 * 300 - chipping chipping, and noting that C-F are done. --joe deckertalk to me 15:46, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

 * 264 - I --joe deckertalk to me 16:48, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 257 - --Milowent • talkblp-r 06:10, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

 * 212 - K --joe deckertalk to me 16:44, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 205 and 3001 on the full count. The-Pope (talk) 17:15, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 200 - We're on a single page, and the red button count is now under 3K. --joe deckertalk to me 18:03, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 187 - I'm sensing less completely unreferenced BLPs being created recently. Hoping it is a real improvement. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 06:29, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 178 - and well done to User:Michig for cleaning out April 2011, only deletion candidates left. Top work! The-Pope (talk) 17:08, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 169 - I ponder who was ever so gung ho about voice actors in cartoons.--Milowent • talkblp-r 19:01, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Random factoid: voice actors make up about 2% of our remaining BLP backlog--sure feels like a lot more than that, though! (I think in part because at least the ones I've come across have ended up disproportionately at deletion.) --joe deckertalk to me 21:33, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 124 - R has just one entry left, proposed for deletion -- Whpq (talk) 19:53, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 117 - And another freelance tv reporter with a 5 year old stale BLP is prodded. Seeing some of those old forgotten bios reminds you a bit of what wikipedia pages looked like 5 years ago.--Milowent • talkblp-r  21:19, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 103 - whittlin' away... --joe deckertalk to me 05:13, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 89 - L is clear with one sent to AFD. -- Whpq (talk) 14:55, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 86 - Y down, I was very worried about being able to find a source for Reiji Yamada, but eventually I found an "Effective Remedy in the despair" --joe deckertalk to me 15:48, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I'll be here all week. --joe deckertalk to me 15:48, 14 July 2011 (UTC)


 * 76-32 on deletion death row = 44 and 2797 on the BRB. Came across two recent deaths and a born in 1895 tonight... been a while since I'd had a uBDP. The-Pope (talk) 16:34, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 65 T down, plus some more prodded than before, I think.--Milowent • talkblp-r 20:06, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 55 - M down, three letters left, can't be that many left now.--Milowent • talkblp-r 22:32, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 51 - N done. 2 letters left.--Milowent • talkblp-r  23:07, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 39 - S done, only a handful left. --joe deckertalk to me 01:21, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * 35 - 35 = 0 and we're done. --joe deckertalk to me 01:48, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Yay! I presume we move to july next?  I would set it up, but I'm not sure i can duplicate all the fancy stuff the tech wizards now include!--Milowent • talkblp-r  03:59, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, i have barebones in place above.--Milowent • talkblp-r 04:03, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * July's great, I think I filled in the other stuff, but it'll be the morning here before I get back to helping. Night all!  --joe deckertalk to me 04:37, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
