Reviewing
GOCE coordinators and other experienced Guild members will carry out random checks to ensure that copy edits are of a satisfactory standard. If you are willing to help with reviewing, please sign up below.

How to record articles you have copy edited:
- Remove any extant {{copyedit}} tags from the article.
- When you sign up, your section is automatically populated with # {{Working}} [[]] () and # {{Completed}} [[]] ():
- Article titles go in wikilinks [[]]. List the article's full title, not an abbreviated version.
- Article word counts go in round brackets (): use this scriptto get the page's word count. Count the words in the version of the article that existed before you started editing. These brackets should not contain anything other than this number.
- Place the article you are editing on the {{Working}} line. Only work on one article at a time. When you've finished your copy edit, change {{Working}} to {{Completed}}.
- Place any comments between the article title and the word count.
- Do not list articles on which you have placed {{GOCEreviewed}} instead of copy editing them, or which needed no copy editing.
- If you want your work checked, you can request this on the blitz talk page.
Properly completed records look like this in the edit window:
- # {{Completed}} [[Dark chocolate]] (yummy!) (1,234)
and like this on the rendered page:
- 1. Completed Dark chocolate (yummy!) (1,234)
