DYK nomination of Paige (wrestler)
Hello! Your submission of Paige (wrestler) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Storye book (talk) 09:19, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for the alert, yet I'm not the nominator, that's FairyTailRocks. I might be able to improve the article maybe 18 hours from now, but I'm afraid the QPQ has to be done by . starship.paint   "YES!" 13:52, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I have messaged FairyTailRocks. --Storye book (talk) 19:35, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

Money in the Bank
Hi Starship.paint! I'd be happy to read through the article and offer comments, but I won't get too involved as I'd like to be able to !vote at the next FAC. :)  ceran  thor 17:59, 13 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Are you satisfied with the copyedit? If so, I'll archive your request. All the best,  Mini  apolis  23:10, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Firstly, thanks for the copy-edit,.
 * Secondly,, I really have no idea whether the article is satisfactory. I've contributed the most text to the article, so naturally the prose seemed fine to me even before the copy-edit. It was another user who said the prose was clunky. Could you give your opinion instead? starship  .paint   ~ regal  09:15, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm in the middle of another copyedit, but will leave a request for a double-check on the requests page; it takes a while to learn the ropes of copyediting. All the best,  Mini  apolis  13:34, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Much appreciated :)  starship  .paint   ~ regal  13:44, 30 August 2014 (UTC)

Invisible
Returning to memory lane, after the successful DYK mentioned above, did you know that I wrote about something invisible? (almost as many hits as when it appeared on DYK, and there's another day) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:17, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I would say that the DYK hook was excellent, because it didn't actually explain what an invisible rail was. Naturally, people are going to be curious and want to find out. Is there something else which is invisible that I missed? Anyway, I think it's enough DYKs for me now (but one is being nominated by another user). I just wanted to get DYKs for my newly created articles, and that's done. Only an FA left, I guess. starship  .paint   ~ regal  14:18, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Nice "which is" ;) - That 2011 hook was excellent, only I couldn't copy it now because in German the bird's name is not "Invisible" but "Drummer". It's planned here as TFA on 1 April 2015. - I miss the excellent DYK author. He left a few days after that DYK, did you know? (It was the one time that I screamed.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:32, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the German name is a missed opportunity. 1 April would certainly be a hot date for jokes! Sad about that editor. But sometimes I wonder, why do some established editors (I don't mean BlueMoonset) break rules? starship  .paint   ~ regal  02:22, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Good question, but unrelated. He left because people thought he was someone else, they didn't believe him that he wasn't. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:23, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, apparently so, and that "someone else" was a rule breaker, perhaps? Sad... but anyway, congrats on your Germany DYK. It's a worthy tribute! starship  .paint   ~ regal  11:34, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Someone else was Rlevse, who proclaimed me an awesome Wikipedian. He left over a copyvio accusation, TFA Grace Sherwood, Halloween 2010. Both had not broken things. Even IF BarkingMoon was the same, no damage would have been done, see my model for a clean presentation of achievements. But he wasn't the same, or I can't tell a man from a boy ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:24, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * ps: 13k hits for the bird! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:25, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I see, I hadn't realized Rlevse was your inspiration for your Precious prizes. Congrats on your 13k - though I must say, the German DYK is much more prominent than the English on the Main Page. Also, congrats on 7-1, with my two teams (Netherlands and Croatia, and all of Asia) out, I'm rooting for Germany! starship  .paint   ~ regal  14:28, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * He was inspired by Phaedriel, list started in 2007, she assigned a poem to each recipient! He took the pic of the sapphire, which had even more hits on the German Main page (34k), as the alleged witch (almost 30k), - I translate for the missed ones ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:35, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm glad that you're continuing spreading Wikilove, which apparently Phaedriel valued. :) Pardon me... when I read that he took the sapphire picture, my first thought was wondering how much did it cost. >_> starship  .paint   ~ regal  06:23, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
 * You can ask him ;) - he's an admin on the commons, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:36, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Thank you Gerda, I have asked. Very interesting about your tributes on de.wiki! :) starship  .paint   ~ regal  08:47, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Did you notice the question on the Signpost talk? - I forgot to mention the mathematician (don't miss the top of the page) ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:12, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes Gerda, I did notice the Signpost talk. I have come across the Kiefer.Wolfowitz case before, long after it was closed. Sigh. So drawn-out. starship  .paint   ~ regal  12:10, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

MITB 2011
Hi Starship. I've been following your nominations for awhile but I've never done a review before as I've been hesitant to start until I know for sure what I'm doing. I'll be going on vacation in a few days so I won't be back for two weeks or so. I'll read up some more on it and I'll let you know when I get back. Fortunately the article has been in your capable hands for quite some time and I see Will guided you through the GA process so it shouldn't be much work. Thanks.LM2000 (talk) 19:00, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I left a few comments just now actually :) LM2000 (talk) 00:17, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Great, thank you so much ! I'll try to address your comments soon. The peer review will be open for some time so by the time you're back, I hope to nominate it as a Featured Article, the timeline should be fine. starship  .paint   ~ regal  02:51, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Hopefully I can throw my support in that discussion as well. As you can tell both Hulk and I were a little confused as to how this process goes.  Hopefully we can get even more of these through once we get used to it.LM2000 (talk) 03:19, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, frankly I'm new to FA as well. Not your fault that you are unfamiliar - the project has shrunk and thus has largely moved away from GAs / FAs. starship  .paint   ~ regal  04:10, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

Suffering from autoblock
- could you help me? I have on/off access... Thank you!
