Copy Edit: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre

Hi, I would like, if possible, for The Texas Chain Saw Massacre to be copy-edited, as it's a former FAC and would like to see it reach FA status. Thanks, --EclipseSSD (talk) 19:23, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Images in headings of project page

Can someone remove the images within the headings on the project page, or move them somewhere else? They interfere with my screen reader JAWS because it reads them as the first part of the heading title, so the first heading is read as "Sphere_3D_Light_Blue.JPG/24px-Sphere_3D_Light_Blue Announcements!". If there is no response on this talk page, I'll remove them myself in 24 hours. Graham87 05:39, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed all the images. Frankly I don't find the community-oriented parts of the project interesting, but that's just me. Graham87 13:55, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Project barnstars

That looks great Ling.Nut. Thank you for creating it. --momoricks talk 22:54, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Great Image! I'll try to make another BStar later and use that image. BTW, feel free to change the text in the BStar I previously made, I really wasn't sure what to put there. :P -- $user log (Talk) @ 09:31, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

*wave*

Hi everyone! Just dropping by to say hello again :)

Yes, I've not been on Wikipedia much over the past weeks. I've been extremely busy with a lot going on at home and at college, so I've no choice but to force editing Wikipedia down the priority list. Hope to be active again in a few weeks. Take care and happy editing!

*waving back* I figured you were busy with real life. It's good to see you didn't decide to give Wiki the finger. ;) --momoricks talk 22:57, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

CE: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre

Per the peer review on the article, I would like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre to be copy edited, and cleaned up, ready for nomination as a FA. Thanks, --EclipseSSD (talk) 14:18, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New focus?

Should we, the members of this project, just concentrate on fulfilling c/e requests, rather than trying to reduce the backlog? I mean, let's be honest here...we are never going to get through that backlog in less than two years...and fulfilling specific requests is more helpful to people IMHO. :) —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 14:23, 30 October 2008 (UTC) [reply]

And not all of us are concentrating on the backlog that much either. *looks around guiltily* But there are not that many requests either. So when there are no requests, or if the requests are too big for poor newbies like me (and when we have time) we can get working on the backlogged articles.

Well, I can put in requests myself too. :) About 3! :P Anyway, if anyone wants my help c/e'ing one of those requests, feel free to drop me a note on my talk page...but I'm not going to try that backlog. :) —Ed 17 for President Vote for Ed 14:37, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
