User talk:Tyrol5

Requesting a Wikinews review
Hi @Tyrol5, I know I should be putting this on your Wikinews talk page, and happy to move the discussion there, but I wanted the greatest chance of reaching you first as you're more active here. I submitted this article on Saturday and have been trying to line up a review for it since last Wednesday the 14th, but have had no luck contacting anyone who is active enough to review it. It seems like there is a severe inactivity / lack of reviewers problem on Wikinews which is exacerbated by the fact that time is of the essence for articles there.

Really, I would just like to get my first article reviewed, and ideally published, at least before it goes stale and gets deleted. Would you please be able to review it, or if not, can you please approve Asheiou's RfP so that they might be able to review it?

Thank you, --Habst (talk) 14:46, 22 February 2024 (UTC)


 * @Tyrol5, I wanted to ping you on this again as I have re-anchored the article to the 2024 World Indoor Championships last weekend here. Do you think you would have any time to review it this week? I would greatly appreciate your feedback as it has been difficult to line up another reviewer. Thank you, --Habst (talk) 20:40, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
