Just created this article, and while I think it's a pretty good start, I would like to get this up to Good Article status eventually. I'm going to try and get a map created for the infobox.

Hi there,

I am attempting to create a wikipage for Nora Lustig. I did a user subpage first to see if I could get an expert to review my page.

I have cited everything with reputable sources.

What more do I need to do to push this page to the main entry as Nora Lustig?

Thanks so much!

Byzantine calendar

Hello, I am looking for feedback on the article Byzantine calendar. I have greatly expanded the article including detailed references and bibliography. Looking for overall feedback on it to improve it; would be appreciated; general and specific feedback would both be great. It is a historically based subject, and a Christian based subject, and I would like to ensure the article reads smoothly and is accessible to everyone. A fresh opinion and criticism would be helpful.

Also, on the talk page it is listed as part of 4 wikiprojects, still with no ratings yet. Any idea how or where I go to request a review for each of those specific projects? Any links or pages I should be going to? Also, how do I get the article reviewed by a subject specialist on the Wikipedia Editorial board? Many thanks, :) ΙΣΧΣΝΙΚΑ-888 (talk) 03:04, 11 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
