[edit]Your recent editing history at J. K. Rowling's Wizarding World shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. - Brojam (talk) 15:57, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Sin City (film). Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 18:51, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:HarrisonSteam, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 17:12, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
X-Men
[edit]Hi there, just wanted to give you a heads-up that your recent edit at X-Men (film series) broke a table. I took a look and can see an unclosed reference tag at Josh Brolin, but fixing that didn't solve the problem. I'd be glad to dig deeper and see if I can fix it, but figured you'd probably do a better job, since you knew what you were aiming for. Thanks! Jessicapierce (talk) 21:12, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Thor Jane Foster.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Thor Jane Foster.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 04:00, 16 November 2017 (UTC)

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Favre1fan93 (talk) 19:10, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
- Not intended to be disruptive. Haven't interfered with anything major. HarrisonSteam (talk) 19
- 30, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Star vs. the Forces of Evil. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. You are adding way too much trivia and plot for the character descriptions there. See WP:TVCAST AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:29, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Justin Briner.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not create the article for Justin or add unsourced birthday information. His article is in draft right now and has to be approved by the Articles For Creation process first, and the birthday needs to be sourced. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:54, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
- Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Justin Briner. Do not add Justin Briner's birthday and place without providing a source. Do not add spouse / family information without a source either. Do not add deuteragonist per WP:PROTAGONIST.

License tagging for File:Justin Briner.jpeg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Justin Briner.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 00:30, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
Nomination of Justin Briner for deletion
[edit]A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Justin Briner is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Justin Briner (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Primefac (talk) 17:08, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Justin Briner.jpeg
[edit]A tag has been placed on File:Justin Briner.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. – Train2104 (t • c) 02:24, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
Page blank moving at Spider-Man and Spider-Man (Peter Parker)
[edit]Please do not Blank pages and do copy paste moves. If you cannot move a page, please request a move at Requested Moves. Cheers. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 23:23, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, I believe I was too hasty in making this move and have reverted it. Other examples such as Iron Man are contrary to your move rationale. I have restored the page to what it was before you copy-paste moved the pages. I recommend following the process at Requested Moves for setting up a discussion if you feel strongly about this, and consider this as potentially controversial. Sorry for the confusion. Please ping me if you decide to open such a discussion. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 00:39, 24 November 2017 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Radiphus. Your recent edit to the page List of Rick and Morty episodes appears to have added incorrect information, so it has been removed for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -- (Radiphus) 06:16, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Rick and Morty (season 3). Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. -- (Radiphus) 06:25, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Rick and Morty (season 3), you may be blocked from editing. -- (Radiphus) 18:16, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
- Please discuss your changes at Talk:Rick and Morty (season 3)#11 "The Poop In My Pants" is not an episode. Stop edit-warring, stop introducing deliberate factual errors and stop vandalizing the articles immediately or your may be blocked from editing! -- (Radiphus) 18:21, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
December 2017
[edit] You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Arrowverse. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. -- AlexTW 22:42, 1 December 2017 (UTC)

Edit warring... and your user page
[edit]You've already violated the three revert rule at Get Out (film). Please stop edit warring. If you continue, I'll have to block you. Also, I have a question about your user page. Why do you say that you have advanced permissions on it? I just checked, and you don't have any of the user rights you claim to have (rollback, pending changes reviewer, etc). NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:39, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
- @NinjaRobotPirate: The editor also recently had a major case of edit-warring at Arrowverse; perhaps it is best if someone looks into this editor's contributions and takes a closer look. -- AlexTW 03:00, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
- @NinjaRobotPirate: - <;-) Sorry, didn't know about the three revert rule. I'll take my discussion to the talk page. And I just copied that User page from a user called TriiipleThreat as a template & changed to be my information. Will remove that part. Thanks for noticing. HarrisonSteam (talk) 16:56, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
@AlexTheWhovian: - I'm not planning on editing Arrowverse at any point in the immediate future now, the issue for me was that there was a Main Series section containing Web Series and a separate Web series section, it's sorted now; separate note, how do I look at my contributions, and is there an advanced Wikipedia instruction book anywhere online? HarrisonSteam (talk) 16:56, 5 December 2017 (UTC)- Going to Talk:Get Out (film) to discuss your changes will help defuse this situation; thank you for doing that. If you're having trouble getting your edits to stick, there are a few things you can do. Discussing issues on the talk page is probably the best solution. If that fails, there's dispute resolution. If that doesn't work, you can try setting up a request for comments, which will draw in uninvolved, neutral editors to give their opinions. RFCs typically run for a month. I know that all this may seem a bit bureaucratic, but it helps prevent endless reverting back-and-forth. I can help you with this stuff if you get stuck. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:30, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you. Yours Sincerely, HarrisonSteam (talk) 18:35, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
- Oh, by the way, there should be a "contributions" link at the top-right of your screen. If you click that, it will display your contributions. If you can't find it, you can click on Special:Contributions/HarrisonSteam – this link will show them, too. Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia, Wikipedia:Core content policies, Wikipedia:Plain and simple, and Wikipedia:Tips are the most helpful pages I know of. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the Teahouse, the help desk, or on my talk page. The Teahouse is more oriented toward new users, and the answers tend to be a little less complex. If you want detailed answers to complex questions, the help desk is better. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:46, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

My draft
[edit]Thank you @HarrisonSteam: helping fixing the “Mako Mori Test” section. I hope the same can go for the rest of the draft since it really needs a lot of work, especially the “Pacific Rim” section under “Appearance”.

[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Jurassic Park, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Heather Hudson and James Horan (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Non-free image use
[edit]Hi HarrisonSteam. The licensing of each media file you see used on Wikipedia is determined by it copyright status and not every file you see on Wikipedia is licensed the same. Some files are licensed as public domain or licensed under a free licensed suitable for Wikipedia and these are often collectively referred to as "free images". Other files are licensed as non-free content because of their copyright status and these files are commonly referred to as "non-free". Non-free content use on Wikipedia is highly restricted and each use of such files must satisfy Wikipedia's non-free image use policy. One of these restrictions is WP:NFCC#9, which says that non-free content can only be used in the article namespace. For this reason and as explained in WP:DRAFTS#Preparing drafts, non-free content such as File:Erma.png and File:Erma Williams.png, etc. cannot be used Draft:Erma (webcomic). perhaps you didn't see the edit sum I left when I removed the file the first time; therefore, I'm posting this here to provide more explanation. If you have any questions about this feel free to ask them here, at WP:MCQ or at WT:NFC, but please don't re-add the file again, until after the draft has been approved and moved to the article namespace. If by chance, the file is deleted in the time being, do not panic and reupload it. Deleted files are not gone for ever, but only hidden from public view and can be "undeleted" at a later date once any problems have been addressed. Finally, just a general comment about these files. Only one non-free image of the "Erma" is needed per WP:NFCC#3a; either file can be used in the main infobox after the draft is approved, but both are not needed. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:02, 10 December 2017 (UTC)

Guild of Copy Editors December 2017 News
[edit]Guild of Copy Editors December 2017 News
Hello copy editors! Welcome to the December 2017 GOCE newsletter, which contains nine months(!) of updates. The Guild has been busy and successful; your diligent efforts in 2017 has brought the backlog of articles requiring copy edit to below 1,000 articles for the first time. Thanks to all editors who have contributed their time and energy to help make this happen. Our copy-editing drives (month-long backlog-reduction drives held in odd-numbered months) and blitzes (week-long themed editing in even-numbered months) have been very successful this year. March drive: We set out to remove April, May, and June 2016 from our backlog and all February 2017 Requests (a total of 304 articles). By the end of the month, all but 22 of these articles were cleared. Officially, of the 28 who signed up, 22 editors recorded 257 copy edits (439,952 words). (These numbers do not always make sense when you compare them to the overall reduction in the backlog, because not all editors record every copy edit on the drive page.) April blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 16 through 22 April; the theme was Requests. Of the 15 who signed up, 9 editors completed 43 articles (81,822 words). May drive: The goals were to remove July, August, and September 2016 from the backlog and to complete all March 2017 Requests (a total of 300 articles). By the end of the month, we had reduced our overall backlog to an all-time low of 1,388 articles. Of the 28 who signed up, 17 editors completed 187 articles (321,810 words). June blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 18 through 24 June; the theme was Requests. Of the 16 who signed up, 9 editors completed 28 copy edits (117,089 words). 2017 Coordinator elections: In June, coordinators for the second half of 2017 were elected. Jonesey95 moved back into the lead coordinator position, with Miniapolis stepping down to remain as coordinator; Tdslk and Corinne returned as coordinators, and Keira1996 rejoined after an extended absence. Thanks to all who participated! July drive: We set out to remove August, September, October, and November 2016 from the backlog and to complete all May and June 2017 Requests (a total of 242 articles). The drive was an enormous success, and the target was nearly achieved within three weeks, so that December 2016 was added to the "old articles" list used as a goal for the drive. By the end of the month, only three articles from 2016 remained, and for the second drive in a row, the backlog was reduced to a new all-time low, this time to 1,363 articles. Of the 33 who signed up, 21 editors completed 337 articles (556,482 words). August blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 20 through 26 August; the theme was biographical articles tagged for copy editing for more than six months (47 articles). Of the 13 who signed up, 11 editors completed 38 copy edits (42,589 words). September drive: The goals were to remove January, February, and March 2017 from the backlog and to complete all August 2017 Requests (a total of 338 articles). Of the 19 who signed up, 14 editors completed 121 copy edits (267,227 words). October blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 22 through 28 October; the theme was Requests. Of the 14 who signed up, 8 editors completed 20 articles (55,642 words). November drive: We set out again to remove January, February, and March 2017 from the backlog and to complete all October 2017 Requests (a total of 207 articles). By the end of the month, these goals were reached and the backlog shrank to its lowest total ever, 997 articles, the first time it had fallen under one thousand (click on the graph above to see this amazing feat in graphical form). It was also the first time that the oldest copy-edit tag was less than eight months old. Of the 25 who signed up, 16 editors completed 159 articles (285,929 words). 2018 Coordinator elections: Voting is open for the election of coordinators for the first half of 2018. Please visit the election page to vote between now and December 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Thanks for participating! Housekeeping note: We do not send a newsletter before (or after) every drive or blitz. To have a better chance of knowing when the next event will start, add the GOCE's message box to your watchlist. 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, Miniapolis, Corinne, Tdslk, and Keira1996. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

List of Spider-Man films cast members
[edit]Yes, none of those live-action non-Spider-Man films should be included either. I would gladly rmeove them all but I'm not sure I could do this without breaking the table. I will try none the less.★Trekker (talk) 01:00, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- I tried, it didn't look good. Will probably get someone else from the film project to help me with it.★Trekker (talk) 01:03, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Actually I think those films should be included, these tables are for films featuring the character, rather than starring the character. Yours Sincerely, HarrisonSteam (talk) 01:23, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- That's not at all what the title says. It says "Spider-Man films", including a bunch of other characters who happen to be in the same film is nonsense. You also added these films to the characters navbox, don't do that again, and if you do add something to a navbox you should always add said navbox to the linked article, that's the point of navboxes.★Trekker (talk) 01:28, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- If you want to make a case of the inclusion of movies you can do that at the film project where I opened up a thread on it.★Trekker (talk) 01:29, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- @*Treker: Can I have a link to this for discussion? Yours Sincerely, HarrisonSteam (talk) 01:31, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- It's not a discussion, just a request for help since I'm not good at tables. But it's here. Feel free to argue why you think the stuff should be kept.★Trekker (talk) 01:34, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- @*Treker: Can I have a link to this for discussion? Yours Sincerely, HarrisonSteam (talk) 01:31, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Actually I think those films should be included, these tables are for films featuring the character, rather than starring the character. Yours Sincerely, HarrisonSteam (talk) 01:23, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

GOCE February 2018 news
[edit]Guild of Copy Editors February 2018 News
Welcome to the February 2018 GOCE newsletter in which you will find Guild updates since the December edition. We got to a great start for the year, holding the backlog at nine months. 100 requests were submitted in the first 6 weeks of the year and were swiftly handled with an average completion time of 9 days. Coordinator elections: In December, coordinators for the first half of 2018 were elected. Jonesey95 remained as lead coordinator and Corrine, Miniapolis and Tdslk as assistant coordinators. Keira1996 stepped down as assistant coordinator and was replaced by Reidgreg. Thanks to all who participated! End of year reports were prepared for 2016 and 2017, providing a detailed look at the Guild's long-term progress. January drive: We set out to remove April, May, and June 2017 from our backlog and all December 2017 Requests (a total of 275 articles). As with previous years, the January drive was an outstanding success and by the end of the month all but 57 of these articles were cleared. Officially, of the 38 who signed up, 21 editors recorded 259 copy edits (490,256 words). February blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 11 through 17 February, focusing on Requests and the last articles tagged in May 2017. At the end of the week there were only 14 pending requests, with none older than 20 days. Of the 11 who signed up, 10 editors completed 35 copy edits (98,538 words). 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, Miniapolis, Corinne, Tdslk, and Reidgreg.

June 2018 GOCE newsletter
[edit]Guild of Copy Editors June 2018 News
Welcome to the June 2018 GOCE newsletter, in which you will find Guild updates since the February edition. Progress continues to be made on the copyediting backlog, which has been reduced to 7 months and reached a new all-time low. Requests continue to be handled efficiently this year, with 272 completed by the end of May (an average completion time of 10.5 days). Fewer than 10% of these waited longer than 20 days, and the longest wait time was 29 days. Wikipedia in general, and the Guild in particular, experienced a deep loss with the death on 20 March of Corinne. Corinne (a GOCE coordinator since 1 July 2016) was a tireless aide on the requests page, and her peerless copyediting is a part of innumerable GAs and FAs. Her good cheer, courtesy and tact are very much missed. March drive: The goal was to remove June, July and August 2017 from our backlog and all February 2018 Requests (a total of 219 articles). This drive was an outstanding success, and by the end of the month all but eight of these articles were cleared. Of the 33 editors who signed up, 19 recorded 277 copy edits (425,758 words). April blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 15 through 21 April, focusing on Requests and the last eight articles tagged in August 2017. At the end of the week there were only 17 pending requests, with none older than 17 days. Of the nine editors who signed up, eight editors completed 22 copy edits (62,412 words). May drive: We set out to remove September, October and November 2017 from our backlog and all April 2018 Requests (a total of 298 articles). There was great success this month with the backlog more than halved from 1,449 articles at the beginning of the month to a record low of 716 articles. Officially, of the 20 who signed up, 15 editors recorded 151 copy edits (248,813 words). Coordinator elections: It's election time again. Nominations for Guild coordinators (who will serve a six-month term for the second half of 2018) have begun, and will close at 23:59 UTC on 15 June. All Wikipedia editors in good standing are eligible, and self-nominations are encouraged. Voting will take place between 00:01 UTC on 16 June and 23:59 UTC on 30 June. June blitz: Stay tuned for this one-week copy-editing blitz, which will take place in mid-June. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators: Corinne, Jonesey95, Miniapolis, Reidgreg and Tdslk. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

March GOCE newsletter
[edit]Guild of Copy Editors March 2019 Newsletter
Hello and welcome to the March newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since December 2018. All being well, we're planning to issue these quarterly in 2019, balancing the need to communicate widely with the avoidance of filling up talk pages. Don't forget you can unsubscribe at any time; see below. January Drive: Thanks to everyone for the splendid work in January's Backlog Elimination Drive. We removed copyedit tags from all of the articles tagged in our original target months of June, July and August 2018, and by 24 January we ran out of articles. After adding September, we finished the month with 8 target articles remaining and 842 left in the backlog. GOCE copyeditors also completed 48 requests for copyedit in January. Of the 31 people who signed up for this drive, 24 copyedited at least one article. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. Blitz: Thanks to everyone who participated in the February Blitz. Of the 15 people who signed up, 13 copyedited at least one article. Participants claimed 32 copyedits, including 15 requests. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. Progress report: As of 23:39, 18 March 2019 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors have completed 108 requests since 1 January and the backlog stands at 851 articles. March Drive: The month-long March drive is now underway; the target months are October and November 2018. Awards will be given to everyone who copyedits at least one article from the backlog. Sign up here! Election reminder: It may only be March but don't forget our mid-year Election of Coordinators opens for nominations on 1 June. Coordinators normally serve a six-month term and are elected on an approval basis. Self-nominations are welcome. If you've thought of helping out at the Guild, or know of another editor who would make a good coordinator, please consider standing for election or nominating them here. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Miniapolis, Baffle gab1978, Jonesey95, Reidgreg and Tdslk.
