:Hi there @Blaze Wolf. Thanks again for your feedback on this. If you had time, could you take another look at my article, which is now updated with sources/citations? @Tails Wx mentioned below that they would leave it to another reviewer after my improvements. Many thanks. Looktowindward (talk) 08:03, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

::Actually, some sources don’t have significant coverage of Shaughnessy, and therefore doesn’t satisfy notability guidelines, per Blaze’s second decline reason above. On second thought, it needs more work. Tails Wx 12:43, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

:Hi there. Many thanks for the review and the help. I accidentally submitted the article before adding my sources/citations to the text, which I have here as a list. They are now in the text (both as refs to contributions to graphic design, and also, importantly, to articles where the subject is Adrian himself). Looktowindward (talk) 14:24, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

::I am also referencing the published works now. Thanks. Looktowindward (talk) 14:40, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

:::It looks better, I'll leave it up to another reviewer. Good work on the improvements! Tails Wx 15:31, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

Unblocking my IP address

{{unblock reviewed|reason=A block was put on my IP address (the message suggested my IP was within a 'range' that included accounts which had been abusive). I have not been abusive on the site. I am currently accessing Wikipedia via another Wifi to write this, so as yet haven't checked at home if the block has already been lifted (I left a message for the person who had blocked the IP, via another account I set up, but they have not replied yet). Thanks.|decline=You have not provided your IP so we can look into this.
