Hi Famous Hobo, sorry for not getting back to you earlier regarding this message. Unfortunately, due to work and other factors I will probably not be as active on wikipedia as before. However, after quickly glossing over the German article, I noticed it contains a lot of material that at least in the English wiki would be fall under WP:GAMECRUFT. Also, the user who was clearly in charge of bringing the article to good status, claims to have an advanced knowledge of English. Perhaps you can ask him for advice directly? Hope this is of any help. Jotamide (talk) 05:37, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

PS: I re-added the tracklist under the music section. Not sure why you removed it when other video game articles (1, 2) that have achieved good status do feature them.

I'll see what I can do with that German user. Also, in regards to the tracklist, yes it is used in a number of articles, but that's mainly because the music is a lot more notable. IDV and I came to the conclusion that since the music was really only a small part of the development process with not much notability, it really wasn't necessary. So in compliance with what IDV mentioned a few weeks ago, I'll remove the tracklist, however, we're more than willing to re-add it if you make a better argument for it in the game's talk section.

BTW, thanks for all the edits you made to VLR, they really helped, and myself and the other editors greatly appreciated the assistance.Famous Hobo (talk) 05:51, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

I see know, no worries. And thank YOU for bringing the VLR atricle to this level of quality. Hopefully, it will get the GA status soon. Can't wait for ZE3! :) Jotamide (talk) 05:57, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of songs recorded by Rise Against, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Savior and Audience of One. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:From Nowhere (Dan Croll song), a page you created, has not been edited in 6 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 00:58, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

So, barring any new interviews popping up, I think the development section of Zero Escape is pretty solid now, at the very least in terms of information. What it's lacking is information about puzzle design (but I recall reading some article about that, so it should be doable) and music. The two soundtrack releases have one review each at RPGFan, but I don't actually know enough about music to use them to write anything more than what's already there. Seeing as you are a member of two music-related WikiProjects as well, would you be able to take a look at the reviews (or any other RS if you happen to know of/come across any) and see if there's any useful information that can be implemented into the article? If I were to try it, I wouldn't be able to paraphrase etc as I don't know much about music terminology.--IDV^talk 10:54, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

I'll see what I can do, but just doing a quick search through Google, I can't find really anything (outside of reviews) pertaining to the music. Another thing to note is that 90% of the score in 999 and VLR are the same, except VLR just uses higher quality audio. I don't think there will be necessarily enough simply from reviews, but I'll try. Famous Hobo (talk) 15:06, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

IDV, I wasn't able to find any other sources for the music section, so we might have to cut it. However, for the puzzle section, I remembered hearing about that in the Aksys Games discussion panel, and was able to find it. It occurs at around 25:18 in this video . I'd implement it myself, but for some reason, I'm having problems figuring out a good place to put it in. Famous Hobo (talk) 04:04, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

Oh hey, that's what I was thinking about. Could've sworn I had read this, not heard it, but whatever. Also, wow, got a bsod while editing, and when I restarted my computer and restored my browser session, my text was retained in the text field. Technology sure is awful/amazing.--IDV^talk 08:52, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

Just checking to see if you wanted to review the Gameplay section of Life Is Strange, as you briefly mentioned. If not, I'll be closing the archive. Cognissonance (talk) 09:53, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

My sincerest apologies for making you wait so long, I'll get on that right away. Famous Hobo (talk) 15:09, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

THANK YOU! About time someone took it, it's been a month! My first PR too, wish I didn't have to wait this long. Accept a batch of cookies as my thanks! dannymusiceditor ~talk to me!~ 15:32, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

P.S. I'm aware it has some dead link problems but I'll get to those soon.

I apologize, but I have very little expertise making list articles. I do have the following observations, however, isn't having the same artist linked over and over again overlinking? Same with the song titles that re-entered. I can understand once the template ends and a new one starts then it can be linked again but I think this should be fixed. dannymusiceditor ^{~talk to me!~} 00:06, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Good point, I'll fix that. Thank you for the suggestion. Famous Hobo (talk) 14:57, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Is there a WikiTool on how to easily archive refs? I now know how to manually do it, but I want to see if there's a faster way. Sorry for all the messages I've been bombarding you with lately! dannymusiceditor ^{~talk to me!~} 20:38, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Sadly, I don't know of any WikiTool. Thinking about it now, there's probably an easier way of doing it, because it seems like there's an easier way to do everything on Wikipedia, but for archiving, sadly I don't know. I've always done it manually. Famous Hobo (talk) 14:57, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 17:10, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Are you going to continue this? I haven't heard from you in a week. I would like to nominate for GA soon. dannymusiceditor ^{~talk to me!~} 15:46, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

My sincerest apologies (I really need to stop volunteering for peer reviews I inevitably forget about), I'll promise I'll finish it tonight, and then you can nominate it. Unfortunately, I hate to sound like an ass about it, but I won't be able to respond for like the next 8-9 hours (VERY long driving trip, Thanksgiving you know), but trust me, I will finish it tonight. Famous Hobo (talk) 15:55, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

I totally understand. Thanksgiving does that to us all. dannymusiceditor ^{~talk to me!~} 18:47, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for finishing that up! So how do I close the review as an archive when I'm finished with it? And how can I find the old ID of the edit I made that finished the peer review? For example Talk:Nu metal has the link to when it was copyedited, but when i put the peer review in for this article's talk page, how can I find that ID number? dannymusiceditor ^{~talk to me!~} 20:09, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

Nevermind, I got it now. dannymusiceditor ^{~talk to me!~} 14:07, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

On 2 December 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fallout Shelter, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Fallout Shelter became the most popular free iOS application in the US and UK within a day of its release? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fallout Shelter. 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 Famous Hobo, I remember you saying at the begging thread a while ago that would be interested in leaving some comments at the Jumping Flash! FAC soon. It's been a while I'm worried that the FAC will die because I've had no comments there in a long time. It's already received one support and one incomplete set of comments.

Hi Famous Hobo. I hope you're doing really well. Thanks again really a lot for your feedback about Title TK. I've now nominated the article at FAC. Would you be interested in participating in the FAC review? I'd be grateful for any further comments that you may have. Thank you. Moisejp (talk) 02:32, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi Famous Hobo, how are you? I hope all is well. A while back you offered to do a source review for the Title TK FAC. I'm not sure how far the FAC coordinators may or may not feel the FAC process is close to completion, but it'd be great to have the source review out of the way for if and when the article is deemed good. Also, let me know anytime if you need more help with HIOTW or another article. Thanks! Moisejp (talk) 17:56, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello, friend. If you have time, would you mind taking a look at another Evanescence PR for me (this time the discography)? I know in the past you were working on a list article. I've had this PR open a month with no response. dannymusiceditor ^{Speak up!} 16:13, 29 June 2016 (UTC)

Sure, I'll have a look at it, though not until tonight, as I'm about to get on a flight back home. Famous Hobo (talk) 16:36, 29 June 2016 (UTC)

Hello Famous Hobo, just a reminder of the GA review here, in case you forgot about it. You haven't edited the page in a week now. Anarchyte (work | talk) 07:59, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

I found the magazine in the garage, and scanned the interview: link (9.02 MB). The filled-out citation template would be {{cite magazine |title=The Secret is Out |author=Loe, Casey |magazine=[[Nintendo Power]] |publisher=[[Future US]] |date=May 2011 |issue=267 |pages=64–69}}.

@IDV: Got it. And look, it's even got some nice localization information as well. Not sure how much we'll be able to use it, but it's nice to have some additional magazine refs on top of the dozens of online refs. Famous Hobo (talk) 19:29, 27 July 2016 (UTC)

All right. Yeah, I imagine the interview was conducted through Aksys, and that they took the opportunity to talk to Ben Bateman as well. Even if it isn't super useful (I dunno - I haven't read the feature in full yet, and I don't remember everything we have covered in our 999 article) there's probably at least some new information in there to add to the development section.--IDV^talk 20:36, 27 July 2016 (UTC)

Hello: I have just finished a GOCE copy edit of Monaco: What's Yours Is Mine and was surprised to see that it met GA requirements. Perhaps I don't understand the process, but given the article's grammar and other issues, I would have expected it to fail. Regards. Twofingered Typist (talk) 14:12, 1 August 2016 (UTC)

@Twofingered Typist and Anarchyte: Wow...um, that's embarrassing on my part. Dangit, I'm normally good at pointing out grammar mistakes. Anyway, sorry guys for not pointing out those grammar mistakes. I'll try to be more careful in my next review. Famous Hobo (talk) 17:29, 1 August 2016 (UTC)

No problem, even Cluebot get's it wrong from time to time. Just know that as an IP editor, it's more likely for bots to revert your edits since a lot of IP edits are just vandalism. I see your also a fan of narrative driven games. Famous Hobo (talk) 04:29, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

I've probably checked the VLR article at least ten times already to see if it has been updated to FA status. I can't imagine how the wait must be for you. Liar's Lair (talk) 16:19, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, it's been up there for a long time. Fortunately, the FAC process is going well so far, with three supports (and hopefully a fourth on the way). We also need the image review (which we got, but we're still waiting for a response to see if it passed or not) and the source review (and we put up a request, so that should come soon). It's a tiring process, but I think that it's worth it. Famous Hobo (talk) 18:18, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

Good to see that things are on their way to completion. The source review is just looking through the sources to see if the information matches, correct? (And this is somewhat unrelated, but it's interesting to note how articles that became featured years ago were scrutinized under a different standard than articles are today.) Liar's Lair (talk) 22:49, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, that's exactly what a source review is. Fortunately, IDV did an awesome job looking through all of the sources before the nomination, so the source review should be an instant pass. As for the different standard, it is interesting to see what articles were allowed to pass years ago, some of which wouldn't even come close to passing today (for example, I posted a number of issues on the Final Fantasy X-2 talk page, as that article is in serious disrepair. Fortunately, a couple of people are working on the issues now). Nowadays I guess we just have much tougher expectations. Famous Hobo (talk) 03:27, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

I remember seeing how awesome IDV's source check was, I'll try to do something similar (read: blatantly copy what he did) for the Spec Ops article. That X-2 article is an interesting example, I'd have tried to help out if I ever actually played it. And yeah, I think it's a combination of many things when it comes to the relatively lower quality of the older FAs; smaller userbase, less articles, new structural guidelines implemented over the years, higher standards in general due to all the pretty damn good articles nowadays, and a stronger desire to feature articles at that time in the first place: there's only a grand total of 4,000 something FAs in 2016, which is enough for roughly one FA a day for 13 years, meaning that when TFA was first introduced in 2004 there were probably only like hundreds of FAs and there had to be enough articles to meet the daily quota, so the criteria was less strict in the first place. Liar's Lair (talk) 17:57, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

Another point, figured I'd mention it here rather than at the talk page - for the reception section of the Spec Ops article, the image description currently used is potentially a spoiler ("white phosphorus scene... forces walker to kill... civilians"). This is a similar case to the image used in the plot section, no? Should I just rewrite it to remove that part? Liar's Lair (talk) 03:08, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

Well, I would personally remove the image from the reception section. Sure it could be seen as a spoiler, but from what I remember reading somewhere on this site, once a major plot point has been mentioned, it's fair game for the rest of the article, so I wouldn't worry about spoilers there. However, Wikipedia also recommends only having three non-free images on an article, and the Spec Ops article has four: the box art cover, which can't be avoided; the gameplay image, which also can't be avoided; the image of the city under the sand, which is more of an aesthetic picture but fine as is; and the reception picture. Since the reception section reads just fine without the picture, I recommend removing it. Famous Hobo (talk) 20:16, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

@Liar's Lair: Just in case you didn't see this. Oh by the way, guess what just got promoted! Well, it doesn't have the shiny star yet, but in a couple hours the bot will come around and put it in the article. Famous Hobo (talk) 23:35, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Haha, Finally! I see the gold star now. I remember checking the VLR article just earlier this week and saw the closing comments on the Candidate page... looked like everything was coming to a conclusion. Congrats man! I know you put a lot of time into it. - And as for the reception picture, I think you're right. I'll just remove it. I saw what happened to the VLR cast picture and thought "this doesn't hurt the article", and then I saw the reasoning behind why it was removed and I thought "yeah, it doesn't really need to be there." - And I need to be pinged every time honestly, I forget what I've written (and where I've written it) without constant notifications. Liar's Lair (talk) 21:34, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:VLR cast.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 19:10, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Good news - the article of the Sexiest Man Alive is a GA now, as you might have noticed. You can also nominate his filmography for FL after making some little edits here and there. Also, could you drop by at the PR for Taylor Swift? -FrB.TG (talk) 13:44, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

Nice job on that. As for his filmography page, I would nominate it soon, but I kind of already have a featured nomination elsewhere... It's pretty much done, just needs one more support, and it appears that once the editor responds, we'll get the final support, but until that nomination is done, I can't nominate his filmography page. I also have a couple of other articles on the backburner I'd like to nominate after my current nomination is done. I would put up the filmography page for peer review, but well, I've got this. So for now, his filmography page will kind of just sit there for a while. If you'd like to nominate it (after a couple more edits of course), that's fine by me. As for Swift's peer review, sure, I'll take a look at it later today. Famous Hobo (talk) 14:53, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

Okay, after reworking the lead and making some other changes in the list, I think it's time I nominate it with you. Having said that, I am not nominating it to take credit - I just want it to reach FL status (since his awards list is already featured and his biography is also a current FAC) before I decide my future in Wiki. Cheers, FrB.TG (talk) 19:46, 17 November 2016 (UTC)

Also, since I am not sure how active I will be, please help me in resolving the reviewers' concerns and feel free to remove my name from there if I don't participate there a lot. - FrB.TG (talk) 19:47, 17 November 2016 (UTC)

Since there is usually a reason for it I wanted to inquire as to why you noted 700 words in this trimming of the plot section; while I am aware that the movie project has guidelines to this effect I had seen nothing in the article's subsections or an edit notice to this effect associated with the article. It seems to me to be a little brutal to trim out relevant information, but as I said there is usually a good reason for it so I wanted to hear back from you first before taking any action that could seem questionable here. TomStar81 (Talk) 05:57, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

Well to be completely honest, the reason is because of the movie project guidelines. I hate to throw him under the bus, but the 700 word limit was first brought to my attention by Juhachi, a veteran editor on anime, manga, and visual novel articles. During the Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward peer review, a few editors and myself were trying to shorten the game's plot section as it was almost 1000 words and didn't make too much sense. There, Juhachi recommended the 700 word limit. As for its use in Modern Warfare 2, I kind of figured it was the same thing. Call of Duty games are infamous for their short single-player stories, and since the plot section for Modern Warfare 2 reads fine as is (at least to me, if there are any inconsistencies, please point them out), I figured it was okay to shorten the plot section. But you do bring up a very good point, there is no exact ruling in the video game project as to how long the plot section should be. I'll start a discussion on the WT:VG. Famous Hobo (talk) 15:36, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

I've nominated the article about the episode Chad Harris-Crane for Featured Article consideration. I would really appreciate any comments or feedback on this nomination, especially since you have helped me with its peer review.

Famous Hobo, you opened this review page 26 days ago. Do you plan on starting the actual review soon? If not, I can arrange for it to be put back into the pool of nominations waiting for a reviewer. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:01, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

Famous Hobo, it's now over a month and a half. If you do not respond to this message by the end of the weekend (or within 24 hours of your next edit, if that's later, but no longer than seven days from now), I will take that as an indication that you are no longer planning on pursing this review, and I will have it placed back in the pool of nominations awaiting a reviewer. (At this point, a review would need to be done in a timely manner.) Thank you for your attention here. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:09, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi there! My mean is not to bother you, but I was wondering if you could find time to comment on my FAC above—which you previously peer-reviewed—and even support or oppose to it. Best regards, Cartoon network freak (talk) 11:56, 19 September 2016 (UTC)

Hey Famous Hobo, Recently saw the Fat Wreck Chords documentary - totally recommend it - and was revisiting my old obsession with the first few Rise Against records (obsession is maybe an understatement). I was just skimming through the talk page on a few Rise Against articles and saw your name come up a few times so I decided I'd send a falafel your way as a nod to a fellow fan of their old stuff (and one so dedicated as to edit their wiki articles!). Rise Against was a big part of my middle school experience well into the end of high school and remains my favorite band of all time, despite vastly expanding my music interests. I don't know what you're supposed to make of the falafel, but yeah. ~glide on mate~ -Adam Stigg426 (talk) 02:14, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

@Stigg426: Thanks! I'll try and check out that documentary when I can. I'm also a huge fan of the band, to the point where I put serious time into their articles. For example, I've gotten The Unraveling to Good Article nomination status, and I'm just waiting for a reviewer. I've also got Rise Against discography at Featured List candidate status, and still waiting for reviewers. I really just enjoy learning about this band's history. Famous Hobo (talk) 03:17, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

Hey there! Just wanted to give you props for the work you've done on No Russian. When I started the page for Robbing the Cradle a couple of years ago, it occurred to me that No Russian was begging for an article as well. Now I see it's finally been created (and improved to Good status!), which is quite a pleasant surprise. You've done a fantastic job with it—I have no doubt that it'll pass the planned FAC. Good luck with your nominaton. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 00:25, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi FH. If you have the time please could you take one final look at the Super Mario Galaxy FAC?

Hobo I'm begging you, please return with the GA review of this article as soon as you can. I wouldn't want BlueMoonset returning me to the pool of nominations awaiting a reviewer. That's another three to four months of wait in my part, and it'd be a damn shame. I'm actually planning to submit it as featured article if I pass this to GA. I want it to be the second article about a found footage flick to be FA after Cannibal Holocaust. But for that, I'm gonna need your help since you've had FA articles under your belt – so I guess I'm in luck at least. Thanks again. Bluesphere 07:20, 19 March 2017 (UTC)

Famous Hobo, it's been another month without a look-in. Please put this review on your priority list. Thank you. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:17, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Hey there, I noticed that you tend to change citation titles for Metacritic pages to "X Critic Reviews for Y", while this is more-or-less correct, I wanted to point out that that form is the appropriate title for the Critic Reviews tab/subpage; e.g. for Left 4 Dead 2, you used said title for the link http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/left-4-dead-2, while it should rather be http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/left-4-dead-2/critic-reviews, where the title is also presented as-is. If you would rather keep the toppage link, "X for Y Reviews" would be the preferred title. Cheers! (please ping me in case of reply) Lordtobi (✉) 19:40, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

Hey Famous Hobo, just wanted to drop in and wish you a Happy Easter! dannymusiceditor ^{Speak up!} 13:15, 16 April 2017 (UTC)

@DannyMusicEditor: Thanks for the message!

Hey man, this is just a quick reminder in case you've missed the pings I left on Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Fallout 4: Far Harbor/archive2 regarding a few of the issues you brought up. Cheers, Anarchyte (work | talk) 07:56, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed you left helpful feedback in the peer review of Bradley Cooper's article and wondered if you might look over Ben Affleck's article too? Thanks, Popeye191 (talk) 07:25, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

@Popeye191: I can take a look at it soon. I'm a bit busy with finals right now, so it might take me a few days to get to it. Famous Hobo (talk) 08:28, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

There's no rush, good luck in your finals Popeye191 (talk) 08:40, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

The article Prayer of the Refugee 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:Prayer of the Refugee for things which need to be addressed.

If you have any time, would you consider looking at this? Only one person has looked so far (out of 2 that responded to my numerous requests). The first process got ignored completely. I am trying desperately hard to get this promoted before June. Can you help me? dannymusiceditor ^{Speak up!} 19:19, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

Sorry I never got to it, I was going to do that right now and saw it done already. dannymusiceditor ^{Speak up!} 01:46, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

@DannyMusicEditor: No worries. I noticed that in the individual song articles, one editor had used the same reference for the release dates, and since they matched up with the dates in the album article, I figured might as well include it. BTW, I will get back to the Fightstar FAC soon, my life has surprisingly been rather busy as of late. Famous Hobo (talk) 18:21, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

"BTW, just wanted to spread the good news. There is now a bot that will automatically fill out all of your references with archived urls in just a few seconds. Just sign in to iabot (it uses your Wikipedia account), and tell it which article you want to fill out, and that's it. I used it on this article, as you can see in the history. It filled out 10 references with archived urls in about 3 seconds. Seriously, it's a godsend. Instead of an hour's work filling out references with archived urls, now you can do it in just a few seconds." --Famous Hobo, May 9, 2017

Oh my god, I love this. This is what I've been dreaming of. Also a big congrats on getting POTR to GA status, it's my fave Rise Against rock song. I hand't even noticed it in nominations. dannymusiceditor ^{Speak up!} 22:54, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

I just got a big slide of feedback. Let me know if he's covered all you can find (or just tackle the areas he hasn't yet). dannymusiceditor ^{Speak up!} 23:48, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Swing Life Away 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.
