Age infobox[edit]

I see that you removed the age entries from Lina Inverse and Naga the Serpent, saying that they are "depreciated". Could you point me towards the the topic where I can look such guidelines up? I must admit that I currently cannot truly understand what was wrong with that information. --Pip25 (talk) 20:35, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information, I'll keep my eye on the thread. There was nothing serious with the edit, I guess depending on the outcome I might just work the age info into the article lead. --Pip25 (talk) 19:49, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewer granted[edit]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' editson certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:32, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bill Millin[edit]

I'm afraid I'm about to go away from the internet for a week Itzjustdrama, but if no-one else has uploaded the pic for you in my absence I'll do it when I get back. Alternatively you can followthese guidelines to do it yourself. As I said, I think the Sun image is fine, but I'd rather get a second opinion on the other (slightly more suitable) images.Ranger Steve (talk) 18:05, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've uploaded the image of Bill piping here and put it into the infobox of the article page. I would normally move the existing lead image somewhere else in the article, but on this occasion as there is so little room I've temporarily removed it. You can easily re-add it when you extend the article though. Good luck! Ranger Steve(talk) 21:17, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
