Footnoting style...

Hello there. Using Indonesian Occupation of East Timor as an example, i note that you combine several sources into one footnote separating them by a colon. Ie, [1] The norm one wikipedia, however, is to give each source a separate footnote thus often providing 2 or more footnotes within the prose such: [2][3]

  1. ^ source A; source B
  2. ^ source A
  3. ^ source B

Anyway, just looking to see your thoughts on this and whether there has been an attempt to get it into the MOS. cheers PS - the Gough Whitlam article looks a lot better than it did a year or so ago. --Merbabu (talk) 23:41, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

Whitlam

Thanks for your thorough job on Whitlam! I will go through them gradually and see what is to be done. Great job!--Wehwalt (talk) 21:44, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. –xenotalk 22:27, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

There is a copyedit being done right now, so would you mind revisiting the article to see if it will be acceptable to you? User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 19:06, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Please let me know when the copyedit is done, and I'll take another look. Kudos again for your hard work and persistence! Scartol • Tok 19:43, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
You're welcome. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 19:54, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Not sure if it is actually "done or not" but here is what was done since my last edits http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=National_Anthem_of_Russia&action=historysubmit&diff=368736651&oldid=368341902 User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 05:54, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks

Thank you very much for signing up for the July Backlog Elimination Drive! The copyedit backlog stretches back two and a half years, all the way back to the beginning of 2008! We're really going to need all the help we can muster to get it down to a manageable number. We've ambitiously set a goal of clearing all of 2008 from the backlog this month. In order to do that, we're going to need more participants. Is there anyone that you can invite or ask to participate with you? If so, we're offering an award to the person who brings in the most referrals. Just notify ɳorɑfʈ Talk! or Diannaa TALK of who your referrals are. Once again, thanks for your support!

I reformatted the career section to create a better nav box and give the article better readability through structure. Many recent biography FAs like Madonna and Rudolf Wolters emplore more creative headings and subheadings even if there is no apples to apples set style. Garrett 17:20, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Scartol, I thought we were trading? ɳorɑfʈ Talk! 02:29, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Great thanks! And to be fair, I forgot to remind you. Look forward to reading the review. Cheers, Tom Tomlock01 (talk) 01:02, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi! Still no sign of your review, so as requested, I thought I'd drop you a little reminder. Best wishes, Tom. Tomlock01 (talk) 15:07, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Wow, super quick reply! Sure no worries, hope you feel better. Tomlock01 (talk) 15:15, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for the excellent peer review, and your copyediting! Hopefully we will be taking it to FA soon. Awesome Wikipedia hip-hop track btw. :-) Tomlock01 (talk) 23:15, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
I forgot to say, I've replied to all your points on the review. Hopefully I've explained my reasons where I haven't changed something, and there are a few things which are unresolved if you get a chance to view my comments. Cheers, Tom Tomlock01 (talk) 23:16, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

Re: Spelling ...

Certainly. Could you do me a favor and repost your question on WT:POLAND? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 19:50, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
