== Copy edit notes ==

Great work on the copy edit of [[Murtaja Qureiris]]!  You made lots of improvements to an article which was in fairly rough shape, and went above-and-beyond with the citation work and restoring the corrupted quotations.  I see that your account is pretty new, so I'm going to leave you a few notes.

Wikipedia has developed a [[style guide]] for its particular requirements as an international online encyclopedia.  This is outlined in our ''Manual of Style'' (shortcut: [[WP:MOS]]).  It's a long series of guidelines which goes into quite a bit of detail and is mainly intended as a reference work.  You might instead want to start with [[User:Tony1/Beginners%27_guide_to_the_Manual_of_Style|Beginners' guide to the Manual of Style]] and there are other useful pages listed at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/How to]].

Some specific notes:
*Wikipedia uses the logical quotation system ([[MOS:LQ]]) which places punctuation outside of the quotes unless it is part of the quotation.  So with {{tq| joining a "terror group" and "sowing sedition," and was arrested}} it should be {{tq|"sowing sedition", and was arrested}}.  I know it can look a little weird and it took me a while to get used to it, but it's a style which has been gaining popularity and can avoid a bit of confusion in some cases.
**Commas are often misplaced, so keep an eye on them when copy editing.
* In one place you had "human right group" instead of "human rights groups". Be careful that these are consistent to avoid confusion.
*There were a few curly apostrophes and quotation marks ([[MOS:CURLY]]), but that's really nit picking.
*Singular possessives always get a ''{{'}}s'' ([[MOS:POSS]]), so {{tq|Queiris' case}} &rarr; {{tq|Queiris's case}}.

I fixed those little things, you can see a "diff" with my changes [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Murtaja_Qureiris&diff=905366467&oldid=904937983 here].  Overall, great work! – [[User:Reidgreg|Reidgreg]] ([[User talk:Reidgreg|talk]]) 17:37, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to the September newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since June&nbsp;2019.

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Coordinators/2019/2|June election]]:''' Reidgreg was chosen as lead coordinator, and is being assisted by Baffle gab1978, Miniapolis, Tdslk, and first-time coordinator Twofingered Typist. Jonesey95 took a respite after serving for six years. Thanks to everyone who participated!

[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/June 2019|'''June Blitz''']]: From 16 to 22 June, we copy edited articles on the themes of nature and the environment along with [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Requests|requests]]. 12 participating editors completed 35 copy edits. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/June 2019/Barnstars|here]].

[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/July 2019|'''July Drive''']]: The year's fourth backlog-elimination drive was a great success, clearing all articles tagged in January and February, and bringing the copy-editing backlog to a low of five months and a record low of '''585 articles''' while also completing 48 requests. Of the 30 people who signed up, 29 copyedited at least one article, a participation level last matched in May&nbsp;2015. Final results and awards are listed [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/July 2019/Barnstars|here]].

[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/August 2019|'''August Blitz''']]: From 18 to 24 August, we copy edited articles tagged in March&nbsp;2019 and requests. 12 participating editors completed 26 copy edits on the blitz. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/August 2019/Barnstars|here]].

'''Progress report:''' As of 03:00, 23 September 2019 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors had processed 413 requests since 1 January. The backlog of tagged articles stood at 599 articles, close to our record month-end low of 585.

'''[[WP:GOCER|Requests page]]:''' We are experimenting with automated archiving of copy edit requests; a discussion [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Requests&oldid=917208048#Bot_integration? on REQ Talk (permalinked)] initiated by [[User:Bobbychan193|Bobbychan193]] has resulted in [[User:Zhuyifei1999|Zhuyifei1999]] writing [[toolforge:yifeibot/enwiki_gce_archive.py.txt|a bot script]] for the Guild. Testing is now underway and is expected to be completed by 3&nbsp;October; for this reason, '''no manual archiving of requests should be done until the testing period is over'''. We will then [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/YiFeiBot 2|assess the bot's performance]] and discuss whether to make this arrangement permanent.

[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/September 2019|'''September Drive''']]: Our current backlog-elimination drive is open until 23:59 on 30 September (UTC) and is open to all copy editors. Sign up today!

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|Baffle gab1978}}, {{noping|Miniapolis}}, {{noping|Reidgreg}}, {{noping|Tdslk}} and {{noping|Twofingered Typist}}.

Hello and welcome to the December 2019 GOCE newsletter, an update of Guild happenings since the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Newsletters/September 2019|September edition]]. Our Annual Report should be ready in late January.

[[File:Copyeditors progress.png|right|thumb]]

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Coordinators/2020/1|Election time]]''': Nominations for the election of a new tranche of Guild coordinators to serve for the first half of 2020 will be open from 1 to 15&nbsp;December. Voting will then take place and the election will close on 31&nbsp;December at 23:59 UTC. Positions for Guild coordinators, who perform the important behind-the-scenes tasks that keep our project running smoothly, are open to all Wikipedians in good standing. We welcome self-nominations so please consider nominating yourself if you've ever thought about helping out; it's ''your'' Guild and it doesn't run itself!

[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/September 2019|'''September Drive''']]: Of the thirty-two editors who signed up, twenty-three editors copy edited at least one article; they completed 39 requests and removed 138 articles from the backlog, bringing the backlog to a low of 519 articles.

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/October 2019|October Blitz]]''': This event ran from 13 to 19 October, with themes of science, technology and transport articles tagged for copy edit, and Requests. Sixteen editors helped remove 29 articles from the backlog and completed 23 requests.

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/November 2019|'''November Drive''']]''': Of the twenty-eight editors who signed up for this event, twenty editors completed at least one copy edit; they completed 29 requests and removed 133 articles from the backlog.

Our '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/December 2019|December Blitz]]''' will run from 15 to 21 December. Sign up now!

'''Progress report''': From September to November 2019, GOCE copy editors processed 154 requests<!--includes 7 declined or withdrawn-->. Over the same period, the backlog of articles tagged for copy editing was reduced by 41% to an '''all-time low of 479 articles'''.

'''Request archiving''': The archiving of completed requests has now been automated. Thanks to {{noping|Zhuyifei1999}} and {{noping|Bobbychan193}}, '''{{noping|YiFeiBot}}''' is now archiving the [[WP:GOCER|Requests page]]. Archiving occurs around 24&nbsp;hours after a user's signature and one of the templates '''{{tl|Done}}''', '''{{tl|Withdrawn}}''' or '''{{tl|Declined}}''' are placed below the request. The bot uses the Guild's standard "purpose codes" to determine the way it should archive each request so it's important to use the [[Template:Editnotices/Page/Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Requests|correct codes and templates]]. 

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|Reidgreg}}, {{noping|Baffle gab1978}}, {{noping|Miniapolis}}, {{noping|Tdslk}} and {{noping|Twofingered Typist}}.

Hello and welcome to the March newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since December&nbsp;2019. All being well, we're planning to issue these quarterly in 2020, balancing the need to communicate widely with the avoidance of filling up talk pages. Don't forget you can unsubscribe at any time; see below.

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Coordinators/2020/1|Election results]]''': There was little changeover in the roster of Guild Coordinators, with Miniapolis stepping down with distinction as a ''coordinator emeritus'' while Jonesey95 returned as lead coordinator.  The next election is scheduled for June&nbsp;2020 and all Wikipedians in good standing may participate.

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/January 2020|January Drive]]''': Thanks to everyone for the splendid work, completing 215 copy edits including 56 articles from the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Requests|Requests page]] and 116 backlog articles from the target months of June to August&nbsp;2019. At the conclusion of the drive there was a '''record low of 323 articles''' in the copy editing backlog. Of the 27 editors who signed up for the drive, 21 copyedited at least one article. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/January 2020/Barnstars|here]].

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/February 2020|February Blitz]]''': Of the 15 editors who signed up for this one-week blitz, 13 completed at least one copy edit. A total of 32 articles were copy edited, evenly split between the twin goals of requests and the oldest articles from the copy-editing backlog. Full results are [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/February 2020/Barnstars|here]].

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/March 2020|March Drive]]''': Currently underway, this event is targeting requests and backlog articles from September to November&nbsp;2019. As of 18&nbsp;March, the backlog stands at a '''record low of 253 articles''' and is expected to drop further as the drive progresses. Awards will be given to everyone who copyedits at least one article from the backlog. Help set a new record and sign up now!

'''Progress report:''' As of 18 March, GOCE copyeditors have completed 161 requests in 2020 and there was a net reduction of 385 articles from the copy-editing backlog&nbsp;– a 60% decrease from the beginning of the year. Well done and thank you everyone!<!--Coords can update or remove this line before sending the newsletter. -->

'''Election reminder''': It may only be March but don't forget our mid-year Election of Coordinators opens for nominations on 1&nbsp;June. [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Coordinators|Coordinators]] normally serve a six-month term and are elected on an approval basis. Self-nominations are welcome. If you've thought of helping out at the Guild, or know of another editor who would make a good coordinator, please consider standing for election or nominating them [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Coordinators/2020/2|here]].

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|Baffle gab1978}},  {{noping|Reidgreg}}, {{noping|Tdslk}} and {{noping|Twofingered Typist}}

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/March 2020|March Drive]]''': [[Self-isolation]] from [[2019–20 coronavirus pandemic|coronavirus]] may have played a hand in making this one of our most successful backlog elimination drives.  The copy-editing backlog was reduced from 477 to a '''record low of 118 articles''', a 75% reduction. The last four months of 2019 were cleared, reducing the backlog to three months. Fifty requests were also completed, and the total word count of copy-edited articles was 759,945. Of the 29 editors who signed up, 22 completed at least one copy edit. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/March 2020/Barnstars|here]].

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/April 2020|April Blitz]]''': This blitz ran from 12 to 18&nbsp;April with a theme of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Indian military history task force|Indian military history]]. Of the 18 people who signed up, 14 copyedited at least one article. Participants claimed a total of 60 copyedits. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/April 2020/Barnstars|here]].

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/May 2020|May Drive]]''':  This event marked the 10th anniversary of the GOCE's copy-editing drives, and set a goal of diminishing the backlog to just one month of articles, as close to zero articles as possible. '''We achieved the goal of eliminating all articles that had been tagged prior to the start of the drive, for the first time in our history!''' Of the 51 editors who signed up, 43 copyedited at least one article. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/May 2020/Barnstars|here]].

<div style="text-align: center;">'''Other news'''</div>

'''Progress report''': as of 2&nbsp;June, GOCE participants had processed 328 requests since 1&nbsp;January, which puts us on pace to exceed any previous year's number of requests. As of the end of the May drive, the backlog stood at just 156 articles, all tagged in May 2020.

'''Outreach''': To mark the 10th anniversary of our first Backlog Elimination Drive, [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost|''The Signpost'']] contributor and GOCE participant {{noping|Puddleglum2.0}} interviewed project coordinators and copy-editors for the journal's [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2020-04-26/WikiProject_report|April WikiProject Report]]. The Drive and the current Election of Coordinators have also been covered in ''The Signpost''{{'s}} [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2020-05-31/News and notes|May News and Notes page]].
