message: Please refrain from translating the title into several different languages in the lead. A long list of title translations interrupts the flow of the lead and is not necessary. If every book title in the WP database was translated into dozens of different languages in the lead, WP owuld be little more than a list of book titles in hundreds of langauges!

thread_title: Title in other languages

message: Howdy Kathyrncelestewright et al - I've read the article and enjoyed it very much - nice work! I'd have a few informal suggestions and comments to make to try and help make what is a good article even better.  If everyone is cool with the feedback and some improvements could be done, then I'd be happy to do a formal GA article assessment.  So without further ado,
In a nutshell (oops! there's a pun :-), methinks that even though Thumbelina, of course, is a little person :-), the article itself is a little on the thin side, so I think, in general, a few judicious expansions and factoid additions would really help spruce things up.  Other than that, just a few neutrality things could use some fixing.
Lead How about a bit of plot description here? You know 'Thumbelina is a tiny girl who meets all these freaky animals who want to marry her,..' etc...

Talk:Dede Barry

message: I'm going to argue for the retention of the references recently removed as "advertising". Perhaps it is of some relevance, though not (yet) noted in the article that it is highly unusual for a modern-day professional bike racer to use a steel framed bike. Almost all use space age components and their bikes are supplied by sponsors, not home-built by family members. It was the last time since I-don't-know-when that a racer, male or female, won an important race with a steel-framed bike. Hence, the bike and its builder are of at least passing interest in themselves.

Talk:Battle of Buffington Island

message: This is a well written article. Unfortunately, it just missed B class for a few reasons I've mentioned below. A few suggestions:
1. Needs more in text citations - the most common issue with most articles that dont make it to B class.
2. Images, infoboxes and supporting material is needed - pictures/paintings of the battle and the main generals/combatants is also a good idea.
3. Add a map of the location and troop engagements and movements if possible.
Overall, this page is quite good and can easily make the A class or GA criteria. Once it gets to B-class, theres very little to stop it from getting a better rating. The citing of book sources is also good, and indicates the level of research that has gone into this page. Good work & Good luck.

Talk:Megarian Decree

message: Quite a few changes have gone on to this article since i first expanded it and its taken a bit of a path towards personal opinion. The subject of the importance of the Megarian decree is a highly debatable topic, as it stands at the moment this article seems to have come to the conclusion that the decree was the most significant factor which at least according to Thucydides is certainly not the case and is a modern theory. SO in that respect this article is misleading and needs to be rebalanced. I will do so eventually but i'm busy at the moment. If anyone disagrees do tell. - TiberiusInvictus

For more talk about the datum issue read the Summit elevations discussion on the project discussion page. I don't know if this link will work once the discussion page gets archived.
