Original Reporting notes[edit]

  1. Attended Monday's press preview, took in 1.5hrs tour with deputy director of the gallery, followed by taking numerous photos around the gallery.
  2. Took handwritten notes during tour.
  3. Reviewed printed press-pack material issued to press for creation of article.

Electronic press pack emailed to scoop. --Brian McNeil / talk 17:18, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Two items[edit]

  • Since I don't see handwritten notes in evidence, does this mean there won't be any difficulty in review over their absence?
  • There will, one hopes, be some testimony here when the author considers it ready-but-for-confirmation-it-happened?

The notes are mainly for the anecdotal items in the tour; were I to scan them (which I lack time to do) you'd likely find them completely illegible. The remainder should be verifiable from the press pack emailed to scoop.
I'll move it out of prep with a remark in the {{develop}} template regarding timing and confirmation of Salmond pulling the string on the plaque. --Brian McNeil / talk 12:52, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Review of revision 1333403 [Passed][edit]

Revision 1333403 of this article has been reviewed by Pi zero (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 17:55, 1 December 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Comments by reviewer:

  • Please sent the notes to scoop, when this becomes possible (scanning them in does seem by far the easiest way). A permanent record of sourcing is needed. I appreciate that practicalities prevented this from being done earlier, but it should not ultimately be omitted.

The reviewed revision should automatically have been edited by removing {{Review}} and adding {{Publish}} at the bottom, and the edit sighted; if this did not happen, it may be done manually by a reviewer.
