This Copy Editing Backlog Elimination Drive was a one-month-long effort of the Guild of Copy Editors to reduce the backlog of articles that require copyediting, signified with the {{copyedit}} tag. Please make sure that you know how to copyedit and that you are familiar with the Wikipedia Manual of Style before you begin copyediting. The coordinator for this drive was Diannaa (Talk) and she was assisted by S Masters (talk) and The UtahraptorTalk to me. If you have any questions, leave a message in the drive's talk page. This drive began on 1 November 2010 00:00 UTC and ended on 30 November 2010 23:59 UTC.
The goals of this backlog elimination drive were to eliminate the oldest three months (Jan, Feb March 2009), and the previous three months (Aug, Sept, Oct and Nov 2010); and to reduce the overall backlog by 10%. We also wanted to make sure the Requests page is dealt with during the drive so any articles you selected from that page counted for double word count this drive. Awards will be given out to those individuals who help reduce the size of the backlog.
The backlog elimination drive is open to all, and you do not need to be a member of the Guild of Copy Editors to participate. However, you may want to consider joining as membership has its benefits. For example, you can place a special "page in use" tag when you are copyediting, and another on the talk page when you finish. Please visit the Guild or the main drive page for more information.
Full instructions, tips and awards
[edit]Full instructions for participants, tips, help for new copyeditors, useful tags, and details of the many barnstars available for the drive can be found on the main drive page. Please read this page carefully before you begin.

Reviewing
[edit]Diannaa (Talk) will chair this group. The committee aims to inspect articles at random for quality control purposes. If you are interested in participating, please sign up below.
Procedure
[edit]10% of a copy-editing participant's copy-edits should be inspected. Please choose articles at random, and do not inspect articles you have copy-edited yourself. After checking an article, place a {{checked}} mark after the article on the listing and sign your username. If a rough consensus finds a copyedit is not of an acceptable standard, the tag will be re-added and the reviewer will be assessed a penalty of 1,200 words plus the length of the article reviewed. Please direct any questions to Diannaa (Talk).
