Speedy declined

I have removed the speedy deletion tag on Naruto-Arena. The article claims 3 million registered users of this website. This is a credible assertion of notability. It may be completely false -- no verification has been provided -- but it is credible. I will ask the author for verification of that fact. If allowed to stay, the article will clearly need to be rewritten. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:47, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

I invite you to take another look at the article. Maybe it's naive, but I think if its something with potential, it should have the chance. I thus took it upon myself to begin expanding the sorry stub that was so hurridly nominated, making it into something that can continue to grow to serve the readers. One of the first articles I found in my search for sources was a lengthy on in The New York Times that addresses the topic directly and in detail. Then one by one I found others with which to expand it. A topic's notability if determined through available sources, and policy specifically allows that future events may be written of if they exceed the WP:GNG. This one does. It now has sources and content and does not violate crystal. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 07:06, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Thank you very much for this. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 04:19, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

GOCE Drive Wrap-up

Guild of Copy Editors January 2012 backlog elimination drive
GOCE January 2012 Backlog Elimination progress graph

Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors January 2012 Backlog elimination drive! Here is your end-of-drive wrap-up newsletter.

Participation

45 people signed up for this drive this time; of these, 35 participated. This is similar to the number of editors who helped out in November. Thanks to all who participated! Barnstars will be distributed in the near future.

Progress report

Recent drives have been focusing on the oldest three months in the backlog. During this drive we were successful in eliminating our target months—July, August, and September 2010—from the queue, and there are less than 300 articles remaining from 2010. End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here.

When working on the backlog, please keep in mind that there are options other than copy editing available; some articles may be candidates for deletion, or may not be suitable for copy editing at this time for other reasons. The {{GOCEreviewed}} tag can be placed on any article you find to be totally uneditable, and you can nominate for deletion any that you discover to be copyright violations or completely unintelligible. If you need help deciding what to do, please contact any of the coordinators.

Thank you for participating in the January 2012 drive! All contributions are appreciated. Our next copy edit drive will be in March.

Your drive coordinators – The Utahraptor talk, S Masters (talk), Diannaa (Talk), Stfg (Talk), Sp33dyphil (talk), and Dank (talk)

GOCE March copy edit drive

Invitation from the Guild of Copy Editors

The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their March 2012 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on March 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on March 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goal for the drive will be to eliminate the remaining 2010 articles from the queue. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits more than 4,000 words, and special awards will be given to the top 5 in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", and "Number of articles of over 5,000 words". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Dank, Diannaa, Stfg, and Coordinator emeritus SMasters. 19:55, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Charlie Souza

Dear Tarheel95, I would like your help in editing my page so that it doesn't get deleted every time. I have made a short biography with some links (all verifyable) Not being well versed in Wikipedia, I am wondering why my page would be deleted? If you google Charlie Souza, it should confirm the text I have added on the page. Please help! Thank you sincerely, Charlie Souza — Preceding unsigned comment added by Charliesouza (talkcontribs) 18:39, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
