Dr. Octagonecologyst
The article has received a thorough copyedit. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind taking another look at it? (Ibaranoff24 (talk) 08:56, 2 April 2009 (UTC))
 * Have you had another look at the article after its recent copyedit? (Ibaranoff24 (talk) 19:45, 6 April 2009 (UTC))
 * Hello again. You didn't respond to my last question. The article has underwent another copyedit. Have you had time to take another look at it? (Ibaranoff24 (talk) 23:43, 11 April 2009 (UTC))


 * Discogs only refers to Mo' Wax issuing the album as a triple LP. To phrase it to state that the label only issued the album that way might read a bit clunky. (Ibaranoff24 (talk) 20:29, 12 April 2009 (UTC))


 * I rewrote the CD/Double LP/Triple LP sentence, since it was a bit awkward. Do you have any other specific areas you've noticed need improvement? I become wary when you state you have concerns about the prose style. Changing the voice in which an article is written of course needs a rewrite of the entire article; with a FAC I would first want to discuss it with everyone involved. This could certainly take longer than the FAC process allows. So, while keeping the current style, can you spotlight any other areas which need attention? RevZoe (talk) 16:08, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Re: Riven
Thanks. I have to admit, I haven't actually played the game... just watched all gajillion video walkthroughs on YouTube :P I have to agree though; taken together the games have a nice arc, but in particular Riven just has more gravity (I think in part due to the superb music.) Happy editing, -- Der Wohltempierte Fuchs ( talk ) 13:48, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Only ever played Myst and Exile, but Revelation did look a tad kooky to me and from watching the vids for End of Ages I didn't think it had a very good ending, unfortunately. Oh wells, I still got FAs out of them :P -- Der Wohltempierte Fuchs ( talk ) 15:37, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Lisa the Vegetarian
That would be great, thank you! :) I was actually going to ask you to do it a while ago because you did such a good work on the Sideshow Bob and Phil Hartman articles, but then I noticed that you weren't accepting copyedit requests anymore. :P Cheers,  The Le ft orium  18:40, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Heh, indeed it does! :)  The Le ft orium  21:01, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Sure. I'll let you know when he's done. :)  The Le ft orium  19:19, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Peer review of Bale Out
recommended you as a good peer reviewer - I have nominated the article Bale Out for a peer review, and if you have time I'd most appreciate comments at the subpage, Peer review/Bale Out/archive1. Thank you for your time, Cirt (talk) 06:00, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much for the response, and no rush / no worries as to a timeframe on it. Cheers, Cirt (talk) 10:39, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Reminder, as requested . :P Cirt (talk) 13:28, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * No worries, take your time. Nice thing about peer reviews is that they are not time dependent, as opposed to some of the other steps along the quality ladder. :) Cirt (talk) 14:59, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Friday reminder :P Cirt (talk) 12:36, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanksomuch! Cirt (talk) 19:07, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Free Produce
Nice work with Cousin Betty! That article is cruisin' for a GAR, followed in short order by FAR. Deux pouces vers le haut! Heh heh...

Completely unrelated is my newest work, Free produce movement, an abolitionist subject. I am wondering whether the 'p' should be capitalized... can you tell me your opinion? Any other insights? I feel tapped out on the article—I don't have any more material in mind right now. Binksternet (talk) 20:37, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Leftover redirects?
If you like, I can delete these leftover redirects that are not in use. Just let me know (if not, some need to be updated as their targets were deleted) too late but I can restore them –xeno talk  21:08, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

 * So long as people displaying those userboxes don't end up with ugly code instead of the boxes they were expecting, feel free to delete the redirects. Thanks for looking into it. Scartol  •  Tok  20:16, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

MemChu revisited
Hey Scar, how's it goin'? I've gone back to Stanford Memorial Church in order to bring it to FAC. Over the weekend (hope you had a nice Easter!) I added some content about its architecture. Would you mind taking another gander, especially the Architecture section? I'm afraid that my lack of knowledge about the subject has affected the section. In addition to elicting your help, I'm gonna find some experts, like I did with the Organ section. Do you think that Awadewit would take a look, even though lit is her thing? Thanks. --Christine (talk) 14:02, 13 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Awadewit is now finished with her review, thought you'd like to know. I've finished addressing her comments, so you can end your holding pattern.  Go have at it!  No hurries, though; I know you're busy. --Christine (talk) 18:33, 20 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi again. So whatcha think?  Are we ready for FAC?  Awadewit seems to think so, but I wanted your final approval before we move forward. ;) Now that I've finished creating the most recent Angelou article, I have time to devote to another FAC.  Thanks, and here's hoping for a free swine-flu spring. ;) --Christine (talk) 17:08, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
