GOCE March 2011 backlog elimination drive progress graphs
There were 99 signups for the drive; of these, 70 participated. Interest was high mainly due to a link to our event from the Watchlist page. We had a record-breaking 84 articles listed on the Requests page in March; 11 of these have been promoted to Good article status so far. Several of our recent efforts have received Featured Article status as well, and the GOCE is becoming a solid resource for the Wikipedia community. Many thanks to editors who have been helping out at the Requests page and by copy editing articles from the backlog.
Progress report
Remarkable progress was made in reducing the backlog this month, as we now have fewer than 500 articles remaining from 2009. We are well under the 4,000-article mark for the total number remaining in the queue. Since our backlog drives began in May 2010 with 8,323 articles, we have cleared more than 53% of the backlog. A complete list of results and barnstars awarded can be found here. Barnstars will be distributed over the next week. If you enjoyed participating in our event, you may also like to join the Wikification drives, which are held on alternate months to our drives. Their April drive has started.
Could you help me on the tables in the article, I would like to finish this, but I don't have enough time to complete the entire article. It doesn't help that my electricity was out today. Hopefully it will become GA. --Nascar1996 (talk • contribs) 01:23, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
I would help you but I don't have enough time myself, either. I have to go to bed soon. I may work on it tommorrow. WayneSlam01:24, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
I am a Wikipedian, who is studying the phenomenon on Wikipedia. I need your help to conduct my research on about understanding "Motivation of Wikipedia contributors." I would like to invite you to a short survey. Please give me your valuable time, which estimates only 5 minutes’’’. cooldenny (talk) 17:35, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
re: Cup races
I'll certainly do my best. I was trying to simply give the races pages since I think NASCAR1996 is taking a brief hiatus from wikipediaGaeaman787 (talk) 23:01, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
:) You two are doing very well, but someone please add the infobox to the Aarons' 499 article. Thanks. I probably will be back on here to complete the 600 article. Until then, I'm going to stay semi-active. --Nascar1996 (talk • contribs) 00:38, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
I don't have any special knowledge here, but the current veraion shows <<From the first season, 1997, of the NBA (called the BAA until the merger with the NBL in 1949 . . .>> Fix needed? Jo3sampl (talk) 12:34, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
