First Battle of the Stronghold

Julius Caesar

  • Shakers - well-written. thorough. Kingturtle 05:03, 12 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • I would support this - but some patching is required to repair the hole created by the recent move of material, from which Ann Lee was created. Mkmcconn 16:27, 12 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • I added back in a shorter section on Mother Ann -- hopefully this addresses the issue... -- BCorr ¤ Брайен 16:48, 12 Dec 2003 (UTC)
      • Thank you.

Battle of Aljubarrota

Thou

  • Thou - as complete as I know to make it, and I think it's fairly interesting for an article on grammar. Smerdis of Tlön 16:20, 10 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • Seconded. As near perfect an article on a pronoun as you could reasonably expect. Bmills 16:33, 10 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Ackermann function

  • Ackermann function - I contributed a large amount to this article, and am even translating it over to es.wikipedia. I mention the use as a benchmark for compilers, and added a table of values. -- Pakaran 20:24, 8 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • Second. If I could follow this, it can't be bad. Bmills 10:19, 16 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Peer review

Action potential

Titanium

  • Titanium - self nomination. This is a reference article showing everything I want all the chemical element articles to be. If this isn't "brilliant prose" yet I would be very interested to know what else can be done to improve it (and then apply that to the whole WikiProject). --mav 07:47, 28 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Zionism

  • Zionism - Adam, Zero, and Danny, et al. have done a great job of putting together a lot of different takes on a complex subject without the "critics say" crutches that so many of our articles rely on. Somebody new to the topic could come out with lots of useful information. DanKeshet
    • Seconded. Learnt a lot reading that article. Seemed very balanced : ChrisG 01:04, 9 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • Second that, especially the bit about non-use of "some say" weaseling. Dandrake 01:29, Dec 9, 2003 (UTC)
