Featured list candidates/List of Peep Show episodes
I've responded to your comments. I didn't quite carry out the changes you recommended, but they still give the same result (rather than changing the text colour, I changed the table row colour so they are now all white). Also, the episodes don't have titles. ISD (talk) 09:12, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Featured list candidates/BBC Young Musician of the Year
You have requested on the above page that we link to all the instruments and school names more than once. Linking more than once is not necessary at all, partially because it looks untidy. The linking of the instruments is also not necessary, per WP:CONTEXT. Qst (talk) 12:41, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I just wanted to check and see if you had a chance to revisit the list and if you had any additional comments for the FLC? Collectonian (talk) 05:21, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I have revisited, and I have no other comments. I'm going through the FLC page now, adding more comments, supports etc to the nominations and I am getting there. While we're on the subject, Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Degrassi: The Next Generation (season 3) is dragging on a bit, and any comments there that you could give, I would appreciate. I know you edit some Degrassi pages, but this one you haven't so I don't think a conflict of interest would be an issue. Thanks in advance (if you do review). -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 05:30, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi Matthew

As all your comments appear to be addressed, would you now be prepared to support the article's promotion.........? ChrisTheDude (talk) 06:53, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * As a personal rule I don't usually support/oppose based solely on the fact that my comments have been addressed. I usually wait for others to review just in case I missed anything, and see how and if their comments are addressed. I promise I will make a decision closer to the end of the 10 day period, though. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 06:57, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

List of Scripps National Spelling Bee champions
Hey Matthew, I've added some comments at the FLC, it's a nice list (spelling bees, how weird are they for us Brits to understand the appeal!)... let me know when you're done with them. All the best. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:13, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I know! At home we just used to do 15 question written spelling tests once a week in English. Here they home school kids so they can focus on the spelling. I have to say though, I watched the final for the first time last year, and it was incredibly nailbiting! I just felt sorry for the kids who came in 4th, 3rd and 2nd.. I just imagined them getting home and their parents telling them they were such failures and slapping them around the house! Especially when they lost to this kid: http://dcist.com/2007/06/06/spelling_bee_wi.php -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 20:07, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Degrassi:TNG GA
Your welcome with regards to the review. The "reasonably well written" is part of the template I use when reviewing GANs, and in this case does not give the quality of the article justice. I don't think you'll have a problem with regards to that at FAC. Also, you'll be pleased to know that I am passing the article, and will be doing the appropriate work to promote the article on the talk page shortly. Regards, -MBK004 23:32, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Thankyou. Would you suggest a Peer review before a FA nom? -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 23:33, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It certainly wouldn't hurt, but it is up to you. Personally, I believe this article is ready for FAC as-is, but as I've said, it's your choice. -MBK004 00:04, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

 * I gave it a conditional support, and that condition was met. As far as I'm concerned, nothing needs changing on my part, although I will strike the word "conditional" if you want? -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 02:58, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Thanks! Did you get a chance to look at the two FLC to comment there, too? -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 19:15, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Indeed, am going through them now. I can only comment on prose and references, though, because I'm unfamiliar with all the technical requirements of tables and so on for lists. This is the main reason why I write so few comments on the FLC pages, because there's more table than text! I'll give it my best shot though. PeterSymonds | talk  19:17, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

List of public universities in North Carolina
Hello, thank you for the comments to this article. I have a few specific questions, that I would like to ask.
 * You wrote: "As does Image:Www.uncfsu.jpg, Image:NCCU seal.gif, Image:Uncwlogo.gif, Image:WCU Seal.gif, and Image:Athletic ram color full.jpg. Some of them don't have any rationale and will find themselves deleted eventually."
 * I added Non-free/fair use image rationale for List of public universities in North Carolina to each one. Does this satisfy everything?
 * You wrote:"The free images should be moved over to the Commons"
 * So I should transfer all of the other photos to Commons, than transfer them back?
 * You wrote:"With the number of non-free images in use, it fails to meet the third criteria, and the remaining images, while looking nice, are so small that they're not worth including anyway."
 * Should I just delete the photo column? If the column does get deleted, would this help change your opinion on FL worthiness?

That is everything for right now. Photos are not my strong suit on Wikipedia, so I am still trying to learn everything about them. Please respond either on the FLC page, or on my talkpage. Thanks, PGPirate 00:31, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I think I am going to yank the photo column, with the hopes that it can be replaced, once fixed. Can the UNC System seal stay?  Thanks, PG</b><b style="color:black">Pirate</b> 00:56, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

The GimmeBot handles some tasks, such as adding the closure box and updating the article history, you just have to wait for Gimmetrow to come online and run it (he's usually on in the evening, so it'll likely be done within a few hours). As for the mathematics list, I saw there was some movement but I figured there were quite a few large issues, but I'll reopen it since it hasn't yet been officially closed. -- Scorpion0422 19:51, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
