I must be quite intolerant this day after cleaning up other crap around the places. I find the user's lack of communication and continued upload behaviour unacceptable. I have smacked a block on the user and believe that they 1) need to talk, and 2) get some guidance prior to resuming uploads. I said to the user that I would remove if they agree to those conditions, and I mentioned the teahouse, rather than the talk page, though I am willing to compromise. —billinghurstsDrewth22:59, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

Tidy will be replaced later this year. Instead, the HTML 5 parsing algorithm will be used to clean up bad HTML in wikitext. Thiswill cause problems on a number of wikis. They need to be fixed first. You can see if your wiki still has something to fixhere for one of the HTML problems. This list does not cover all problems. You can read aboutmore problems.[9][10]Tech news prepared byTech News writers and posted bybot •Contribute •Translate •Get help •Give feedback •Subscribe or unsubscribe.

Hi there. I think you were mistaken with your response to this unprotect request. True,Dabomb87 has not edited since 2014 but he only restored the protection after the PC trial. The actual admin who semi-protected the page wasBorgQueen who is still active. Not saying the change was a mistake but BorgQueen might have wanted to be involved.

I saw on recent changes that you removed a username that was offensive - FYI, it is also included inthis edit summary.Home Lander (talk)00:58, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

Is fighting over this minor addition to a page something worth fighting for? It's a single sentence which I think adds to the page. I've been a loyal member since 2011 and assure you I'm not just spamming. Thanks! -Scottwindcrest (talk)23:57, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

Guild of Copy Editors February 2017 News  Hello everyone, and welcome to the February 2017 GOCE newsletter. The Guild has been busy since the last time your coordinators sent out a newsletter! December blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 11 through 17 December; the themes wereRequests and eliminating the November 2015 backlog. Of the 14 editors who signed up, nine editors completed 29 articles. Barnstars and rollover totals are locatedhere. Thanks to all who took part. January drive: The January drive was a great success. We set out to removeDecember 2015 and January and February 2016 from our backlog (195 articles), and by 22 January we had cleared those and had to add a third month (March 2016). At the end of the month we had almost cleared out that last month as well, for a total of 180 old articles removed from the backlog!We reduced our overall backlog by 337 articles, to a low of 1,465 articles, our second-lowest month-end total ever. We also handled all of the remaining requests from December 2016. Officially, 19 editors recorded 337 copy edits (over 679,000 words). February blitz: The one-week February blitz, focusing on the remainingMarch 2016 backlog andJanuary 2017 requests, ran from 12 to 18 February. Seven editors reduced the total in those two backlog segments from 32 to 10 articles, leaving us in good shape going in to the March drive. Coordinator elections for the first half of 2017: In December,coordinators for the first half of 2017 were elected. Jonesey95 stepped aside as lead coordinator, remaining as coordinator and allowing Miniapolis to be the lead, and Tdslk and Corinne returned as coordinators. Thanks to all who participated! Speaking of coordinators,congratulations toJonesey95 on their well-deservedinduction into theGuild of Copy Editors Hall of Fame. The plaque reads: "For dedicated service as lead coordinator (2014, 1 July – 31 December 2015 and all of 2016) and coordinator (1 January – 30 June 2015 and 1 January – 30 June 2017); exceptional template-creation work (considerably streamlining project administration), and their emphasis on keeping the GOCE a drama-free zone." Housekeeping note: We do not send a newsletter before every drive or blitz. To have a better chance of knowing when the next event will start, addthe GOCE's message box to your watchlist. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators:Miniapolis,Jonesey95,Corinne andTdslk. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name fromour mailing list. |
