Review
Hi. I saw your question on IRC as I was doing something else off-line, and by the time I got back, you were gone. Sorry I missed you there.

Review is used in en.wb mainspace mainly to keep track of which version of a page has been checked by a (reasonably experienced) Wikibookian to make sure it doesn't contain vandalism. It's really not necessary to have all your pages reviewed in order to contribute. After you've been on the project for a while, so that you satisfy the criteria described at WB:Reviewers, the software automatically gives you the review bit; the idea is that if you satisfy those criteria, you have some experience on the project. --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 19:51, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

great, would the irc also be the place to notify wikibookians of possible vandalism? another thing we need to solve urgently is how to adjust the print output to a smaller scale. At the moment the limit is 6 table columns per page. How do we fit more columns in so the document remains printable? --MNeuschaefer (discuss • contribs) 19:58, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
