-->&nbsp;The comment the reviewer left was:

{{divbox|blue|3=Page probably meets notability criteria but contains numerous spelling and basic grammatical errors that require correcting.
Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being the subject, you must declare that on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link). In instances of a conflict of interest, the review of the page needs to be handled with care, mindful of the higher bar set by pages produced in circumstances of such a conflict. Such pages typically may read too much like a promotional CV or advertorial (see WP:PROMO ↗), which Wikipedia is not ↗; and/or contain prose that is not of a standard appropriate for an encyclopaedia (also see WP:PEACOCK ↗ and WP:NPV ↗).
Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements, then please make the necessary amendments before resubmitting the page.
It would help our volunteer reviewers by identifying, on the draft's talk page ↗, the WP:THREE ↗ best sources that establish notability ↗ of the subject.
It would also be helpful if you could please identify ''with specificity'', exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:NCORP criteria #3, because XXXXX").
Once you have implemented these suggestions, you may also wish to leave a note for me on my talk page, including the name of the draft page, and I would be happy to reassess. As I said, I do think this draft has potential so please do persevere.}} Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer.

Edits to 'Transistor–transistor logic' contain text indicating citations but no actual citations have been added



Hey there, I noticed that you have made additions ↗ to the 'History' section of 'Transistor–transistor logic ↗'. The text that you have added indicates a number of citations (note the numbers enclosed in square brackets) but none of the actual citations have been added. Was the text pasted from somewhere? If yes, please note that this might run afoul of rules regarding copyright. If no, please see this page ↗ for help on how to add citations. wneo (talk) 09:05, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

:I appreciate the help. Sorry, I wrote that section, and retrived the real citations. I've been editing in word, and then pasting into WP. I guess I didn't get the reference format right. Any advice on a better workflow? Getting the citations right is a slow process. I'm trying to edit more in source mode.
:I'll get it fixed. WhaleFarm (talk) 13:13, 18 February 2026 (UTC)
:I've applied a fix. I really appreciate you finding this. It would be great if you check my work. Any advice appreciated. WhaleFarm (talk) 13:40, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

Review of ChatGPT ↗



I noticed that you wrote a GA review for ChatGPT ↗. Thank you for this. However, it was noticed that the review shows some LLM signs. There is a heightened degree of sensitivity with regard to LLMs for the GA-process, so whether or not you actually did use LLMs as part of the review, some do not look favorably on this, so in the future please try to "steer clear" of anything that might smell like a transformer. Just letting you know and thanks again for helping out. There is a mentorship request section if you would like guidance for GA reviewing as well. It has helped me a lot as I have made my first few tentative GA reviews. Pietrus1 (talk) 01:40, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

:Thanks for the note. I use dictation, as my high speed typing days are behind me. The creative content is all mine, but the typing is not. Any advice on how to use dictation without smelling? My over-use of passive voice, and a lot of adjectives, probably don't help.
:I would love to pick up a mentor on this, where do I look? The logistics of the first review were painful. WhaleFarm (talk) 03:30, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
::On the first point, I think that is reasonable, but I would not be the best person to ask there. Maybe @HurricaneZeta can offer assistance. On the second point, mentorship is available at WP:Good article mentorship ↗. Pietrus1 (talk) 04:32, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
:::I can help with mentorship, though it would be better to start fresh on a new review. I commend you for wanting to review GANs, especially this one, but there is a process and someone ↗ said the review was improper (which is how I got alerted to this).

::::Thanks for the offer. I started down the GA path as self tutoring into how all of the SP plumbing works. Looks like it bit off a big chunk. Do you recomend a good article to start? Maybe with less than 250 references?
::::there's a lot of material about what makes a GA, but little tutorial about the process. Any insight on expected protocol/ interaction with other editors would help. What is the normal interaction/colaboration. What would you think about mentoring me on the CIH article? It seems reasonable in scope. WhaleFarm (talk) 15:38, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

:::::::You've made a lot of good recommendations. Keep in mind that things which are recommended, but are not required by the MoS/policy an be ignored by the nominator in theory.

::::::::I will also say that not failing a review (which could probably be justified on the basis of what you pointed out) and sticking with it is also something I support. Pietrus1 (talk) 20:39, 1 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::::The review looks much better now! One thing I would suggest is to look through all the paragraphs - is everything cited? Are the cited sources reliable? Some scripts make this easier: User:Phlsph7/HighlightUnreferencedPassages.js adds a button that highlights passages that are not supported by sources, and User:SuperHamster/CiteUnseen and User:Headbomb/unreliable.js highlight citations based on their reliability. If there are any issues with that, you should raise it at the nomination.
:::::::GA only requires compliance with five MOS sections, which are MOS:LEAD ↗, MOS:LAYOUT ↗, MOS:WTW ↗, MOS:FICTION ↗ (which doesn't apply here), and MOS:EMBED ↗. So don't feel overwhelmed, as these are simple and pretty intuitive. Since it's a large article, my opinion is that you should leave a final opinion endorsing the nomination once you're satisfied it meets all the criteria, and then request a second opinion. <span style="background-color:#ffd98c; color:black">'''Hurricane'''</span><span style="background-color:#ffd98c; color:black">'''Zeta'''</span><sup>C ↗</sup> 16:55, 2 April 2026 (UTC)

Good Article June Backlog



Hey, thanks for your reviews! I noticed you've been successfully closing reviews on the talk pages, but the review themselves aren't "closed." Most of the folks use the GANReviewTool, so they don't need to remember all the templates. Would you check out that user script and revisit your reviews? If you install that script you'll see options to close the review on the page. They have also automated updating the talk page and listing the it within the Good Article categories. Let me know if you have any questions. Matthew Yeager (talk) 00:02, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

:Thank you for noticing. I've installed the tool, but it doesn't run if you've gone as far as I have in doing it manually. It look like I have to put the atopr on the talk page, and abot at the bottom. Correct? WhaleFarm (talk) 03:31, 10 June 2026 (UTC)
::That's it! If the review passed <code><nowiki>{{atopg |status= |result=Passed. ~~~~}}</nowiki></code> or else if it failed <code><nowiki>{{atopr |status= |result=Unsuccessful. ~~~~}}</nowiki></code>, and then like you said, <code><nowiki>{{abot}}</nowiki></code> at the bottom. Thanks! Matthew Yeager (talk) 03:49, 10 June 2026 (UTC)
:::OK, I think I've got that right. Thanks again, I see you did part of the fix. Glad for the mentoring WhaleFarm (talk) 04:05, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

GA template



Hi, in these ↗ promotions ↗ the GA templates did not have a topic or page number. Just thought I'd check if you used a particular tool, as it was not an isolated incident so I'm wondering if there is a technical issue. Thanks, CMD (talk) 02:15, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

:At that time, I had not discovered the script, and I thought I was following the instructions on the GA page. I assume I screwed up. I've applied a fix. It would be great if you'de check my work. I assume there were just the two cases. Thanks WhaleFarm (talk) 02:53, 22 June 2026 (UTC)
::Looks fixed, thanks. You don't have to use the script, if doing manually just copy the topic and page from the GAN template to the GA template. Best, CMD (talk) 05:31, 22 June 2026 (UTC)
