Hello! I am looking for someone who can help me with my first GA review. I haven't done any yet. I have just nominated Campaigns of Amda Seyon, and I am planning to get into a GA review circle, so I'll probably be reviewing whichever article I get in that group. I am interested in history, military history, Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa, although I am willing to look at other subjects too. The only thing I am not clear about is how strict to be about things like prose and source checking. Kristos talk 16:39, 22 October 2026 (UTC)

Hey @Kristos: I'm happy to help out! Feel free to ping me as you get started with your first review and I'll take a look and give you feedback. Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 19:23, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
@Jishara: Thank you! I'm joining a review circle now, so I'll ping you once I get my article assigned. Kristos talk 21:22, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
Sounds good! Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 22:03, 22 October 2026 (UTC)
@Kristos: I decided to just set up the circle so your article has been assigned to you, I'll ping when it's time for you to start your review. Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 05:58, 23 October 2026 (UTC)
Alright thanks. Kristos talk 06:05, 23 October 2026 (UTC)
@Jishara: My review is up at Talk:1949 Liechtenstein general election/GA1 and I've put it on hold. Would appreciate your feedback when you have time. Kristos talk 20:43, 25 October 2026 (UTC)
@Kristos: in general your review is very solid, and you covered all the main factors. Two other little things I'd note - want me to put a comment on the review or just let you know here? Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 13:42, 26 October 2026 (UTC)
Let me know here. Kristos talk 15:40, 26 October 2026 (UTC)
My two minor additional comments would be that " campaigned on protecting their interests is a quite vague platform and if any more clarity can be added that'd be great, and also that it's slightly non-neutral to have an image of one party's leader but not the other Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 15:44, 26 October 2026 (UTC)
@Jishara: Thanks, I'll work those in. Also, Bgsu98 has withdrawn from reviewing my article, Campaigns of Amda Seyon (1332–1333) (diff), and the review page has been deleted. Since I've completed my review for the circle, could someone else pick it up, or could it be reassigned? Kristos talk 18:15, 26 October 2026 (UTC)
@Kristos: I've reassigned it to A.Cython since they were previously reviewing Bgsu's article, which Bgsu also withdrew, and had not completed their initial review. You and them should both be pinged.

@Jishara: All the issues in my review at Talk:1949 Liechtenstein general election/GA1 have been addressed. I'm planning to pass it, could you take a quick look first? Kristos talk 20:21, 30 October 2026 (UTC)
@Kristos: from what I can tell it looks fine - I don't have access to the sources but you seem to have done a thorough check. I did one tiny CE thing. I'd support you passing it! Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 21:18, 30 October 2026 (UTC)
