Hi, I have removed the two external links you added to Northern Inuit Dog as they were both to breeders personal websites - sorry, these do not get included in dog breed articles as they are trying to sell pups. Thanks for trying to find extra info about the breed though. SagaciousPhil - Chat 17:57, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

Congratulations on becoming a coordinator! As you probably already know, the main tasks involve making sure all the pages are kept up to date and properly organized. If you haven't already, add WP:GOCE/COORD to your watchlist, since that's where we can consult with each other on administrative questions. I'm working on putting together a task list to make it easier to remember all the little details of project maintenance. Let me know if you have any questions. — Torchiest talk edits 14:26, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
It's the "mostly" I'm thinking about :-). All the best, Anne Miniapolis ( talk) 21:24, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello Miniapolis,
I've come to your page via my membership in the Guild of Copy Editors. I have been editing wikipedia for two and a half years or so. I'm from Guam and have an interest in Guam related articles and Micronesia related articles. As you can see from my contributions most of my edits are Gnome-like, nothing spectacular. I enjoy wikipedia and learn more and more everyday. I am by no means an expert. But I try. That being said, after almost three years here I would like to make more significant edits and perhaps even create a page or two. But I feel I'm not ready. So I'm looking for some sort of Copy Edit mentorship. I don't know what that would entail and if you would be interested in mentorship but I feel I've learned about as much as I can here without asking for help. Thank you.

Thank you so much Miniapolis for your very prompt response to my request for a copy editor to help us with the FA review of Dog conch! This is Project Gastropods very first attempt at an FA, so we are newbies at this. Plus much of the text of the article was put together by people for whom English is not their first language. Your copy edits so far look really great, and thanks so much for putting in alt text on the images, something we (and the reviewers so far) have overlooked!

Just wondering what the wordcount signifies? Is it words added, words changed, etc? It may seem like an odd question, but I've copy-edited Andrew A. Jacono, and since quite some text was irrelevant or just superfluous, I ended up with about 120 words less than the original... Thanks in advance! Mathijsvs ( talk) 12:02, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Geet Ramayan, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page LP ( 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.

Hey! Could you take a little look at Santa María de La Cabeza castle and do some copyedits to it? It's a pretty short article and should only take some 20 minutes to read and copyedit. I have worked on it doing copyedits, but I'm still not comfortable with it and may need an outsider to fix what I can't see. Thanks. — ΛΧΣ 21 15:42, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi Anne. Good move! In addition, thngs like "... programme's launch .[4]" stink of copy-paste, possibly in this case from elsewhere in wikipedia, as there's an unsuperscripted "[dated info]" later on. Have you run copyvio checks? Cheers, Simon. -- Stfg ( talk) 17:04, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
