GOCE March drive newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 backlog elimination drive update Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 Backlog elimination drive! Here's the mid-drive newsletter. Participation: We have had 58 people sign up for this drive so far, which compares favorably with our last drive, and 27 have copy-edited at least one article. If you have signed up but have not yet copy-edited any articles, please consider doing so. Every bit helps! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. Join us! Progress report: Our target of completing the 2010 articles has almost been reached, with only 56 remaining of the 194 we had at the start of the drive. The last ones are always the most difficult, so thank you if you are able to help copy-edit any of the remaining articles. We have reduced the total backlog by 163 articles so far. Special thanks: Special thanks to Stfg, who has been going through the backlog and doing some preliminary vetting of the articles—removing copyright violations, doing initial clean-up, and nominating some for deletion. This work has helped make the drive a more pleasant experience for all our volunteers. Your drive coordinators – Dianna (talk), Stfg (talk), and Dank (talk) To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

re: ... you're wasting your time there. Arbcom is a freaking joke. Total waste of time to even try to talk to them; they are are a laughingstock of the Internet. Some good individuals, but a neutered group of fools. Just go write the articles and ignore them. You do good work - don't concern yourself with the arse that is Arbcom. Last Lone Wolf (talk) 01:57, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

I guess my position is to use the processes Misplaced Pages lays out. Whatever the outcome, I can then say I did my best to deal with what is, in this case, a wrongful sanction. Thanks for your concern Lone Wolf.(olive (talk) 21:47, 21 October 2013 (UTC))

"Court of Last Resort" is officially Jimbo still. He does not appear to be rapid, but at least you will not have arbs simply digging their heels in <g> defending their decisions. Collect (talk) 14:34, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Collect.(olive (talk) 20:57, 25 October 2013 (UTC))

A barnstar for you!

	The Resilient Barnstar
	I admire your perseverance and resiliency. WP is often not a very gentle place and can seem un-supportive at times. However, you are a valued Wikipedian and I hope you will continue to contribute to WP in your own unique way. Best, — Keithbob • Talk • 20:43, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Kbob for the thought. It means a lot to me. I think active editors can be concerned about involving themselves in this kind of arbitration clarification which I can understand completely. (olive (talk) 00:49, 28 October 2013 (UTC))

Thank you. There was agreement for content to be moved to its own article after discussion.This was the final discussion . You may want to check the archives to notify involved in those past discussions assuming they are still editing. (olive (talk) 15:48, 27 October 2013 (UTC))
