Autoreviewer
editHi Shadygrove2007, after seeing one of your new articles, I was surprised to see that an editor who has contributed quite so many articles over such a longtime as you hadn't already been approved as an wp:Autoreviewer. So I've taken the liberty of rectifying that. ϢereSpielChequers 13:55, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for rewrite to Frederick William Hulme. Cheers. Victuallers (talk) 09:59, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Confused
editI'm confused as to what you are doing here. I wrote this article and I spent a lot of time not using text from the DNB and marking the two places where facts did arrive. Why have you marked this article as "containing text from" the DNB? Victuallers (talk) 20:17, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
Mary Harrison (artist)
editShe was the first woman allowed to copy pictures at the Louvre, correct? You missed a word and I tried to fill it in logically, but without access to the book in question I wasn't certain. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 14:46, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
Congratulations on a really nice, readable article. Miles better than anything would have come out of User:Nancy/WIP/Havell which coincidentally I only started thinking about a couple of days ago..... great minds and all that. I trust you are going to submit to DYK? All best, Nancy talk 17:07, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
You are now a Reviewer
edit
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) 21:36, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Fortunato Chelleri
editYou asked for additional citations. As explained in my edit remark, I translated from the German WP, as had been suggested. German WP comes without citations, because it was based on a book mentioned. I'll go and formally use as ref what's there as external link, thinking this is a formality. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:06, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
