GOCE Backlog Elimination Drive invitation


There are currently
2,372 articles in the backlog.
You can help us! Join the
September 2010 drive today!

The Guild of Copy-Editors – September 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive


The Wikipedia Guild of Copy-Editors invite you to participate in the September 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive, a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles that require copy-editing. The drive will begin on 1 September at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on 30 September at 23:59 (UTC). The goals for this drive are to eliminate 2008 from the queue and to reduce the backlog to fewer than 5,000 articles.

Sign-up has already begun at the September drive page, and will be open throughout the drive. If you have any questions or concerns, please leave a message on the drive's talk page.

Before you begin copy-editing, please carefully read the instructions on the main drive page. Please make sure that you know how to copy-edit, and be familiar with the Wikipedia Manual of Style.

Awards and barnstars
A range of barnstars will be awarded to active participants. Some are exclusive to GoCE drives. More information on awards can be found on the main drive page.

Thank you; we look forward to meeting you on the drive!
ɳorɑfʈ Talk! and S Masters (talk).

See my talk In about 30 seconds... —Justin (koavf)TCM00:52, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for trying. I (for one) appreciate your attempt to find a compromise. But you are right - the main objectors are set in their ways and have adopted a "no compromise" stance. Thanks again for your valiant attempt, and sorry to see (yet another) voice of reason driven from the page. Smatprt (talk) 22:12, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

As I said, I don't really care either way. I think the SAQ is silly and it seems like you may be doing more harm than good by pushing to include it on the "Plays" page.. Scartol • Tok 15:26, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
You may be right, but this issue (ongoing deletion of SAQ material) has been going on for quite a while across several pages, so I think it's good that we are having this discussion - as it may impact other articles, as well. A mediation opened by one of the deleters has been accepted [[1]], and I have agreed to participate, so I am hoping it can be resolved one way or another. You and several others were left off of the list of participants so, on advice from the chair of the Mediation committee, I opened a thread about the missing editors here [[2]]. Anyhow, here's hoping for a good discussion and a resolution! Smatprt (talk) 20:17, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

You were mentioned

Hi. You were mentioned here [[3]]. I hope you can take part (even though you think its silly!). Best Regards, Smatprt (talk) 23:55, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
