I can see you've been waiting for a while on this one and I have answered your call! This article looks like it can be reviewed and over with in under a week if we're both quick enough. It looks pretty good, mainly a few prose issues, but after that I'm sure it'll pass. Surfinsi (talk) 16:37, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello! I have finished my initial review. Once you go through it and fix everything you can contact me and I'll look through the article again. Surfinsi (talk) 02:01, 3 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Fievel Is Glauque 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 ChristieBot, on behalf of Surfinsi -- Surfinsi (talk) 16:41, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello,

I hope you're doing well! As an event coordinator on English Wikipedia, I’m happy to share some news with you. You now have the event-organizer right! This gives you access to the CampaignEvents extension, a powerful set of tools to help you organize and promote events and WikiProjects more easily. With the CampaignEvents extension, you can:

• Manage event registration directly on English Wikipedia.
• Use the Invitation List tool to find potential participants for your events/WikiProjects
• Receive automatic promotion of your events via the Collaboration List

Learn more on mw:Help:Extension:CampaignEvents

Now that I have your attention, I’d also like to share some updates to the extension:

• The Collaboration List can now be transcluded, meaning you can easily embed it on other wiki pages to share event details with more people by adding {{Special:AllEvents}}. Learn more.
• Admins can now determine which namespaces are permitted for Event Registration on English Wikipedia, via Special:CommunityConfiguration. Right now, the Event namespace is permitted by default for Event Registration. However, other namespaces (such as Wikipedia, WikiProject, etc) can now be added as permitted namespaces by admins too. This can help other types of organized activities, such as WikiProjects, use Event Registration.For details, please visit: Permitted_namespaces

If you need help using these new tools, I’m here to support you. Feel free to reach out for guidance. You can also find some useful video guides on Commons.

We’re excited to see how you use these tools for WikiProjects or events! If you have any questions, please let me know.

Udehb-WMF (talk) 11:28, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

The article Fievel Is Glauque you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article needs changes or clarifications to meet the good article criteria. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Fievel Is Glauque and Talk:Fievel Is Glauque/GA1 for issues which need to be addressed.
