Wikipedia talk:Peer review

MainUnansweredInstructionsDiscussionToolsArchiveProject Requesting new reviewer I requested a peer review for an article I've been working on, Tsuneari Fukuda. Unfortunately, the review I have received was not much of a review at all. I would appreciate if someone else might do me the favour of taking a look. Yours, &c. RGloucester — ☎ 04:09, 29 December 2025 (UTC) Peer review isn't like GA or DYK nomination -- it's normal and expected that more than one editor will review a nomination, and that different editors will do so in different levels of depth. There's no need to close a review page once the first person has given their perspective, unless you think you've got all the input you need from the process. UndercoverClassicist T·C 14:59, 24 January 2026 (UTC) @RGloucester: I would also recommend keeping the PR open if you want additional comments. If looking for more reviewers, I suggest posting on the Wikiprojects attached to the article. You can also review PRs from editors who have similar articles and ask them to take a look at your article in exchange. Z1720 (talk) 15:03, 24 January 2026 (UTC) I've washed my hands of the process. The article is in a horrid state, but I will take it to GA anyway for a public execution. Yours, &c. RGloucester — ☎ 22:26, 24 January 2026 (UTC) Inactive? For future reference, what does "If a review is answered and the nominator is inactive for more than one week." mean for the review's closure? If there are many points in a partially completed peer review and I'm going through them, do I need to post updates to the peer review page? Is it not enough to actively work on the article itself? Rjjiii (talk) 02:23, 5 February 2026 (UTC) I would assume that this refers to the nominator's overall activity, not just on the PR itself. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 01:31, 6 February 2026 (UTC) Closing a peer review Hey everyone, I've gotten great feedback for my peer review (Wikipedia:Peer_review/Perrine_Dugué/archive1), so I tried (and failed) to close it a week ago. I correctly added the "closed peer review" template to the review page, but then on the article's Talk page I didn't follow the directions fully Special:Diff/1360772571. I realized my mistake yesterday and tried to "close" the peer review on the Talk page again Special:Diff/1361303766. But it's been a day & I still see the article in the "current" peer review category: Category:History_peer_reviews Is there a way to fix this? I've read that the bot will close it after 2 weeks of inactivity — will that still work, in this case? Thank you — Chao Garden 🌱 ~ say hello 05:43, 28 June 2026 (UTC) Hey Chao Garden, there were some templates on the review page that needed removing in order to deactivate it — I've made the change. If you're at PR again in the future, this script might be helpful with automating the closing procedures. Let me know if you have any questions! —TechnoSquirrel69 (talk) 14:49, 28 June 2026 (UTC) Thank you so much! Next time I will definitely use that script instead. — Chao Garden 🌱 ~ say hello 15:06, 28 June 2026 (UTC)
