Hi, Jonesey95. I just had time to check over the article, and here is a diff showing a few more minor improvements that I made. A couple spots I improved the prose, and the rest are cases where I changed the linking and the capitalisation of a few words. I see you figured out how to post the article to the drive page, as that has been done perfectly. Best wishes. -- Dianna (talk) 23:36, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
Thanks
I have made one complete and about half on the second one.
Yes, I am working my way through the redlinks in the artillery area. I feel that the Japanese equipment, other than ships, has been overlooked. I have added quite a few Japanese engines that were missing as well as a complete list of ships damaged by kamikaze and other suicide type weapons. Buster40004 Talk 06:52, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
- Fascinating. My grandfather served on a US Navy ship that was hit by a kamikaze plane in WWII. I don't have the details, but I have put in a request for his military records. Jonesey95 (talk) 06:58, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
- Take a look at the list here:Allied vessels struck by Japanese special attack weapons. This list is compiled from several sources, and includes cargo, support and ships other than US Navy ships. Buster40004 Talk 17:44, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi Jonesey95, I'm beginning the copy-edit you requested to the above article at the GOCE Request page. Please feel free to contact me, or to correct or revert my changes if I'm doing something I shouldn't. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 00:00, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
- Done - the article is chronically under-referenced and I've added tags to all the sections. Anyway, please feel free to contact me about any issues arising from the copy-edit. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 04:12, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
- Re: your response on the request page (it'll be removed in a few minutes!) - no worries. :-) Baffle gab1978 (talk) 19:45, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
WV County list
MANY THANKS! for the copy edit. I think that Charleston as the cap is covered very well in the WV state page as it did migrate a bit in its history, AND that is literally a potential book in and of itself. As to the FIPS codes, I agree, however, the astandard on all of the lists is what is there, BUT I like your idea alot. MUCH appreciate the workCoal town guy (talk) 16:15, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
Copyediting
Hi there! I see you fix general grammar and such and are part of the League of CopyEditors. This may be a long shot here, but would you be interested in giving this article a quick copyedit? It's fairly short, and currently a GAN. You may be busy at the moment and I understand, just thought I'd ask! Creativity97 18:17, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
- I'm going to pass for now. I see you posted it on the GOCE Requests page, which is the right thing to do. Someone will get to it. Jonesey95 (talk) 19:18, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks anyways. Creativity97 00:19, 10 February 2013 (UTC)
List of counties in West Virginia
Hi there. I saw that you noted on the GOCE request that "Someone else here should make one more pass", so I did that and am about to archive the request. Here's the diff. There's a new {{Clarify}} tag and a note about it on the talk page. Please let me know if I did anything you disagree with. Best regards, --Stfg (talk) 20:50, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
- MANY thanks again for your help. I posted a question on the FLC page as I have noted what appears to be a differing/more difficult standard for the FL Counties. I am however very appreciative of all of the help I receiveCoal town guy (talk) 14:49, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

VERY MUCH appreciate that!
Hey there- The WV county list FL was indeed a group effort and I could not have done that without alot of folks helping. I am very appreciative.Coal town guy (talk) 13:42, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for correcting the typo you discovered here. Out of curiosity, are you editing the article on behalf of the GOCE? --Another Believer (Talk) 15:10, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
- I looked at it because it was on the Requests page, but I'm not taking it on yet. I'm pretty busy for the next couple of days, but I'll take a look at it in early March. It's short, so it should not be a problem. Good job on the COI notice. Jonesey95 (talk) 16:09, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
- No problem, just wondering. Thanks, and thanks! --Another Believer (Talk) 16:39, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
Thank you so much for the thorough review. I went ahead and added the GOCE template to the article's talk page. I hope that is okay. Your time and assistance is appreciated. --Another Believer (Talk) 15:04, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

The .png for the drive page
Hi. Thanks for doing that. The slight blur didn't bother me, but is it sharper now I've removed the 260px value from it? Cheers, --Stfg (talk) 18:47, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
- No, it's still blurry. The 260px was my best attempt at a hack to make the image render at the same size as the original box. I suppose with font differences, YMMV, but the image at Commons is sharp. Compare to the original table, or to the original screen shot that I uploaded to the commons: commons:File:GoCE_March_2013_results.png. Jonesey95 (talk) 19:03, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
- Ah, I see. The file's image width is actually 274px, but I think the problem may be with the use of thumb. I've taken that out -- how does it look now? Wikipedia:Picture tutorial#Thumbnail sizes is a thumb-ping good read, by the way. --Stfg (talk) 20:13, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
- Still fuzzy, and now it's missing the caption. I did read through that page. Hmmm. Jonesey95 (talk) 02:21, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry about that. Last year we never bothered with captions, so I didn't even notice it. I've restored "thumb" now to redisplay the caption, and now I'll stop tinkering. Cheers, --Stfg (talk) 09:41, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Joseph Schwantner: New Morning for the World; Nicolas Flagello: The Passion of Martin Luther King
Thank you for taking the time to copy edit this article. I responded to your comments on the talk page. I like your edits to the prose (thanks!), but I removed semicolons from the Personnel section. In the album's liner notes, symbols indicate which musicians performed on select tracks for each instrumentation, so I used the same format here (track numbers following each instrument, if applicable). I hope this makes sense and that you find my edits agreeable. Please let me know if any other concerns need to be addressed or if you are not satisfied for any reason. Thanks. --Another Believer (Talk) 15:39, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
- When you have a moment, please see the two questions at the bottom of the article's talk page. I am wondering if the "revised" version should be mentioned, and whether or not it would be okay to merge the three Passion-related paragraphs into one. Thank you. --Another Believer (Talk) 16:36, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

GOCE Coordinator?
Are you interested in becoming a coordinator for the Guild? You're already helping out a good amount, and I think you've got a good head on your shoulders and would make a good fit. Nominations for the second half of 2013 take place in the first half of June, so you've got a week or three to think about it. Cheers. —Torchiest talkedits 12:48, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
- What are the responsibilities? Are they listed somewhere? I'll be away for a few days; I'll give you an answer when I return. Jonesey95 (talk) 14:06, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
- Pretty much all the information about it is at WP:GOCE/COORD and WP:GOCE/COORD/TASKS. —Torchiest talkedits 15:21, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
- Have you come to a decision on it, Jonesey? I was just thinking of maybe asking to nominate you, when I came across this. You've been helping the Guild out very nicely up till now, and I think you'd ease into coordinatorship without any difficulty. Cheers, --Stfg (talk) 12:56, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- Ganging up on me, eh? OK, I'll give it a shot. I've been doing some of the stuff anyway. As soon as I saw that I wasn't responsible for dispute resolution, I was in. I get enough DR in real life. I don't need more of it on the internet. Jonesey95 (talk) 05:23, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah, it's the same all over -- you do something useful and you get ganged up on for it. Well, the deed is done. Thanks for agreeing to stand. --Stfg (talk) 10:09, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

WP:GOCE July backlog leaderboard awards
Thank you very much for the Leaderboard Awards for the July GOCE backlog drive! I had a blast, & I'm looking forward to the next one! (& I'm already signed up for the August blitz!) Question: I thought, according to the WP:GOCE July backlog drive leaderboard awards, the first place in each category was going to be a "Gold" award, & the "Silver" award was for "the remaining Leaderboard slots in each category"? I finished with 3 firsts, 1 second & 1 fourth, & all my awards were silver. (Or did one editor need to finish in the highest slot in all 5 categories to "go for the Gold"?) JudyCS (talk) 01:51, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
- My apologies, especially after all of your hard work! This is my first month as coordinator, so I'm learning as I go. I have replaced your silver stars with the appropriate gold stars, which you unmistakably merit. Jonesey95 (talk) 03:29, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Re:Guild of Copy Editors' Requests page
Sorry, I have not noticed the alert. I already did it, but actually I only hid the resquest so I can retrive it later; is it ok?. Thanks to advise. Cheers, Gabriel Yuji (talk) 00:10, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
- It would be better if you removed them entirely and placed them in your own User page or a Sandbox page as reminders to yourself. Since the Requests page is edited by many people, your commented sections are likely to be removed by another editor. When you post these requests after your current requests are done, please post them at the bottom of the list. We try to go in chronological order to be fair to all requesters. Thanks. I'm looking forward to copyediting your articles. – Jonesey95 (talk) 00:15, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Articles
[moved from a Talk subpage] Looking for an appropriate place to further discuss Dubbing (filmmaking) proposed changes, especially regarding removing "Global use" section (How do I designate that in Edit Source to link it?) and creating a new article or merging it with an alternate (appropriate) article. Is this page okay for this purpose? JourneySarah (talk) 04:04, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
- I think a good way to start would be to create a Sandbox article. I've started one: User:Jonesey95/sandbox/Global_use_of_dubbing. Edit this article until you think it's ready to be published. We'll need a short summary of the Global use article to replace the long Global use section in the Dubbing article. I've created a placeholder for that.
- Once the sandbox article is "done", we can create it in the main article space and shorten the Dubbing article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 02:19, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
- Excellent. I will work on the sandbox page you created. Thank you. : ) JourneySarah (talk) 02:48, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Edit
Not sure why this change [1]? The refs should have a consistent format. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 15:27, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry about that. I have been fixing errors on pages in Category:Pages using citations with old-style implicit et al. and did not notice this formatting difference. Most articles I have seen have a broad mix of citation formats; fixing this error with a cite doi template does not make those articles worse. I have replaced the cite doi template with a cite journal template that fixes the original problem while maintaining the format. If I made any minor errors, feel free to clean them up. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:12, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

GOCE Help!
Hi! I saw your name on the leader board. I am new in copyediting through GOCE, so please could you help me out??? The problem I am facing is that I signedup of GOcE, but dont know how to edit so my work can also be tracked in the leaderboard... After signing-up, I did some editing, but it did not show up on the leaderboard... I think so, Im missing any step. Eagerly waiting to hear for you soon. Regards, Martinian (talk) 04:05, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
- The leaderboard is not automated. You update it yourself. You also update your article list yourself. The basic procedure is: pick an article that is tagged with the copyedit tag, use the Page Size script (or another reasonable method) to count the words, copy edit the article, remove the copyedit tag, then put the name of the article and the word count in the "Completed" list in your section. Add *O after the name if the article is "old" (from June or July 2012 during this drive) or *R after the name if it is from the Requests list (I recommend getting some practice with regular articles before diving into the Requests list). If you are a leader in any of the categories, add your user name and the appropriate number (of words or articles) to the correct spot in the table.
- As with all editing on Wikipedia, use the Preview button a lot to see if you're doing it right, and look at other people's sections to see examples of proper formatting. Thanks for participating! – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:54, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
Jonesey95, your review of this article seems to have stalled; I was wondering whether you were planning on coming back to it at some point. I've just made some comments, since I was there checking on the review hiatus, but was only looking at a few issues. Please return to the review soon; if you can't, then please post something there so the review isn't indefinitely delayed. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:39, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
- It was not clear to me that I was supposed to do anything else. I just put some comments on this review page after performing a copy edit on behalf of the Guild of Copy Editors. I was not intending to sign up as a reviewer, having never done so before and having not read the criteria thoroughly. I'll make a note on the review page. – Jonesey95 (talk) 21:16, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Waterhouse, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Walter Bagot (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Well, if I deserve one, you certainly do. Many congratulations for taking on such a huge task – and finishing it! Glad I was of some help towards the end.

I noticed that the list was going down faster than I was fixing them, but I had no idea who was working on them. Usually it goes the opposite way... I fix 5, and the number drops 2. Thanks for the help. Quebec99 (talk) 14:31, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, it's a tiny bit frustrating to be unable to see the previous state of a category to see who fixed articles that are now missing. I've resorted to taking screen shots or text captures, laboriously comparing before/after captures to find a missing article, and then figuring out who worked on the missing article. That person's Contributions list is usually full of similar fixes. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:35, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
GOCE Drive & rollover words
Thank you very much for the barnstars, Jonesey95! I had a blast! & thank you for all your hard work & coordination efforts! Question regarding rollover words: September 2013 was only my 2nd (so far!) Drive, & therefore my first "rollover words" occasion. For this drive, I finished with 173,509 total words. All articles were *O Older & *R Requests. So, 173,509 + 86,754.5 (50% bonus) + 57,725 rollover words (fm. July 2013) = 317,988.5 - 100,000 Caretaker's Star ... does this mean I'll have 217,988.5 rollover words going into November 2013 Drive?? How does that work? (Math makes my head dizzy!) JudyCS (talk) 04:25, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
- You do math well too! You got it exactly right. You can see calculations for everyone here. Our barnstars and rollover math are not really set up for people who edit hundreds of thousands of words. Just keep rolling over. Maybe in November we'll have to find a special 250,000-word barnstar for you or something. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:29, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for the clarification, Jonesey95! Math gives me a major headache -- that's why I work with words! I appreciate all of you guys & all your hard work! JudyCS (talk) 04:55, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
Thanks
Hello Jonesey95. Thanks for fixing the "unnamed citation parameter" problem at Sydling St Nicholas. I hadn't been able to work out why the red text was there. I see you've fixed more than just that page; can you tell me why introducing "%7c" fixes the problem without spoiling the web address? Thanks. PaleCloudedWhite (talk) 19:16, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
- The "%7c" is a substitute for the "|" character (sometimes called a pipe or vertical bar). Either one works fine in a URL (web address), but when a URL containing "|" is included in a Wikipedia cite template like {{cite web}}, the template interprets the "|" as "here comes a new template parameter" (e.g. "title" or "author"). So a URL like
http://www.foo.bar/foo.php?file=14|name=bar|show=yes
, which is perfectly valid, looks like this in a cite web template (note that the end of the URL is cut off):
- http://www.foo.bar/foo.php?file=14.
{{cite web}}
: Missing or empty|title=
(help); Unknown parameter|name=
ignored (help); Unknown parameter|show=
ignored (help)
- If you substitute "%7c" for each "|" in the URL, the cite template sees the whole URL as you intended:
- http://www.foo.bar/foo.php?file=14%7cname=bar%7cshow=yes.
{{cite web}}
: Missing or empty|title=

- I left the title parameters out of the above citations so that you could see the difference in the URLs. The "unknown parameter" error is displayed for citations when there is a set of | characters without an equals sign (=) somewhere between them.
- And one more slightly confusing thing: If you have a "title" or other non-url parameter with "|" characters in it, like "title=Review: Oscar-nominated movies | The Film Geek Web Site", that also leads to the error above. In that case, you need to substitute
|
for each "|" character. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:41, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

I suggest that you take a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Biography/Assessment#Quality_scale, suggest your own assessment on the Talk page, improve the article, or some combination of the above. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:00, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
Hi! Can you explain in the simplest form of what my error was toward my edit? I'm not an advanced user, so whatever was done was unintentional and maybe we can correct it to still have the edit up? Thanks! – edit by 80.67.17.247, 03:57, 17 October 2013 (UTC) (time stamp added by Jonesey95 because this user's edit added a bunch of extraneous text to the section above)
- It looks like you intended to add a few words, but something that you did caused the first part of each of the web addresses in the references to be removed. If you click View History on that page and compare your version with the one before, you'll get a screen that looks like this. The highlighted text on the left side is what you deleted (inadvertently, no doubt), and the highlights text on the right is what you tried to add. I reverted the whole edit because of the errors it introduced, and because you did not provide a source for your statement.
- Strangely, when you tried to edit this Talk page, you introduced errors into the section above the one you added. You can use View History on this page and compare your final version with the version before you started editing.
- I don't know what web browser or other software you are using to edit Wikipedia pages, but something is going wrong. You might ask for help at the Wikipedia:Help desk. Make sure to click the New Section button when posting a question. You can refer them to Jonesey95's Talk page if you want them to see what you're trying to explain. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:06, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
Canola - citations
Hi, Jonesey95. I invariably get something wrong with the citations, usually as I normally copy another citation and then replace the elements. Thanks for the touch-up. Where can I find an explanation of what goes where - for example the change that you made from "web" to "encyclopaedia"? Also, sometimes I see the various elements (author, date, url, etc) each in a separate line, other times all in a row - why is that? Is the one a more recent practice to be used in preference to the other? Thanks for your help. Regards, Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 08:18, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
- Placing the parameters on separate lines is something that some editors do to make things look neat and tidy while editing. It makes no difference in how the Wikipedia article looks. The software that displays the page is supposed to compress all "white space" (spaces, tabs, and new lines) into a single space, and it usually does.
- I changed "cite web" to "cite encyclopedia" (which still might not be the perfect choice, but it worked) because the citation in question was citing an entry within a larger work, as you do with an encyclopedia. If you want to dig in to some different types of citations and how the parameters work, Help:Citation_Style_1 is a good place to start. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:52, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
- Hi, Jonesey95. A belated thank you. You answered all my 3 questions succintly and productively. Best regards, Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 23:49, 20 October 2013 (UTC)

RE: Billboard Brasil ISSN
Hi. The ISSN number is a fixed identifier of a publication recognized internationally, and that number is the identifier of the Brazilian billboard. I don't have the magazine last month, as I also do not have some other as confer the hot 100 in Brazil in the billboard biz site and to ensure, after i use to borrowing the magazine and confer positions plus some sites for ever include true information because I really like the Brazilian chart and no fake things. bye. Thissz (talk) 03:30, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
- Thissz, is it possible that you are typing in the bar code (UPC) on the front of the magazine? That is different from an ISSN. ISSN codes are supposed to be only eight numbers. Can you provide a link, a photo, or a scan that shows the code that you are using? I expect that it is on the outside of the magazine or on the masthead. Thanks. – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:20, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
Editing my changes to the nuclear testing pages
Hello. I read the comment you left with the removal of the italics that I added to the inforbox; I did so because I thought that was the right theing to do, but I repect your greater experience in doing such editing . In the pages I added my table data to late yesterday, I refrained from touching the infobox, and will continue to do so into the future. I will remove the italics operators on the bixes I did earlier as other edits move me to do so, or you are welcome to do so (fancy that - my permission to edit wiki pages!). Thanks for your help. SkoreKeep (talk) 16:13, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you're talking about. I believe that you are referring to this edit of Operation Fishbowl. As you can see from the diff, all I did was replace a : with an = in the citation in order to make it work properly. If you are referring to a different edit, please let me know. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:14, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the swift response on the talk page. May I also point out that your 546 reviews seems a little ambitious article number wise(!)? Thanks, Matty.007 16:25, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
- What, you think I can't copy edit 546 articles in a month? Well, you're probably right. We do have one editor who has done that many in a month (and may do a few hundred this month), but I am not that good. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:52, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
- That could be this month's target! Matty.007 18:43, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
Deprecated year parameter?
Where was the consensus reached to make this change? I have started a discussion here. The year parameter is widely used and I see no reason to deprecate it. Boghog (talk) 07:19, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
|month=
is deprecated, and|year=
does not accept days or months, so I used|date=
to accommodate both parameters' values. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:38, 12 November 2013 (UTC)- Sorry for confusion. I now understand that it is the month and not year parameter that is deprecated, although I still don't see why it necessary to deprecate the month parameter. In addition, I believe it is a mistake to concatenate the year and month into a single date parameter since this can easily lead to inconsistently rendered dates and thereby defeat one the primary reasons why citation templates are used in the first place. Rather than concatenate, I think it is better to delete the month entirely and leave the year parameter as is. Finally there are an enormous number of citations in articles that use the month parameter and hence the month parameter will be retained for backwards compatibility for the foreseeable future. Why fix something that isn't broken? Boghog (talk) 18:24, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
- I don't know why or when
|month=
was deprecated from citations.

Why fix something that isn't broken? Boghog (talk) 18:24, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
- Regarding deleting the month data entirely: my approach to fixing citation errors has always been to preserve as much of the citation's information as possible. I do delete text when it is clearly redundant or incorrect, but if a previous editor has gone to the trouble of entering a month of publication for a journal article, I see no harm in preserving it and potential harm in removing it.
- Regarding inconsistently rendered dates: welcome to Wikipedia. Even our Manual of Style section on date formats allows for multiple date formats (although within a single article, dates are supposed to be rendered consistently). – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:36, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
- To ask an obvious question, if you don't why
|month=
was deprecated from citations, why do you find it necessary to remove the parameter? Boghog (talk) 20:17, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
- To ask an obvious question, if you don't why
- I do not know the reasons behind many of the consensus decisions that have been made on Wikipedia, but I respect the process that led to those decisions and assume that everyone documenting those decisions and implementing the results of those decisions is acting in good faith. I prefer to avoid the discussion/argument portions of WP and stick to fixing problems. The community has identified citation problems that are categorized in Category:Articles with incorrect citation syntax; I'm working on fixing those problems. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:51, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
- Your assumption that consensus has been reached to make this change may be in error. I have asked where the consensus for this change was made and so far no one has supplied me an answer. Before making additional changes, this needs to be discussed further. Boghog (talk) 20:59, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
Memory Erasure Template
Yes I did indeed intend to expand the article Memory erasure. I thought that I was working in my sandbox currently and then I was going to expand the article after I was finished adding the information. If this is the incorrect approach to take I would greatly appreciate you helping in taking the correct path. I moved my article out of the Sandbox into what i thought was the correct page to move it too but it appears i added it to Memory Erasure instead of Memory erasure. Youre help would be much appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mbirdsell3 (talk • contribs) 23:54, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

- Torchiest, I will be happy to be nominated as the GOCE lead coordinator. Thanks for thinking of me. I have a couple of ideas for things I'd like to improve, mostly housekeeping/operational items to make sure that we do the things we say we're going to do.

ISSN
Hi, what's wrong with this and this ISSN? --Eleassar my talk 22:25, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
- See ISSN for an explanation. Valid ISSNs contain eight numeric digits, or seven numeric digits followed by an X. The letters "Y" and "C" are not allowed in ISSNs. I have been fixing ISSNs over the last couple of weeks, and I have been able to find valid ISSNs for the vast majority of periodicals. Where I am unable to find a valid ISSN for something that looks like it might have one, I comment out the ISSN so that the original information is not lost. If you can find a valid ISSN for these publications, please add one. – Jonesey95 (talk) 23:19, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
- These ISSNs have been copied from reliable sources (COBISS 116333056, [2]), it seems that the Slovenes are using invalid issn numbers all across... What makes you think then than they're not valid - perhaps the article at Wikipedia is incorrect or these are exceptions? --Eleassar my talk 08:35, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
- Your COBISS link shows a valid ISSN after the first invalid one. I have put that in the article. Your second link shows an invalid ISSN (invalid according to everything I have ever read). I can't explain that, except to say that someone appears to have made a mistake, or perhaps the Slovenes have a different "ISSN" system that does not conform with the international standard. If you can find documentation that shows these Slovene ISSNs to be valid numbers, let me know.
- Slovenian publications are not using invalid ISSNs across the board. See this one, for example.
- I have fixed ISSNs in a little over 1,000 articles, and I have found a number of cases in which the publication itself lists an invalid ISSN. People make mistakes. I do my best to locate a valid ISSN, even if the publication itself does not know its own ISSN. If I can't find one, I comment out the invalid one and sometimes leave a note. See this diff, for example. I will also sometimes leave a replacement identifier, like an OCLC number, that provides the same service as an ISSN (i.e. a link to Worldcat). – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:50, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
- Ok, thank you. I don't think there is a separate standard for Slovene sources, so unless the standard changed at some time, these must be mistakes. However, when they're published in databases as ok (like C501-8889), I don't see why we should omit them here: they're still useful in finding the sources. --Eleassar my talk 21:38, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
Hello Jonesey95, yes, I would like help making that error message visible to myself. Jc3s5h mentioned the instructions for adjusting your style sheet so you can see all the error messages, yes, I saw in Category:CS1 errors: dates that I have to update my common or skin CSS stylesheet, but that is non-existent at the moment. Could you help me out? Thank you! Starship.paint (talk) 02:16, 4 December 2013 (UTC)
- Ugh, sorry to bother. I happened to look at Jc3s5h's user contributions right after I posted it, and I copied his actions to add the script to my User:Starship.paint/common.css. Perhaps could you double-check my script, but it seems to be working for me now. Sorry to bother! Starship.paint (talk) 02:27, 4 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for citation fix!
You must use some kind of automation to find so many little errors. Mine was using an obsolete "coauthors" parameter in a citation (it's still included in a Google books citation generator tool). I'm glad to know of the issue and wanted to thank you for your efforts. Agyle (talk) 22:47, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
- Errors like this one are listed in the subcategories of Category:Articles with incorrect citation syntax. The error messages and category assignments are generated automatically by the module that converts templates like {{cite book}} to citations in a readable format. I have been working since April 2013 to fix errors in many thousands of these articles and templates. Thanks for the note of appreciation.
- Can you provide a link to the Google Books citation generator tool? I'd like to look at it to see if I can recommend a way to avoid using the "coauthors" parameter. – Jonesey95 (talk) 23:45, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

Now the only ones left are the ones with date ranges. {{cite conference}} will be cleared by the job queue sometime in the next month or so. It's conceivable that we can get to zero.

Sorry, I don't dispute that this is an essay, but I'm much confused about why this page refers to chemical solutions when the majority of the advertising corporations put on New Page Patrol refer to what I believe to be business solutions. Because of this, I was led to believe that this was actually some sort of joke. In any case, the {{humor}} tag could apply to essays as it could apply to about anything else; in fact we have the {{humorous essay}} tag for essays specifically. TeleComNasSprVen (talk • contribs) 16:21, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

1000+ templates
Just today the job queue delivered 1000+ templates to the error category that you showed me the catscan report for. Most, I guess over 95%, can be fixed by a bot. Do you know of any bot that can do this and how to divert this bot to those templates? Debresser (talk) 03:00, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
- They are almost all cite doi and cite pmid templates. I fixed about 200 of them today and was just planning to crank through them over the next week or so. I have an AutoEd script that merges the month and year parameters into a date parameter, which will take care of about 90% of them. The rest appear to be malformed dates, and there could be a few in there with
|coauthors=
, but I'm guessing just a tiny handful. Trappist the monk and GoingBatty have access to an AWB script that should be able to fix most of the dates. If they happen to stop by, here's a link to the catscan report. – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:43, 23 December 2013 (UTC)- I looked at the ones in Category:CS1 errors: dates and was able to fix almost 50 of the cite doi/pmid templates. The rest have year ranges or multiple dates, which I'll defer to you. Happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 06:47, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
- The couple of pages in the catscan listed that I looked at had
|month=
and|year=
parameters. The AWB script at User:Trappist the monk/CS1 deprecated parameters (AWB) is designed to concatenate|day=
/|date=
with|month=
and|year=
into|date=
. When I return in a week or so it's my intention to robotize the script. If you're going to be correcting these kinds of errors, using the AWB script would be beneficial to me because you might find bugs in it that I haven't.

Most of the cite templates in the list have month and year that need to be merged, which the AWB date script does not currently do, but which my AutoEd script does with relative ease. Unfortunately, I do not have the technology required to use AWB, otherwise I'd love to be a part of that work. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:54, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

GOCE December 2013 Blitz wrap-up and January Drive invitation
December Notes from the Guild of Copy Editors
The December blitz ran from December 8–14. The theme for this blitz was articles tied in some way to religion. Seven editors knocked out 20 articles over the course of the week. Our next blitz will be in February, with a theme to be determined. Feel free to make theme suggestions at the Guild talk page! The January 2014 Backlog elimination drive is a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on January 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on January 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to copy edit all articles tagged in October and November 2012 and complete all requests placed before the end of 2013. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits at least one article, and special awards will be given to the top five in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in October and November 2012", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! ![]() Coordinator election: Voting is open for candidates to serve as GOCE coordinators from 1 January through 30 June 2014. Voting will run until the end of December.
