I have reviewed your article for GA and placed it on hold. The comments are at ]. The aricle is very thorough. Aside from a few picky prose issues, my main complaint is that it seems somewhat long and repetitious, with too many quotes and examples that do not add more information.

I noticed that you changed the dashes in the titles of all the Pokémon lists from - to –. Could you explain why you did this? Unlike the simple -, the %E2%80%93 kind of dash is not on my keyboard. Moreover, your actions created about 500 double redirects, as there are about 500 Pokémon, and their names redirect to their entries in the lists (a few examples: ], ], ], ]).

Metroid Prime Pinball
I am reviewing your article, Metroid Prime Pinball for GA and have left a few comments at Talk:Metroid Prime Pinball. I am too tired to complete it now, but I will finish it tomorrow. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. Regards, —Mattisse (Talk) 03:38, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Jennifer Hale on Samus Aran voice acting
Might be of use. The bit is right at the beginning. Recalled similar character articles quote what their voice actors think about the character/approach the work so it might be of use. Also oddly she's not mentioned at all in Samus's article, just the 2008 voice actor.
Hope that helps.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 10:09, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
- I don't know to be honest, I've never played them. Though from what's there she clearly says she does. Hale's wikipedia article also credits her as speaking in all three games.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:35, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
DYKs
I've asked about that before and didn't receive an answer as to what it meant. I was shown that the current format was alright and it seemed to match the pages of others. As well as this they were counted on previous occasions. All of the DYKs were nominated this year if that's what you mean (I'm not sure if that's what you were asking?). In fact half of them are currently on the Main Page, another quarter were on earlier today and as I'm the creator and main contributor to them all I would be the most likely nominator too. Other than that I'm not entirely sure what you mean but I hope it helps. :) --➨♀♂Candlewicke S# :) 03:54, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
- Oh right. Yeah. I asked about that somewhere too. Especially since #2 was actually put onto the page by someone in my absence. So #1 doesn't count? Sorry about that, I may have misunderstood you - I thought you were questioning my honesty and how I have had so many DYKs suddenly appear on the page in the past few hours. --➨♀♂Candlewicke S# :) 04:14, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
- How will I recover all of those now? I'd thought I was doing it right. --➨♀♂Candlewicke S# :) 04:16, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
- Not especially, no. There was a backlog of some sort and I've a load being rushed through now. --➨♀♂Candlewicke S# :) 04:19, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
- I'm just after finding a load of links but now there's an edit conflict on my page in another window for some reason. 'Tis very tiresome. Yet if I ignore I'll probably do more damage. --➨♀♂Candlewicke S# :) 04:39, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
- But I shouldn't be losing points? The ones that I've added far outweigh two in number... --➨♀♂Candlewicke S# :) 04:47, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

your opinion please...
I'd like to ask your opinion. Did you see this reply? Do you think evading an indefinite block is a valid reason to post from an anonymous IP?

Thank you!
Thank you for adding the access dates to Port of Albany-Rensselaer's citations. I had thought all of them had access dates and didnt know that was what was lacking. I will go ahead and look to see if more citations do not have the access dates. Thank you again for help! I hope someday I can repay the good deed.Camelbinky (talk) 21:18, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
- I figured out that I had access dates on the cite webs, but they weren't showing up on the references section due to a space being between access and date instead of it being spelled accessdate. Should I go ahead and remove your accessdate's and fix the original access dates? Or should I just edit out the old access dates? Or should I just leave it?Camelbinky (talk) 21:07, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
RE: Homer's Barbershop Quartet
Sure, I'll get it sometime next week. —TheLeftorium 16:24, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
Outliers (book)
I have reviewed your article for GA and placed it on hold. The comments are at Talk:Outliers (book)/GA1. The aricle is very thorough. Aside from a few picky prose issues, my main complaint is that it seems somewhat long and repetitious, with too many quotes and examples that do not add more information. (And the enigmatic behavior of J. Robert Oppenheimer was left hanging - he tried to poison his tutor but was able to "compromise"!) Regards, —Mattisse (Talk) 19:32, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
en dash
I noticed that you changed the dashes in the titles of all the Pokémon lists from - to –. Could you explain why you did this? Unlike the simple -, the %E2%80%93 kind of dash is not on my keyboard. Moreover, your actions created about 500 double redirects, as there are about 500 Pokémon, and their names redirect to their entries in the lists (a few examples: Spearow, Fearow, Ekans, Arbok).
