The Beaver County Times reference links are not functioning. I have links to these articles at the following locations if you feel it is beneficial to update.

I've re-linked the first and third references accordingly, but the second link you provided doesn't work, even when I remove the gap in the URL. Could you re-check the filename, and if possible, rename them, replacing any spaces with underscores or hyphens? The renaming isn't strictly necessary, but in the interests of web-friendly links, it would be preferable. Thanks! KaySL (talk) 16:52, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Reference added. I forgot to notify you several days ago that I also updated the other, PDF reference with the corrected URL too. KaySL (talk) 14:52, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I modified and expanded the text in this article. Let me know if there are still problems with it. Best regards, Jean-Pierre —Preceding unsigned comment added by JPLeRouzic (talk • contribs) 17:27, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Hi there. The article still requires a fair bit of work, preferably so that it's not so much a paraphrasing of the original source, plus it needs to conform to the general Wikipedia article layout. I'm going to give it a rewrite either today or tomorrow, though, so if you hold off on any edits to it until then, I think we can make it work as an article! KaySL (talk) 18:00, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Thank you very much! So I stop editing it until a few days. I look forward for the result :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by JPLeRouzic (talk • contribs) 19:26, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. I've completed the rewrite for now; I've temporarily hidden most of the external links, as they need to be properly cited in the article proper, which I will get around to doing soon, probably in the next day or two. I did remove a few pieces of content however, the image included, as it doesn't technically belong in a Wikipedia article on the platform. KaySL (talk) 21:01, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Many thanks for the hard work at editing! It seems to be a wonderful article right now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JPLeRouzic (talk • contribs) 07:31, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

GOCE Newsletter

GOCE backlog elimination drive chart Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors Backlog Elimination Drive! We have now reached the halfway point, and here's what has happened so far. Requests Report - Good news! The number of special requests waiting to be edited has been reduced drastically, with almost all of the remaining items having editors committed to getting them done. Good work, people! Target Report - ɳorɑfʈ's initial target of reducing the backlog of articles for copy edit turned out to be unrealistic insane, so a new target was set: we hope to reduce the to backlog to less than 7,500 items in the queue by the end of the month. The number in the queue was 7,950 as of close of business yesterday. If we "concentrate our firepower" we can wipe out Jan, Feb, and March 2008, meaning the drive will have cleared four months off the backlog queue. Please consider copyediting from one of these months. Rewards Report - We now have some clear leaders on the board in all three Gold Star categories, and many people have qualified for the various barnstars. It is not too late to participate, as it takes just 2,000 words (pre-edit) to qualify for a barnstar! Don't wait! Start participating today. Remember, the ultimate winner is Wikipedia. Notice to Participants - For those who have indicated that you will be working on certain articles on the drive page in your respective tally box, please ensure that you complete these copyedits as soon as possible. Thank you very much for your participation so far! - Coordinator: ɳorɑfʈ Talk!
