Hi Dan56. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr ( talk) 08:09, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

Dan56, I've added some more reviews from the UK press – feel free to edit or delete as you wish. I'm not happy about the position of the 2009 reviews, for instance: I think they're better off going in the ratings table, but there's no room for them there... just out of interest, are you opposed to the use of two tables, for contemporary and legacy reviews?
Two other things: the reception section states that the album was record of the year in "numerous" English publications... well, apart from NME and Melody Maker (where it was joint first, actually), I can't find any other publications where it was the outright winner, so perhaps that word "numerous" needs to go. Also, do you not see "Hell Is Around the Corner" as the album's fifth single? Obviously it wasn't in its original form and formed part of a remix EP, but I still think it's a single from the album, nevertheless. I also have dates for all the single releases, if you want them added in. Richard3120 ( talk) 20:28, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
Hello. First, I want to say good luck with your FAC for The Ecstatic. I was wondering if you could help with my FAC for " Did You Hear What Happened to Charlotte King?" as I would really appreciate any comments or feedback on this nomination, especially from an experienced user like yourself. I know this is outside of your field of interest so I understand if you are too busy or not interested. I apologize for any inconvenience.

During a recent lengthy discussion on the WP:FAC talkpage, several ideas were put forward as to how this procedure could be improved, particularly in making it more user-friendly towards first-time nominees. The promotion rate for first-timers at FAC is depressingly low – around 16 percent – which is a cause for concern. To help remedy this, Mike Christie and I, with the co-operation of the FAC coordinators, have devised a voluntary mentoring scheme, in which newcomers will guided by more experienced editors through the stages of preparation and submission of their articles. The general format of the scheme is explained in more detail on Wikipedia: Mentoring for FAC, which also includes a list of editors who have indicated that they are prepared to act as mentors.
Would you be prepared to take on this role occasionally? If so, please add your name to the list. By doing so you incur no obligation; it will be entirely for you to decide how often and on which articles you want to act in this capacity. We anticipate that the scheme will have a trial run for a few months before we appraise its effectiveness. Your participation will be most welcome. Brianboulton ( talk) 17:04, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

Hey Dan, when you were doing the critical reception of Metallica, you haven't included the Allmusic review in the prose. Can you do that these days? Thanks in advance. Also, are there any other contemporary reviews we've missed?-- Retrohead ( talk) 08:17, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
