Wikipedia:Good article help#Einar Jolin

I was going to start reviewing the article, nominated by User:LLcentury in May, but noticed his user page says he has retired. What happens to the nomination? Amitchell125 (talk) 16:06, 15 September 2019 (UTC

Hi all, this relates to the post above. There was a brief discussion at WT:GA where there seemed to be some interest in further consolidating GA-related discussion pages. While this page was clearly set up with an interesting and distinct scope, it seems like good article help requests are mostly going to Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations (for many examples, see its most recent archive). So my question: should we close this help desk? "Closing" would probably mean marking this page as historical, removing the tab from the GA-pages header, moving the resources to the GA instructions page, and linking the archives to one of the more highly trafficked talk pages (as at the top of WT:GA). Thoughts? Ajpolino (talk) 20:45, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

:{{done}} based on the feedback at the previous discussion and here, I've gone ahead and marked this page as historical with a note redirecting discussion to Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations. I'll make sure the resources at the top of this page are linked elsewhere and that the archives are linked elsewhere, and then I'll de-link this page from the GA-pages header. Just noting changes here so that it's easy to undo in the future if this page get re-opened for business. Cheers. Ajpolino (talk) 00:36, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

Are there any norms or guidelines around whether nominee and reviewers can review one another's work?

I had an article, Edith Hern Fossett, that went through the GA process and it was reviewed by {{u|SusunW}}. She has now nominated an article, Marie Rennotte, that I would like to review. Is there an issue with that? Thanks so much!–CaroleHenson (talk) 05:57, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

:{{u|Ajpolino}}, I just noticed that this page is inactive. Can you help me with the question or let me know where I could ask the question? Thanks so much!–CaroleHenson (talk) 06:00, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

::{{reply|CaroleHenson}}, there's no issue with that. As long as you feel you can review the article impartially, you're free to do so. In the future if you have questions about the GA process (however small) feel free to ask at Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations. More folks watch that page so you're likely to get a quicker response. Happy reviewing! There's a pretty substantial backlog of unreviewed articles now, so every thorough review helps!

:::{{u|Ajpolino}}, Excellent, thank you! I am definitely a thorough reviewer.–CaroleHenson (talk) 02:47, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
