November copy edit drive

Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors Backlog Elimination Drive! The Wikipedia Guild of Copy-Editors invites you to participate in the November 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive, a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles that require copy-editing. The drive will begin on 1 November at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on 30 November at 23:59 (UTC). The goal for this drive is to reduce the backlog by 10% (approximately 500 articles). We hope to focus our efforts on the oldest three months (January, February, and March 2009) and the newest three months (September, October, and November 2010) of articles in the queue. Sign-up has already begun at the November drive page, and will be open throughout the drive. If you have any questions or concerns, please leave a message on the drive's talk page. Before you begin copy-editing, please carefully read the instructions on the main drive page. Please make sure that you know how to copy-edit, and be familiar with the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Awards and barnstars A range of barnstars will be awarded to active participants, some of which are exclusive to GOCE drives. More information on awards can be found on the main drive page. Thank you; we look forward to meeting you on the drive! — The UtahraptorTalk to me/Contributions, S Masters (talk), and Diannaa (Talk)

Fiji Mermaid

Dear Recognizance,

Could you please tell me where you sourced the Cruikshank mermaid print? I would like to obtain a high-resolution copy.

Many thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Loveandliberty (talk • contribs) 22:05, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Precious

hedonistic intellectual reasons
Thank you, sloth with "hedonistic intellectual reasons" and a "desire to improve", for quality articles such as Ostend Manifesto, for fighting vandalism with polite warnings and explanation, for improving Chinese culture, such as Second round of simplified Chinese characters, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!
