Joe Gazz84 & Wiki Niagara Falls

Dear Joe,

I'm one of these people who gets side-tracked with detail. It comes of a lifetime in the software industry reviewing licence wording (-someone has to do it even though it's mostly tedious!).

The main thing that came of my exploring the minutiae of this Wiki article was discovering your input and more particularly that you were not well. I hope that you are fully better or at least heading that way.

Re the Niagara Falls Wiki article I'd spotted a couple of similar but tiny 'typo's' in the same sentence which I've suggested be edited/corrected.

Much more important -Hope you are in better health.

Kind regards and best wishes, Jan Chruscikowski, Aldershot, UK — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jan.chruscikowski (talkcontribs) 19:46, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Teahouse

Hi Joe! I hope you are doing well! I really appreciate your contributions at the Teahouse! It appears you haven't been able to be that active at the Teahouse lately! I understand that we all get busy with real life and wiki-life. :) I hope you don't mind, but, for now I am going to remove you from the your hosts page and move you to our past hosts page which will be linked from the hosts page. You are of course encouraged to move yourself back to the active host page anytime, including now if I am wrong! Or just drop by to lend a hand at your convenience. I'm really glad you were able to participate in the pilot! Enjoy the spring and see you for a cup of tea soon! Sarah (talk) 17:32, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know, Sarah. Things did get busy unexpectedly right after I joined the team. I hope to begin again soon! Thanks for your understanding!  JoeGazz84  ♦  21:05, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

GOCE May mid-drive newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors May 2012 backlog elimination drive mid-drive newsletter

Participation: Out of 49 people signed up for this drive so far, 26 have copy-edited at least one article. It's a smaller group than last drive, but we're making good progress. If you've signed up but haven't yet copy-edited any articles, please consider doing so. Every bit helps! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. Join us!

Progress report: We're on track to meet our targets for the drive, largely due to the efforts of Lfstevens and the others on the leaderboard. Thanks to all. We have reduced our target group of articles—January, February, and March 2011—by over half, and it looks like we will achieve that goal. Good progress is being made on the overall backlog as well, with over 500 articles copy-edited during the drive so far. The total backlog currently sits at around 3200 articles.

Hall of Fame: GOCE coordinator Diannaa was awarded a spot in the GOCE Hall of Fame this month! She has copy-edited over 1567 articles during these drives, and surpassed the 1,000,000-word mark on May 5. On to the second million! – Your drive coordinators: Dank, Diannaa and Stfg

Hi. You recently commented on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Indie hip hop that its sources were useful. But none of them seem to be reliable sources; either blogs, or, at least one of them is an insurance company site (weird?). Dan56 (talk) 19:24, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
