On my watchlist there's an edit for the SR-71 Blackbird [ [1]] and It looks like I made the edit, I did no such thing. Yes I made an edit today in "futher reading" section I added a book. But why does it look like I made the "small" edit when I did not ? Asking you because first name I saw I trusted sorry Mlpearc ( talk) 23:30, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Arthur Rubin's opinion of Dr. Jones is contrary to Wikipedia's definition of Professor Emeritus as "A full professor who retires in good standing."
The Wikipedia public does not care what Arthur thinks of Dr. Jones. It is inappropriate to put in Wikipedia. It does not follow the principles: Be Polite, Assume Good Faith, Avoid Personal Attacks, or Be Welcoming.
Arthur Rubin needs to find a source from a BYU Administrator that contradicts his status as Professor Emeritus, retiring in good standing, which only the best professors do. Most simply retire. Cicorp ( talk) 23:04, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
Dear Jezhotwells
Thank you so much for your comments, very helpful. I had no idea this was the case. I am confused though what to do now?
The account can be edited by an independent journalist who does not know the person, however in the conflict of interest notes, it states in the Wikipedia rules that "The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing."
You suggest that another user name/person is used but it states above that another person cannot edit the account...or am I reading this incorrectly?
Please advise urgently.
Thank you. Josephine Carter ( talk) 15:09, 24 February 2010 (UTC)Josephine Carter February 24th Josephine Carter ( talk) 15:09, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
Dear Jezhotwells
As this is such a public forum, I refer to the named person's living biography whom we are discussing. Please understand not everyone is prolific in the use of Wikipedia editing. The named person's wiki page has been up for years without any problems!! Correct information as it pertains to a living person's date of birth, early life, especially if it is not in Europe and in Africa where most traditional/family history is NOT documented,and is passed from generation to generation via oral history, correct historical information has to be collected by interview also from the named living person. I am happy to pass the editing of this person's page the a third party, however all the content on the named person's biography is correct and nothing would be changed. The named person's early life, ancestry in Ghana is correct, however there are limited written histories on Royal African families and most people get their information now from the internet AND use Wiki as a reliable source. I am quite frustrated what to do as the page now looks discredited whilst only a few changes were added (date of birth) and early childhood African ancestry. Please advise as it looks terrible as it stands and quite honestly, hours and hours can be spent trying to understand Wikipedia rules and jargon - I hope you can understand and be of assistance. Thank you.

Hi Jezhotwells, I hope you are doing well. You had previously reviewed a GA candidate I had nominated, The History of British Political Parties. Another related GA candidate has been sitting at WP:GAN for a few months - I was wondering if you would care to review it? The article is - United Kingdom Election Results. Thank you for your time, Cirt ( talk) 21:51, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi Jezhotwells, I believe that any FA should represent the best WP has to offer. As such, any technical claims must be properly researched and presented. Instead of criticizing, I decided to actually help improve the article, so that it can be accurate and properly balanced, esp. on the technical front. I do think the article has FA potential, but more must be done to reach that stage, and anyone with knowledge in this area is welcome to help. Crum375 ( talk) 14:22, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
There is still much to be done, so I will de-list now. When these issues, most importantly reworking and organising the whole article for style and clarity, then it may be re-nominated at WP:GAN. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:07, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
According to the WP:GAR guidelines for an individual reassessment:
According to the talk page history, your reassessment started and ended as follows:

These reassessments generally take a minimum of a few days. Allowing less than an hour is not realistic. I would appreciate if you would undo your delisting and allow at least a few days for others to respond. Thank you. Boghog ( talk) 00:16, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks to everyone's amazing efforts in February, we have reviewed all of the articles and are now finished with Sweeps! There are still about 30 articles currently on hold, and once those reviews are completed, I will send you a final message about Sweeps process stats including the total number of articles that were passed and failed. If you have one of these open reviews, be sure to update your count when the review is completed so I can compile the stats. You can except to receive your award for reviewing within the next week or two. Although the majority of the editors did not start Sweeps at the beginning in August 2007 (myself included), over 50 editors have all come together to complete a monumental task and improve many articles in the process. I commend you for sticking with this often challenging task and strengthening the integrity of the GA WikiProject as well as the GAs themselves. I invite you to take a break from reviewing (don't want you to burn out!) and then consider returning/starting to review GANs and/or contribute to GAR reviews. With your assistance, we can help bring the backlog down to a manageable level and help inspire more editors to improve articles to higher classes and consider reviewing themselves. Again, thank you for putting up with difficult reviews, unhappy editors, numerous spam messages from me, and taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing!

I am looking to put up a personal page for each member of the international multiplatinum rock band The Killers (Island Def Jam Records, 15 million records+ sold). One of them (lead singer) has a page, the other three do not yet (they were deleted each time). These members each perform interviews for various international publications. They each have fan groups and they have each been featured for their superior talent at their instruments in internationally published (ie. 'Bass Guitar Magazine' cover June 2009, 'Bass Player' Magazine, 'Drummer' Magazine cover June 2009, 'Rhythm Magazine', 'Modern Drummer' Magazine, 'Drumhead Magazine', and 'Guitarist' Magazine May 2009, etc) magazines. What do I need to do to restore/write wikipedia pages for these guys? I am more than happy to have my proposed pages approved by a wikipedia staff member. I am sure that you will find that they meet all standards for personal pages. Below I have written some of the publications that each can be seen in individually. The actual publications I can provide sources for or they can be found also at the painstakingly collected www.thekillersfansite.com. I can find many more publications like these if needed.
Dave Keuning: About.com (interview) Main Stage Centrail (T in the Park, Scotland, interview) Musicradar.com (interview) Whisky Soda: Alt Music Magazine (Germany, interview) Rolling Stone Magazine (Spain, Nov 2008, interview) HotPress (Feb 2009, interview) Colorado Springs Independent (newspaper, Jan 2009, interview) stuff.co.nz (Jan 2009, apology for show cancellation and interview) Timeslive (interview about show at the "Dome") TVNZ (interview) threedworld.com.au (Feb 2009, Australia, interview) Hiwatt Endorsement (current)

Below are links to the starts of each of their articles--can you please restore these? I will polish them up to specks if you will do that. I think a better way to approach these this second time would be to focus on their instruments and the specs associated with them for the fans who are interested in playing like them, etc. Something similar to the pages up for members of the rock band Kings of Leon (Jared Followill, etc) < http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Dave_Keuning&oldid=326671755>, < http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Ronnie_Vannucci_Jr&oldid=309104025>, and < http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Mark_Stoermer&oldid=326272613>.
Please help me. If you would read through this I am sure that you will find these persons worthy of wikipedia pages.
Sincerely, Joe Meservy (on wikipedia 'waytagojoe') joemeservy@gmail.com You can also contact the management and law firm for each of these persons at http://www.reynolds-lawyers.com to confirm details.-- Waytagojoe ( talk) 22:23, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi jezhotwells, thanks for your recent feedback and guidance on the BT:musician article that I've been monitoring for awhile. I'm starting to get the hang of what is wanted/expected and think I will start branching out and doing updates to other electronica musicians. I'm looking for some feedback and guidance on the recent edits I've made. Would you mind looking at my contributions to some other album/biography pages and let me know if my edits were reasonable and justified?

Thanks for uploading File:Emerald silhouette logo1.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

I much preferred the DYK without the explanation as to what a Bristol Diamond is/was. You have lost, in my view, a bit of the 'hookiness' (mystique) by way of the explanation. I bet you would get more hits if you left the wording more obscure. Just my thoughts - POV and all that. Regards,

While I understand your concern regarding the images in the Ram Loevy article and associated articles, rest assured that I am aware of the concerns regarding Free Images, and was perfectly clear to Mr. Loevy what that means when I insisted that the only images that he could send me must be released under a free--and not fair use--license. I may not be a popular Wikipedian these days, but considering my long past with WMF (you can ask around about that), I have always been an advocate--in an official and unofficial capacity--of the inclusion of "free" images only--you can ask Kat about that. In fact, I was very proud of being able to get these images released under a specifically free license. Nevertheless, I understand your concerns and have sent an email to Mr. Loevy asking him to clarify his position. I should have it tomorrow and will then forward it to OTRS.

Hi there, I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction, I was going to write an article on the Bristol record label, The Subway Organisation. However I see the French Wikipedia site already has an article, so was wondering if there was a facility to translate it over into English, rather than duplicate it. I don't have a problem translating or rewriting it, put it seems pointless if there is in fact a way around this. Cogoal ( talk) 10:03, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Forgive me if I am posting out of line, but I've not spent any time on Wiki and have no idea where to go for such things...
I own Bondurant's Pharmacy in Lexington, KY (You can see my building if you Wiki Lexington KY)... There was a Wiki entry on the pharmacy that was apparently taken down by an Administrator named The JPS (I've tried to contact him/her but can't figure out how to do that)...
I'd like my information restored. How do I do that?
(Incidentally, there was nothing inaccurate about the information on that page... for that matter, there really wasn't much on that page at all... I can't see any reason to remove it.)
Any advice would be helpful.

Re: Shaheera Asante Living Biography Page Thanks for all your assistance and fairness so far. Due to the 'conflict of interest' banner still remaining on this person's Biography page, can the subject's biography page be temporarily removed, until a new up to date biography page can be written in its place?
The subject of the biography has expressed distress at the current state of the biography. Which I believe is not the purpose of Wikipedia.
Please advise.

Dear Markussep,
After the Odorhei discussion ( [6]) the status quo for Transylvanian places was that the artice name is Romanian, if Hungarian population <20%, in the infobox both Romanian and Hungarian names should be indicated, and also in the lead both Romanian and Hungarian names should be bolded.
About two weeks ago, an editor called User: Iadrian yu supported by absolutely new editors User:Dicocodino, User:Umumu, User:Amon Koth (the latter 3 with zero or close to zero edits) started a campaign against this situation referring to general naming policies.
They were looking for discuss resolution forums trying to find a favourable opinion for them ie. deleting bolded Hungarian names. You and User:Markussep gave them a negative opinion at here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:S%C4%83rma%C5%9Fu (Nagysármás)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Editor_assistance/Requests/Archive_73 (Nagysármás)
Then, on 23rd, March User: Iadrian yu started to delete bolded Hungarian names from every settlement of Harghita, Covasna and Mures country making masses of deletes.
Finally, they found an admin User:Mjroots who decided in their favor as a result of a dispute in which a very few people took place (most of them zero a close to zero edits), and neither you nor User:Jezhotwells were notified although I asked the admin to do so. (ruling here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive605)
What do you think about it? How the Odorhei-compromise which worked for 3 years can be overthrown like this. Is this the way of consensus building and dispute resolution?
I think in this case Myroots made a very big mistake, but, I seem unable to explain the situation it to him as an interested party. I am very dissapointed at how things work now. Kind regards: User:Rokarudi--Rokarudi 17:22, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

This is from Mosmof on the talk page - Has something changed since then ???? P
Please read - Quote re Torossian... Has something changed ?
I've actually removed mention of the rabbi impersonation from here and moved it to the 5W page, since none of the media reports connect Ronn with the incident directly - as far as reliable sources can tell, it was an indiscretion by the firm, not Ronn. So we can move the discussion to the talk page there: Talk:5W Public Relations. No, I'm not willing to identify myself, and attempting to out me is against Wiki policy (well, except when there's clear evidence of COI, of course). All I can say is that I have an extensive edit history where Agriprocessor- or Torossian-related topics constitute a tiny, tiny percentage. So it's highly unlikely that I am Rosenberg, unless of course, Mr. Rosenberg sneaked onto my computer during a get-together at my apartment. You've mentioned this "federal laws" and "lawsuits" before, and I'm not sure where you're getting it. It may have been in the older edits you kept deleting, but in the rewrite that I did, I don't mention any legal action, pending, threatened, or otherwise. Anyway, the information in the rewrite comes entirely from independent, non-primary sources. So unless you're willing to question the credibility of JTA or the Forward or PR Week, I'm not sure how much you can question the content. You're more than free to do so at Talk:5W Public Relations, obviously. --Mosmof (talk) 15:22, 16 July 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.173.122.113 ( talk)

Hi Jezhotwells. Thanks for the update, I'll just review it, as part of the GA review drive. The nomination was not shown as Under Review on the project page and neither was the "review" transcluded on the article's talk page, but there was a "review" Talk:Early life of Pedro II of Brazil/GA1 of a kind.

Thank you for sending me the Introduction. Your help is greatly appreciated! I do not want to overstep my bounds but I wanted to ask you my question and if you can help or suggest anything to me I would be very grateful.
I am new to adding/editing pages and recently I added my first page. (Here is a link to that page:)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profile_of_Herbert_Adams_(Sculptor)
The "page" is for a book that I am using as a reference to update an existing page on Herbert Adams, Sculptor. The book is called Profile of Herbert Adams written by Marilyn Gage Hyson. As I am new and trying my best to follow the rules I have come upon a stumbling block that I can't figure out. A member of Wikipedia proposed that the entry be deleted because I had not provided references. I have added 3 references, but now I am unsure how to remove the request that the entry be deleted.
Respectfully,

Hi, I noticed your comments on my GA review of Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough and wanted to comment. Regarding alternate text for images, I realize that it's not a GA requirement, but I also realize that I'm just one reviewer who is likely to miss things about the article about the article that could be improved. I don't believe in saying "it's just a GA, so we'll let it slide" if the fix is simple - it doesn't take much time to add them in, and the purpose is to improve Wikipedia by improving the article, so why let small things go?

Thanks, Jeshotweels, for taking on the GA review. I've had a careful look at your comments and generally find them very useful and constructive. I see Hoary has already made a good start on some of them and I hope to be able to find the time to take care of most of the rest within a day or too. There is however one comment of yours which I think will be difficult to deal with, namely "There is no underlying theme, apart from the Danish connection. I am not getting any real feel for the subject. There is little about the development of the photography industry in Denmark, apart from its beginnings." I am not too clear about how I should deal with this. The article was intended, rightly or wrongly, to trace the development of photography in Denmark as an art form rather than as an industry. To the best of my knowledge, apart from the presence of an Agfa Gevaert factory (one of many) in Copenhagen for a number of years, there has been no photography industry in Denmark. Indeed, none of the many sources I have found make any reference to the industry side. Perhaps an explanation along these lines in the lead would help to assist the reader. Any suggestions? -- Ipigott ( talk) 09:17, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Arthur Rubin's opinion of Dr. Jones is contrary to Wikipedia's definition of Professor Emeritus as "A full professor who retires in good standing."
The Wikipedia public does not care what Arthur thinks of Dr. Jones. It is inappropriate to put in Wikipedia. It does not follow the principles: Be Polite, Assume Good Faith, Avoid Personal Attacks, or Be Welcoming.
Arthur Rubin needs to find a source from a BYU Administrator that contradicts his status as Professor Emeritus, retiring in good standing, which only the best professors do. Most simply retire. Cicorp ( talk) 23:04, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
Dear Jezhotwells
Thank you so much for your comments, very helpful. I had no idea this was the case. I am confused though what to do now?
The account can be edited by an independent journalist who does not know the person, however in the conflict of interest notes, it states in the Wikipedia rules that "The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing."
You suggest that another user name/person is used but it states above that another person cannot edit the account...or am I reading this incorrectly?
Please advise urgently.

Dear Jezhotwells
As this is such a public forum, I refer to the named person's living biography whom we are discussing. Please understand not everyone is prolific in the use of Wikipedia editing. The named person's wiki page has been up for years without any problems!! Correct information as it pertains to a living person's date of birth, early life, especially if it is not in Europe and in Africa where most traditional/family history is NOT documented,and is passed from generation to generation via oral history, correct historical information has to be collected by interview also from the named living person. I am happy to pass the editing of this person's page the a third party, however all the content on the named person's biography is correct and nothing would be changed. The named person's early life, ancestry in Ghana is correct, however there are limited written histories on Royal African families and most people get their information now from the internet AND use Wiki as a reliable source. I am quite frustrated what to do as the page now looks discredited whilst only a few changes were added (date of birth) and early childhood African ancestry. Please advise as it looks terrible as it stands and quite honestly, hours and hours can be spent trying to understand Wikipedia rules and jargon - I hope you can understand and be of assistance. Thank you.

Hi Jezhotwells, I believe that any FA should represent the best WP has to offer. As such, any technical claims must be properly researched and presented.

There are still about 30 articles currently on hold, and once those reviews are completed, I will send you a final message about Sweeps process stats including the total number of articles that were passed and failed. If you have one of these open reviews, be sure to update your count when the review is completed so I can compile the stats. You can except to receive your award for reviewing within the next week or two. Although the majority of the editors did not start Sweeps at the beginning in August 2007 (myself included), over 50 editors have all come together to complete a monumental task and improve many articles in the process. I commend you for sticking with this often challenging task and strengthening the integrity of the GA WikiProject as well as the GAs themselves. I invite you to take a break from reviewing (don't want you to burn out!) and then consider returning/starting to review GANs and/or contribute to GAR reviews. With your assistance, we can help bring the backlog down to a manageable level and help inspire more editors to improve articles to higher classes and consider reviewing themselves.

I am looking to put up a personal page for each member of the international multiplatinum rock band The Killers (Island Def Jam Records, 15 million records+ sold). One of them (lead singer) has a page, the other three do not yet (they were deleted each time). These members each perform interviews for various international publications. They each have fan groups and they have each been featured for their superior talent at their instruments in internationally published (ie. 'Bass Guitar Magazine' cover June 2009, 'Bass Player' Magazine, 'Drummer' Magazine cover June 2009, 'Rhythm Magazine', 'Modern Drummer' Magazine, 'Drumhead Magazine', and 'Guitarist' Magazine May 2009, etc) magazines. What do I need to do to restore/write wikipedia pages for these guys? I am more than happy to have my proposed pages approved by a wikipedia staff member. I am sure that you will find that they meet all standards for personal pages. Below I have written some of the publications that each can be seen in individually. The actual publications I can provide sources for or they can be found also at the painstakingly collected www.thekillersfansite.com. I can find many more publications like these if needed.

Below are links to the starts of each of their articles--can you please restore these? I will polish them up to specks if you will do that.

Hi jezhotwells, thanks for your recent feedback and guidance on the BT:musician article that I've been monitoring for awhile. I'm starting to get the hang of what is wanted/expected and think I will start branching out and doing updates to other electronica musicians. I'm looking for some feedback and guidance on the recent edits I've made. Would you mind looking at my contributions to some other album/biography pages and let me know if my edits were reasonable and justified? It seems that many blp articles to electronic musicians are in a sad state. Thanks! Fctchkr ( talk) 03:37, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Emerald silhouette logo1.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

I much preferred the DYK without the explanation as to what a Bristol Diamond is/was. You have lost, in my view, a bit of the 'hookiness' (mystique) by way of the explanation. I bet you would get more hits if you left the wording more obscure. Just my thoughts - POV and all that. Regards,

While I understand your concern regarding the images in the Ram Loevy article and associated articles, rest assured that I am aware of the concerns regarding Free Images, and was perfectly clear to Mr. Loevy what that means when I insisted that the only images that he could send me must be released under a free--and not fair use--license. I may not be a popular Wikipedian these days, but considering my long past with WMF (you can ask around about that), I have always been an advocate--in an official and unofficial capacity--of the inclusion of "free" images only--you can ask Kat about that. In fact, I was very proud of being able to get these images released under a specifically free license. Nevertheless, I understand your concerns and have sent an email to Mr. Loevy asking him to clarify his position. I should have it tomorrow and will then forward it to OTRS.

I'd like my information restored. How do I do that?

Re: Shaheera Asante Living Biography Page Thanks for all your assistance and fairness so far. Due to the 'conflict of interest' banner still remaining on this person's Biography page, can the subject's biography page be temporarily removed, until a new up to date biography page can be written in its place?
The subject of the biography has expressed distress at the current state of the biography. Which I believe is not the purpose of Wikipedia.

Dear Markussep,
After the Odorhei discussion ( [6]) the status quo for Transylvanian places was that the artice name is Romanian, if Hungarian population <20%, in the infobox both Romanian and Hungarian names should be indicated, and also in the lead both Romanian and Hungarian names should be bolded.
About two weeks ago, an editor called User: Iadrian yu supported by absolutely new editors User:Dicocodino, User:Umumu, User:Amon Koth (the latter 3 with zero or close to zero edits) started a campaign against this situation referring to general naming policies.
They were looking for discuss resolution forums trying to find a favourable opinion for them ie. deleting bolded Hungarian names. You and User:Markussep gave them a negative opinion at here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:S%C4%83rma%C5%9Fu (Nagysármás)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Editor_assistance/Requests/Archive_73 (Nagysármás)
Then, on 23rd, March User: Iadrian yu started to delete bolded Hungarian names from every settlement of Harghita, Covasna and Mures country making masses of deletes.
Finally, they found an admin User:Mjroots who decided in their favor as a result of a dispute in which a very few people took place (most of them zero a close to zero edits), and neither you nor User:Jezhotwells were notified although I asked the admin to do so. (ruling here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive605)
What do you think about it? How the Odorhei-compromise which worked for 3 years can be overthrown like this. Is this the way of consensus building and dispute resolution?
I think in this case Myroots made a very big mistake, but, I seem unable to explain the situation it to him as an interested party. I am very dissapointed at how things work now. Kind regards: User:Rokarudi--Rokarudi 17:22, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

This is from Mosmof on the talk page - Has something changed since then ???? P
Please read - Quote re Torossian... Has something changed ?
I've actually removed mention of the rabbi impersonation from here and moved it to the 5W page, since none of the media reports connect Ronn with the incident directly - as far as reliable sources can tell, it was an indiscretion by the firm, not Ronn. So we can move the discussion to the talk page there: Talk:5W Public Relations. No, I'm not willing to identify myself, and attempting to out me is against Wiki policy (well, except when there's clear evidence of COI, of course). All I can say is that I have an extensive edit history where Agriprocessor- or Torossian-related topics constitute a tiny, tiny percentage. So it's highly unlikely that I am Rosenberg, unless of course, Mr. Rosenberg sneaked onto my computer during a get-together at my apartment. You've mentioned this "federal laws" and "lawsuits" before, and I'm not sure where you're getting it. It may have been in the older edits you kept deleting, but in the rewrite that I did, I don't mention any legal action, pending, threatened, or otherwise. Anyway, the information in the rewrite comes entirely from independent, non-primary sources. So unless you're willing to question the credibility of JTA or the Forward or PR Week, I'm not sure how much you can question the content. You're more than free to do so at Talk:5W Public Relations, obviously. --Mosmof (talk) 15:22, 16 July 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.173.122.113 ( talk)

Thank you for sending me the Introduction. Your help is greatly appreciated! I do not want to overstep my bounds but I wanted to ask you my question and if you can help or suggest anything to me I would be very grateful.
I am new to adding/editing pages and recently I added my first page. (Here is a link to that page:)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profile_of_Herbert_Adams_(Sculptor)
The "page" is for a book that I am using as a reference to update an existing page on Herbert Adams, Sculptor. The book is called Profile of Herbert Adams written by Marilyn Gage Hyson. As I am new and trying my best to follow the rules I have come upon a stumbling block that I can't figure out. A member of Wikipedia proposed that the entry be deleted because I had not provided references. I have added 3 references, but now I am unsure how to remove the request that the entry be deleted.

Hi, I noticed your comments on my GA review of Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough and wanted to comment. Regarding alternate text for images, I realize that it's not a GA requirement, but I also realize that I'm just one reviewer who is likely to miss things about the article about the article that could be improved. I don't believe in saying "it's just a GA, so we'll let it slide" if the fix is simple - it doesn't take much time to add them in, and the purpose is to improve Wikipedia by improving the article, so why let small things go?

Thanks, Jeshotweels, for taking on the GA review. I've had a careful look at your comments and generally find them very useful and constructive. I see Hoary has already made a good start on some of them and I hope to be able to find the time to take care of most of the rest within a day or too. There is however one comment of yours which I think will be difficult to deal with, namely "There is no underlying theme, apart from the Danish connection. I am not getting any real feel for the subject. There is little about the development of the photography industry in Denmark, apart from its beginnings." I am not too clear about how I should deal with this. The article was intended, rightly or wrongly, to trace the development of photography in Denmark as an art form rather than as an industry. To the best of my knowledge, apart from the presence of an Agfa Gevaert factory (one of many) in Copenhagen for a number of years, there has been no photography industry in Denmark. Indeed, none of the many sources I have found make any reference to the industry side. Perhaps an explanation along these lines in the lead would help to assist the reader.

THey will be though, in the next week or so (see reviewer's talkpage). - Jarry1250 Humorous? Discuss. 16:34, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
I ran down through the remainder of your checklist, and have completed the following...

Hi. First, I want to thank you for helping put on the backlog drive. It has inspired me to organize a similar drive with the Guild of Copy Editors as they have an 8000 article backlog for copyediting. I've cloned the page, but I don't know how to set up the statistics reporting that you did, which is fantastic, by the way. Can you tell me how to go about doing that?

Hello Jezhotwells,
I'm part of the student group that is working on the Alejo Carpentier biography page and just wanted to thank you for reviewing the article and for the feedback, it's insanely helpful. We'll clean up our act and resubmit!
Thanks again!-- Josiemitchell ( talk) 21:25, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I saw that on Whtie Shadows's talk page. With some searching, I came upon a source list for uboat.net located here. I jwant to know if that asserts realiability, since I'm awork on German submarine U-66(1940). Hope to her from you soon! Buggie111 ( talk) 22:10, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
What a coincidence! That FA has the same number as the ship I'm about to work on! Buggie111 ( talk) 23:27, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for the review. Further to your comments, I've scoured the article, performed a general copy-edit, and cut down some information from the relevant part of the "Casting" section. On the "charm" of the puppets, that was slight misinterpretation of the sources, which refer to "caricature" against realism. All issues raised so far seem addressed.
