• Hey, wait a second, where's your QPQ? Abyssal (talk) 14:47, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

• Note to reviewer: QPQs are not required when an article is nominated by someone who is not also the creator/expander. (That's what "Not a self-nom" means in the comment: only self-nominations are subject to quid pro quo.) A request: it would help those of us who promote articles if your reviews explained what you checked. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:45, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

• Looks like it's back to being good to go, then! Abyssal (talk) 15:16, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
