FLC vote
I noticed that you left a comment on Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Atlantic Coast Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year/archive1. Your detail has been fixed in the article and, since you're someone who has commented on that FLC, I was wondering if you'd be willing to go in again and either vote support or oppose (obviously with reasons if opposed) to try and reach a consensus on whether it should be a FL or not. Thanks! Jrcla2 talk 18:37, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

Virginia FAC
Giants2008, you commented on the article on Virginia on its FAC page recently, and I wanted to let you know we corrected the one issue you brought up. I was hoping you could see that it properly refers to the NASCAR races now, and maybe give your approval on the FAC page. Thanks again for commenting!-- Patrick {oѺ∞} 22:43, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi Giants. You nominated this for removal a week or so ago. I've been working on it to address your concerns, would you be kind enough, when you get the chance, to reappraise it against the issues you found? Thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:14, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

1999 Marlboro 500 (Needs to be Extended)
If you know about the 1999 Marlboro 500 at Fontana in which Greg Moore was killed on the 9th lap, needs some more information. Most importantly, the fastest lap of the race which was Christian Fittipaldi, but I don't know the time and what lap was it. If you could please extend the article, I will really appreciated because your extension of the 2001 American Memorial was great, hope you could do the same thing with the 1999 Marlboro 500. --Talladega87 (talk)
Seattle Sounders FC FA review
First, thanks for your comments on the review page. I've addressed all of your specific comments and have attempted to do a more thorough copy edit of the entire article as has been suggested. I discovered some tutorials and they have helped me immensely. That said, I'm definitely still a novice at this, so I look forward to any further comments you have on the article. Thanks again! --SkotyWATalk|Contribs 07:53, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
Question
Giants, you may or may not know, but I'm going to be on vacation for three weeks in December, and my Internet access will be limited (if not nonexistent); my Wiki inactivity might extend even longer than that. Obviously, this is going to disrupt FLC a little bit. Given the circumstances (TRM is moving and IMatthew is busy), would you consider stepping in as an interim delegate for that period? There's absolutely no pressure, but if you could do it, I would be extremely grateful. Dabomb87 (talk) 02:57, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you! Dabomb87 (talk) 16:25, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
- Also, I saw you adding en dashes to Quest Field; you might try User:GregU/dashes.js—an improved version of Brighterorange's dash script that works even for sports scores. Dabomb87 (talk) 22:43, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Hey man, thanks for reviewing List of Minnesota Vikings starting quarterbacks. Without your help, we wouldn't have yet another featured list here! As a follow-up to that list, you may have noticed that I have now nominated List of Minnesota Vikings head coaches for featured list status. I would therefore like to ask you to make a couple of comments about that list, provided that you have enough spare time on your hands. Many thanks. – PeeJay 10:53, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Handing off the baton...
OK, I just made my last round of regular closures for the year. I might close a couple more on Thursday or Friday, but it depends on my schedule and on the FLCs that I'm keeping tabs on. Other than that, it will be you and TRM bringing in the New Year and beyond, until I settle back in to everyday life in January. I have no doubt that you will do a great job with closing FLCs. Here are the closing instructions, if you don't already know them. Just a couple notes on individual FLCs:
- List of World War I aces credited with more than 20 victories (FLC) – See my note here since you might be closing this one.
- Gwen Stefani discography (FLC) – I'm recused on this one, and TRM reviewed it, so you will have to close this.
Good luck, and thanks again, Dabomb87 (talk) 23:59, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Hello, Giants2008! This is just a note thanking you for participating in my recent Request for Adminship, which passed with a total of 93 support !votes, 1 oppose and 3 editors remaining neutral. While frankly overwhelmed by the level of support, I humbly thank the community for the trust it has placed in me, and vow to use the tools judiciously and without malice. |

Rod Laver
You said the Rod Laver pic at List_of_French_Open_Men's_Singles_champions was suspect so now someone has removed it. According to multiple websites including autralianhistory.org it is public domain. Could you please elaborate? Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 08:05, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
Great..
... to see you at FLC and making sure we don't drown in a backlog! As of today I think I've reviewed all but two of the FLCs, and as far as I can recall, I didn't !vote in any of them. Preferably, if I've left a lengthy list of issues I'd prefer to avoid closure, but no big issue. Anyway, I think the only thing we're missing now is reviewers, not much we can do about that at the moment, especially given the time of year. All the best, The Rambling Man (talk) 00:04, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
I've corrected all my mistakes from your comments and replied on the FLC page. Thanks for a great critique of the list. Those punctuation errors were a good find. Thanks again. NThomas (talk) 04:48, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
Hi, Giants2008! First of all, thanks for your review. Since you had not replied there in several days, I was wondering if I have not sufficiently addressed the issues you raised. Please feel free to let me know if there are any more improvements you are expecting. ≈ Chamal talk ¤ 11:00, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
FLC stuff
No problems. When I do a review, it's usually a line-by-line job and as I'm sure you're aware, I try to do it for every single FLC. We'll just have to see how it pans out if we don't get a few more reviewers. When I first started at FLC it wasn't uncommon to have 60 lists nominated. Right now we very rarely get above 40, so things aren't quite as bad as they may seem. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:04, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

FLC List of National Treasures of Japan (paintings)
Hi Giants2008! I re-nominated List of National Treasures of Japan (paintings) at FLC after the previous nomination failed due to a lack of reviews. The list has virtually not changed since then.

Hello, I just noticed that someone switched your name with iMatthew in the list of directors [1]. Looking through the talk page discussion, I didn't see any final decision about you becoming a full director. I just wanted to make sure that you, DaBomb and TRM are aware of the change. Congratulations, I'm sure you'll do a greta job. Good luck, and have fun. -- Scorpion0422 21:50, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

WikiCup
Interested in signing up? ;) iMatthew talk at 22:58, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
The 2010 WikiCup begins tomorrow!
Welcome to the biggest WikiCup Wikipedia has yet seen! Round one will take place over two months, and finish on February 26. There is only one pool, and the top 64 will progress. The competition will be tough, as more than half of the current competitors will not make it to round 2. Details about scoring have been finalized and are explained at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring. Please make sure you're familiar with the scoring rules, because any submissions made that violate these rules will be removed. Like always, the judges can be reached through the WikiCup talk pages, on their talk page, or over IRC with any issues concerning anything tied to the Cup. We will keep in contact with you via weekly newsletters; if you do not want to receive them, please remove yourself from the list here. Conversely, if a non-WikiCup participant wishes to receive the newsletters, they may add themselves to that list. Well, enough talk- get writing! Your submission's page is located here. Details on how to submit your content is located here, so be sure to check that out! Once content has been recognized, it can be added to your submissions page, from which our bot will update the main score table. Remember that only articles worked on and nominated during the competition are eligible for points. Have fun, and good luck! Garden, iMatthew, J Milburn, and The ed17 19:19, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
