warning and response==

Hi Ragityman. Thanks for your edits on Maya Angelou. Just to note that it has recently been awarded a GA status after long and careful editing and review by the admin. Maybe have a look at the talk archives. Christine has put a lot amount of work into getting the article to where it is over the years, so go gently. Just flaggin' it up. Best wishes.

Thanks for the heads-up. Now that you mention it, I do remember reading some of the "talk" a month or so ago. Also read her note to you, above.

In the spirit of WP, trying to be BOLD, but I will drop Christine a note to say that I won't take it personally if she re-corrects some of my edits. She did say in her note to you that she knew it is still in need of some copy-editing. I am aware that there are many editors on WP much more competent and experienced than myself. After the little work i've done so far (just over 100 edits),

Once again, thanks for the memo. Happy editing! ~~

draft to Christine

Hi, Christine! Ragityman, here.

I've been doing a little copy-editing on article:Maya Angelou. I won't take it personally if you re-correct some of my edits. She did say in her note to you that she knew it is still in need of some copy-editing. I am aware that there are many editors on WP much more competent and experienced than myself. After the little work i've done so far (just over 100 edits), I'm becoming very aware of the huge amount of labor some of you have contributed.

The Guild of Copy-Editors – September 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive


The Wikipedia Guild of Copy-Editors invite you to participate in the September 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive, a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles that require copy-editing. The drive will begin on 1 September at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on 30 September at 23:59 (UTC). The goals for this drive are to eliminate 2008 from the queue and to reduce the backlog to fewer than 5,000 articles.

Sign-up has already begun at the September drive page, and will be open throughout the drive. If you have any questions or concerns, please leave a message on the drive's talk page.

Before you begin copy-editing, please carefully read the instructions on the main drive page. Please make sure that you know how to copy-edit, and be familiar with the Wikipedia Manual of Style.

Awards and barnstars
A range of barnstars will be awarded to active participants. Some are exclusive to GoCE drives. More information on awards can be found on the main drive page.

Thank you; we look forward to meeting you on the drive!
