Phillies player article collaboration
Well Brambleberry, I apologize for not jumping in on Erik Kratz, however I would like to do another collaboration. I thought of some possible candidates:
- Carlos Ruiz - needs some expansion, but has a framework in place
- Jimmy Rollins - needs some rewriting
- Cole Hamels - looks pretty close
- Darin Ruf - stub expansion
- Domonic Brown - similar to Chooch.
Let me know if interested, and if so, in which article. Thanks! Go Phightins! 21:05, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
- Well, I am interested in Ruiz, Rollins, and Hamels; since Hamels appears to be close and I have experience with pitchers, let us do that first! öBrambleberry of RiverClan 16:39, 25 November 2013 (UTC)
- OK, Colbert it is! I suggest we amass a to-do list, perhaps on the article talk page, and then get cracking. Later this week, I should have ample time to get started. Go Phightins! 22:42, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Help?
In the Warriors article, someone removed an entire section under "Main Series," but I only added the main heading back. I am unable to add the rest of the information back in because because the past article's edits are locked. 67.140.217.112 (talk) 05:19, 6 December 2013 (UTC)contributor

GOCE December 2013 Blitz wrap-up and January Drive invitation
December Notes from the Guild of Copy Editors
The December blitz ran from December 8–14. The theme for this blitz was articles tied in some way to religion. Seven editors knocked out 20 articles over the course of the week. Our next blitz will be in February, with a theme to be determined. Feel free to make theme suggestions at the Guild talk page! The January 2014 Backlog elimination drive is a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on January 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on January 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to copy edit all articles tagged in October and November 2012 and complete all requests placed before the end of 2013. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits at least one article, and special awards will be given to the top five in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in October and November 2012", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! Coordinator election: Voting is open for candidates to serve as GOCE coordinators from 1 January through 30 June 2014. Voting will run until the end of December. For complete information, please have a look at the election page. – Your drive coordinators: Torchiest, Baffle gab1978, Jonesey95, and The Utahraptor To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

Since I saw you were one of the FC editors at Signpost now, I thought I'd let you know an article I nominated, James Hogun, was promoted to FA on January 13 - exactly one year (to the date) after I created the article. This completes the five-article series I've dedicated the past 12 month on North Carolina's Revolutionary War-era Continental Army generals. Between June and now, all five were promoted to FA-status. Cdtew (talk) 00:01, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
- I'll see if we can get it in a special story for next week's issue. öBrambleberry of RiverClan 01:16, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
- Well, I'm not trying to toot my own horn too much, just thought the "exactly one year" thing might be a good fact - I know how hard it is to come up with fun things to say about a million FA's for an issue. Cdtew (talk) 13:51, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
- I'll let the other editors know; I was planning on taking a break for the week after last issue. öBrambleberry of RiverClan 13:59, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
