 * It was nice to meet you. You asked me to look over your Wikipedia editing and give comment, because you wondered about the quality of your contributions.
 * I looked at Ernesto Rossi (gangster). You started this article, and you did a great job. You established notability by finding one newspaper which talks about this person's criminal history, and another two years later when this person was shot by police for criminal activity. Presenting information tied to sources is the least that should be done in Wikipedia. Beyond that, you navigated Wikipedia's upload system and correctly placed a picture of this person into the article. You correctly noted that the picture was copyrighted but that you were doing fair use of it. You used an infobox for biographical information. When you were developing this article, you made it in your sandbox as private space for you to develop it on your own time, and when you were ready to share, you moved it into the article space where it has been further processed by others. In seeing all this, it is my opinion that you did everything that Wikipedia is designed to allow people to do. The only thing I regret in this is not your fault, and that is I wish someone would have noted that you were a new user who made a good article and told you hello. You passed the threshold beyond which someone usually greets a new user, but that did not happen in your case, and you got no feedback.
 * You also made the article Bloomberg Global Identifier. I left comments on this at Talk:Bloomberg_Global_Identifier.
 * You translated information into English from the Polish article on Białobrzegi. You particularly translated data. This is useful; it is a weakness of Wikipedia to migrate information between languages. What you did was entirely correct, but you may have noticed that Wikipedia's presentation of the data that you shared was weak. As I told you, in the near future, we hope that Wikidata can centrally store these kinds of figures and propagate them out to all languages so that individuals do not have to translate them for each language. What you did was good, but we need that for every city and language, so of course we need automation. Since you did this manually you must be seeing the problem that not everything can be done manually, and our automation tools are not functional yet.
 * I could say more, or you could ask questions here. Thanks for sharing with me and the rest of Wikipedia.  Blue Rasberry   (talk)  12:19, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
