U2 360 GA

What would be an estimated time for GA review for this article? Lol it wasn't changed for about three days but noting again the process may take up to two weeks, so meh I guess it could wait. Prabash.Akmeemana 02:11, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, sorry about that. It's been real busy recently, I haven't had much time. Also, I tend to use Template:GAList2 because it's easy. But it doesn't work properly unless you subst it. BUT it becoes very hard to modify after being substed. So I leave it as a hidden comment until I finish. -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 05:13, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't mind

Would you like to review Great northern tilefish for GA? Let me set up the template first thing, then I guess if you want review it, because in return you get a lot of respect from users, though you don't have to review which is completely fine. Thanks! Prabash.Akmeemana |

Nice! I'd be happy to, but I can't quite see the nomination on the article's talk page. However, don't quite nominate it until the peer review is complete, and the article passes the B class criteria. :) -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 07:21, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Done, the article hasn't been assessed since I first created it as a small article so I moved it up to a B-class also I scrapped the peer review as nobody cared about for a month and I kinda withdrew that, I am taking the initiative to bring it to GA as I created it a while ago with my alternate which I don't use anymore. So Leeeroy Jenkins I guess. Prabash.Akmeemana 01:46, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I will get to it soon. :) -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 02:37, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I'm not sure that bypassing these redirects is a good idea, as the links are NOTBROKEN and it's replacing a single link to a section with a large number of them, which may complicate future maintenance. Kanguole 08:35, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. I did read the article, and it says that they should not be bypassed in case of a future article there. But that redirect is fully protected to sysops, so I thought that it was pointless having the redirect. Sorry about that. -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 08:40, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The ideal action in these cases might have been to delink the term, especially in cases where it's in a lead and there's a nearby link to a specific period of Chinese history. Looking at the queue on your user page, I'd suggest that for "Warring States Period", "Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period" and (not listed) "Spring and Autumn Period", it would be better to de-capitalize the "P" in the article text than to pipe the link. "Joss stick" might some day be unmerged as an independent article, so bypassing links to it would probably be counter-productive. Kanguole 08:55, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with Kanguole, came here to say the same thing. Best practice is not to replace redirects for reasons detailed in WP:NOTBROKEN . LK (talk) 09:01, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, thanks. So I can change the ones you said I could, but the others I'll leave them as they are. Cheers! -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 22:17, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
