User talk:Stfg

I've signed up for a multi-year distance learning course and will be giving it first priority from now on. I'm not retiring from Wikipedia, which I care too much about, but my future contribution here will mostly be small-scale gnoming. In particular, I plan to steer clear of places and activities where drama tends to break out. I'll check my (very small) watchlist most days, but please understand if I'm slow to reply from now on. Thanks. --Stfg (talk) 14:16, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Guild of Copy Editors July 2016 News

Hello everyone, and welcome to the July 2016 GOCE newsletter.

June Blitz: this one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 12 through 18 June; the themes were video games and Asian geography. Of the 18 editors who signed up, 11 removed 47 articles from the backlog. Barnstars and rollover totals are located here. Thanks to all editors who took part.

Coordinator elections: The second tranche of Guild coordinators for 2016, who will serve a six-month term until 23:59 UTC on 31 December, have been elected. Jonesey95 remains as your drama-free Lead Coordinator, and Corinne and Tdslk are your new assistant coordinators. For her long service to the Guild, Miniapolis has been enrolled in the GOCE Hall of Fame. Thanks to everyone who voted in the election; our next scheduled one occurs in December 2016. All Wikipedia editors in good standing are eligible; self-nominations are welcome and encouraged.

July Drive: Our month-long July Copy Editing Backlog Elimination Drive is now underway. Our aim is to remove articles tagged for copy-edit in April, May and June 2015, and to complete all requests on the GOCE Requests page from June 2016. The drive ends at 23:59 on 31 July 2016 (UTC).

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, Corinne and Tdlsk.

16 July 2016 thank you

Thank you for GOCE copyediting! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:33, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, Gerda. --Stfg (talk) 17:33, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

28 August 2016 Thank you

Thank you for correcting and amending the Article Donald W. Loveland. You or the unknown editor came up with verifying sources that I would never have found; sources within Duke University. I am impressed. (I would have provided pointers to the sources I suggested in my talk note.) I appreciate the trouble taken to improve the article. WmLovel (talk) 00:27, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You're most welcome, WmLovel, and thanks for dropping by. It was user NQ who found and added those extra sources. All I did was correct the bibliography as you requested, ant a little bit of reformatting. Kind regards, --Stfg (talk) 09:04, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
