[[User:Jpgordon]]: I understand and appreciate your concerns, so I shall explain myself now: I edit in my school, Switch flare being a classmate of mine (we are not friends however and I did not tell them to create the account), hence the shared IP address. I had noticed what they were doing and I attempted to rectify it, which is why I and them were editing the same article because I wanted to prevent their further interference. Furthermore, I am using my own personal device, so they aren’t able to circumvent the block through me or my account. If you need any more information or would like me to answer any more questions, please let me know. Thanks for hearing me out.

'''New maintenance template''' added to our project scope: After a short [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Archives/2021#Minor_backlogs|discussion in June]], we added {{tl|cleanup tense}} to the list of maintenance templates that adds articles to the Guild's copy editing backlog categories.

We processed all of those articles except for those from the three or four most recent months during the July backlog elimination drive (Here's a [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Backlog_elimination_drives/July_2021|link to a "tense" discussion during the drive]]).

It is with great sadness that we report the death on 19&nbsp;November of [[User:Twofingered Typist|Twofingered Typist]], who was active with the Guild almost daily for the past several years. His contributions long exceeded the thresholds for the Guild's highest awards, and he had a hand in innumerable good and featured article promotions as a willing collaborator. Twofingered Typist also served as a Guild coordinator from July 2019 to June 2021. He is [[Wikipedia:Deceased_Wikipedians/2021#Christopher_Kent_Keen_(Twofingered_Typist)|sorely missed by the Wikipedia community]].

'''Progress report:''' As of 30 November, GOCE copyeditors have completed {{#expr:47-1<!--last from 2020 archive page, less one declined-->+610-24-13<!--2021 requests to 30 November less declined and withdrawn-->}} requests in 2021 and there were 51 requests awaiting completion on the [[WP:GOCE/R|Requests page]].  The backlog stood at 946 articles tagged for copy-editing (see monthly [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Progress|progress]] graph above).

Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators {{noping|Jonesey95}}, {{noping|Dhtwiki}}, {{noping|Tenryuu}}, and {{noping|Miniapolis}}.
