Milli (Thai rapper)

Hello:

As a coordinator for the Guild of Copy Editors I have been checking the editing of articles submitted for the November drive. I checked Milli (Thai rapper) and made a few minor wording changes. I did want to point out that an artist's album names are italicised, their singles are put in quotation marks in case you edit another music article.

Thanks very much for your contributions.

Copy edit feedback on I Am the Best

Hey there! Thanks for joining the Guild of Copy Editors. One of the things we try to do with new copy editors at the GOCE is review their copy edits, especially of Requests and GAN/FAC candidates. I took a minute to review your edits to I Am the Best. You improved the article significantly, fixing grammatical errors and introducing many helpful links – I know that this takes time and care. I didn't find any errors that you made in your edits, but there were opportunities for additional improvements. I gave the article a bit more work, paying special attention to verb tenses, commas to offset years in full dates, hyphens, and serial commas. Please take a look at my edits, which put a little polish on your much more substantive edits, and let me know if you have any questions. Happy editing! – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:52, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

Why did you upload File:Mnet logo (2000, in black).png to enwiki and Commons at the same time? — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 06:05, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

@Alexis Jazz: I didn't upload it at the same time, I uploaded it onto enwiki first because I thought the logo was non-free but someone decided it was go in public domain, because of that, days after, I exported it to Commons. —beetricks ~ talk · email 12:24, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
Oops, I was confused because the upload time was the same, but that's normal with FileImporter. Yes, it seems to be below the threshold for originality. In the future you can refer to c:COM:TOO. In this case, c:COM:TOO South Korea. TOO varies from country to country, but the most important difference is the UK (and any country that inherited TOO law from the UK, which is quite a few because of history) and the rest of the world. (this is oversimplified but works as a rule of thumb) In the UK the TOO is really low, so logos like File:EDGE magazine (logo).svg are eligible for copyright protection. But the Mnet logo is even more simple than that (it's just "m·net") and South Korean TOO seems to be higher than that of the UK judging by the description on Commons as it requires originality. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 18:32, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

IU article

Hi Beetricks, I noticed that you would like to take the article to GA, I just wanted to say that if you need any help in working with the article since its huge, I'm willing to lend a hand. --Ashleyyoursmile! 16:19, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

I definitely will accept your assistance, thank you! —beetricks ~ 💬 · ✉️ 16:23, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
That's great! I read through the previous GA nom which was basically a failed nom, and noticed a few things that needs to be fixed with the current article. The one section/sub-section that definitely needs to be added is probably "Artistry" as with the articles of all musicians/singers. Any thoughts? Ashleyyoursmile! 17:20, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
I strongly agree with the addition of the "Artistry" section — one of the main driving forces of her career has to be her musicianship, which the article could explain a lot further since the subject is about a singer-songwriter. —beetricks ~ 💬 · ✉️ 17:29, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Senegalese expatriates in South Korea indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

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. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself. Liz Read!

Your signature

Please be aware that your signature uses deprecated <font> tags, which are causing Obsolete HTML tags lint errors. As explained at WP:SIGFONT:

<font>...</font> tags were deprecated in HTML4 and are entirely obsolete in HTML5. This means that the popular browsers may drop support for them at some point. Wikipedia is already preparing for this by delinting code project-wide through Linter. When support finally is dropped, the tags will be ignored in all signatures; any properties such as color and font family will revert to their default values. For this reason, it is recommended that you use <span>...</span> tags and CSS properties instead.

I have prepared a replacement signature string for you. You are encouraged to change your signature from

Thank you

for this - I would have just used the thank button but it appears I can't on revision deleted diffs. Their absence from the project is felt deeply by those they interacted with, and I remove your kind message reluctantly and with a heavy heart ~TheresNoTime (to explain!) 16:14, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

No probs. 😊 —beetricks ~ 💬 · ✉️ 16:18, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

December 2021 GOCE Newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors December 2021 Newsletter

Hello and welcome to the December GOCE newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since September 2021.

                 Current and upcoming events

Election time: Our end-of-year election of coordinators opened for nominations on 1 December and will close on 15 December at 23:59 (UTC). Voting opens at 00:01 the following day and will continue until 31 December at 23:59, just before "Auld Lang Syne". 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.

December Blitz: We have scheduled a week-long copy-editing blitz for 12 to 18 December. Sign up now!

Drive and Blitz reports

September Drive: Almost 400,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 27 people who signed up, 21 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here.

October Blitz: From 17 to 23 October, we copy edited articles tagged in May and June 2021 and requests. 8 participating editors completed 26 copy edits on the blitz. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here.

November Drive: Over 350,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 21 people who signed up, 14 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here.

Other news

It is with great sadness that we report the death on 19 November of Twofingered Typist, who was active with the Guild almost daily for the past several years. His contributions long exceeded the thresholds for the Guild's highest awards, and he had a hand in innumerable good and featured article promotions as a willing collaborator. Twofingered Typist also served as a Guild coordinator from July 2019 to June 2021. He is sorely missed by the Wikipedia community.

Progress report: As of 30 November, GOCE copyeditors have completed 619 requests in 2021 and there were 51 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog stood at 946 articles tagged for copy-editing (see monthly progress graph above).

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, Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis.

To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.
