Siddhachakra copy edit

Hi Aeris Tiberius. You took on this GOCE request but appear to have done nothing on it for two weeks now. Do you intend to complete it, or shall I release the request so that another editor can take it on? --Stfg (talk) 11:53, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I got your message. I'll relieve you of the GOCE request so that someone with the time can tackle it. Please could I ask you to try only to take on requests that you're going to be able to complete, or at least to release them as soon as it becomes clear to you that you won't be in a position to complete. Otherwise, the request gets held up, and the requester's project may be delayed. Thanks. --Stfg (talk) 19:06, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

GOCE July 2013 news report

Guild of Copy Editors July 2013 backlog elimination drive mid-drive newsletter Participation: Out of 30 people who have signed up for this drive so far, 18 have participated. If you have signed up for the drive but have not yet participated, it isn't too late. If you haven't signed up for the drive, sign up now! Progress report: Thus far we have reduced the number of May/June 2012 articles to just 124 articles, so we're on the right track. Unfortunately, for the first time in GOCE history, the number of articles in the backlog has actually gone up during this drive. While all participants are currently doing a fine job, we just don't have as many of them as we have had in the past. We have over 500 editors on our mailing list, but only 18 editors who have done a copy edit for the drive. If you're receiving this newsletter, it's because you have an interest in copy editing. Join the drive! Even if you only copy edit one article, it helps. Imagine how much progress we could make if everyone chipped in just one article. – Your drive coordinators: Torchiest, Baffle gab1978, Jonesey95, and The Utahraptor. >>> Sign up now <<< To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.
