• MQS, I'd economize: ... that the commercial success of the Shrek franchise inspired the makers of the 2007 CGI children's film Donkey Xote to make their donkey character resemble "Donkey" from Shrek? But what I'd really like is a way to get Giulia Marletta in there for a double DYK...

• I weighed in on Template:Did you know nominations/National Association of Drug Court Professionals, which should count, but I am going to leave my mark all over that page. ;) Drmies (talk) 23:54, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

• HEY! Can we get some attention here? Thanks! Drmies (talk) 20:07, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
• I've added 3 Citation needed tags to the Marletta article. Why not use the picture? It's stunning. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:03, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
  • I'm fine with that. Doc may have even better ones on his cell phone. I left him a note; I can't deal with the tags. Ha, thanks for responding to my cry for help, Crisco. You're a good human. Someday I'll forgive you for promoting that Twitter nonsense, haha. Drmies (talk) 23:43, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
    • Human, eh? Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:55, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
      • I have been performing research off-line to obtain references to solve for the cn templates. I will try to get a chance to upload references to clear two of the templates tomorrow. Doc2234 (talk) 01:37, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

• As far as I can see, there were a bunch of edits made on May 12, though nothing was reported here. Is it ready to go? Does it need more work? Let's get this moving. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:19, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

Looks good. ALT2. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:31, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
