I have removed the Files for Deletion tag you placed on File:Tssilverboltiii.jpg. I did this because you didn't create a nomination at Wikipedia:Files for deletion/2008 July 19, and didn't give a reason when you tagged the image. If you still think it should be deleted, feel free to renominate it. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 15:39, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
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. Courcelles (talk) 18:59, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Dead in other wikis
Took a not-so-random sample of 20 names from your list:
- 5 - cannot source anything reliable
- 1 - alive (incorrect interwiki leads to a different person)
- 14 - dead. Half of these articles actually say the person's dead but were categorized as living.

- Question, I'm going to work on these perhaps in 8 hours or so. Would it be OK to remove the entries as we resolve them so that the work isn't duplicated? Thanks --Joshua Scott (LiberalFascist) 17:20, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
- Feel free to do whatever you want, Ill regenerate the list tomorrow. βcommand 23:22, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello Beta. After creating this article yesterday, I created a redirect for Heywood-Wakefield today and saw that you deleted an article with that name in 2006 as overly promotional. The notice called for notification when re-creating. Please look over the new article and let me know if you find it overly promotional. Regards, Novickas (talk) 21:08, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
- Looks good, I dont see any major red flags, looks like it will someday turn into a decent article. Back in 06 it was probably a press release by the company in an attempt to promote themselves. but your version looks ok. βcommand 21:53, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

For Christ's sake, the man has declared himself a Serb, has founded the Serbian Venetian Printing Press with the purpose of printing books for the Serbian Orthodox Church!
What the heck is wrong with you? What sort of POV-pushing do you mention?
- Then find some reliable sources to back your claim up before you insert your claims. Just because he worked for serbs does not make him one. βcommand 21:44, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
You have any referenced that he declared him self as Serb? Rave92(talk) 22:23, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
- The only source given so far is about the history of printing. βcommand 22:31, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
