Hi Iazyges! When you want to nominate one of my short Byzantine biographical articles for GA, please check with me first specifically for each article. On the one hand, some of them, like Isaac Komnenos (son of Alexios I) are not complete yet; on the other, the reviewer may require changes where I as the main author and the one with access to the original sources need to be available to edit them. I know we discussed this some months ago and I gave you a go ahead, but this was not meant as a blank check. After all, an article I wrote back in 2010 is often not up to my standards of 2018 ;). I appreciate the enthusiasm, but currently my watchlist is full of GANs left and right of articles that are often half-baked, and trying to keep tabs with them is frustrating.

Hello to all! I do not intend to write a regular peer review newsletter but there does occasionally come a time when those interested in contributing to peer review should be contacted, and now is one. I've mailed this out to everyone on the peer review volunteers list, and some editors that have contributed to past discussions. Apologies if I've left you off or contacted you and you didn't want it. Next time there is a newsletter / mass message it will be opt in ( here), I'll talk about this below - but first:
The list is here in case you've forgotten: WP:PRV. Kadane has kindly offered to create a bot that will ping editors on the volunteers list with unanswered reviews in their chosen subject areas every so often. You can choose the time interval by changing the "contact" parameter. Options are "never", "monthly", "quarterly", "halfyearly", and "annually". For example:
{{PRV|JohnSmith|History of engineering|contact=monthly}}
- if placed in the "History" section, JohnSmith will receive an automatic update every month about unanswered peer reviews relating to history.{{PRV|JaneSmith|Mesopotamian geography, Norwegian fjords|contact=annually}}
- if placed in the "Geography" section, JaneSmith will receive an automatic update every yearly about unanswered peer reviews in the geography area.We can at this stage only use the broad peer review section titles to guide what reviews you'd like, but that's better than nothing! You can also set an interest in multiple separate subject areas that will be updated at different times.
I don't think we need a WikiProject with a giant bureaucracy nor all sorts of whiz-bang features. However over the last few years I've found there are times when it would have been useful to have a list of editors that would like to contribute to discussions about the peer review process (e.g. instructions, layout, automation, simplification etc.). Also, it can get kind of lonely on the talk page as I am (correct me if I'm wrong) the only regular contributor, with most editors moving on after 6 - 12 months.
So, I've decided to create " WikiProject Peer review". If you'd like to contribute to the WikiProject, or make yourself available for future newsletters or contact, please add yourself to the list of members.
We plan to do some advertising of peer review, to let editors know about it and how to volunteer to help, at a couple of different venues (Signpost, Village pump, Teahouse etc.) - but have been waiting until we get this bot + WikiProject set up so we have a way to help interested editors make more enduring contributions. So consider yourself forewarned!
And... that's it!
I wish you all well on your Wikivoyages, Tom (LT) ( talk) 00:31, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
I am thinking of overhauling and resurrecting the NPR school sometime soon. I see you are listed as a trainer over there.

A tag has been placed on Eudokia Komnene (daughter of Isaac Komnenos) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
Wrong use of a redirect: redirects are not to be used in lieu of articles for individuals (especially non-notable ones)
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

On 22 July 2018 you made a sequence of edits (usually referred to as an "edit") to the article Maurice (emperor).
There are a number of specialised templates that make linking to an article on Wikisource easier. They usually do this by placing a wrapper around standard template like {{
cite encyclopedia}}
(I have a none definitive list of them in
User:PBS/Notes#List of PD Templates). These templates only support a limited number of standard parameters and often have specialised ones. Any additional parameters are not usually passed through to the standard templates and additional parameters often place an article into a category bucket. In the case of {{
EB1911}}
into
Category:Pages using EB1911 with unknown parameters which is how I noticed your edit to the article
Maurice (emperor).
It would help if you could read the documentation for {{
cite EB1911}}
{{
EB1911}}
as that will explain how these templates work. It will also familiarise you with what parameters are available. If you look at my
recent sequence of edits to the article. You will see three other points.
{{
cite book}}
family of templates) and cs2 ({{

) there is a difference in how the delimiters between parameters are displayed and some other alteration see
Help:CS2. So either add mode=cs1

to the {{
cite book}}
family of templates. If mode=cs2 is adopted there is no need for the ref=harv
parameter as it is the default in CS2.short=x
If you had read the {{
cite EB1911}}
you would have seen that short=x
was serving a valid purpose (it removes some of the verbose details used in citations, but not needed in the other appendices and ought not to have been removed.{{

G'day Iazyges, I just wanted to encourage you to nominate one of your Milhist A-Class articles for FAC. This one seems like a good one to have a crack at. Maybe you could co-nom it with Sturm if it would be your first one? Anyway, have a think about it? Cheers, Peacemaker67 ( click to talk to me) 10:07, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
Hi Iazyges. GA review. On 10 August Constantine finally finished and cleared you to carry on the assessment. You have just put the assessment on hold. Without, so far as I can see, giving me any actions to do. Am I missing something? Gog the Mild ( talk) 21:55, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

Hello once again. I reviewed the Portuguese version of Tiberius (son of Constans II) and Heraclius (son of Constans II) using your last editions on the articles. Both are really fine, but both of them use Canduci in a substancial part of the last paragraph ("Throughout all this, Tiberius was kept under [...]") and it's not a reliable source. I searched that information on other sources, and I found nothing. I removed that part and added relevant information based on their PMBZ's profiles. Maybe you should read that. I also changed Norwich, another source not so good, for Stratos. Maybe you should see that too.-- Renato de carvalho ferreira ( talk) 07:31, 28 August 2018 (UTC)

G'day Iazyges, I just wanted to encourage you to nominate one of your Milhist A-Class articles for FAC. This one seems like a good one to have a crack at. Maybe you could co-nom it with Sturm if it would be your first one? Anyway, have a think about it? Cheers, Peacemaker67 ( click to talk to me) 10:07, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
Hi Iazyges. GA review. On 10 August Constantine finally finished and cleared you to carry on the assessment. You have just put the assessment on hold. Without, so far as I can see, giving me any actions to do. Am I missing something? Gog the Mild ( talk) 21:55, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
Do you mind reviewing Kaʻiminaʻauao when ever you are ready? It has similar sources and prose as Talk:Leleiohoku II/GA1 which you have started. Do what you can. Thanks. KAVEBEAR ( talk) 01:04, 19 August 2018 (UTC)

Hello Iazyges. I don't know what source you used to quote Aspar's words, but if you used Lee, it's "through" not "by". Cheers.-- Renato de carvalho ferreira ( talk) 04:22, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
I think it's all. Cheers!-- Renato de carvalho ferreira ( talk) 23:17, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
Hello once again. I reviewed the Portuguese version of Tiberius (son of Constans II) and Heraclius (son of Constans II) using your last editions on the articles. Both are really fine, but both of them use Canduci in a substancial part of the last paragraph ("Throughout all this, Tiberius was kept under [...]") and it's not a reliable source. I searched that information on other sources, and I found nothing. I removed that part and added relevant information based on their PMBZ's profiles. Maybe you should read that. I also changed Norwich, another source not so good, for Stratos. Maybe you should see that too.-- Renato de carvalho ferreira ( talk) 07:31, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
