Peer review limits changed

This is a notice to all users who currently have at least one open peer review at Wikipedia:Peer review. Because of the large number of peer review requests and relatively low number of reviewers, the backlog of PRs has been at 20 or more almost continually for several months. The backlog is for PR requests which have gone at least four days without comments, and some of these have gone two weeks or longer waiting for a review.

While we have been able to eventually review all PRs that remain on the backlog, something had to change. As a result of the discussion here, the consensus was that all users are now limited to one (1) open peer review request.

If you already have more than one open PR, that is OK in this transition period, but you cannot open any more until all your active PR requests have been closed. If you would like someone to close a PR for you, please ask at Wikipedia talk:Peer review. If you want to help with the backlog, please review an article whoe PR request is listed at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog/items. Thanks, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:36, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

EditorReviewArchiver: Automatic processing of your editor review

This is an automated message. Your editor review is scheduled to be closed on 8 February 2012 because it will have been open for more than 30 days and inactive for more than 7 days. You can keep it open longer by posting a comment to the review page requesting more input. Adding <!--noautoarchive--> to the review page will prevent further automated actions.

Sialoblastoma

Good evening: I uploaded a photograph, but for the life of me cannot figure out how to change it so that only a thumbnail shows on the far right hand side in-line with the text. Salivary Sialoblastoma H & E Histology LDRT.tif is the link. Many thanks, Lester D.R. Thompson, M.D. 05:47, 14 February 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Soca1zim (talk • contribs)

GOCE March copy edit drive

Invitation from the Guild of Copy Editors

The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their March 2012 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on March 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on March 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goal for the drive will be to eliminate the remaining 2010 articles from the queue. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits more than 4,000 words, and special awards will be given to the top 5 in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", and "Number of articles of over 5,000 words". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Dank, Diannaa, Stfg, and Coordinator emeritus SMasters. 19:38, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Why did I get rejected?

Hi Hallow,

I was just wondering why did my article get rejected? Your comment was put forth as:

"This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies."

However, I beg to differ.

First, my motive of posting up this article is not to advertise Waste Concern. I am just an ordinary student that did alot of research on Waste Concern and wrote the post according to ALL of the sources I have thronged through.

Second, I believe that putting a column under Problems for Waste Concern means that they are NOT doing a PERFECT job and they still got alot to improve upon. How is that belong to "advertising Waste Concern"? Must I deliberately put something that bring them down to qualify for a neutral posting?

Please advise. Much appreciated. :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Imannsk (talk • contribs) 15:20, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

I felt that the submission looked like advertising as some of the sentences in the article looked promotional. It shouldn't be too hard to fix the article and I will be happy to accept it once you have finished improving it. Also, you need not add more to negative content to bring them down if you have brought the over-positive sentences to a more neutral tone. Cheers, Hallows AG (talk) 11:25, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi Hallow,

I have changed those words that might connote "advertising". Hopefully you can read it and get it approved as soon as possible.

Cheers! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Imannsk (talk • contribs) 14:48, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
