DYK Mary Rose Trust Tweak needed to wording in hook or article

Hello! Your submission of Mary Rose Trust at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know!

I suspect you can just tone up what is said in the article. If you do change the hook, you're very close to the character limit. So be careful not to make it too long.

BTW, when I first lived in Portsmouth, my landlord was Alexander McKee's son. After I had moved out, I was invited round for a meal and Alexander showed slides taken when diving in the Red Sea.--Peter cohen (talk) 21:14, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I've approved Henrik's rewording. Good luck with dealing with the trust people. I think it must be approximately 20 years since I last had contact with Alex jnr, so I can't help through him. (I've just noticed I linked the wrong Alexander McKee. I've now added a dab link to make our one easier to find.)--Peter cohen (talk) 22:08, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Mary Rose peer review

Hello Peter, I noticed your messages at WT:SHIPS and WT:MARITIME about the newly-opened peer review. In the future I suggest that instead of opening a general peer review (where general editor response can be lacking), open a peer review at the Military history WikiProject. Our review process is in no small part the reason for our success and continued throughput of high-quality content month after month. It has been my observation that MILHIST requests are usually responded to much quicker as well with a better quality of review since those reviewing usually have some knowledge of the subject which is beneficial. You do not need to worry about this one because I have enabled cross-listing of this review within the MILHIST framework (we maintain this capability for instances exactly such as this). Thanks, -MBK004 02:51, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestion and helping out with cross-linking. Making the Mary Rose PR into a general history topic was quite intentional, though. I know that MILHIST is an extremely efficient project, and I have a lot of respect for your work. However, since the Mary Rose is about so much more than just military history, particularly maritime archaeology, I didn't want it to be classified as a purely "military" review. MILHIST's input on the military aspects on the Mary Rose, however, will be most welcome.
I'll keep what you said in mind for some future projects I'm doing research for right now.

Anthony roll PR

Glad to help - I also made two more comments on the PR and if I get a chance will try rereading the article to see if anything else jumps out at me. I wonder if it would be possible to make an electronic recreration of the vellum rolls? Stitch together the images from Pepys' book... Just an idea. Thanks again for an interesting and enjoyable read, Ruhrfisch ><>° 22:13, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Korean cuisine GAC

Hi, Peter, I'm sorry to tell you that I can not make the article of Korea cuisine within the promised time. I'm currently busy and stressed out for RL matters, so the major commitment to make the article up to GA status is too much burden for me at this point. I'm only adding something to unsourced BLP from being deleted or minor edits. If I implement the article later and fix all problems that you raised, I will ask for your review. Thank you for your time and patience as well as your all efforts made for the GAC review. --Caspian blue 01:05, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

No problem. The improvements you made still raised the quality of the article. I'd be glad to look at it again if you so wish. You know my main concerns, so next time around shouldn't be too difficult.
Peter 02:05, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
Hey. Please remember to remove the nomination from WP:GAC since the GA review is complete. Thanks -- warrior4321 14:55, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
