Hello and welcome to the September [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Newsletters|GOCE newsletter]], a brief update of Guild activities since [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Newsletters/June 2021|June 2021]]. |
|||
{{Center|{{spaces|17|em}}'''Current and upcoming events'''}} |
|||

Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/June 2021/Barnstars|here]]. |

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Coordinators/2021/2|June election]]:''' Jonesey95 was chosen to continue as lead coordinator, assisted by Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis. |
|||
'''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. This change added 198 articles, spread over 97 months of backlog, to our queue. 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]]). |
|||
'''Progress report:''' As of 18:26, 24 September 2021 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors have processed 468 <!--221+179+66+2--> requests since 1 January and there were 60 requests awaiting completion on the [[WP:GOCE/R|Requests page]]. The backlog of articles tagged for copy-editing stood at 433 (see monthly 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}}. |

Hello and welcome to the December [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Newsletters|GOCE newsletter]], a brief update of Guild activities since [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Newsletters/September 2021|September 2021]]. |
|||
{{Center|{{spaces|17|em}}'''Current and upcoming events'''}} |
|||
'''Election time''': Our end-of-year [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Coordinators/2022/1|'''election of coordinators''']] opened for nominations on 1 December and will close on 15 December at 23:59 (UTC). Voting opens at 00:01 the following day and will continue until 31 December at 23:59, just before "[[Auld Lang Syne]]". Coordinators normally serve a six-month term and are elected on an approval basis. Self-nominations are welcome. If you've thought of helping out at the Guild, or know of another editor who would make a good coordinator, please consider standing for election or nominating them [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Coordinators/2021/1#Nominations|'''here''']]. |
|||
[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/December 2021|'''December Blitz''']]: We have scheduled a week-long copy-editing blitz for 12 to 18 December. [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/December 2021#Signing up|Sign up]] now! |
|||

It is with great sadness that we report the death on 19 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}}. |

Hi Cleveland Todd, are you still working on this copy-edit request?

::No problem; thanks for your understanding, we like to keep the Requests page updated. Sometimes editors forget to mark requests done, and others have abandoned Wikipedia without starting the c/e.

{{unblock reviewed |1=I have no reason to request an "unblock" because I have no idea why I have been blocked.

{{unblock reviewed |1=I requested that my block be removed one week ago. I do understand that you are probably busy with other matters, and that the block is probably more important to me than it is to you. I would like to comprehend what I have done to incur this block. I was blocked last summer for a variety of reasons, mostly minor and circumstantial (the block was dropped at the request of another editor) and am wondering what caused this recent block. As I mentioned earlier, I have one and only one account; I do not edit on some secret accounts. (I think that’s what “…used abusively” means.) I just cannot – for the life of me – figure out what I have done wrong. Please help me here. Editing Wikipedia is not my sole focus in life, but I do enjoy it.

Just a quick correction to the prior message about the 2022 MILHIST coordinator election! I ({{noping|Hog Farm}}) didn't proofread the message well enough and left out a link to the election page itself in this message. The voting will occur '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators/September 2022|here]]'''; sorry about the need for a second message and the inadvertent omission from the prior one.

Your GA nomination of Star Watch Case Company
[edit]The article Star Watch Case Company you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Star Watch Case Company for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of MatthewMcFly -- MatthewMcFly (talk) 00:22, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, I had noticed that from MatthewMcFly. I would say to wait until Monday and see what happens. Then it will be your call.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 20:43, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
- If you want to renominate this as a GAN, I would say it is alright as MatthewFly is not responding.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 21:31, 11 November 2021 (UTC)

- If the reviewer doesn't respond to your query (which is what I suspect will happen) I would say you can renominate at your leisure. I'll be glad to handle most of the issues when the review happens. We will both get a green icon for our User Page when it gets promoted.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 14:51, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- Since the reviewer didn't respond to your query I would say you can renominate GAN anytime. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 12:44, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Doug, he did respond on 9/23/21 and said he was wrong (and inexperienced) in his initial rejection. He said he would re-review and get back to me. Haven't heard since then. Cleveland Todd (talk) 14:42, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- O.K. We will wait and see what happens.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 15:13, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
September 2021 Guild of Copy Editors newsletter
[edit]Guild of Copy Editors September 2021 Newsletter
Hello and welcome to the September GOCE newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since June 2021. Current and upcoming events
September Drive: Our current backlog-elimination drive is open until 23:59 on 30 September (UTC) and is open to all copy editors. Sign up today! Drive and Blitz reports
June Blitz: From 20 to 26 June, 6 participating editors claimed 16 copy edits, focusing on requests and articles tagged in March and April. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. July Drive: Almost 575,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 24 people who signed up, 18 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here. August Blitz: From 15 to 21 August, we copy edited articles tagged in April and May 2021 and requests. 9 participating editors completed 17 copy edits on the blitz. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. Other news
June election: Jonesey95 was chosen to continue as lead coordinator, assisted by Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis. New maintenance template added to our project scope: After a short discussion in June, we added {{cleanup tense}} to the list of maintenance templates that adds articles to the Guild's copy editing backlog categories. This change added 198 articles, spread over 97 months of backlog, to our queue. 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 link to a "tense" discussion during the drive). Progress report: As of 18:26, 24 September 2021 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors have processed 468 requests since 1 January and there were 60 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog of articles tagged for copy-editing stood at 433 (see monthly 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 Jonesey95, Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

There will be a review coming soon. I will be glad to attempt to answer the issues that the reviewer poses. Just put the review on your 'Watch' list to see how it is going. You can interrupt if you want.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 13:03, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information. For more information about the columns and categories, please consult the documentation and please get in touch on SuggestBot's talk page with any questions you might have.
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 18:49, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
FYI
[edit]I think you made a typo when creating your talk archive, so I have moved it to the correct namespace. It is now at User talk:Cleveland Todd/Archive 2. DanCherek (talk) 19:39, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
Hello, Cleveland Todd,
What is this page supposed to be? Right now it's tagged for deletion but I wanted to check with you first so you know not to put content like this in the main space of the project. If for some reason you want this in your own User space, move it now before it gets deleted. Liz Read! Talk! 03:28, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
@Liz: Page created in error; sorry. Working with another editor to clear this up. Please just delete.Cleveland Todd (talk) 16:24, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

[edit]December 2021 GOCE Newsletter
[edit]Guild of Copy Editors December 2021 Newsletter
Hello and welcome to the December GOCE newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since September 2021. Current and upcoming events
Election time: Our end-of-year election of coordinators opened for nominations on 1 December and will close on 15 December at 23:59 (UTC). Voting opens at 00:01 the following day and will continue until 31 December at 23:59, just before "Auld Lang Syne". Coordinators normally serve a six-month term and are elected on an approval basis. Self-nominations are welcome. If you've thought of helping out at the Guild, or know of another editor who would make a good coordinator, please consider standing for election or nominating them here. December Blitz: We have scheduled a week-long copy-editing blitz for 12 to 18 December. Sign up now! Drive and Blitz reports
September Drive: Almost 400,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 27 people who signed up, 21 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here. October Blitz: From 17 to 23 October, we copy edited articles tagged in May and June 2021 and requests. 8 participating editors completed 26 copy edits on the blitz. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. November Drive: Over 350,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 21 people who signed up, 14 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here. Other news
It is with great sadness that we report the death on 19 November of 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 sorely missed by the Wikipedia community. Progress report: As of 30 November, GOCE copyeditors have completed 619 requests in 2021 and there were 51 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog stood at 946 articles tagged for copy-editing (see monthly 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 Jonesey95, Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

Survey about History on Wikipedia
[edit]I am Petros Apostolopoulos, a Ph.D. candidate in Public History at North Carolina State University. My Ph.D. project examines how historical knowledge is produced on Wikipedia. If you are interested in participating in my research study by offering your own experience of writing about history on Wikipedia, you can click on this link https://ncsu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9z4wmR1cIp0qBH8. There are minimal risks involved in this research.
If you have any questions, please let me know. Petros Apostolopoulos, paposto@ncsu.edu Apolo1991 (talk) 14:59, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
Crazy (Willie Nelson song) c/e request
[edit]Hi Cleveland Todd, are you still working on this copy-edit request? Please let us know at the GOCE Requests page so we can either archive the request or release it for other editors to work on. Thanks for your copy-edits. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 01:39, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Baffle gab1978: - I had a question for the editor who requested the edit, which he answered yesterday. I'll mark the request finished this morning. Cleveland Todd (talk) 13:24, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- No problem; thanks for your understanding, we like to keep the Requests page updated. Sometimes editors forget to mark requests done, and others have abandoned Wikipedia without starting the c/e. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 19:08, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

July 2022
[edit]Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice:
{{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}
. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.
Cleveland Todd (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I have no reason to request an "unblock" because I have no idea why I have been blocked. I have no other accounts or user names; I edit as much as I can on many different topics; I am active in the GOCE: and would really like to know why I have been blocked. Then I can object or provide reasons why I should not be blocked. Cleveland Todd (talk) 2:17 pm, 26 July 2022, last Tuesday (7 days ago) (UTC−4)
Decline reason:
Duplicate -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 04:13, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Cleveland Todd (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I requested that my block be removed one week ago. I do understand that you are probably busy with other matters, and that the block is probably more important to me than it is to you. I would like to comprehend what I have done to incur this block. I was blocked last summer for a variety of reasons, mostly minor and circumstantial (the block was dropped at the request of another editor) and am wondering what caused this recent block. As I mentioned earlier, I have one and only one account; I do not edit on some secret accounts. (I think that’s what “…used abusively” means.) I just cannot – for the life of me – figure out what I have done wrong. Please help me here. Editing Wikipedia is not my sole focus in life, but I do enjoy it. Cleveland Todd (talk) 10:12 am, Yesterday (UTC−4)
Decline reason:
I'm sorry, but I cannot unblock you. This is a checkuser block. CheckUsers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. Your best option is to email the Arbitration Committee at arbcom-enwikimedia.org with your username and appeal.-- Deepfriedokra (talk) 04:18, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
