[theme-reviewers] Need input from all ( if posssible )

[Qamar Ashraf]

Hi Jose,

My theme reviewing process is nearly similar to Emil, and the following *Theme
Review Points of Emphasis* by Chip Bennett are really helpful to me as well,

More, I usually study the tickets owned by *WPTRT Admins* to refresh and
increase my knowledge.

Thanks
