Civil servants
David Bednar was notable as a theatre exec, in the corporate world. But his legacy is as general manager of an independent non profit corp, the Canadian National Exhibition Association. There's no category for government employees... Do I just put him under the businessperson section? -- Zanimum (talk) 21:34, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
- There a politics and government category, which might be appropriate for civil servants? Cordless Larry (talk) 09:02, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the response. I'm not sure he's a "political figure", though. Would it be kosher to create a new subcategory of "Politics and government"? -- Zanimum (talk) 18:25, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
- Sorry, Zanimum, I missed your reply. Did you get this sorted? Cordless Larry (talk) 10:26, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Good article reassessment backlog
There is a backlog of articles waiting for community reassessment at Misplaced Pages:Good article reassessment, and DragonZero informs me that they're the only editor who has been closing these for the past year or so. That doesn't seem fair to me, so assistance from other editors would be welcome. Cordless Larry (talk) 17:19, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
Assistance
It seems that a reviewer for an article that I nominated has disappeared. Would anyone care to take a look? RGloucester — ☎ 15:26, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
- Apparently you are right; I wonder if you scared them off. I see however that they are very active elsewhere and that you have not tried to contact them. Could you please send positive statements their way, encouraging them to return? If that does not work, you will have to reset and try again; I can help you with the necessary paperwork if that is needed. Good luck. Prhartcom (talk) 15:51, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
- The user has not responded to my talk page query. I do not see why I should have to reset. The article was in the queue for months prior to being picked up. RGloucester — ☎ 17:44, 14 June 2015 (UTC)
- I've posted a reminder about your message on their talk page, just in case they missed or forgot your message. Cordless Larry (talk) 17:56, 14 June 2015 (UTC)
- He's asked for someone else to complete the review, as he's occupied. RGloucester — ☎ 18:43, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
