Re: Willing to do a copyedit pass on Ahmose I?
Sure! I'll get started on it tonight, and finish it as soon as possible. This is what I joined Wikipedia to do, and I ended up getting sidetracked with other noble pursuits...

Thanks for asking! —  E ditor at L arge  ( talk  ) 21:05, 24 August 2006 (UTC)


 * All right, I finished a basic grammar & punctuation edit and fixed up a few sentences. It's on my Sandbox; I had some comments hidden but have made them visible and bolded. Feel free to edit and fix it on my page; I have two sandboxes, so I don't need it back any time soon ;-)
 * I'm assuming that Thanatosimii is the "other Wikipedian" you were talking about, so if you could let him know where it is I'd appreciate it.

 * : I copied the original article into my User:Editor at Large/Sandbox and then replaced it with my edited version, so you can use the comparison tool in the history to see the changes I made. I figured it would be easier if you could see them now. —  E ditor at L arge  ( talk  ) 15:06, 25 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you very much for the copyedit pass. I didn't have the time last evening to look at things in your Sandbox, but will likely have time this evening or over the weekend to do so. Thanks very much for your help! In terms of other articles also in need of such help, I would point you at the ones for Pepi II and Hatshepsut. My bet is that Thanatosimii or Markh could point out more. Cheers! Captmondo 16:08, 25 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I've adressed all of Editor at Large's comments on the copyedit of Ahmose I, and I put the picture you added into it as well, so if there are no outstanding problems remaining in it that are brought up in the coming few days, I'll probably be putting it back on the normal page. I personally think it's ready for GA nominations too. Thanatosimii 21:40, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Category links
Just so you know, when you're applying a category to an article, you don't actually have to pipetext the article title into the category link unless you need the title to sort under a different letter than the one the title begins with. For example, for Stephen Harper you'd type, because the title begins with S but you need the article to sort under H, but for Sunny Days and Nights you can just type  , because that title begins with S and you want it sorted under S.

It's not a big deal or anything, but it might save you a few keystrokes on the typing. Bearcat 06:22, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
