Congratulations on becoming a hall-of-famer!

[edit]

I assume that the GOCE Hall of Fame is an actual physical building, so as a new coordinator I will be helping to typeset your bronze plaque. Is there anything you would like us to be sure to include on it? Tdslk (talk) 01:04, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

LOL. Congratulations on becoming a coordinator, and I'll be around to help and answer questions (not much this weekend, though, since our daughter and her family will be visiting). Have fun and all the best, Miniapolis 02:31, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Enjoy your family time! Tdslk (talk) 02:53, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Guild of Copy Editors July 2016 News

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.

The Creation of the Violin

[edit]

Thank you very much for copy-editing The Creation of the Violin. NearEMPTiness (talk) 04:24, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not done yet (been AFK). I'll finish ASAP, ping you and tag the talk page; I know that Blue Moonset is waiting for the copyedit at DYK (which is why it should be done before nomination, but ... ). All the best, Miniapolis 20:18, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Miniapolis: Thank you once again for your efforts. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 07:15, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

LOL, and glad to help. Good luck and all the best, Miniapolis 15:27, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

For you

[edit]

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

For not speedy deleting 2017 Formula One Season with the edit summary of 'Declined speedy; non-vandalism was just created' It was nominated for speedy under A10 not as vandalism. That it duplicates another existing article, 2017 Formula One season. It is the same topic....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:26, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Trout accepted, duplicate article deleted. All the best, Miniapolis 13:33, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
He recreated it again[1]. May I suggest deletion and SALTING....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:34, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nthep redirected it to 2017 Formula One season. I have to go out now, but will leave a note on User talk:AC9900 later (which, apparently, they won't read). Hope a block won't be needed. All the best, Miniapolis 13:50, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
