 * Of course. If you want to start a new section on a talk page, click on the "New Section" tab at the top. Also once you have made a comment if you add ~ to the end of it it will sign the post. What exactly are you trying to do on your user-page?-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 20:07, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Basically, the starting word (Word:Page) tells the reader what namespace the page is in. It says User: at the top of yours to show it is a user page for a wikipedian, if you look, it also says it at the top of mine.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 20:21, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

 * I'm sorry, I didn't realise someone was working on it. If you would like to add a top hook, do so, or if not I was going to add the panoramic photo from Template:Did you know nominations/Gardens of Stone National Park.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 21:34, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

DYK for The Blasphemers' Banquet
Hi Gilderien. Sorry about that but I have realised that the hook for The Blasphemers' Banquet currently on prep 4 could benefit from adding a wikilink to the word "controversy" to point to the actual controversy article. Could you therefore modify the word "controversy" by adding the wikilink: controversy ? Thank you and sorry for the trouble. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις  00:33, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * No problem, I've added the link :-) -- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 07:19, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. :) Take care. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις  14:45, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

How is this review going? Hawkeye7 (talk) 07:51, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, I've had exams this week. I have one more next week but I think I should have enough time this afternoon to have a look at it.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 15:13, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I am in no hurry, and it would be more convenient for me if this dragged on a bit, so take your time. I was just checking that it had not been forgotten. Hawkeye7 (talk) 20:41, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/R. Nataraja Mudaliar
The reviewer passed the nom with ALT2, but it looks like the article is ready for the main page display with the original hook. &mdash; Vensatry (Ping me)  07:55, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I have swapped the hook.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 15:13, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Edit conflict
I already promoted Template:Did you know nominations/A Christmas Story, The Musical. Gatoclass (talk) 16:37, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Ah, ok, I shall remove it from the set I am building. Thanks for notifying me.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 16:40, 8 June 2013 (UTC)


 * No problem :) Gatoclass (talk) 16:44, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Any reason why you didn't use one of the topical Tony Award hooks in your new set? Gatoclass (talk) 17:00, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * *facepalm* I removed the one I had added when you said you have promoted it, but forgot to replace it. I'll do that when the next set is approved so I can transfer a hook to the empty queue.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 17:08, 8 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I promoted a couple of updates in case you'd like some room to build more sets BTW. Gatoclass (talk) 17:24, 8 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Oh ok thanks sounds good.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 17:47, 8 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Why did you ignore the date request when building Template:Did you know/Preparation area 2?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:36, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Do you know that Prep 2 is the hook that will be on the main page when the 67th Tony Awards actually air. Are you not going to put any of the date request hooks in this Prep area?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:40, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Woah, cool it. If you read the above conversation, you would see it was because I put one in, but Gatoclass had already decided to use it in another set, but not promoted the hook nom page, so I removed it and forgot to replace it. I would have already swapped lead hooks if I hadn't been edit-conflicted three times. I'm now building prep 3.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 17:47, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

DYK prep areas
Gilderien, I wanted to give you a heads up about putting together DYK prep areas. These are covered in the various DYK rules pages, but aren't always easy to find.
 * 1) No more than half of the entries should be bios (this means a maximum of three in a seven-slot prep area), and two bios should not be adjacent.
 * 2) With the exception of the US, which is subject to the same "no more than half" rule, generally only have one hook per country per prep set. (Sometimes the UK has two, but rarely.)
 * 3) Generally, similar hooks should not appear sequentially, so bios should not be adjacent, US hooks should also not be sequential, etc.

The reason I mention this is that the current Prep 2 has four bios in a row, and three of them are Singapore-related, also in a row. We just had a discussion on the recent influx of Singaporean hooks on the DYK talk page (WT:DYK), so putting even two in a single set is excessive.

Thanks! BlueMoonset (talk) 19:27, 8 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, thank you very much. I was aware of the rules but was rather stuck with finding any approved hooks so I wasn't really paying as much attention to selection topic as I should have. Obviously, having three singapore hooks consecutively is inacceptable, so thanks for bringing this to my attention, I shall do some shuffling with the prep sets.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 19:34, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Prep 3

 * You just filled Template:Did you know/Preparation area 3‎ without including one of the date request hooks after saying you didn't need to be reminded. What gives?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 20:30, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I know. I was just filling the prep areas with hooks so they could be shuffled around if need be. As I said, they shall be included before it is promoted, I got called away before I could fill up another prep set but I can do that now.-- Gilderien Chat&#124;List of good deeds 20:45, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
