== April 2021 ==

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello and [[Help:Introduction|welcome to Wikipedia]]. When you add content to [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk pages]] and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as at [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard]], (but never when editing articles), please be sure to [[Wikipedia:Signatures|sign your posts]]. There are two ways to do this. Either:
# Add four [[tilde]]s  ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment, or
# With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button [[File:OOUI_JS_signature_icon_LTR.svg|22px|link=Wikipedia:How to sign your posts]] located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-tilde --> [[User:Emir of Wikipedia|Emir of Wikipedia]] ([[User talk:Emir of Wikipedia|talk]]) 17:44, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
Thanks, I nearly forgot about it.[[User:SVcode|<span style="color:blue">SVcode</span>]]([[User talk:SVcode|<span style="color:green">Talk</span>]]) 17:46, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

== About your comment in [[WP:AFIN]] ==
Actually "I agree because its a pretty short article and can do expansion and rewritting." in that page should be modified a bit (its→it's and rewritting →rewriting). Please proofread the words that you type carefully before submission.--[[User:RekishiEJ|RekishiEJ]] ([[User talk:RekishiEJ|talk]]) 13:27, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

==Disambiguation link notification for April 22==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited [[Awrtable]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Pastoralist]]<!-- ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Awrtable check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Awrtable?client=notify fix with Dab solver])-->. Such links are [[WP:INTDABLINK|usually incorrect]], since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].)</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these [[User:DPL bot|opt-out instructions]]. Thanks, [[User:DPL bot|DPL bot]] ([[User talk:DPL bot|talk]]) 05:53, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

Nothing about your edits there makes any sense to me. Why would you import the Wikidata description, only to change it to something that is not the reason the article subject was notable less than a minute later? I see that you made seven edits in less than that one minute, suggesting you may be rushing through this task and not paying a lot of attention to the details. Please be more careful. Thanks.

== Short descriptions ==

Please be aware of [[WP:SDFORMAT]], which strongly recommends 40 characters or less. Many of the descriptions you're adding are much longer. Also keep in mind that short descriptions are shown as a subtitle in the search results '''below the article title'''. If the article title already contains the park name, then there's no reason to repeat that in the short description.{{pb}}For example, [[Raptor (Cedar Point)]] doesn't need to be "Steel inverted roller coaster at Cedar Point". Instead, use something like "Inverted roller coaster" or "Steel roller coaster". --[[User:GoneIn60|GoneIn60]] ([[User talk:GoneIn60|talk]]) 23:40, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to the September [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Newsletters|GOCE newsletter]], a brief update of Guild activities since [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Newsletters/June 2021|June&nbsp;2021]].

{{Center|'''Other news'''}}
'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Coordinators/2021/2|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 [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Archives/2021#Minor_backlogs|discussion in June]], we added {{tl|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 [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Backlog_elimination_drives/July_2021|link to a "tense" discussion during the drive]]). 

'''Progress report:''' As of 18:26, 24 September 2021 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors have processed 468 <!--221+179+66+2--> requests since 1 January and there were 60 requests awaiting completion on the [[WP:GOCE/R|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 {{noping|Jonesey95}}, {{noping|Dhtwiki}}, {{noping|Tenryuu}}, and {{noping|Miniapolis}}.
