  • Ikezawa Natsuki: I went over this quickly and gave up when I got hungry. It is nearly finished, I think. Now; I am going to get something to eat. Rintrah 10:03, 30 December 2006 (UTC);  Done Good job, Rintrah. These auto-translated articles are always rough. Gzkn 09:38, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Auto show Rintrah 06:36, 29 December 2006 (UTC);  Done, although surely there's more that could be written about the subject than just that dinky paragraph. Gzkn 13:51, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • History of Linux  Done. I think some questions about the article remain, including a need for better referencing. For example, the quote at the end of the "The name Linux" section has no reference, though I assume it's from Torvalds's book. —beverson 22:13, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Additionally, this is my first attempt knocking off an article from the proofread list; please make additional changes as necessary, and please contact me (my talk page, etc.) with any feedback. Thanks. —beverson

    Rintrah 14:34, 18 December 2006 (UTC) | Well, it's improved...— Deckiller 21:51, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

    I made a few touch ups. There doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the terminology. (I come from a country where cricket is popular, although I don't watch the game much). Thanks for doing what I was too tired and unwell to do. Rintrah 07:56, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    I did a run-though, but it still needs a lot of work. — Deckiller 22:09, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Does it need more copyediting work, or just more work to be a better article? If the latter, should we move it to "finished", because we've copyedited everything that is currently there? Galena11 22:48, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, we've done all we probably can do with it. The tone seems to have a lot of misplaced "informal British". — Deckiller 23:07, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Right, I'll move it down to "finished". Galena11 23:48, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Done. | AndonicO Talk | Sign Here 01:22, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Reviewed, wikified, added references. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 03:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • This article is in very bad shape - the LoCE tag on the talk page implies that the entire article was reviewed, and the section of quotes looked much better before - I will probably revert if I can figure out what changed - I've been trying to clean up, but keep finding more and more needs. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 06:17, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Good idea - I did enough cleanup in there that it's no longer dismal, but I'm too tired to look at the prose. Unfortunately, all of that copyedit work just done is based on a very shaky source - I left it all, but Smoking Gun is not a reliable source. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 07:59, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

     Done Rintrah 04:25, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    It would be great if copy-editing this article was given a high priority. The feedback from the FAC has been positive with one exception. One reviewer has given support with reservations for the article due to prose issues. I don't think they are major, if someone here could copy-edit the article and post something at the FAC page here that would be great! Thanks. - Shudda talk 03:25, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    I'll get to this later today. Gzkn 03:48, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Forgot to move this down after my copy-edit. It was promoted on January 20! Woot. Gzkn 05:59, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    I welcome a second opinion, maybe I'm being too modest. --BrokenSphere 05:02, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, I agree. A second opinion would be more assuring. --Tohru Honda13 07:02, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Rintrah has proofread it. --Tohru Honda13 07:34, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

     Done Last proofread by Rintrah. Tohru Honda13 07:34, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

    I looked this article over and only found one or two very minor errors. This article is really good and does not seem to need a copy edit--Puddytang 06:31, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
     DonePunk rock passed WP:FAR. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:19, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Moved down...Tohru Honda13: your signature is reeeaaally long in wikicode :-p Gzkn 09:05, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
     Done The backlog doesn't seem to have many cultured articles. Rintrah 17:19, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Looks good now. --BrokenSphere 05:02, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • Some of the categories were incorrect. It was categorized as a World War II submarine, and launched/sunk in the 30's. I don't think the Type is a VII (those appear to be 30's U-boats), but I left it in as it's not something I'm an expert on. - Itsfullofstars 05:41, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
        • Now I feel silly for not noticing that. There were 2 U-35s, each of which served in a world war, so I've added the uboat.net page for the WW I subject of the article and removed it from the Type VII category, as those were strictly WW II boats. However since there is only one U-35 article, I think a disambiguation page is in order to point out that there were 2 separate U-boats given the same number. --BrokenSphere 06:18, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
