Revision as of 21:20, 11 September 2007




If you want me to look at an article, please provide the link.
I usually respond on my talk page, so watch the page for my reply.
To leave me a message, click here.


You have in the past done a quick review of the article, and I'm requesting you to take another look. I have read your troubles with internet connectivity at the moment. But, can you, please, do the article a big favor? I'd very much like to have {{fact}} tags slapped on to the critical information that really desperately needs a citation. And, may be then you can post a message to that end to Wikipedia:Peer review/Jayne Mansfield. That way it will be easier for me to get attention the really knowledgeable people who have worked on the article before. They may be weak in writing encyclopedic articles, but they know their Ms Mansfield. The article has come a long way, and I really want it to become a GA now. Cheers.

Request

I Sandy, I have re-written the intro. of Corsican immigration to Puerto Rico (No, I don't plan on working in an FA, smile) and I was wondering if you could check the prose for me. Feel free to make any changes. I'm going over some of my older articles that may need an overhaul. Thanks. Tony the Marine 20:51, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. You were involved in the Reagan FAC. We could use your input on a problem we're having with an editor, who's constantly inserting an item into the lead when we've all decided by consensus that it doesn't belong. Please see the Reagan talk page for my suggestion, and please comment appropriately, however you feel it should go. Thanks. Info999 01:21, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Spoo

As you requested, here is the deletion nomination: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Spoo Punctured Bicycle 08:13, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WikiChevrons with Oak Leaves

By the order of the coordinators of the Military history WikiProject, you are hereby awarded the WikiChevrons with Oak Leaves in recognition of the instrumental role you play in the featured article process, both by checking the project's featured article candidates to ensure that the citations are formatted correctly, and by helping clear out the backlog of featured articles that no longer meet the criteria. For the coordinators, Kirill 22:47, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You opposed the FAC of Carnivàle at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Carnivàle because you didn't agree with using forum posts of the show's creator as references. I have addressed this issue as best as I could (see the FAC for my comments), but I'm not sure if you're still actively reading the progress of the FAC. Since the article is now in the last 5 out of 60 open FACs and moving to close, and since rarely anybody comments/supports/opposes it anymore, would you now consider changing your vote to support, retract your oppose vote, or at least state what still needs improvement? Thank you in either case. Greetings, – sgeureka t•c 00:05, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

peace, or else.

It has been way too quite and placid here recently, so I have been making wild, reckless accusations on Yannismarou's talk tonight. You might join in on the fun...if not, well we'll have too see about that. (Just trying to cheer you up). Ceoil 01:50, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh ... You terrible backbiter! You involve others in this diabolic plan of yours! Thank God some people have the mind to understand that this is a serious site ... By the way, I still cannot overcome this: "If anyone says a word against this lady ... " So, Sandy is a "she"?! I think this came as a shock to me as strong as the shock Ceoil suffered when he realized that I was not his choices 1 and 2! A lady with an iron fist in Wikipedia ... And it took me more than a year to see the obvious! OK ... Then I deserve Ceoil's humiliation. Come on! Shoot me!--Yannismarou 08:28, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Renewable energy

Many thanks for your patience with this. I am most grateful and it seems to have passed muster without too much controversy. Ben MacDui (Talk) 14:16, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The list

Hi Sandy. Do you want me to update the citations list from now on? I don't mind (although it's still a monster, even with 60% done). I was looking through some of the "Few citations" articles today and noticed that in most every case reference work had been done. So that's good. Marskell 16:09, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RFC filed against User:Epbr123

I noticed your discussions regarding the etiquette of User:Epbr123. Due to events that have occurred since then, an RFC has been filed and you are invited to participate in determining the course of action that should be taken regarding resolving the issues that surround the user and his contested actions. --Joe Beaudoin Jr. Think out loud 19:30, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Improving AS

I can help with editing AS now, but will run lower on free time starting next week. There are few missing pieces; mostly what is needed is copyediting that removes and streamlines text. When I wrote the review I didn't realize "Diagnosis" had been munged; I have since attempted to edit the new subarticle for "Diagnosis" so that it is no worse than the "Diagnosis" section of the LRSV. I like having a shorter "Diagnosis" summary in the article, think the current summary is not a good one, but didn't tackle the summary since I wanted your opinion first. My main concern is that other editors won't agree. This is why I (mostly) wrote a review instead of just going ahead to edit. But if we can agree, I can just edit.

Parapsychology is now a Featured Article

The Paranormal Barnstar
