Sorry for being a "vandal" just testing out the software-shaneoinsaino.
Thank you for keeping an eye on Employment equity (Canada) and reverting the vandalism. Canadian2006 ( talk) 02:11, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
James?
I cannot locate the "SWPPP" article content, of the page you declined. Given the detailed links and references I provided, I think you were a bit quick to not accept, and provide ideas on improvement within the new article.
In trying to find out what happened, I stumbled upon this: " Is Wikipedia in Decline? Scientists Search for Answers in Wikipedia's Numbers BY Clay Dillow Tue Aug 4, 2009" (I hesitate to place an http link here), which is exactly how I think. 5 years ago I posted numerous articles that remain today (often expanded greatly by others), now I can't post an obvious and easy one?
Worse, I do not wish to re-spend the time it took to create what I knew was a missing article, since the acronym is reference four times in Wikipedia, but with no explanation, and the work I did appears to be lost.
Poor choice, I will no longer attempt to post articles, count me as one of the (millions?) now disenfranchised.

Why did you revert my edit to the " Backseat Betty" article? It was purely constructive; it's not like I was vandalising. And I find it kind of insulting that you said if I'd like to experiment, to use the Wikipedia Sandbox. I know what that is; in fact, I'm a registered user on Wikipedia, but I just can't be bothered to log in at the moment. 110.33.2.127 ( talk) 16:11, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

For being a great GA reviewer, editor and friend. Thank you! - JuneGloom07 Talk? 23:06, 22 April 2010 (UTC) |
First off, on behalf of myself and my co-coordinator
Wizardman, I would like to thank you for the efforts that you have made so far in this
GAN backlog elimination drive. It has been nothing short of a success, and that is thanks to you. See this
Signpost article about what this drive has achieved so far.
We're currently heading into the final week of the drive. At this time, if you have any GANs on review or on hold, you should be finishing off those reviews. Right now, we have more GANs on review or on hold than we do unreviewed. If you're going to start a GA review, please do so now so you can complete it by the end of the month and so that the nominator has a full 7-day window to address any concerns. See you at the finish! |

It has been nothing short of a complete success, which hopefully results in more expedient good article reviews, increasing users' confidence in the good article nomination processes.
