MAX Yellow Line
[edit]Hello:
I am also a member of the Guild of Copy Editors. I saw your note on the Requests page suggesting that another editor might have a look at the article MAX Yellow Line which you had copy edited. I had a run through it.
You are right, the article was in good shape. I broke up some lengthy sentences and tweaked some wording. I also removed a number of duplicate links to Wikipedia articles. (The general rule is to link to another page only once per article.) That's about it. The edits you made were fine.
Here's a link to the Wikipedia Manual of style in case you don't have it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style It may take some time, but you can usually find answers to most grammar/style questions here.
Happy editing.
Regards,

Mike Gapes and Khums
[edit]Hello:
I went through the two articles, Mike Gapes and Khums you recently edited for the GOCE. I am by no means perfect, but you might find it useful to have a look at the edits I made to the articles to see the additional issues I felt needed to be looked after in an edit.
Happy editing.
Regards,

March GOCE drive
[edit]Thanks for participating in the March drive. However, one of the articles you took credit for had only a minor punctuation fix and has been discounted. Please see Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives#Dos and Don'ts. Please don't hesitate to ask me (or one of the other coordinators) any questions. All the best, Miniapolis 19:09, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
