If you are going to post on my talk page, please remember to be respectful to others, and try to offer something new to the discussion you are posting to. It makes conversation much more enjoyable by all members of a conversation to have something fresh to look at rather than to go back and forth about the same thing that has already been resolved. Here are some rules I would like you to adhere to, along with the talk page guidelines:
1. No profanity, please. It just mucks up the place. It also lowers the amount of respect I have for you if you do so in anger.
2. If you are trying to get a point across, do it in a civil manner. I will regularly cull my talk page and remove posts that are offensive and/or inflammatory.
3. Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask it.
I'll probably add more rules later on.

Ah, I see now that the reference referred to all the sentences there. I am sorry for missing that, and thank you for correcting my mistake. Just making sure that all BLP statements are referenced. Keep up the good work. かんぱい! Scapler (talk) 19:43, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Will do. It's ok that you missed it. After looking it over, I did see how it could be missed. I have since tried to make it a bit clearer in the sentence structure that they are all from the same references. Keep up your good work.

GOCE September 2012 drive wrap-up

Guild of Copy Editors September 2012 backlog elimination drive wrap-up

Participation: Out of 41 people who signed up this drive, 28 copy-edited at least one article. Thanks to all who participated! Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here.

Progress report: We achieved our primary goal of clearing July, August, September and October 2011 from the backlog. This means that, for the first time since the drives began, the backlog is less than a year. At least 677 tagged articles were copy edited, although 365 new ones were added during the month. The total backlog at the end of the month was 2341 articles, down from 8323 when we started out over two years ago. We completed all 54 requests outstanding before September 2012 as well as eight of those made in September.

Copy Edit of the Month: Voting is now over for the August 2012 competition, and prizes will be issued soon. The September 2012 contest is closed for submissions and open for voting. The October 2012 contest is now open for submissions. Everyone is welcome to submit entries and to vote.

– Your drive coordinators: Stfg, Allens, and Torchiest.

Fall Events from the Guild of Copy Editors

The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in its events:

  • The October 2012 Copy Edit of the Month Contest is currently in the submissions stage. Submit your best October copy edit there before the end of the month. Submissions end, and discussion and voting begin, on November 1 at 00:00 (UTC).
  • Voting is in progress for the September 2012 Copy Edit of the Month Contest. Everyone is welcome to vote, whether they have entered the contest or not.
  • NEW!! In the week from Sunday 21 October to Saturday 27 October, we are holding a Project Blitz, in which we will copy edit articles tagged with {{copyedit}} belonging to selected project(s). For the first blitz, we'll start with WikiProject Olympics and WikiProject Albums and add more Projects to the blitz as we clear them. The blitz works much like our bimonthly drives, but a bit simpler. Everyone is welcome to take part, and barnstars will be awarded.
  • November 2012 Backlog elimination drive is a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on November 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on November 30 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to copy edit all articles tagged in 2011 and to complete all requests placed before the end of October. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits at least one article, and special awards will be given to the top five in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in 2011", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Stfg, Allens, and Torchiest.
