I'd like to ask your help in creating a biography article on reporter Bob Wyrick. I've got some COI in the subject so I don't want to touch it, but I'm sure the fellow's notable. I did a little looking and wrote some [[User:Cloveapple/notes3|very rough notes]] but haven't dug very far. I'd appreciate it if you could take a look to see if you think there's a stub or an article in it. Either way I'll leave it alone except for this request.

Interwiki link to the section
Is it appropriate to add an interwiki link to not the entire article, but to the section of this article? I. e. in en-wiki Rubeus Hagrid is an article; in ru-wiki Rubeus Hagrid is a redirect to the section of the common list. So may I add interwiki from en-wiki to the section of this list? ♪ anonim.one ♪ 20:11, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

GOCE March drive newsletter
Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 backlog elimination drive update
![]() Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 Backlog elimination drive! Here's the mid-drive newsletter. Participation: We have had 58 people sign up for this drive so far, which compares favorably with our last drive, and 27 have copy-edited at least one article. If you have signed up but have not yet copy-edited any articles, please consider doing so. Every bit helps! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. Join us! Progress report: Our target of completing the 2010 articles has almost been reached, with only 56 remaining of the 194 we had at the start of the drive. The last ones are always the most difficult, so thank you if you are able to help copy-edit any of the remaining articles. We have reduced the total backlog by 163 articles so far. Special thanks: Special thanks to Stfg, who has been going through the backlog and doing some preliminary vetting of the articles—removing copyright violations, doing initial clean-up, and nominating some for deletion. This work has helped make the drive a more pleasant experience for all our volunteers. Your drive coordinators – Dianna (talk), Stfg (talk), and Dank (talk)To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list. |

Wikipedia:Twinkle and Teahouse
Hello again!
I trust you are well. Since our last communication I have on several occasions attempted to follow your advice and activate Twinkle, but to no avail. It has now dawned on me that it won't work because I have Internet Explorer 8. I suppose that apart from buying a new computer – which I can't afford (mine's aged 12 years, but I have upgraded to XP02) – there is nothing I can do about it.
Today, I have discovered Teahouse. Looks great. Posted a query. All the best, Gareth Griffith-Jones (talk) 12:29, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
- Hi! Is there a reason that you are unable to download and use Firefox? I also have Internet Explorer on my computer, but I opt to use Firefox and it works quite a bit better for me. Hope you are well! Best regards, Cindy(talk to me) 15:44, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
- You are a star. I have successfully down-loaded Mozilla Firefox, and not only do I have Twinkle, I have a PC that I don't recognise. It is so fast. See my tonight's posting on Teahouse... it is all thanks to you, Cindy. With best wishes, Gareth Griffith-Jones (talk) 01:49, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
- Postscript: I have just noticed that you have changed the style of your signature. I liked the previous one. Gareth Griffith-Jones (talk) 01:49, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
