I made the following change [1], please verify those are correct. Coumans in particular should be fine, the original version was published in 2010, and was online afterwards (2011), but I don't know if the Janda changes are correct or if you had another source in mind.

Yup, both right – thank you very much! Those were definitely oversights on my part. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 00:48, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thanks for reviewing a submission at Did you know!

In the review, you mentioned that you don't know how to check whether someone is exempt from the QPQ requirement.

People are not required to do a quid pro quo review for the first five submissions they make at DYK. You can see how many reviews someone has made by clicking "QPQ check" in the toolbox on the left side of the nomination. That will take you to this page. Just put in the nominator's username, and it will show you how many DYK credits they have. If they have 5 or more, they need a QPQ. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 21:43, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@The Squirrel Conspiracy: Thank you! Will be sure to use that in future :) AleatoryPonderings (talk) 22:04, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, AleatoryPonderings, and welcome to Women in Red. Although you've only been contributing for a couple of weeks, I see you have already created a variety of articles including four interesting biographies of women. As you are interested in law, you might find some women deserving coverage in our Wikidata list of redlinks on law or in the other topics covered by our redlists. If you haven't already done so, you might find it useful to look through our Ten Simple Rules. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 10:31, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

	The Writer's Barnstar
	For Annie Rothwell. Eostrix  (🦉 hoot hoot🦉]) 16:07, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Eostrix: Thank you so much! And thanks for your help on the article! AleatoryPonderings (talk) 16:09, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just minor perfunctory categories, this was well rounded when you placed it in main space. I see you placed it at Template:Did you know nominations/Annie Rothwell, and I think this would be great on the main page! I do suggest you try a more catchy hook, like maybe: "... that Annie Rothwell was a renowned Canadian War poet?". --Eostrix  (^{🦉 hoot} _hoot🦉]) 16:18, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi I’ve just reviewed Mary Caesar. Thanks for creating such a well-sourced article. Mccapra (talk) 15:44, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Mccapra: I love baklava—thank you! Was a bit nervous about creating an article for the author of a single, somewhat bizarre, work, so glad that it turned out OK :) AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:50, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazal world: Thanks! I was a little nervous about creating my first article adapted from a public domain source—glad it worked out :) AleatoryPonderings (talk) 18:11, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am sorry, but I unreviewed the page. There seems some copyvio. Can you please fix or explain it ? Dont't worry. The page will be reviewed later. --Gazal world (talk) 18:15, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazal world: Happy to explain. The text is adapted from this source (flagged in the sources section of the article) which is in the public domain in the United States, since it was published in 1899. By my understanding, all works published in the United States before 1925 are in the public domain, and can be used for any purpose. When I checked the page on the Earwig copyvio tool, it picked up this source as well, which is definitely in the public domain because it is a law from the 18th century. Hopefully this clears things up? AleatoryPonderings (talk) 18:19, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. I checked it now. Thanks for explaining. I have reviewed the article again. Sorry for inconvenience. Keep doing good work. Happy editing. Regards. --Gazal world (talk) 18:21, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
