00:33:05, 27 September 2014 review of submission by DeadStrikesBack
DeadStrikesBack (talk) 00:33, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

How do I change the title?


 * The title at User:DeadStrikesBack/sandbox is the last thing to be concerned about. The draft needs substantial improvement to be acceptable at all. It does not pass WP:BIO at present, and seems unlikely to do so in the future. Fiddle   Faddle  08:49, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

Need help clearing this error message: "This sandbox is in the Draft namespace. Either move this page into your userspace, or remove the User sandbox template." I would like to remove the User sandbox template from the pending Draft:Continuous_Proportion such that the sandbox is returned to my userspace and the submission remains in the Draft namespace (pending review since Aug). I would like to know the procedure so that I can take care of it myself going forward. Thanks, Proportions Proportions (talk) 18:47, 27 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Please do not worry. It is an aggravating foible and has been dealt with. If you want to see how, please look at the history tab on the draft and compare the version before my edit with my edit. Fiddle   Faddle  21:52, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

18:52:58, 27 September 2014 review of submission by Crossford
I noticed that the island identified on the map in the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tortuga_Island,_Haiti has been wrongly identified as Tortuga Island. The marker on the map is actually on Ile de la Gonave. Tortuga Island is off the northwest of Haiti, in the position I gave. I am 100% certain of my facts, and cannot understand why you have rejected my submission, especially as I also indicated that verification that I am correct is so easily obtained on Google Earth. Are you rejecting my submission because you think I am wrong? Or is there some other reason? Crossford (talk) 18:52, 27 September 2014 (UTC) Crossford (talk) 18:52, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
