ACR or FAC?
Hi, and thanks again for the review of Adys. I have just been browsing through your latest GA, which led me to skim Dobro Pole and Vardar; Sarantaporo I am already familiar with. They are all very good. Is there any reason why you haven't nominated any of them for ACR - or worked them up for FAC? In any event, can I encourage you to; these are high quality articles. Gog the Mild (talk) 17:24, 2 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Dobro Pole and Vardar need a lot of work, I crammed all the refs at the end of each paragraph because I was lazy and now one of the main sources is locked in a no lending library which is closed because of the pandemic. The main Arachova source is likewise in a locked library. Sarantaporo I might consider nominating. How different is ACR compared to GAN strictness wise?--Catlemur (talk) 18:17, 2 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Roughly, ACR requires full MoS compliance; the standard of English needs to be a little better; "neglects no major facts or details" (which is tougher than GAN's "addresses the main aspects of the topic"). In other words, not that tough for a well written GA. And the reviewers are usually fairly friendly and helpful. Gog the Mild (talk) 18:25, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Not explicit, but my impression, is that for ACR or FAC more would be expected in terms of background or "scene setting"; and for aftermath or consequences. Again, a respectable GA may well be most or all of the way there.
 * If you need The Battle of Dobro Pole, 1918 by Richard Hall I could send you a pdf version. And this may be useful if you don't already have access. Dobro Pole doesn't look that far off ACR, on a skim; although your citations and references need work . Gog the Mild (talk) 18:47, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Alright, I will nominate Sarandaporo for ACR, since I just reworked the articles for the two battles that followed it.--Catlemur (talk) 20:28, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Would you like me to give it a copy edit first? Gog the Mild (talk) 20:45, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
 * You are more than welcome.--Catlemur (talk) 21:41, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

Milhist article contest - Battle of Magnesia
Hi there, I have started checking the entries in the article contest and noted a potential issue with your Battle of Magnesia entry. It appears to have started the month as a C-Class article according to the Milhist class criteria, not start class as was stated in the scoreboard (although it was a start class according to the WP Greece Project). I have adjusted the scores accordingly but thought I would let you know in case I am missing something here. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 09:10, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
