User:KristaUOW/White House investigating leak of G20 Summit leaders' personal information
Hi. I really was sorry this didn't quite work out, because the underlying story of the accidental email made me lol (and the article looked pretty solid in most respects; I was rooting for it to pass). See my review comments, and (short, but still not without interest) . --Pi zero (talk) 23:37, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

Hello! I am sorry that I took incredibly long to reply. I just wanted to say I thoroughly appreciate your time and effort to review my articles and give me helpful feedback. You've given me pointers in the past and it seems that I've been able to improve everything except the timing! Just wanted you to know I do read and value your comments. Thank you!

Philadelphia derailment
I've just been pointing out to someone else, WN:WRITE says one of the first things you should do when undertaking to write an article is to check the main page and the newsroom to see if it's already been, or being, covered. There are already two articles on the review queue about this story. Admittedly, it can be an exercise in frustration if multiple people contribute to a single article and it gets not-ready'd on review because of a goof by one person; but from a reviewer's perspective, it's rather unpleasant to have to decide which of several articles about a single story to review. --Pi zero (talk) 13:24, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Thank you! I checked the newsroom before starting the article and somehow overlooked BOTH developing articles. I must have searched a word that was not used in either article title. Sorry for the inconvenience. KristaUOW (talk) 13:50, 13 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Sometimes when you look at the newsroom, the page hasn't been updated by the wiki software, so you're looking at out-of-date information. There's a "refresh" button on the page, somewhere.  I've also now tweaked the link to the newsroom from WN:WRITE so that following that link automatically forces an update of the page.  --Pi zero (talk) 16:01, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
