GOCE March drive newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 backlog elimination drive update Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 Backlog elimination drive! Here's the mid-drive newsletter. Participation: We have had 58 people sign up for this drive so far, which compares favorably with our last drive, and 27 have copy-edited at least one article. If you have signed up but have not yet copy-edited any articles, please consider doing so. Every bit helps! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. Join us! Progress report: Our target of completing the 2010 articles has almost been reached, with only 56 remaining of the 194 we had at the start of the drive. The last ones are always the most difficult, so thank you if you are able to help copy-edit any of the remaining articles. We have reduced the total backlog by 163 articles so far. Special thanks: Special thanks to Stfg, who has been going through the backlog and doing some preliminary vetting of the articles—removing copyright violations, doing initial clean-up, and nominating some for deletion. This work has helped make the drive a more pleasant experience for all our volunteers. Your drive coordinators – Dianna (talk), Stfg (talk), and Dank (talk) To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

--Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:03, 1 January 2019 (UTC)

Thank you Gerda. What a beautiful space, and I wonder if the acoustics are good as well. I wish you lots of happiness in your music and family in the new year.Littleolive oil (talk) 04:12, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

I'd love to go to the place and find out! I performed in the church also pictured on yesterday's Main page, and acoustics are good for Bach, a bit on the dry side. I performed Beethoven's Ninth there also, and am invited to sing in the next project, Puccini's Messa di Gloria ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:33, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

Please check out "Happy" once more, for a smile, and sharing (a Nobel Peace Prize), and resolutions. I wanted that for 1 January, but then wasn't sad about having our music pictured instead. Not too late for resolutions, New Year or not. DYK that he probably kept me on Misplaced Pages, back in 2012? By the line (which brought him to my attention, and earned the first precious in br'erly style) that I added to my editnotice, in fond memory? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:29, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

Thanks Gerda.:O)Littleolive oil (talk)
