Yo, thanks for reviewing Anarchy in Somalia. I've made some initial responses to your comments on the talkpage. Regards, Skomorokh incite 03:27, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
I am not sure if you monitor Template:GA number, but I don't think it was updated for Mercury Hayes earlier today. I know the reviewer did not, but several adjustments have been made to the count that don't state a specific article in the edit summary. You are much closer to this part of the process than I, so I don't want to double count or omit the article. Please make the proper correction.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 18:36, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
Okay, I'm confused now. Per Wikipedia:BIRD#Bird_names_and_article_titles and WP:MOS common names for bird species are capitalised; any reason why tehy shouldn't be for osprey (except when referring to the osprey family)? Sabine's Sunbird talk 22:57, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi Steve -- thanks for having a look at Iyasu V of Ethiopia. I'm not up to date on the procedure for GA, so whom would I ask any general questions about the article or the criteria? -- llywrch (talk) 04:52, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks again for volunteering to help the Wine Project identify GA candidates. I was wondering if you would be interested in participating in the Wiki-Winos segment for an upcoming edition of the Wine Project Newsletter. (I'd probably post a new one next Monday-Tuesday). If you are interested, take a look at the interview questions and answer any that you would like. Just post your replies on the answer page. It would also be pretty neat to run a continuous segment in the newsletter with updates on the progress on the GA front in regards to wine articles. Would you be interested in helping with that?

Hello VanTucky! The entire content of the Megalodon article have been further refined and improved by me now and I have resolved many issues (including most of those that were pointed out by an another member in the talkpage of the article) and have posted a brief summary of the changes. Additionally! I have used several new sources (including some books) for citation of many points in the main article. So far, no more opinions have been posted in the talk page, which probably indicates that the article is in much better condition now. But the important thing is that your verdict on the current status (latest revision) of this article would be welcomed.

I am VanTucky on freenode and I would like to request the cloak wikipedia/VanTucky. Thanks VanTucky 23:52, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
Well you also have the skin flora, the urinary tract flora and the nasal flora, so it isn't all gut, although instinct might suggest that. ;) Tim Vickers (talk) 03:06, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks again for reviewing, I'm amazed it got through so quickly Jimfbleak (talk) 13:02, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed that you have moved the above article to Peppin Merino. Given that it is unlikely ever to need disambiguation, this seems a little strange to me although I am sure there is a good reason. The edit summary mentions a standard naming convention. Would you mind pointing me to it when you get a chance. Cheers, Mattinbgn\talk 13:31, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi there, firstly, thanks for the assessment. I really appreciate you taking out time in doing so.
I did my might by reviewing Alien vs. Predator (film) earlier today. Since, this was my first GA review, I was not sure if I got it right completely. It would really be great if you can spare a little while in having a cursory glance my my GA assessment. Many thanks and regards, Mspraveen (talk) 15:20, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
I thought it was a bit misleading - it listed several types of alternate medicine by name, then said there was evidence for several treatments - which implies thatthe treatments listed were the ones there were evidence for, but I don't think that's actually the case. Vanished user talk 04:33, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
A lot of work has been done recently on Battlefield Earth (film), and we were wondering if perhaps you could drop by Talk:Battlefield Earth (film) and do a quickie Wikipedia:Good article reassessment for us? Thanks for your time, Cirt (talk) 22:05, 20 January 2008 (UTC).
How weird. I just checked and it looked OK to me - it's reference #25 Endangered species update July/August 2001 p. 96 which should go to [2]- p. 96 has the reference. It's weird because I was looking at a page by Wildlife Defenders but they obviously have a POV and the u.mich.edu link seemed a better source. Maybe refresh your page and try again?Bob98133 (talk) 04:00, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
Heyo, I have some more photos at home if you want some. Of paticular interest is a couple of headhots of the young cria seen playing with the bark in the groupshot. ViridaeTalk 01:08, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
I opposed your last RfA (I can't remember how long ago it was) and I apologise for that. I may have been a tad hasty with my oppose. Recently I've looked at your contributions and I realise now that you'd make a great administrator. Any chance you'll be running again? Take care, friend.

What's the status on the GA review of this article... Thanks, Sarsaparilla (talk) 05:33, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi. We have replied to your comments. Thanks. Epbr123 (talk) 15:59, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
Good call on the image switch. Dismas|(talk) 03:23, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
My effort to regain adminship was unsuccessful, and I'll do what I can to ensure your opinion of my suitability for adminship improves. Thank you for taking some time out of your day to voice your opinion.--MONGO 19:48, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Once again thanks, got any more advice on this? I'm dying to get this article more up to date and more up to Good article criteria... LOTRrules (talk) 23:16, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Hey Van Tucky, is there any update for the GA stuff that I can incorporate into the Wine Newsletter. I'd like to get it out sometime on Wednesday. We don't really need a full evaluation of all our B articles for this first edition but some write up about the Top 3 closest articles to GA status and maybe the bottom 3 would be fine. Actually something that would be really great is for you to share your thoughts on what should be a "B-class" wine article. Whenever I go through the category, I'm amazed at the disparity at what we call "B-class". I always thought that B class should be "really close" to GA with only needing some polishing-(Kinda like the assessment scale example of Jammu and Kashmir). Just let me know when you get around to that. Thanks again for your help. AgneCheese/Wine 14:55, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Hey, Sometimes I am snarky at you for things, so this time I wanted to say THANK YOU for finding that nice image of the Faroe pony, you are very good at finding this stuff, I can enter search terms in commons and come up with zilch (though I am also on a dialup at home, so images are s-l-o-w to load) And thanks too for fixing the commons link. You are A CHAMP on this one! By the way, many of the obscure horse breed articles have no images at all, it's been a PITA to find some, I suspect German and some of the other foreign language wikipedias may be hiding a few, but other than "Pferde" my knowledge of German horse words is close to zero. The horse breeds tagged for photos are with the dogs at Category:Wikipedia requested breed photographs.
By the way, there's an argument to be made for finding a different Shetland pony photo, as the one there is a bit dwarfish in the legs, (The one you found was quite poorly conformed, and the grooming thing isn't an issue; really, all animals spend most of their time in "ungroomed casual mutt" state, but when we show the ideal or standard in an artcle, just like with dogs, we like a photo of the animal properly groomed for public view) Problem is, the ungroomed fuzzballs irritate the afficionados and started the last big edit war over there, BUT the nicely groomed American Shetlands (of which there are several photos in commons, including the cute one with the three year old kid) are considered too refined and leggy to make the European breeders happy (horse politics are a pain), and most of the photos of "normal" shetlands (like the girl in the cart) are distorted or otherwise not great photos. (**whining**) The breed standard that I think would be non-controversial if there was a GOOD image, is basically a well-groomed and well-conformed version of the "foundation" shetland like the one in the drawing, something not too stumpy in the legs (which seems to be the flaw in the European ponies, the "sausage with legs" look) but also not too skinny (the over refined stuff with crooked legs is the Americans' problem), sort of like this copyrighted image (which would be perfect except for the photoshopping out of the background, sigh) this bunch would probably work too, especially that cute little jumper. Anyway, should you find anything, can you toss it up on the talk page over there for a look-see? Sorry to go on and on, just wish there were more free images to choose from and that I had a faster internet connection. Anyhow, this is a long way of saying thanks and that I DO appreciate your ability to find images. Montanabw(talk) 06:39, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
Hey, I just got the premission from the copyright holder to use this photo Do I go ahead and upload it and credit him? Bobisbob (talk) 00:45, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
I am not one for sending round pretty pictures, but after my recent RfA, which passed 68/1/7, I am now relaxed and this is to thank you for your support. I will take on board all the comments made and look forward to wielding the mop with alacrity. Or two lacrities. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 20:59, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
