed out, you would be perfectly within your rights to disagree. Anyway, all the best for now! [[User:Midnightblueowl|Midnightblueowl]] ([[User talk:Midnightblueowl#top|talk]]) 22:18, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

Just a quick note to congratulate you on the promotion of [[Luo Yixiu]]  to FA status recently.
