 * I will conduct this review. epicgenius (talk) 16:02, 5 November 2017 (UTC)


 * In the first hook, it is unclear who "he" is in this quote: whose inscription thanked him for all his work. According to the article, "he" is the publisher. Anyway, I suggest this change to ALT0. Otherwise, I think ALTs 0/2 are more interesting than ALT1.Or, you could suggest a different rewording. epicgenius (talk) 16:02, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for conducting this review :) Now, what do you actually mean, ALTS 0/2?! &mdash;  fortuna  velut luna  16:48, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I meant either ALT 0 or 2. I think ALT2 is more clear than ALT0. Do you want to go with ALT0 anyway? epicgenius (talk) 17:09, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
 * No problems, #2 is fine, what eve you think best :) many thanks! &mdash;  fortuna  velut luna  17:23, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Confirm ping to - that one ****ed right up. &mdash; fortuna  velut luna  17:24, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
 * I guess ALT2 is clearer, so I'll just go and Symbol confirmed.svg approve that. Nice work on that article, BTW. epicgenius (talk) 17:46, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
