Ludwig subathon GA nomination
Hey there, PerfectSoundWhatever. I noticed the last major changes you've made to Ludwig's subathon were on 27 November, which was 6 days ago. Are you still planning on doing the rest some time in the future? I placed the review on hold for a week on the 25th, but if you need more time to go through the comments, just let me know.

Hello and welcome to our latest newsletter, a quarterly digest of Guild activities since October. Don't forget you can unsubscribe at any time; see below.
Blitz: Our October Copy Editing Blitz focused on July and August 2022 request months; and articles tagged for c/e in December 2021 and January 2022. Seventeen of those who signed up claimed at least one copy-edit, and between them copy-edited forty-six articles. Barnstars awarded are here.
Drive: In the November Backlog Elimination Drive, thirty editors signed up, twenty-two of whom claimed at least one copy-edit. Both target months—December 2021 and January 2022—were cleared, and February was added to the target months. Sixteen requests were copy-edited and 239 articles were removed from the backlog. Barnstars awarded are here.
Blitz: Our seven-day-long December 2022 Copy Editing Blitz begins on 17 December at 00:01 (UTC)*. It will focus on articles tagged for copy-edit in February 2022, and pending requests from September and October. Barnstars awarded will be available here.
Progress report: As of 22:40, 8 December 2022, GOCE copyeditors have processed 357 requests since 1 January, there were seventy-four requests outstanding and the backlog stands at 1,791 articles. We always need skilled copy-editors; please help out if you can.
Election news: Nomination of candidates for the GOCE's Election of Coordinators for the first half of 2023 is open and continues until 23:59 on 15 December. Voting begins at 00:01 on 16 December and closes at 23:59 on 31 December. All editors in good standing (not under ArbCom or community sanctions) are eligible and self-nominations are welcomed. Coordinators serve a six-month term that ends at 23:59 on June 30. If you've thought about helping out at the Guild, please nominate yourself or any editor you consider suitable—with their permission, of course!. It's your Guild and it doesn't coordinate itself.
Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers and best seasonal wishes from your GOCE coordinators, Baffle gab1978, Dhtwiki, Miniapolis, Tenryuu, and Zippybonzo.

On a personal note, I enjoyed learning about this release and the artist's project. Thanks, also for your pleasant attitude during the review. Cheers!shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 08:17, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
@HelpingWorld:Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Sources is a list compiled by WikiProject Video Games, with sources more relevant to that niche. Dexerto is unreliable per the rough consensus in these discussions 1, 2, 3. Maybe start a new discussion at WP:RSN if you disagree. You realize, just because a source is used on other pages doesn't mean its reliable. Wikipedia is covered in unreliable sources. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 17:50, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
When you can't find any other sources, don't include it. The problem is, sources like dexerto release highly frequent (and probably un-fact checked) articles, meaning if we included everything they published, our articles would become bloated and have trivial information. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 17:57, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
