GOCE July 2012 Copy Edit Drive
Invitation from the Guild of Copy Editors
 The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their July 2012 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on July 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on July 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to eliminate the articles tagged in April, May and June 2011 from the queue and to complete all requests placed before the end of June. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits more than 4,000 words, and special awards will be given to the top 6 in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in April–June 2011", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Dank, Diannaa and Stfg. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

Last Edit?
Hey dude. I never edit on wikipedia. This message is a bit of a surprise. I've heard stories of users carrying IP addresses that can be used by multiple users. If you have any knowledge in regards to this I'd appreciate you sharing so I can make some sense out of this. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.58.169.134 (talk) 01:58, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
Please comment at Ya Kun Kaya Toast's ongoing peer review!
Since you have listed yourself as a peer review volunteer interested in copyediting articles, would you like to support the quest to counter systemic bias on Wikipedia by giving a thorough review of the short, but interesting, article about Ya Kun Kaya Toast, a multinational kaya toast chain and Singaporean cultural icon? Thanks! 谢谢！Terima kasih! நன்றி! --J.L.W.S. The Special One (talk) 10:09, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Romanization
Hi Phil, long time. What do you make of these mass additions? Best, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 15:48, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hmm ... Never heard of "Loktung" and I'm not sure how useful it is. I would rather see 乐东 in the article :) Best ► Philg88 ◄

Comments and Peer Review needed for BLP, contentious article on Yasin al-Qadi
Article for Yasin al-Qadi needs neutrality check, and I would appreciate your comments and any reasonable edits and suggestions.Markshern7 (talk) 12:39, 25 July 2012 (UTC)Markshern7
- Please see Talk:Yasin al-Qadi. He claims that it needs a neutrality check when the whole thing was not neutral at all. The best course of action was to revert it back to before his contribution where it was the most neutral. He's accusing people of reverting what he claims to be bad faith but it is not since they were doing it to follow Wikipedia policy such as WP:NPOV, WP:ALIVE, and WP:LIBEL.

History of Jardine, Matheson Holdings.
Hi,
I am impressed by your this article, do you worked for them before? I had my 10years sweet memory with them.
Regards, Mingsen — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.139.192.29 (talk) 06:06, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
- Hello, Minsen. Thank you for your kind words. No, I never worked for Jardines but I find the company fascinating. It all started because of the book Taipan by James Clavell, which I found out was loosely based on the founders of the company. The real story is much more interesting. Best Regards ► Philg88 ◄ talk 06:14, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
