Landing of the first Filipinos

Hi RightCowLeftCoast, I was wondering if you were intending to continue with the GAN of this article at Talk:Landing of the first Filipinos/GA1; it seems to need very little doing to it. Or would you prefer me to fail it? Thanks. Gog the Mild (talk) 13:38, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

@Gog the Mild and Airplaneman: Sorry for my inactivity as of recent. My work responsibilities have increased, decreasing my time I have to spend editing Wikipedia, and on other projects of WMF. I would like to continue to working on my GANs, but understand if they are closed as fails. GANs can always be opened again, if they are listed as fails. If both, or one of you, are willing to be patient with me, I will attempt to address the concerns posted at the review pages, as soon as time becomes available.--RightCowLeftCoast (Moo) 00:54, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

@RightCowLeftCoast: No problem, RL happens. From my PoV there is no rush. So long as you are actively and positively engaged, take as long as you need. I shall take both off hold. Gog the Mild (talk) 11:55, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Just checking whether you would like me to take over the assessment of History of Filipino Americans. I don't especially want to, but will rather than see a decent article go unassessed. Gog the Mild (talk) 14:46, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Is there a consensus that the original reviewer has abandoned the task?--RightCowLeftCoast (Moo) 17:09, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

They have made a single edit on Wikipedia since 7 October; since 2 September they have been repeatedly pinged by HawkAussie. MrClog and myself without responding; they have only made a single contribution to the GAN, and that was to urge a quick fail. I don't think that they are coming back. Gog the Mild (talk) 17:30, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

I'm more than happy to keep Talk:Pensionado Act/GA1 on hold. There's no rush on my end. We will get to it when we can! Best, Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 19:24, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for the barnstar

The edit-a-thon went well. James an area Wikipedian came and helped us out. He was fantastic. People had a great experience. They're critique was that it should have lasted a whole day instead of a half day. Next year at the convention, I think I will try to be available for help with editing whenever the Women's Caucus space is not in use for other panels. San Diego is a beautiful city. Oh and as of yesterday we made 150 edits at the edit-a-thon.--Dzingle1 (talk) 15:33, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

Just happened to see this Dzingle1. Glad to hear the meetup went off well. I've followed quite a bit of the editing by the participants but they do not seem to have progressed much beyond their user pages and a few minor edits to existing articles. Please let me know if any new articles were created and I'll try to help them along.--Ipigott (talk) 17:21, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

Your San Diego editathon

I see you are arranging an editathon in San Diego on Monday with a focus on female biblical scholars. Please let me know if you need any assistance with the articles created during the session. Hope all goes well.--Ipigott (talk) 17:15, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

@Ipigott: I am only assisting Dr. Helen M Dixon with her endeavor on Monday, just as I assisted Dzingle1 (talk · contribs) yesterday. If I can assist those who are seaking to add/improve content within our user group's geographic scope, then it is a net benefit.

If travel to the event is not too much of an inconvenience, I am sure that Dr. Dixon would enjoy having an additional experienced editor assist her. Do you want me to contact her, to let her know you'll also be attending the event?--RightCowLeftCoast (Moo) 18:10, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

I'm in Denmark. Any help will be remote. I don't recognize the name Dixon but perhaps I know her by her user name. By all means let her and anyone else involved know that I would be happy to help remotely. Sorry I cannot make it physically. I know the area well having done business with La Jolla in the 1970s and 80s.--Ipigott (talk) 18:46, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
