Concerns about a CE
Hi, another member of the GOCE is copyediting an article I nominated, and I have concerns about their changes. I searched the GOCE Wikiproject page but cannot find where to post my concerns to the coordinators. Where should I post these concerns? Thanks for your help. Z1720 (talk) 17:02, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
 * The best thing to do is to discuss the edits on the article's talk page. If that does not work, you are welcome to drop a message to the GOCE coordinators at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Coordinators. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:57, 5 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Kncny11 has left a note on the Requests Talk Page. You should detail your concerns there and the coordinators will review them. Thanks. Twofingered Typist (talk) 19:27, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

Copyedit
Whenever you have the time, could you copyedit beaver again? LittleJerry (talk) 01:21, 9 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Is the article stable now? This will be the third or fourth time I've worked on it. I don't mind, but there's a huge backlog of requests at the GOCE I'm helping to work through. Twofingered Typist (talk) 14:29, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Its stable yes. LittleJerry (talk) 20:05, 9 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Okay, I'll try to get to it a.s.a.p. Twofingered Typist (talk) 21:41, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I've run through it for you. Twofingered Typist (talk) 20:50, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Ce
Hi. Since you are a very experienced copyeditor, could you have a look at the article I co-created? I mean especially correcting grammar (e.g., verb tenses choice), spelling, and punctuation, awkward wording, citation format etc. If you find some time, I will greatly appreciate your help. Although the article is quite short, I am fully aware that you have a lot on. PS. I have already noticed a minor error in the title of the second reference (it should read: "Experimental Formation of Bio-Like Structures", i.e., with the final word in plural form). However, I have decided to leave it until the comprehensive copyedit and proofread are done. Thank you. Regards, --Pinoczet (talk) 17:15, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. I would like to take this opportunity to ask one more question. Is it necessary to use the definite article the in the following sentence (before described conditions): It has been implied that the conclusions were drawn due to too little critical attitude as it seemed impossible to create a cell under [the] described conditions.? PS. The sentence has been taken from the section Scientific reviews of the article. Kind regards, --Pinoczet (talk) 00:00, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
 * No worries! Your help is really invaluable. Thank you so much. Kind regards, --Pinoczet (talk) 16:20, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Current Ga prose
Hello. Thanks for copyediting the article Makoto Naegi. I had to cut some parts for the GA review but according to the review there are still some parts that need to be checked. I already replaced my own request in the guild with Makoto but I would appreciate if you give a quick review since the reviewer has been helping me with the prose. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 13:49, 19 February 2021 (UTC)


 * I've run through it again for you. I have left several masked messages you can see in edit mode where I simply could not understand what the sentences meant. This is a real problem for editors who have not played these games, I'm afraid. Twofingered Typist (talk) 16:14, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered
Thanks for picking this up. Just to let you know the Gameplay section needs to be extensively re-written and expanded to better detail the overall gameplay and not just the changes, so until this is completed I wouldn't focus too much on improving this part. Wikibenboy94 (talk) 14:26, 21 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Okay, I'd finished anyway. I'll add it was refreshing to read such a succinct summary! 700 words is the suggested maximum for plot outlines but that is really pushing a reader's attention span in my opinion. Twofingered Typist (talk) 14:50, 21 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your full copy-edit of the article, it's appreciated. There were two minor changes that I didn't agree with or believed to be incorrect and have changed. Please can you let me know whether you agree or not. Wikibenboy94 (talk) 23:57, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
