Hello. I wonder whether I could ask you to take a quick look at a page I have been working on with a couple other members of the martial arts sub-project. The subject of the page is 7th degree red-and-black belt Carlos "Caique" Elias. You can find the article at Wikipedia:Article Incubator/Carlos "Caique" Elias -- I think that the article is ready to leave incubation and go into mainspace, but the rules discourage significant contributors from promoting their own articles to mainspace. I'd really like to see more details on ALL of the red and black belts in wikipedia, since there are not that many of them. Thanks! Thechadl ( talk) 05:01, 20 March 2012 (UTC) reply

Hey, thanks for reviewing. I think it's good to go as-is, just need someone other than me to click the "Move to mainspace" link at the top of the article at this point. Thechadl ( talk) 06:07, 20 March 2012 (UTC) reply

Not important just stubborn :) there was a bit of an issue with BJJ blue belt claiming to be a big name and self-promoting and he took particular offence to me. See my archives for the fun & games...

The article Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu ranking system you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu ranking system for things which need to be addressed.

Thank you sir. This was my first time nominating an article for GA status and I'm unfortunately only now discovering that copy-editing should be done before nomination due to the backlog. It's a pity that as primary, almost sole writer of the article I probably can't do much of the copy-edit work myself as my eye for good prose is evidently quite limited. I'll do what I can and thank you again for reviewing. Buddy23Lee ( talk) 19:06, 1 August 2012 (UTC) reply

The article Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu ranking system you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu ranking system for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Kürbis ( ✔) 10:37, 26 August 2012 (UTC) reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu ranking system, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Grandmaster ( check to confirm |  fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi, Buddy23Lee, I'm beginning he copy-edit you requested to the above article at the GOCE Request page. please feel free to contact me, or the correct or revert my edits if I'm doing something I shouldn't. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 ( talk) 01:06, 14 November 2012 (UTC) reply

Done - I've done a general tidy up and fixed some problems with the references; also added some {{when}} and {{who}}templates to indicate attribution and date identification problems. I also have doubts that some f the references are up to reliable source standards, but I didn't investigate further. I'd recommend getting a Peer Review before nominating for GA status. Please feel free to contact me about any issues arising from the copy-edit. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 ( talk) 06:16, 14 November 2012 (UTC) reply

Thank you so much for your time and efforts! Not that I'm probably one to be judging your content but from everything I've seen it looks just great. In the past there were some issues with the copy editing changing some of the essential ideas and meaning of the text and that doesn't look to be a problem this time around. I appreciate the suggestions and will endeavor to improve the article reference-wise. Thanks again! :) Buddy23Lee ( talk) 19:30, 14 November 2012 (UTC) reply
