The article The Staff of Karnath you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:The Staff of Karnath for things which need to be addressed.

Hey there! I have another GA nomination - Sonam Kapoor. Would ya like to review this one? -- Frankie talk 14:31, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
GA Cup competitors and observers: Happy Fall! Get ready, we're about to move into the finals of the second-ever GA Cup! Monday saw the end of Round 3. Out of the 8 contestants in the semi-finals, 5 have moved to the finals. The semi-finals were competitive. Our semi-finalists reviewed a total of 61 articles, or a grand total of 1,151 points. If you were to lump the top winners from each of the three pools together, it'd be a close horse race; they were within 35 points of each other, which can only mean that the finals will be an exciting race. Tomandjerry211, our top scorer in Round 2, again earned the most points in the semi-finals, with 288 points and 16 articles reviewed. Johanna came in second overall, with 251 points and 13 articles reviewed; Sturmvogel 66 came in third overall, with 221 points and 16 articles. Rounding out our wildcard slots are Zwerg Nase and The Rambling Man. These contestants were very strategic in how they reviewed articles. Like every other round in the history of the GA Cup, success depended upon reviewing oldest-nominated articles. For example, Johanna reviewed 5 articles that were worth the highest possible points. Congrats to all our finalists, and good luck! Stay tuned to this space for more information about the 2nd GA Cup, including overall statistics and how this competition has affected Wikipedia. We regret to inform you that Dom497, one of our original judges and co-creator of the GA Cup, has stepped down as a judge. Dom, a longtime member of WP:WikiProject Good articles, is responsible for the look of the GA Cup and has been instrumental in its upkeep. We wish him the best as he starts his university education, and are certain that he'll make an impact there as he has in Wikipedia. The finals started on October 1 at 0:00:01 UTC and will end on Ocober 29 at 23:59:59 UTC with a winner being crowned. Information about the Final can be found here. Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6 and Jaguar, and MrWooHoo. To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletter, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant still competing, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants.

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Battletoads (video game) you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of AdrianGamer -- AdrianGamer (talk) 08:40, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
Hi, can you please perform a minor copy-edit to this article, which is currently at FAC? I know, it can be a boring job, but being a short article it won't take much time. Your help in this regard would be much appreciated. Thanks, —Vensatry (ping) 06:26, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
This list has been promoted to FL status yesterday and is my first FL success. Thanks for reviewing/commenting/supporting the list's promotion at its FLC. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 01:44, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
My progress has been smooth, Jaguar. I feel a lot better. The pain and memories do continue to haunt, but i am able to divert my mind. Except for obligations (including studies), i am mostly reclusive towards all other interests of mine. It was of such an extent that i said straightaway on Ssven2's face that i'm not in a mood to listen to his suggestions at the moment and will do so when i have some peace of mind (and that really hurts me, considering his friendly nature). Hope he doesn't feel bad about that. Anyways, what about you? Did you complete watching the film? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 16:04, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for reviewing the article. I have nominated it for FAC, my first one. Here is the link if you wanna leave comments. :) -- Frankie talk 15:50, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
Hey, can you please review this article for GA? It's quite a small article and won't take much time. Yashthepunisher (talk) 07:00, 6 October 2015 (UTC)
Just a gentle reminder. Yashthepunisher (talk) 04:40, 8 October 2015 (UTC)
Hi Jaguar,
Thank you very much for your review and support at the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant FAC. The article has been promoted and I have nominated it to go up on the main page here. My new FAC is for the Frank Jenner article. If you have time to contribute to the discussion, your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
I see you have listed this film as the top favourite in the film section of your 90s kid userpage. Any plans on taking it to GA? — Ssven2 Speak 2 me 10:54, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
Ebert usually lists films with 4/4 ratings to his great films list. Space Jam is 3.5/4, so it just about misses the cut. I really don't blame for being on the minority side of the Rotten Tomatoes rating. Space Jam's one of my favourites too. Damn, that opening sequence with the "I believe I can fly" song and the boy playing little Michael, classic! Looks like he really loved to Slam Jam. It would be ideal to purchase an autobiography of Michael Jordan that explains how WB picked him for the role. Sources on the VFX and animation too could be great. There's even an official website on your userpage. You can use that. — Ssven2 Speak 2 me 23:54, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
You can add info/references about the film here. — Ssven2 Speak 2 me 06:31, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Another Sivaji Ganesan film. One of his best, I must say. It is my next planned GA and I was wondering if you might be interested in giving this article a copyedit. :) Thamizhan1994 (Appo Pesu) 15:19, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

Can I interest you in another Bach cantata, Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir, BWV 38? The infobox is on the talk, the references are scattered all over the article, sorry for the inconvenience. I would like to see it on DYK on 25 October. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:56, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
I never even posted on Blofeld's talk page so what are you talking about?? Blofeld was attacking me again on his talk page and an admin warned him to stop or he would be blocked. I had no part in any of that on Blofelds page. Caden cool 20:10, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
Please go back and modify your post on blofelds page because it is misleading towards me and gives a false impression. Caden cool 20:20, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
On 14 October 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Gunfright, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in Gunfright, the player takes the role of a sheriff in the town of Black Rock and is tasked with eliminating outlaws who are scattered throughout the settlement? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Gunfright. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

Hi Jaguar, I saw you changed the edit notice at Template:Editnotices/Page/Zimbabwe from SA English to British English today. Under what basis do you say the English used in Zim has more ties to British English than South African English? Britain only granted independence in 1980, but Rhodesia was never run directly from London (apart from during an interim period in 1979–80) and so far as I know the closer cultural and linguistic relation, so far as the English language in Zimbabwe goes, has always been South Africa. A quick look on Google books reveals a few sources apparently backing that impression up.
Do you think we could possibly look at perhaps changing the edit notice back to South African English? Cheers, — Cliftonian (talk) 18:12, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
