WormTT, I do need some assistance. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I don't understand why to leave a message one is supposed to edit the person's talk page. You said to type {helpme}} at the bottom of your talk page and sign in with four tilda. [[User:Tantidharo|tdharris]] ([[User talk:Tantidharo|talk]]) 08:36, 24 December 2010 (UTC) |

Hello! Your submission of HMS Whiting (1812) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified.

- Thanks for your note, you made a good start with it. Moonraker2 (talk) 11:01, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
The article Doom Bar you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Doom Bar for things which need to be addressed. Jezhotwells (talk) 19:46, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
DYK for HMS Whiting (1812)
![]() | On 28 November 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article HMS Whiting (1812), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that three crew members were each given 50 "lashes with nine tails" after HMS Whiting was lost on the dangerous Doom Bar? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
Chile
Hi, just wondering, what is going on there, are you reverting vandalism or have you got citation to support your change? I don't think pending is working very well there, never mind, it looks alright now, thanks. Off2riorob (talk) 14:00, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
Doom Bar PR
Glad my comments are helpful. I did not do a line by line review as I figured things would change with a copyedit, plus some newer sources will hopefully turn up more interesting facts. Please ask if you want me to take another look, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 15:59, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
- I replied on the PR page as that is linked from the article's talk and everyone can see the comments most easily there. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 15:51, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
All Day transcription
Thanks for doing the infographic transcription. Gillis just wrote me and he said that he has a timing list, but he has to format it and he does not know when he will have time to deal with it. Since you looked thoroughly at the Fastcompany data, let me know if you learned something about it that I do not know. It seems obvious to me that however they got the track timing data, they did not get it from Wikipedia. I assume they just used Wikipedia as a starting point then independently verified everything they did, but the data is very different and I see no reason to call it a circular reference.

- No problem, I thought it was a very good solution, and would have been very helpful. I agree there are significant differences (samples missing, others added, second differences here and and there), and they do mention that they did some of their own work. However, they specifically state that they use Mashupbreakdown.com and AllDaySamples.com, both of which specifically cite Wikipedia. It may be that the information has all featured on our page at some point and been removed or changed, but either way there is a clear circular reference.
- Hopefully Gillis will publish something so that we can put it up, I've not requested deletion of my FastCompany transcription, as it may be useful in the future if we can use it. Also, Errant's point regarding overkill is a good one, the rest of the article could do with some expansion if we are going to put in such a large track listing.Worm 17:51, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
