You have a great day, from CathMontgomery

We are looking for urgent help, from experienced editors, in reviewing submissions in the pending submissions queue. Currently the are 1239 submissions waiting to be reviewed. Do you have what it takes? Are you familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines? Do you know what Wikipedia is and is not? Do you have a working knowledge of the Manual of Style, particularly article naming conventions? Are you autoconfirmed? Can you review submissions based on their individual merits? If the answer to these questions is yes, then please read the reviewing instructions and donate a little of your time to helping tackle the backlog.

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Me-having-fun-outside.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 03:55, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Eeekster, thanks for pointing that out. I'm new at this. I've changed the settings on the Flickr photo of me on Flickr, as I don't mind who reproduces my photos (and I am surprised they would want to :-) Please let me know if I need to do anything else, thanks!

Do you have what it takes?

1. Are you familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines?
2. Do you know what Wikipedia is and is not?
3. Do you have a working knowledge of the Manual of Style, particularly article naming conventions?
4. Can you review submissions based on their individual merits?

If the answer to these questions is yes, then please read the reviewing instructions and donate a little of your time to helping tackle the backlog. You might wish to add {{AFC status}} or {{AfC Defcon}} to your userpage, which will alert you to the number of open submissions. Plus, reviewing is easy when you use our new semi-automated reviewing script!

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Meditation you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of ChrisGualtieri -- ChrisGualtieri (talk) 05:40, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

thanks. I have participated in a couple of Good Article reviews in the past, so I appreciate the effort involved. Thanks again, CathMontgomery (talk) 13:27, 6 January 2014 (UTC).[reply]

The article Meditation you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Meditation for things which need to be addressed.
