Request on 16:25:58, 30 August 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by LeoDavidZellet


Hello,

I've updated this article and was wondering if you could re-review it to see if it meets Wikipedia's requirements.

Thank you for your time.

@LeoDavidZellet: Hello! The sources in this article do not seem to mention the subject enough to show notability. Most only have trivial mentions, and the other ones don't seem all that reliable. Consider finding reliable sources that are fully about the subject, and the article may be accepted. Please feel free to leave a message again if you have made some improvements.

@Clearfrienda: Thank you so much for the advice.
@Clearfrienda: Just curious, Somos Productions is mentioned in a few other Wikipedia article, does that add to this submission's relevance?
@LeoDavidZellet: No, not really. Really the only thing that matters is the coverage in reliable, secondary sources. However, the sources in those articles probably do mention the company, and they might help you in its own article. Clearfrienda 💬 13:38, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

September 2021 Guild of Copy Editors newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors September 2021 Newsletter

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

                 Current and upcoming events

September Drive: Our current backlog-elimination drive is open until 23:59 on 30 September (UTC) and is open to all copy editors. Sign up today!

Drive and Blitz reports

June Blitz: From 20 to 26 June, 6 participating editors claimed 16 copy edits, focusing on requests and articles tagged in March and April. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here.

July Drive: Almost 575,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 24 people who signed up, 18 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here.

Other news

June election: Jonesey95 was chosen to continue as lead coordinator, assisted by Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis.

New maintenance template added to our project scope: After a short discussion in June, we added {{cleanup tense}} to the list of maintenance templates that adds articles to the Guild's copy editing backlog categories. This change added 198 articles, spread over 97 months of backlog, to our queue. We processed all of those articles except for those from the three or four most recent months during the July backlog elimination drive (Here's a link to a "tense" discussion during the drive).

Progress report: As of 18:26, 24 September 2021 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors have processed 468 requests since 1 January and there were 60 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog of articles tagged for copy-editing stood at 433 (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.
