GOCE drive newsletter

The Guild of Copy Editors – May 2011 Backlog Elimination Drive


The Guild of Copy Editors invite you to participate in the May 2011 Backlog Elimination Drive, a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles that require copy-editing. The drive began on May 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on May 31 at 23:59 (UTC). The goals of this backlog elimination drive are to eliminate as many articles as possible from the 2009 backlog and to reduce the overall backlog by 15%. ! NEW ! In an effort to encourage the final elimination of all 2009 articles, we will be tracking them on the leaderboard for this drive.

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.

We look forward to meeting you on the drive! Your GOCE coordinators: SMasters, Diannaa, Tea with toast, Chaosdruid, and Torchiest

From an old friend

I really hope you have now learned that posting on someones discussion page asking them why they did something is not vandalism. Happy editing :) --An old friend —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.208.25.192 (talk) 05:44, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

I have learned not to misuse rollback, though. WayneSlam 20:12, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Huggle

Hello there. Just wondering, have you considered asking for your huggle access to be returned? It's been almost 2 months since it was revoked and your recent vandalism reverts appear to be problem free :P Think about it. -FASTILY (TALK) 23:49, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi, sorry for the late reply. No, I have not considered asking to get my Huggle access back but I will. WayneSlam 22:47, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

African American basketball players

Oh, boy. That is a whole can of worms. Technically, we're not supposed to use those categories unless there is a source that explicitly says so-and-so is African American. Those sources are harder to find than you'd expect. (Although I suspect you could at least find something like that for Rose.) Zagalejo^^^ 01:25, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

So you can't also say they are just by the picture, right? WayneSlam 10:56, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
Your interpretation of a picture is original research. Read WP:BLPCAT, which explains this in detail. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Namiba (talkcontribs) 00:29, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
Okay. WayneSlam 19:15, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

NASCAR newsletter

Would you care to deliver the newsletter every month on the 24th-25th. The bot that I used has been disabled. I would appreciate it. Thanks. --Nascar1996 (talkcontribs) 20:18, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

Allright. Do you think there could be a new bot? WayneSlam 20:20, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
Someone probably could create a new one similar to the old. I will be watching the bot to see if it ever becomes active again. --Nascar1996 (talkcontribs) 20:22, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
Okay. WayneSlam 20:25, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
